Let's see, he's strong, probably good in bed and handsome to boot

Absolute legend!

5 is we beat Cardiff. 8 otherwise.

Rafa spending 300 million on Neymar and Suarez, leading to Newcastle playing super attacking football and winning a shock title?

And his clan.

No point convincing you people, you've made your mind up on this. Let's move on and just hate Ashley!

And Ferdinand is so poor that if Ashley says no to him, that he'll go bankrupt and have to drink himself to sleep on expensive champagne

He's too famous to need Ashley to shill his stuff. He's a very popular person in his own right and any company would fall head over heels to get Ferdinand's brand. Are you Rio Ferdinand? No, I am David Malan!

Again, this is willful misrepresentation. There is a link between Sports Direct and NUFC, there is no link between Ferdinand's merchandise and NUFC Wilful misrepresentation? Do me a favour. We're an empty vessel of a club which only exists to advertise Sports Direct. It's the only purpose of NUFC under Mike Ashley's ownership. To suggest the 2 entities aren't linked is just laughable. Ferdinand's merch has no relation with NUFC. SD does. How can you all be so obtuse? Ashley owns both. If he is nasty about how Ashley looks after NUFC, there's a good chance Ashley will stop SD from stocking his tat. Conversely if he supports Ashley's running of the club, Ashley will be pleased and will give him some shelf room. Surely that's easy enough for anyone to see? I don't even know why I'm bothering to try to explain it to you because you're so clearly on the wind-up. No human being is actually this thick. Ferdinand is an icon. He doesn't need Ashley of all people to shell his merch. This isn't some jumped up youtuber with 1 million subs. This is one of the great English CB's.

Because they have nothing else to do in the weekend. It's not like Newcastle's a metropolitan city with lots to do, and different places to go.

Again, this is willful misrepresentation. There is a link between Sports Direct and NUFC, there is no link between Ferdinand's merchandise and NUFC What are you arguing because you are saying two different things? To both: 1) Ashley benefits from NUFC via free advertising therefore prioritising his company over the team/club making your observation strange to say the least. 2) Rio Ferdinand sticks up for him because he is in business with SD/Keith bishop. No one is saying his stuff has anything to do with NUFC. He still stuck the boot into fans regardless because he has an interest in currying favour with MA. He is in business with SD, because his merch is sold there. You're having a laugh if you think no other store would ever take that merch.

Again, this is willful misrepresentation. There is a link between Sports Direct and NUFC, there is no link between Ferdinand's merchandise and NUFC

Again, no one is denying Ashley is basically using our club to do whatever he wants for Sports Direct, but that does not mean that Ferdinand is in anyway in direct of conflict for talking about NUFC since his merchandise has zero to do with NUFC. I still don't get what's so contradictory about that

I still stand by it. NUFC shares an odious owner and free advertising, that's all. Ferdinand sells his brand to Sports Direct, and that is not advertises via NUFC

But is he buying a striker with his wages?

There's a guy that wants Rafa sacked and is apparently serious and I'm the worst poster? o_O

Okay, whatever. Can't believe how a simple comment gets so many mad. Not everything is a conspiracy. Hopefully Ashley fucks off so people can calm down

It's Instagram. And to think your generation calls us snowflakes. You probably support BREXIT too, like Colin?

Okay.

If defenders at s*** clubs know more about defending, why do they concede more goals? I guarantee Rio could not give any of our defenders a lesson on defending. Rafa on the other hand... What Rio knows about defending is no more than what I do in terms of talking about it. It’s easy to say this or that which is common sense stuff and he gets away with it like many pundits do because he’s played the game or because he’s Rio Ferdinand. These pundits and their analysis is for braindead armchair fans. Why anyone would sit through pre, half-time and post match analysis with Rio Cole and Sutton 3 dimwits is as mind boggling as 53k going to watch s*** players try and keep a clean sheet so we don’t lose, but end up losing anyway. If only Rio was our manager... Rio would be a horrific manager. Like Neville was. Doesn't mean they're bad pundits. Hardly a controversial point

Ughhh don't insult me

Oh, so it's the mong bit that's got people so upset. Fine, it was pretentious of me to use such a word when it may have upset a few people

Last I checked, Ferdinand has zero business interest in NUFC He exclusively sells his s*** merchandise at Sports Direct... And this is why I call this agenda idiotic. NUFC has no relation to Sports Direct, bar having the same owner, and some shit ads plastered on top.
