Jesus fucking christ, the BBC just reporting with a headline as if they haven't been proven to be fantasists (only mentioning the doubts further down the article) They aren't buying the club, and I'd also be fucking amazed if Staveley ever purchases this club fwiw.

I hear you but the difference now is a third party monitoring results. An earlier than usual panic and manager replacement is more possible than in previous years What third party? Are we still pretending that Staveley is going to buy the club? Wake up. Why not? Do you know something that we don't? By we I mean the rest of the world. Well the rest of the world knows that they have walked away. Unless you know better?

I'm starting to think Mike Ashley isn't a good fit as an owner. This. The manager is irrelevant, although Rod will never see the bigger picture here.

This. So much this. I don't even know if he scored or missed this penalty as I've been out. Doesn't matter either way.

Not watching but :lol:

They're helping in a way, as he would've been hounded to shit by now if fans had been in. I don't believe this one bit. Surely he'd be getting massive abuse? We haven't played well for a year. The fans never gave Pardew massive abuse and his squad produce the same horrible football for 5 years bar one season where everything lucked out. The majority went even further than that and got pissed off with the fans that did want to show their displeasure if I remember correctly.

Exactly my thoughts.

Complete nonsense as always, especially coming from someone who doesn't practice any of what you've just tried, unsuccessfully, to espouse.

The commentator even said "Im not sure if that's good forward play or bad defending... (after seeing replay) its really bad defending" and he was correct. I understand people want him to be a massive success, but its clutching at straws really.

Looks happy enough to still own the club there like.

Oh my :lol:

These stupid rules actively encourage caveman PFM football. Hoof it into the box and aim for a knockdown into an arm. Andy being the best practitioner of this new art of course. Fucking grim.

Pulled back for a foul, which led to the free kick, that led to the penalty. Man of the match. Give it up.

The idiots claiming VAR would be against us the season as the PL hates us can at least stop now though eh PL football is a joke. Games ruined.

Bullshit.

Dont deserve a penalty.

Darlow had to make 3 saves inside the first 10 mins. Really impressed with Darlow so far He's been good (from the little I've actually watched of the first half), always got an error in him though. Also, only a mentalist would play him over Dubravka once fit again...which Bruce will undoubtedly do

Looking at him, he’s lucky to be alive

Bruce's luck is continuing by the looks of things. Can't believe Spurs aren't out of sight already.

I was going to suggest this but feared the backlash it would receive if it was me

It's actually funny now how personal Kaka seems to take any comments not praising this lad like.

I've passed through the stage of wanting the club to lose every game as I did last season, and just cannot bring myself to care at all this season. The Ashley effect.
