Fair play to him, he was fantastic.

Yeah, strangely the other interested parties (didn’t happen) just vanished. It’s almost like it was bullshit all along. It was always going to play out like this. It's straight out of the Ashley book. It's still hard to believe how many fell for it again though. Fell for what exactly? The buyers are, like Staveley, genuinely trying to buy the club. Ashley as always, has been the sticking point, and I don't think many people out there thought it was going to be otherwise.

Was at my lads football training this morning and there was only 2 kids out of the 90 odd there wearing the new top, fucking 2.....in days gone by, every other kid would be wearing it. Either the boycott is working really well, or we're losing a whole generation of supporters due to Ashley's cuntishness.

Aye, it's been taken over by the folk who own the Brandling Villa in South Gosforth. As local boozers go, it looks truly magnificent.

Now that my wife has finished her teaching degree, the kids are old enough to entertain themselves, and the magnificent new Punch Bowl is set to reopen this week, it's going to be Saturday/Sunday afternoon sessions in the pub for me. Marvelous. Will be up for any demos at SJP or in town though.

I would doff my cap to Ashley for the sheer shithousery of that, should it happen.

Imagine contemplating paying a sizeable compensation fee for those three utter failures. Looking like it would have been cheaper for them to keep Benitez.

Hughes, Moyes, O'Neill, Sherwood, Pearce.......there's any number of desperate dossers out there who would take the job.

Is this a wind up? In what way? I'm just questioning why they didn't go for Hughton given that he was available for nowt? Because he’d robably tell them to f*** off It didn't stop them with Allardyce. If you think Allardyce is like Hughton then you’re mental WTF you talking about? I haven't suggested anything of the sort, I just said I'm surprised they didn't go for Hughton because he was available......knowing how utterly shameless they are.

Is this a wind up? In what way? I'm just questioning why they didn't go for Hughton given that he was available for nowt? Because there is zero chance of him saying yes after Ashley shat on him, don't you remember? Howay man They approached Fat Sam who was also sacked. What's the difference? Sam was sacked, Hughton was f***ed over by fatty and Pardew. I don't think it would bother these shameless cunts who they approached in all honesty. Just thought they might have explored the cheaper option.

I think you and a few other people are in for a rude awakening when you find out there is enough people who actually attend games who will be happy to give local Bruce a fair chance. I'm under no illusions what some of our fans are like, thanks very much.

Not that it make much difference in the grand scheme of things, but surely Hughton would have been the better option? Well liked here and available for nowt, would have made much more sense.

Newcastle keen on Crouch. NUFC are understood to be interested in the veteran, gangly front man, who would be available on a free transfer this summer, and are monitoring the situation. While the signing would not excite the Geordie faithful, it would however give the team much needed options up front, and also be within owner Mike Ashley's strict operating budget.

Watch Ashley give him £100M to spunk on players as well. I'm at the point now where I actually think, in terms of pissing people off & getting them to protest, this is actually a good appointment.

Hahahaha

First and last line in that first list should've been swapped. Pandering straight away to the #notdaregime crew removes some of the fizzle. It's trying to bridge the divide, I totally understand and respect what they are doing there. It's Us Vs Ashley, not Us vs Us vs Ashley. Yep, definitely the right way to go about it.......the 'you're part of the problem' (however true it may be), only gets people's backs up and makes them less inclined to boycott.

I've met him a couple of times at the Magpie Group meetings and he always seemed canny enough....not sure what's happened to him lately, but he's turned into a right bitter arsehole.

Bruce would be beyond amazing......especially for all the Rafa haters/support tha team not tha rejeeeem melts. Have it you cunts.

I think old Midhat is going to rue the day he fucked with our hopes.

Landed at the airport 10 mins ago. Meeting Redfearn to discuss his 8 year contract.

He told them he wasn't going to accept their offer, in what way is that saying nothing? Any succession plan was up got them to sort out.

Nolan has the face of a man who would literally say anything for his next drink.
