We’ve lost 4 out of last five, six out of last 15, 8 out of the 25 league games since football began. We’ve won one of the last five, 7 of last 15, and 12 of last 25. That should leave 5 draws overall. None of which means anything, but 1-1 it is!

Quick, start searching now! You’ve lost perspective and possibly your rationality.

I see it as being more a case of Ashley not being emotionally invested (anymore), I.e. he really doesn’t care (if he ever did) about anything other than the balance sheet, and him having a command and control style of management. It’s his way or the highway, I think. Which makes other cliches seem relevant: cutting off his nose to spite his face and before setting out on a journey of revenge dig two graves.

Add to this, they’ve been beaten to the punch re crocking Lejeune, and they won’t know what’s hit them/which way is up...

Exactly this. Look at when #IfRafaGoesWeGo kicked off. Muto and Schar signed within 48 hours of each other. Really? Do you really believe there's a link?

Would you like to ride a unicycle to John O'Groats or a Shetland Pony... Is there a third option?

Once the Mitro deal goes through; Brighton = £54m Fulham = £52m Huddersfield = £35m Wolves = £30m Cardiff = £28m NUFC = MINUS £24m Minus £28m, innit? War chest territory. Two under the radar real 'rock star' (Rondon, highlights... FFS) signings on deadline day. One of whom brought back from Portugal, taking outlay to £60m actually spent. Ahhh. To live is to dream.

Really wish him well. Loved his passion, commitment and bond with the fans/area. I'll be deeply shocked if he scores more than ten though.

me too. Ignoring the extreme ends of the name calling 'debate' over Ayoze, also really pleased to have an option, if indeed Muto is an option to cover that role. Ayoze has yet to put in a convincing full season, or anything like it. Some good patches and great touches, but we need more, especially playing the Rafa Way.

Tak tent young ‘Belfast Girl’. What a great experience

Duzza! wtf. Do you mean Ms. Benetiz is at Durham??

That’d do for me! (Still want Bas Dost though...).

... really think so?

What did he say that was misinterpreted? Sieg heil (deserves some appreciation)

Had to check. NEVER would have got the other two.

If he’s never done it before, seems massively unlikely he is going to achieve it in the Premier League.

Put that in your pipe... Harry Kane! You can’t crock him again! Oh, wait...

Yep. I like the idea of being big(ger) in Japan. Plus there’s a market for Donnay socks to be exploited.

Newcastle United transfer: debacle? Fiasco? Farce? Shambles? Bluff? So many words; so little activity.

63.7% full is highest attendance of season. 50.2% full as lowest league attendance (except it was 10.4.18, not 4.10.17). Ouch.

Remember, remember old Chancel Mbemba. Farewell fella

Bit judgemental. Who put you in charge of the ‘How to be a Fan’ rulebook? And our fans a laughing stock? To who and how do you know?

Which cloobs would do their recruitment that way?

Observation rather than criticism. Short career and all that, plus his earning potential is about to half. Unless he has a storming season.
