  1. So there is not even a 0.001% chance that it could fall through? OK then. This is exceedingly tedious.
  2. Exactly this! One of the worst full backs I've seen at Newcastle. This forum is terrible for this sort of exaggerated bollocks It's the worst website in the world for it.
  3. One of our essential players during the Championship season and looked really good the first half of that first season back up. Fell off after that. Didn’t it come out that he played most of last season with a nagging injury as well? Time for him to move on though. Won’t ever be a top-half Premier League player but his speed alone makes him dangerous and will give him plenty of options in other leagues. Also just a good dude with a great attitude, which was nice after putting up with some of the utter shitheads who’ve played for us in recent years.
  4. What an utterly useless comparison. That RafaFacts twitter account is operated by one of the internet's weirdest specimens. Absolutely love Rafa and would welcome him back with open arms, but can't help but think we should be looking for a completely fresh start. Its surely ran by that weirdo that used to post on here and hates Eddie Howe? Gallowgate End. Dissipated like a fart in the wind.
  5. Hate that collar, but lush otherwise.
  6. Unless he’s got billions of dollars squirreled away somewhere, he definitely doesn’t struck me as “very wealthy even for an American” or whatever.
  7. Grim reading, but important.
  8. It’s Rafa for me. Setting aside the emotional aspect of having him back, it makes sense for the club to re-hire the guy who already knows the club, has most of “his” players still on the books, and has a clear vision for the future.
  9. Been asked and answered numerous times over the past two weeks. Next.
  10. You have to admit it’d be darkly hilarious if the sale fell through after 216 pages of this guff.
  11. So you would protest £60 Billion investment in Britain because it comes from the Saudis yes or no ? No, I wouldn’t. But I’m also not a citizen of the UK and don’t live there. You’re also still missing the point.
  12. I don’t care what you do, but it’s incorrect to conclude that you *have to* simply roll over and accept Saudi investment as either an inevitably or a positive thing if you’re morally opposed to it.
  13. Don't feel I need educated but when this was all announced I'll admit I got pretty excited by it all, started thinking up wild s*** that could be our reality now! But then you think about it more, and think about the links we may have to such a f***ing abhorrent state and it's definitely not something any fan can possibly want, regardless of the wealth etc. I wish I could be cut and dry with the matter like yourself and others you met, but it does sit a little uneasy on me. Problem is, I don't practice this in every single aspect of life and thus I feel really hypocritical My justification is pretty simplistic if this country is prepared to accept 60 billion of Saudi investment, why should we feel duty bound to make a stand regarding this. It’s the modern world unfortunately why should we suffer more pain just keep Gary Kasparov and co sleeping easy at night. Like I say maybe simplistic and uneducated, but I’d guess it’s the majority of fans view on this. You don’t have to accept that either.
  14. Well that’s simply not true.
  15. We could, you know, ignore what fans of other clubs say about us on the internet.
  16. You’ve met him? ...no? Just seemed like you knew him well nah I just pass judgment from my couch on the other side of the world.
  17. This Wraith guy is an absolute weapon. King of the knuckle-dragging morons.
