  1. Caulkin is some journalist, like. He's probably the most clicked of them all. Trusted, specifically, because he's never said anything. 21st century journalism at it's finest.
  2. Isn't that the way they've always wanted it? Football on every day?
  3. I think the issue is people asking the same questions over and over again. There's only so many times you can answer. Has he only just discovered Twitter and is getting the hang of it?
  4. I can afford a gender reassignment, doesn't mean I should have one. I could spend it on penis enlargement.
  5. Dragged out of the dark ages? By Keith Allen?
  6. I jst scroll down the page to see if there are any tweets embeded. If there is, I stop to read what its about. If not, fuck it I go to the next page. This is the way How did you both find that post, then? Was the most recent post when I went on Cluck the new button This means the last post you read was the one previous. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
  7. Nah, shows a complete lack of decency in the current situation to say something like that. You know that most likely there are people here struggling financially who could use the money yet you decide to write that instead of just keeping your opinions to yourself. Err, it was ManDoon making the comment not me, I'm saying why some of us can't stand sections of our support. And yeah, keep talking about 'decency' in a thread where everyone's frothing at the gash for their football club to be owned by baby bombers. My heart bleeds. I was only quoting you because you were defending him. The "you" was still directed to ManDoon if that wasnt clear. I have no idea what the rest of your post has to do with the original comment or mine. The rest of the post is implying that no one desperate for the club to be owned by the Saudi's is in any position to tell others what is and isn't decent. Not saying you're one of the former in this case, but those clapping are. I for one can't wait for my club to be owned by mass murdering baby bombers, it's been my number one criteria for years. I thought he'd said baby boomers. Didn't make sense, at all.
  8. Is this where we are, as a specie, daily updates that nothing has changed? And that's probably somebody's job, that they earn money for.
  9. Tell me what's funny then Well, for starters people have said "If it's not this week, it's time to worry" for about the last 4 weeks. For what it's worth, I think there are clearly issues holding this up or it would be through by now. I don't think we need to wait until the end of this or any other week to see that. Aye, but this is Godzilla we're talking about.
  10. So is my next shit. If it doesn't happen tomorrow, I'd start worrying.
  11. Of course. We can overlook the genocide, and murder of journalists, but we have to draw the line at broadcasting rights.

    Euro 96

    Waddle hitting the post in '90 comes close. Not as dramatic as it was over in a split second, and the history of penalty shoot outs hadn't yet developed.
  13. He didn’t say that - he did say that there must have been some kind of problem for it to take so long, but because it hasn’t happened yet doesn’t mean to say it won’t. He didn’t pretend to know anything more than us and I agreed when he said it has became so unbearable because of the false deadlines put on it by journalists and so called ITK’s. ... yeah, like a global pandemic, the full shutdown of all professional sport, and then the need to restart the nation's football leagues. Just one of the many contributors to the media shit-storm who know absolutely nothing, have no in-the-know contacts to exploit, and they just do wind-up pieces to try and remain relevant. Lols
  14. If they issue truncheons that are 2m long, aye. Should just give them rifles. The people that gather like this are the same rectangles that spread the disease and we would be better off without them. I was joking. But I sense you're being serious.
  15. I reckon we stand a chance, that Carroll fella could be a handful for them. Too true! Hopefully he can get 1 or 2 today. I reckon he'll link up well with that xisco.
  16. If they issue truncheons that are 2m long, aye.
  17. Absolute nonsense thread. Things like this shouldn't just be accepted and rushed through just to help the mental health of Newcastle fans Absolute nonsense post. No it wont change nowt and they won't be concerned about nufc fans mental health, but they should be concerned with an owner taking fans money for no reason and not giving them any clue about whats going on. I understand your reasons behind not wanting it to happen etc but not everything the 'pro takeover fans' say is bollocks. That lads most definitely bringing to light a few things that need to be said with regards to staff and refunds. They should be concerned with the current c*** of an owner taking the p*ss out of fans and staff. 100%. This is nowt to do with being anti or pro the takeover. Takeovers of companies take time , you can't just rush things through especially when possibly important information has just come to light, regarding the piracy thing. If they give a timeline of say 2 weeks, then what if more information becomes available in 13 days time that could affect the decision? But you are anti-takeover by PIF, let's get that out there just to clarify. I don't think anybody needs that clarified but thanks anyway have you ever been involved with an acquisition of a company? I have and right now, if this was not a football club company, legally following everything that has passed to this point in terms of the sale/purchase of what is a legal fully registered and recognised trading business enterprise, this is a done deal. No-one can pull out, even if monies owed to all parties were still to be transferred to close any holding account and therefore financially complete the deal at each end, the legal fact of the matter is that again, as of now, as of how far along this is, it’s a done deal. It’s a done deal because the buyer’s money has been paid (as per whatever any agreements exist between the two etc.) into an account, and that money is locked in now. Again the buyer can’t just withdraw that money and the seller can’t just return it or not accept it. Not unless both mutually agree to terminate everything and both sides would have to do that, one or the other cannot just pull out, they would face legal proceedings which for example if Ashley decided to withdraw, could see him lose the business full stop and even pay them the actual agreed price to get out of it. Likewise the seller could end up having to pay up the full agreed price as compensation and end up with nothing. Of course no-one knows the stipulations and clauses in any detail which could see both seller or buyer allowed to break off from the deal mutually or forego a security deposit etc. If this was a none football club business, however, even without the transfer of funds at the end of all parties, it would to all intents and purposes be a done deal. Legally as a business it’s a done deal, even without the transfer of funds which of course would follow and conclude everything officially and leave nothing to be withdrawn, rejected, opposes or contested. Right now, it can’t be concluded officially as a legal football club entity as well as a legal business entity, funds transferred or not, until the PL approve the takeover in compliance with their own TOS that legally grants the business it’s status to operate as a football club in the PL’s competition. If they don’t approve the takeover, legally, as business, they will still own NUFC or can’t be stopped owning the club as a business and can still apply to register to operate as a football club or retain their status as a football club with the FA and EFL, which legally they can’t be denied or can be revoked. And if I’m correct in thinking, membership as such grants all football clubs who are members with the right to participate in any competition the FA/FL grant licence to operate under them which the PL must comply with in order to run their own competition as long as member clubs also comply. As such any Football Association member club can enter any competition/win promotion if they adhere to the TOS of those competitions which is based solely on sporting, spectator, stadium, safety, policing, stewarding and the ability to financially support putting out a team to fulfil all fixture requirements in general for all of the FA/FL licenced competitions. In short there are so many legal ways around things and as a business, legally as things stand, this is a done deal, only because this is also a football club requiring additional approval to also operate as a football club in the competition ran by the PL, legally, it’s not a done deal on that side. It would take an unprecedented ruling by the PL to deny NUFC’s legal status as a PL club and in ways that 100% couldn’t be contested and overruled which would also legally challenge the status of NUFC operating as registered and recognised business entity which again, right now, Ashley no longer owns because he’s sold it as a business and now it rests with the PL as to whether they will also legally own a PL football club. Every challenge, opposition, red flag, raised question mark, ethical, moral, financial, individually as persons involved, criteria, the PL has to go over with a fine tooth comb, and no matter what, they will eventually have no legal or sporting, financial or business basis in which to deny NUFC’s PL status as per their own TOS, unless they rewrite them and force every PL club to satisfy and risk losing their licence to run their competition under the FA who grants any football club great and small, professional or amateur, in the entire football pyramid, providing they adhere to their TOS, the right and status to enter/participate in every one of their competitions or any they licence to. I personally think the checks have been done, funds have or are being transferred to all parties involved and the only thing delaying any official announcement is to allow the PL to focus on restarting the season first and when that’s done every party involved will have had enough time to work on their own individual PR pieces and can also release media Q&As that they can all answer in unison in terms of any questions about privacy, dead widows letters, amnesty international, human rights issues and so on. The PL want this as much as we do, they want their money, they want another contender and an extra European super club to relegate rivals from Spain and Italy, they want an injection of big spending in the transfer market and want above all else, for them and anyone else to come and buy their product and no-one elses. I recommend everyone ignores any scare mongering or hyperbole in the press who no fuck all, be patient, relax and be confident that legally as a business, this is at the stage now where it’s a done deal, where legally as a football club, there is no other conclusion, and that’s what will soon be confirmed. And we will only find out when the official site says say, in black and white. So it's not a done deal then.
  18. Bruce thought he'd finished his cardio, after sanitising the handles.
