Accumulation of points.

Players are absolutely dead on their feet already lol

Goal kicks aimed at 5'4" Ryan Fraser. Awesome.

This diamond formation is proper shit

I follow him but God knows why. Always spouting ITK stuff that turns out to be bollocks. Clearly thinks he's Billy big bollocks. Quite funny when he's so certain and ends up getting it wrong though,then moans at the "abuse" he gets. His false info insider tweet about Wilson's injury was sensational. He deleted it completely

He's gonna be here for ages imo

Another 0-0.

Either way it just makes no sense to me. Why would the buyers not insist the manager be replaced?

Bruce is probably viewed by Charnley as the ideal manager for a promotion push tbh.

Swansea will probably leapfrog us so good chance they sign Woodman permanently.

Liverpool are so bad

It's over. Fulham are way better than us and we won't score goals at all in our current predicament.

Liverpool's team looks absolutely appalling lol. Wouldn't be surprised if Fulham won at all

And in 2013/14 and 2014/15...

Good to get some confirmation that things are actually ongoing (and surely totally disproves whatever info Luke Edwards was fed), but doesn't exactly seem to bode well for the outcome of arbitration.

Ritchie apology and Charnley at the training ground suggests he will, sadly. Unless Ashley personally steps in and orders the chop after we lose at the weekend.

I see no reason to doubt Edwards' information that Barnes has suspended whatever processes are ongoing until the relegation picture is settled. As Ben Jacobs says, with relegation looming Ashley will need to evaluate his options too and this sort of decision sounds very much at his behest as much as the consortium's.

Looked up the 06-07 table and didn't realise we were only 5 points clear of 18th. Not good, but by the same token he wasn't exactly brilliantly supported (all his early transfer targets like Kuyt, Gravesen, Sol Campbell went to other clubs; we ended up with Duff who we didn't even need and gambled on a crocked Olivier Benard return/Rossi loan on deadline day) plus he had all those injuries during the season. His caretaker spell and the Uefa run the following season does put him up above most of the offerings by the majority of the managerial dross that followed him. Seems like a brilliant guy and will be sadly missed.

Would have preferred almost anyone other than Ritchie coming on lol. Murphy at RB, Dummett at LB with Lewis on the wing - anything.

Krafth makes me miss Peter Ramage

The real question you should be asking is why you feel the need to keep asking him. Trying to get people to give up their sources is the definition of cringe. His track record proves itself, literally hasn't put one piece of information on here that was wrong. That should be more than enough to just take the info and move on. Yeah but he's also a person who has his own opinions and beliefs just like we all do as supporters Not everything he posts is necessarily a goblet of information. Getting a leak about team news a few hours before a matchday is very different from having a source close to the arbitration process.

He never actually claimed to have insider knowledge though did he?

Agreed, not a chance this is ever going to happen. Only hope now really is AS and the Reubens pooling together to try to buy the club on their own, but it remains to be seen if they have the means or interest in doing that.

I know Woodman is thick as shit but still I'm surprised he freely admitted something so unprofessional as the talk about his conduct with the payoff and then intentionally looking for fights with McClaren. Especially since he's currently employed at Arsenal.

:lol: There's people here who'll never concede that the takeover has failed. We'll be sat here posting in decades time and they'll still be all "Announcement on Friday. Mark my words." Was just about to reply something similar. Haven't really paid attention to the takeover thread since PIP & Co announced they pulled out mid last year. Unless there's anything new (substantial information) that has completely went past me I fail to see why a relegation is such a bad thing for a takeover. In my mind I've already embraced relegation, and hope that we don't succeed in getting straight back up too so that the club becomes a financial burden to Ashley. One of the best indicators that a takeover isn't happening is the fact Bruce is still here.
