Think if Bruce had training clips like we did for Howe at the start we might find a side to him we didn't hear about

Compared to

Not taking the news too well, the whole timeline's full of stuff like this. He's been at it for weeks too. Also £70m is almost double what we're paying so that's a good thing if anyone triggered it?

Will Graeme Bailey do? https://www.90min.com/posts/newcastle-united-set-to-beat-ac-milan-to-sven-botman-signing Newcastle United are set to win the race to sign Dutch defender Sven Botman, 90min understands. The Magpies have been locked in a battle with Italian giants AC Milan to land the Lille defender and now they are to seal his signature. More to follow...

Hang on statement

As above

Ryder update https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-united-sven-botman-offer-24318855 United chiefs would not comment on the new round of reports in both France and Italy. That's essentially it, 'no comment'

Keep an eye on Craig Hope tonight if that's true then

That's true I think https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2022/06/22/mike-ashley-rivals-andrew-appleby-group-50m-deposit-ready-save/ (from yesterday) Mike Ashley has ramped up his bid to buy Derby County after depositing £50 million to acquire the club and Pride Park Stadium. Ashley's group are set to inform Derby's administrators, Quantuma, that they are ready to proceed with a deal to rival former chairman Andrew Appleby and save the club from liquidation. Telegraph Sport has seen correspondence that shows Ashley's lawyers, RPC, are holding £50m in preparation to complete a takeover of the stricken League One club. The deal is understood to include the club and its assets, plus the stadium which is still owned by former chairman Mel Morris. Ashley's proposal will not include any charges for the rent of Pride Park, or take any money out of the club, including charges of interest, for the next 10 years.

When this one falls apart Ashley can try again if the club's not dead

That 'breaking' story was 24 hours ago when 360 tweeted it

https://www.nufc.co.uk/news/latest-news/england-international-nick-pope-joins-newcastle-united/ Newcastle United are delighted to confirm the signing of England international goalkeeper Nick Pope, who joins the club from Burnley from an undisclosed fee. The Soham-born shot-stopper, who has played eight times for his country, had spent the past six seasons at Turf Moor, twice winning Burnley's player of the year award and helping the Clarets to qualify for Europe in 2017/18. He was named in the PFA Premier League Team of the Year in 2019/20, when he kept 15 clean sheets throughout the campaign, and made history last year as the first goalkeeper to keep clean sheets in his first six games for England. He has signed a four-year contract at St. James' Park and becomes Eddie Howe's second signing of the summer, following Matt Targett, who joined United on a permanent deal earlier this month following a successful loan spell last term. Pope started his career with boyhood club Ipswich Town before dropping into non-league with Bury Town. From there, he joined Charlton Athletic before - following a series of loan moves - signing for Burnley in the summer of 2016, making a total of 155 appearances and firmly establishing himself as one of the country's best goalkeepers. The 30-year-old said: "Now I'm here, I can't wait to get started. The deal has taken a couple of weeks to come to fruition but it got over the line really quickly, and I'm delighted to be here and I'm really looking forward to getting stuck into it." Head coach Eddie Howe added: "Nick is an exceptional Premier League and international level goalkeeper so I'm very pleased to be adding strong competition to a very important position. "There has been a lot of interest in him from other clubs this summer, so I'd like to thank our owners and everyone behind the scenes for getting us ahead of the competition. I'm delighted he is joining us as we prepare for the exciting challenge ahead."

Just bring up the thread the moment they 'pulled out' initially and that's the deep down feelings, even if at surface level protesting the issues about Saudi Arabia is encouraged

The first thing on their mind in this tweet is the last time we beat Sunderland - this is a recurring tweet isn't it I've seen the second line before?

That's Cedwyn gone too
