There is literally not a more 'Newcastle' move than doing that.

Woah woah woah....we're not that extravagant. Freegle is a better bet

Good piece by Adam Bate on Skysports app calling him out on everything

So as usual were making the opposition look like prime Barcelona

Was gutted we didn't keep him after seeing him in preseason looking like a world beater, then he fluffed his first chance in a league game Sheff We'd and was never the same again. Although Dalglish didn't help by making him main striker . His career after us shows how badly we used him

Masters and the PL will want as much money as they can get...if they can get more by allowing PIF to take us over than they would be pandering to 'Top' 6 they won't just allow but will encourage. Reputations fade very quickly when there's no success or drama attached . Arsenal are rapidly becoming just another team in the league, Chelsea are becoming a playboy hobby that isn't working out so much now. Man Utd remain interesting at the moment because of their fairly recent successes, but a few more years without a title and Asia will forget them City will remain relevant as long as Guardiola is there, but where do they go from there? There's not a better management name around and available at present. Painfully...Leicester are the way forward...can see them dumping Arsenal or Chelsea out of the 'Top 6', Got a brilliant mix of planning and ambition beyond just raking in the pounds

Our monitoring is off the scale. Won't happen overnight, it's work in progress

Is this a commonly shared opinion? I can't say I am in agreement Wasn't pretty or particularly pleasant, but he was well on target to keep us up. Did the basics enough to get some results that weren't total flukes unlike Bruce where players cant pass to each other if they're ahead of them on the pitch or more than 5 feet away

Can just see Bein Sports as our main shirt sponsor now Now that would be a massive f**k you to the 'top 6', and would involve PL showing some backbone

More likely we'd look at dragging Andreas Andersson out of retirement

So what's the hidden clues in this tweet?

As utterly abysmal as all of the are/were, none of them served up the dire football Bruce puts out... Don't remember the team being consistently bottom of every attacking metric for any of the barring Bruce. Yes there were dire performances, yes there were humiliating defeats to shocking teams, but it was never seemed to be so consistently 'let the other team have the ball all the time and hope we can get a counter attack' Pardew had the players to bail him out McLaren had the right idea, but not the backbone to carry it out Carver was just an accident waiting to happen from the start Kinnear was an embarrassment from start to finish, but was picking up points. Not with great football, but still more entertaining than Bruceball. Plus there was always the cringy amusement that he might just have a sweary rant every now and then. Yes his Simon Bird rant looking back was a huge embarrassment, but still have the feeling that the intention was to build a siege mentality...just 20 years behind the times

If BEIN is no longer an obstacle, the PL will just see the ££££ flashing and probably push a takeover

Par for the course with this club

This is like asking what kind of s**t sandwich would you like to eat....horse, dog, cat, human, monkey... Some might be less appealing, but at the end of the day it's still a s**t sandwich

No room for optimism in this thread

Maybe maybe not, but he's as vital to Leicester as Shearer was to us. It'll be a miracle if they can replace him at the first attempt. 15 years and counting and we've never got anywhere near having a player of so much importance to the team. A player that the other team sees on the team list and thinks "s**t, this isn't going to be an easy game", a player that other players have a knot in their stomach going up against, a player that can win the on pitch battle before stepping foot on the field.

Help us Rafa Benitez....you're our only hope

Post your grimness thoughts

What's Alex Bruce up to these days? Had a knack of showing up at his dad's club.

Embarrassing defeat written all over this one 3-0 Toney Hattrick, sub 40% possession, 4 shots, 1 on target Just need excuse bingo: Don't want to make excuses... Covid Unhelpful media reports of dressing room unrest Tough game against Fulham Brentford are a really good side Can't change overnight The lad had a point to prove Rested players for some tough games over xmas Science

Maybe Rob Lee could be tempted out if retirement. Would still be a massive improvement on this lot

Too spirit crushing to watch. How many teams can go from a corner back to the keeper within 3 seconds? Usually just seen in cup matches where the League 2 team is hanging on to a lead against a PL team, but it seems to be matter of course for this lot.

Fumaca/ Hamilton/Bassedas was pretty grim Backed up with Crawford/McClen/Elliot

Certainly did give and encourage the impression he had inside information from someone actually involved, not some random individual from another forum '
