https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/11996289/steve-bruce-man-utd-captaincy-headers-management-and-more-off-script This just about sums the fat useless cunt up nicely. Ambitions to be a Championship manager? One or two leagues too high, I'd say.....

Never heard of it, just watched a clip, isn't it Mornington Crescent? I'm sorry, I haven't a clue Sorry, deviation...............

Brilliant! It looks like bloody IKEA too!

Getting hotter and hotter.........

I've just read it. Brilliant piece of work. It should be cast in stone on every pundits and followers forehead.

Is there any merit in the thought that, even if it has all been approved and ready to be announced, that the announcement is being delayed because of the likely madness that will take place in Newcastle city centre and the implications that will have in spreading the virus like mad. Just a thought.......

I'd forgotten that. Jees, how the fuck did those four get us into Europe???

100% - The list only has four names. Chris H was a gentleman, tactically aware and an all round good guy. Just the sort Ashley doesn't like. I often wonder how fat he could /would have taken us with a decent owner. The 1st 3 names are absolutely carved in stone.

Jeees, man, can't you see that almost everyone disagrees with you. The vast majority of us think he has not done 'a decent job' by a very, very long way. Can't you just give it a break? Please???

The man is simply an inept dinosaur who have achieved some staggering results more by luck than any judgement or tactical ability. Our football has been utterly shocking - embarrassingly so. He needs to go as soon as the ink is dry, and I wish him luck in his next job as Manager of Walsall. Or Hartlepool. Or Bury. That's about his level but I feel fucking sorry for any clubs he might be staggeringly lucky to manage.

Bollocks. He’s had a massive amount of luck, we’ve been playing the shittest ‘football’ in 4 divisions and the entire thing is completely unsustainable. Are you going to tell us it was a plan to have our defenders go on an unprecedented scoring spree? Good management that rescued a point with 2 injury time goals? Managing to get past the mighty Rochdale and Oxford in a mere 360 minutes of dross was top class stuff? By rights we should have been bottom of the table and thanking our lucky stars for Covid-19. We've got the joint best home defence in the league FFS. We play shit football, but the team spirit is clearly strong, and we consistently pick up points. In the quarters of FA Cup and 35 points after 29 games isn't shit. It's okay. Tell me you aren't being serious? Please??? 'Okay'. Nothing is okay......

I think......I fucking think but don't fucking know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I was King until this is sorted out, I'd make the following words on this forum illegal and subject to the penalty of having to wear a Scumberland shirt for a month: I think... I feel I've heard It will happen next....week/day/Thursday etc In The Know Some random twitter account says........ Let's get it right. This is (potentially) a £300 Million plus takeover involving Mike Ashley. Such high or low profile business buyouts or takeover are not, repeat not, discussed by buyers, sellers or their contacts on Twitter, Fucking Facebook or any other social media. IF it happens, it will be announced when both parties are ready. Until then ? Chill.

I am prepared to be slated for this..... We know the vast majority of us want the takeover to go ahead, and most on here were hoping/expecting it to happen this week - now it's next week. Many are quoting things like 'Why is it taking so long for the Premier League to give approval'..... So,.........have the PL ever admitted in person, that it has received a completed and accepted offer and is checking to see if it is compliant with Fit and Proper Persons??? Because if they haven't everything else is nothing but hope and speculation. HTT saying 5.00pm on Friday for example. 'Trust me I know'. 'This is going to happen' Is it?? Please, facts only in your replies!!!!

God, we've had to put up with some shit...................

Optimistic? Hopeful? Gullible? Stop even thinking about what day, what time. It will happen when the seller and buyer have tidied everything up and go to a press conference or announcement. Don't even try to hold your breath..........

Reading that utterly depressing list makes me want to cry. Sh#t man, FCB has destroyed everything our club was. I find it impossible to chose 5 or put any of them in any order. It's just a criminal list of crimes against our club and he deserves to be shot for every single one. Sorry guys, no list from me. Every fucking single 1 of them is top of the pile of shit.

Ripping my club out of my heart. God, I hate him.

...what? Spurs, Arsenal, Man City, Liverpool, Man Utd All say hi. Sorry, that sentence was supposed to end with ‘who are for sale’. Never, ever, pick up a brick that you've dropped. You got it totally wrong - just admit it!!!!! and, no, West Ham aren't up for sale either.....

You'd rather stick with Ashley??? Go die........... same thing.

The awful thing is that I can hear him whinging about being replaced. Arh didn't get the chance ar shud uv. We wus doin reely well, climing the leege, wu cud ov got inta Urop if ah had the support that Rafffa had. Arm sik ov peepl sayun he wus bedda than me. Ah had the teem playun crackin footbarl an all. Absolut crackin. If ar had the munny the new owners ar gunna giv the new guy, then wu cudda been top six. Eesy. Ar feel cheeted. Gutted. The great thing if this all comes off is that this will be this cabbages last job in football.

There is absolutely no way on this planet that he will ever buy another football club. He hates owning us, why do it again? He will use any money from the sale to support his shitty retail empire.

This is my first comment since the fakeover became a more than possible takeover. I've watched and read and said nothing because there have been so many crushing disappointments in the last 13 years, I have barely hoped to dream that one day Ashley might be gone from the club I have loved all my life. The prospect of him going and being replaced by owners who might actually give something to the club, its supporters, the city and the community fills me with that glorious word 'hope'. There is, inevitably, concern amongst many about the human rights record of our potential new owners and I share that. We live in a world where most countries - including the UK - put trade and money above all else. It's not a world I like but I have to live in it. To the title of this thread. 'Next Manager'. The debate should not about which potential manger espouses the best football, the most attacking team, has a global reputation to attract some of the best players - although I see the appeal in that and, if that is the case, then Allegri is supremely qualified. No, the debate should be about who is best suited to rebuild, from the very bottom up, every single element of our once great and proud club. Who knows what the Geordie nation need, who understands that paddling pools are not fit for purpose. That we need a completely new training ground, facilities, sports science and psychology development, That the youth system needs over-hauling so that we can bring on and develop our own, a professional scouting and recruitment team put in place to build for the future. Someone who, yes please, can bring in a few world stars but build a real team of quality players with natural succession and a real long term plan for the future. Someone who can communicate with our new owners as well as the supporters. Someone who can help rebuild or relocate (dare I say it) to give us a 'fit for purpose 21st century stadium that could hold 85,000 people. Someone who can inspire. Lead. For me there is only one man. Come back Rafa. We need you.

There's some damn good names. David Silva??

Norman 'Bites yer legs Hunter' I loved watching him. Proper footballer. RIP Norman!
