Feel free to set me straight but does Rafa even have to give a decision? The 10 games are up he is free to leave as much as Newcastle are free to get rid... Couldn't he just leave it like that?

:thup: And then you get class responses like that ^^ because you're not lapping up the most recent baseless headlines in the Daily f***ing Mail. edit: npw AImed at my response by any chance?

Bad day?

Ha! Who are the clubs Lawyers? Kobayashi?

It'll be legal stuff I expect. Rafa quite rightly wants everything in writing. Bloody right too! Rafa is in a position to pretty much demand what he wants within reason and if he has any idea at all about whats happened at the club in the last 10 years or so then its no surprise that he wants the legal shit in requests in writing to cover his arse.

Wasn't that Twelve Monkeys?

Agree, Also reckon there might be something in there about the option to be allowed to talk to clubs in the Top Tier of their leagues if they come a knocking..... and a pack of 5 white dunlop trainer socks

Question for you all: Rafa comes out and says he is staying and it is because of Mike Ashley, TheClub then get promoted to the premier league at the first time of asking and then finish 5th the next season... What will your view on Ashley be then?

I did the same with Colback and Sayloy except Sissoko is the one for me, He has been absolute toilet this season andI just cant bear watching the result of someone passing the ball to him. The sooner he fucks off the better IMO

whooooooo

Agree with this, It is proven that chants against the 'perpetrators' doesn't do shit. Everyone can boycott Sports Direct all they want, but it is not going to stop all the chavs from everywhere else in the country getting their cheap Adidas Tracksuits bottoms and 5 pairs of socks for a tenner.. The club finally has a decent manager at the helm and, despite relegation which absolutely sucks arse, there is some hope that this guy will remain in the hotseat to bring the club back into premiership and potentially make the club as great as it once was. The foundations are there in terms of a great Stadium, great passionate fans and an eventful history. No matter how much people hate some of the powers within the club, it is time to get behind the club and get them to do the right thing in keeping this manager here as I am confident that this could be the start of something very special if he stays!

my Facebook memories bought up this status from 4 years ago.... "All that money spent and city only JUST won the league.... Oh well , great season of football, Pardew for manager of the year" I can't even begin to talk about how much 'Wrong' there is in that status given where we are now!

That fear makes no sense. We can't get on the back of the man ultimately responsible because he may go on to degrade the club. He's done it anyway and will do when he leaves. We just need to speed that up somehow and take our medicine. Keep pinning criticism on the minions for a greater fear is an exercise in futility. and these actions will continue to make people not want to go anywhere near the club! I have been pretty much resigned to the club being relegated this season, so this is no surprise to me. What did surprise me was Rafas appointment, I would have thought that someone of his calibre would want nothing to do with a club that has so many issues yet he did. I just hope that Fans / Chairmans / Scouts actions do not make the club a no go zone for everyone,

There is no denying that Ashleys actions previously have cost the club dearly, that I will admit, but once again, we have had a shit season (and one where Ashley has opened his wallet and proceeded to have 'nothing' to do with the club this season), we have got relegated. Yes, maybe people should blame him for appointing yet another yes man in Charnley but I fear that all the time that the fans are on Ashleys back, he is never going to go anwhere because he know it will hurt the fans more if he stays and what does he honestly have to lose apart from some 'free' advertising...

Had a feeling that this specific thread would be top of the lost this morning. Fans are not happy when the club doesnt spend, the fans are not happy when the club Does spend. bla bla fucking blah. Gets kind of boring after a while...

fuckin creased reading this thread

Nervous as hell about this match

Titus Bramble

Anyone in the crowd, near to pardew with a 50p coin in their pocket fancy doing me a favour?

Nothing like the fans getting behind the team...

1-2 loss wiith Shelvey scoring the winning goal for Swansea

Sissoko has offered us nothing this season and continues to do so in this match

Ketsbaia MKII perhaps?

Whilst I will never be Ashleys biggest fan. If he realy has divorced himself from the 'Day to day' stuff at the club, then maybe I am willing to see how things go. Apart from the whole relegation thing this season, there have been changes compared to previous seasons (probably premier league tv money orientated) and i would certainly be interested in seeing what happens if/when we are playing in the Premier league next season. If we get relegated, I do fear that it may turn to s***...

Mitrovic an 8. Sissoko 6.5? He was toilet..... At Best!
