Exactly, it could be complete bollocks and it sounded like it when I read it, but then Bruce came out and said that, so now I’m here.

I’ve already given you the name of the forum...

Not as big as this place which is full of cunts It’s miles bigger than this place and is completely full of cunts and cliques, but it is rare that a fan from another club comes to your club’s clique thread and tells you something that none of the other ITK wannabes in the Newcastle clique know and have the manager come out a week later and semi-confirm it in an interview. I have absolutely no way of verifying anything that this person said other than what has left Bruce’s mouth in the near-past.

Where were these rumours? A fan of another club came into our official thread on a closed forum to tell us some story about Ashley, the new owners, Poch and Bruce all being in on the situation. It was vague and waffle but essentially he said that Ashley and the new owners and Poch are moving, have met and discussed (in the lasts few weeks), and that Bruce knew it. As I says, I wrote it off as bollocks but Bruce coming out and saying that a week later?

Rumours abounded last week that Ashley and co had met with Poch and Bruce knew it, I wrote it off as bollocks but now I believe

What’s up with these like? Has someone gone round and shot all their dogs before kickoff? Ludicrous performance

Fascinating stuff on this lads browser

Hope we murder them after that, double figures or go home

Love Almiron me

Joelinton leaving that is the worst thing I’ve ever seen, and I’m a war child

His job is to run around and put effort in on Shelley’s behalf with an eye to getting the odd goal. Absolutely morbid to watch as a footballer but has already proved he can be useful in a Kevin Nolan special needs sort of way.

Watching darlow come for the ball is like holding a fart in on a long drive

Anyone else up for a bit of ritual murder/suicide just so we don’t need to hear about this anymore

Do yourselves a favour and stop thinking this has any life to it. Accept the cold sweet embrace of death and never get excited for anything ever again, it is the only way to survive this madness.

You’re absolutely off your lips if your think the Premier League’s brand is majorly affected by any of this, literally the only people who give a fuck about this happening are the Saudis and us, everyone else is dead against it for obvious reasons beginning with the actual nasty craic related to dealing with the Saudis up to being scared of us being the richest club in the universe. From what I can see the only way to get some kind of resolution is pressure from parliament or the courts, the league are not going to pass this unless they’re told to and nobody is going to tell them to so we might as well pack up and go home before we all completely lose our minds. The only thing giving this any life whatsoever is the possibility that Ashley has some legal leverage over them now, that he feels slighted or is desperate because the money is already allocated elsewhere. Once he no longer has much skin the game we are truly fucked, mackem style fucked.

This is spiritual torture of the sort that the Spanish Inquisition couldn’t hope to muster.

I’m choosing to believe Keyes because I think he only told us about it to get a bit of attention and a half chance to claim he was right

In all the madness of this my favourite so far has to be the PL counting how many people are watching streams in Saudi Arabia

He’s surprised me a lot, he is far stronger than he has any right to be, he doesn’t waste possession and rarely gives the ball away, runs all day and isn’t scared to stick a leg in. And when it matters he’s picking the right option more often than not, and I was led to believe he was a headless chicken.

Total and utter baller this kid, spend the billions required to put good players around him and we’re off to the races

Elliot was better than Darlow imo

It’s actually happening. We’re going to be richer than anyone else by a ludicrous margin. It is beyond anyone’s wildest dreams.

I think football journalists are on a lower rung of the ladder of existence than pond life, but fucking around with people’s jobs because they want to see a different thing in the football from you is unfathomably dumb.

The saga to end all sagas this. Absolutely primed for ultimate fuckery yet I cannot stem the hope.

Yedlin is absolutely fine imo, certainly better than serial bombscares like krafth and manquillo
