You hardly see a kid in a Toon Top these days. A lost generation.

No - cover the stadium with anti-sd logos. Remove the benefit he sees in having the club.

Takeover stone dead according to Twitter

That guy saying he WILL quit pretty much confirms it though. End of season at best. Who the hell would want to manage or play for us after this?

Unfortunately it is perfect logic. Now we're in the Premier League, we're the perfect advertising board for Sports Direct which goes worldwide and costs nothing. It funds itself. Which is why coming back up was the worst thing. We need to go down down down before we shake this cunt off. Maybe a 'Sports Direct is shite' banner being shown on TV would help?

So we quit the leagues and only do kick-abouts - do you still show unwavering support?

Is Moncur still on the 'board'? There's a talk-in coming up soon....

I'm not asking why you love the Toon - but surely there is a requirement that the club competes and tries? If we quit the league structure and just did kick-about every week surely nobody would go? There IS a line - and a requirement - *somewhere*.

We were offered Messi on a free but Ashley declined because his wages demands of £1 were deemed excessive.

Well ?

When January happened and then this Barnes c**t turned up, we all knew. The best we can hope for now is that there *is* some sort of sale in the offing and that's why the spend is so low. Sees straw passing by..

Fulham now offering 18m for Gayle

The only win - for all of us - is Rafa walking.

He's mentally ill.

Maybe his confidence is shot BECAUSE he's been told he'll be sold?

If the fat cunt wasn't stiffing Rafa there wouldn't be a story.

If Rafa goes, it's the last time anything other than a Yes Man gets appointed under Ashley. I took the Bairn to see Morpeth Town play last week - that way is the future now, I think - to avoid the inevitable hurt when the hope is taken away by Fatman and Thumbheed.

Former England defender Martin Keown on Match of the Day 2 Extra: "It's gone from bad to worse. I know Bilic was talking about the positives after the Southampton game but **losing against Newcastle, another team in big trouble themselves** there are a lot of question marks."

If the club is telling the manager to shut up using the media and the manager has now stopped talking of the club as being a long term project, then we need to stop kidding ourselves. Rafa will see the Season out - but that'll be it.

The Albert song would fit his name.

Lets just put this into context. We have a club owner, using his own PR firm to spin AGAINST the world-renowned manager in his employ who got the team promoted last season.

I disagree - it's the times when he has seen the risk to his investment from relegation that has HAS allowed investment. It's because he lets it worry him. Bouncing back up twice is almost the worst thing we could have done. If we'd stayed down in 2009 he'd be gone by now.
