Out of curiosity do think a takeover won't happen ?

Glue ?

Why not just pay the loan fee then get him for nowt next summer

The fact that Ashley has checked out, not a penny spent on transfers, St James or basic infrastructure maintenance, he's after a payout from the EPL and then he will sell to one of these leverage takeover groups that will pay him over a few years and he keeps a stake until he's paid off.

He said this morning he would post two separate stories today, he's done a piss poor job to convince me it wasn't all a set up so Bruce comes out on top.

I'm convinced we will get a takeover before the season is out but I'm not sure it will be the Saudis

Bruce pressure has forced Ashley, what a hero.

Straight into one of the worst u23 set ups in the top two divisions never to be heard of again.

Rember he was very very disappointed with the fans reaction on Saturday, that was just the tip of the iceberg

"Credit must be given to Bruce for sticking to his guns"

Ryder says he needs to move one out before anyone can come in

I'm sure he'll get a phone call off "Mike" telling him to carry on the good work.

He's already betrayed Willock by convincing him to come in the first place

19 players shipped out since the end of the season

100% agree

Got to crack a few eggs to make a bacon sandwich

I bet its almost £200k a week saved in wages

People are saying he did it before at Hull, however his stock was fairly high back then and he had other offers, the only place he could go after us is Salford with the 1992 lads.

£5 million a season for Willock we got £6 million off Armstrong, Ashley is actually up this window. We could really do with selling a few today to really put the boot in

I wonder if today's Jones announcement is significant?

Edwards getting dogs abuse on twitter, he'll be blocking loads

Bruce and Edwards made to look like chumps makes this a great transfer day

Bruce has nothing to lose and everything to gain by having a pop at Ashley today.

I hope the trouble is the coward growing a pair of balls
