Just know the Chronicle will do a piece on his time and "rise" at the club.

Suarez and Salah please. Leave Kane if we're feeling generous/Messi fancies warming the bench.

Cause he knows Newcastle fans will bite.

Bless you.

Rafa is both a nice bloke and a top quality manager. Didn't support the club as a boy though so that puts him behind Bruce.

Slightly concerned that the new owners criteria for a new manager seems to be the quality of the manager, rather than how much of a "nice" bloke they are and which team their father supported.

Class from HBA. Worrying how far forward he was though. Should've been in his own half tracking Stoke's attackers incase they hit us on the counter. But that's HBA for you, sheer laziness.

He'd happily go there as well. This coming after he's been made out to be some sort of alpha Geordie.

Rafa - Manager Poch - Assistant manager Klopp - Director of football

Good option off the bench.

In simple terms? Cans.

It'll be full of "regrets". "I wish we did this differently", "I wish I could've been the owner to see us lift a cup again" etc etc. You'll get the likes of Richard Keys and Adrian Durham going on about what a shame it is to see such a good businessman man like Ashley leaving the league after doing a fantastic job up there.

So the Mexicans still have time to possibly swoop in?

Can we tighten up the forum sign up process? Make new members watch every match under Bruce before their accounts are verified. Don't want the forum crashing under the strain of glory seekers signing up after winning the treble next season.

Looking forward to the media making out that it's a disgrace how the new owners have treated him. Completely ignoring the manner in which he left Sheff United.

I’d imagine it’s already done and this is the next step. One final push and it’s out. I'm unsure about that, work isn't going on as normal currently. I’m inclined to think the hard work is done, and it’s all formalities now. If PL clearance has been done and the buyer have now decided to submit the official deposit before purchase then you’d think a fee is agreed and it’s a case of formalities. All key decisions have been made. That’s how I look at it anyway. That's true, but haven't their been sale's agreed and setup previously in the past then fail at this stage, although has anyone ever failed that test. Lots of RB and pcp all over the documents. Imo they will front the directors test, pass, then pif come on board as an investor. As for failing, aye, it’s bollocks isn’t it? This is the part for me that’s got me going... People that went to the school of hard knocks really need to stop trying to decipher legal documents. They're reading standard clauses as if they're already in effect.

That’s quite a range. Well so far my source has said it might, or might not happen so I've got no reason to doubt him on this either.

Announced this Friday I reckon. Possibly next Friday or the one after that.

Heard it could possibly happen but it depends on several factors. That's all I can say.

The 15yr old that makes the Premier Leagues compilation videos for YouTube. Every single one has the same shit EDM music you'd find in a Call of Duty '$ick Skillz' montage.

There's been nothing but silence from both sides during every potential takeover.

I'm sure we'll get an update just in time to hit the Sunday papers.
