I see Willian has rejected Chelsea's latest contract offer, his agent is Kia Joorabchian, so pretty much guaranteed he ends up at Arsenal

Interesting. Roma fans have turned on him, but from the article below it sounds like he's got some sense and isn't completely clueless. Would be a decent compromise to this entire debacle. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/who-james-pallotta-billionaire-friend-17588465 Would rather trust the fans, a newspaper could easily spin Ashley to be a decent owner

Douglas, deary me, now we should question everything apparently, despite his lot baiting the fans with every bombastic headline going throughout this entire saga and doubling-down defending it because "it all goes in the live blog" Suppose it's an easier line to take than "I knew absolutely fuck all about what was happening for the last 17 weeks"

Edwards backtracking on Mauriss, absolutely shameless

Didn't BEIN Sports Chief Executive actually write to all Premier League clubs urging them to block the takeover back in April?

Right decision for all parties, wonder if Bournemouth will go for the Wigan manager who just resigned

I don't think any really, perhaps West Brom and the play off winners will? On that note, I was also reading some articles in regards to Brighton and their recruitment, the stated aim is to establish themselves within the top 10, may be unlikely, but at least they're offering hope to fans rather than being content with a middling status quo

Here's a 'superfan' in action, bet you any money you turn up at St James every week, chant "you fat cockney bastard", "we hate Sunderland" in your new replica shirt, then sit in silence for the rest of the match, before finally booing the players off when we lose Same fan who probably scoffs at any of the boycotts or protests Nee wonder other fanbases think we're a joke, because there's tits like you who swallow the 'support the team, not the regime' narrative, blinded to the wider picture of gross neglect of Newcastle United as a sporting and social institution Liverpool (under Hicks and Gillett), Rangers and Blackpool will be mighty relieved their fanbases aren't filled with fools like you, otherwise they'd all still be fucked Don’t forget singing ‘We’re shit and we’re sick of it’ of course.

Thick as fuck

Do we even know it's just about money for him too? It's more likely that he's lost confidence in the viability of his development pathway, with Bentaleb (an appalling player) and a CB played ahead of him. He's only had one start all 2020.

So bleak knowing this sentiment will be rampant among our fanbase Scapegoating the young, local lad for being 'greedy', instead of holding the ruinous regime to account

Who do we think will be the first journo / media figure to plea with the fanbase to "support the team", "the lads need your support more than ever!" etc. Pete Graves for me

Complete vultures mate, it's a disgrace how they shamelessly string fans along Influential NUFC accounts trying to cash in on manufactured hope for clicks The same accounts who try and present this 'superfan' image

Pete shamelessly stringing the fans along again I see

Very impressed by the letter sent to Masters, the contempt in his generic response is shocking

They’ve all been at it. They’re delighted but can’t help but get a sly dig in too because at the end of the day Newcastle as a city and a club mattters not a jot to them or their existence. It's absolutely maddening, the sneering tone as they deliver a poorly-informed conclusion of Newcastle and the region as a whole is unreal.

Can't fucking stand patronizing remarks like this mind: Aye it's not like this has been the only serious bidder in 13 years, the lack of knowledge on the inner machinations of the club is so poor

That Caulkin piece with Staveley is absolute rubbish mind, his reputation has taken a battering for me through this all saga

The comments on the various The Athletic articles are mental, seems to be one of the last few places with absolutely no moderation

Adam Armstrong

A completely meaningless soundbite considering that's never going to happen

"Do you want to be the richest club in the world?" "I can't heeeear you! I said, do you want to eb the richest club in the world?" :lol:

Caulkin can fuck off with this honestly

Could have done without that last bullet point
