et tu brute

Nope he (like 99% of them), was only full of laughing when PIF initially walked away and then taking delight in trying to take the piss when the takeover was ongoing after that. Even when it suddenly looked like it was actually happening, he was still going on that PIF had walked away and it wouldn't happen. Never any mention about any human rights at any time pre takeover (exactly the same as the rest of them).

jlaws and skellington are knackers also. Constantly trying to make on to the 'faux outragers', that they're knowledgeable about stuff, whilst consistently getting things wrong time and time again.

Looking forward to the mackem meltdown ......... but, but, but, Pickford's number 1

Maybe true, but Bailey is not the most reliable either. I'll just wait until the end of August to see who comes in as I'm pretty confident the owners will provide.

Probably a sell on % built in also or first nabs at buying him bsck if he suddenly improves (I don't think he will mind).

Maybe controversial, but I wouldn't bet against Dubravka being sold and Darlow remaining as number 2.

Pay the money and you will get him as you won't unless you do. Instead of asking why has he not signed for Newcastle yet, I think you need to concentrate of why he hasn't signed for Milan yet.

Same for a few thousand by the look of it (me included) and it's going to mean a big decision for the owners moving forward.

It's the only way forward (if we keep progressing). I've not been back since the season before Rafa left so can't get a ticket despite having one before that unbroken from when the East stand was built. I presume they might have updated the system so that records pre 2019 may not be available. I've mentioned it a few times that we need an extension over 60,000 (not sure the cost will be worth it) or a new stadium. Impossible situation for the owners I appreciate, there was always going to be a number of fans left out.

Signed nobody so far, or if they have they've kept it very quiet as I've seen nothing reported.

Not if they really want to push on. The kid owner has always maintained that he will run the club within its means. They're not going to do that (push on) without further investment, as any additional revenue will be gobbled up by additional costs.

As I thought no new investment (no INEOS or rich Arabs some were forecasting) and Donald still has 19%

Disagree, you get a quality midfielder to control the game with Bruno, then the whole dynamic of the team changes. We need the wide player (especially right) and striker as priorities also mind. Let's see if the ambition really is there to sign these improvements at CB, CM, RW and CF, I'm quietly confident they will.

I actually think it's an essential priority, you are not going to control games wth the current midfield we have.

Wait a minute, I thought he was only bothered about the human rights

Of course they are, shit clickbait stories and tbf it works because people are more than happy to oblige.

Well with Dyche all that was necessary was to hoof it forward and any keeper can do that.

It's much easier taking no notice of shite clickbait (especially from no marks like Edwards and Ryder), chill out and wait for the actual signings to be confirmed.

No coincidence he was rooted to the bench at Bournemouth also. The few games he played for us he looked a total liability.

There is an agreement in place for the payment phase. He's trying to use Staveley coming out saying she was looking forward to his shit signs coming down, as a reason to request immediate payment. I do agree it maybe an attempt (he won't win) to try and get back onto the bandwagon. As for the no comment, that is 100% correct action to take. Let Ashley continue to open his mouth as usual. I thought it was funny that he had to pay money to PCP for them to consider further information.

Pretty sure he hasn't, however thinking on this, is this his attempt to try and get back 10% ownership, by trying to force the issue with winning the case. What I mean by that, is, if he did win the case and PCP couldn't give the immediate repayment, will he then try to force the issue by saying the agreement with PCP is 'null and void' and their 10% goes back to him. For one, what was stated today seemed to be all verbal with no documentation to support what he's claiming. I don't think he will win (unless he has this documentation) and the bloke is a liar (and recorded within the judgement) as was shown in the case with Keegan.

That's what the fat cunt is saying, let's see if there is any documented evidence of that. Edit: looks like his legal team said there were discussions (nothing suggesting it was in writing). The Keegan case proved what a lying bastard he is.

At the end of the day, until the fee Lille want is matched, then nobody is in the race. Wether Newcastle keep waiting whilst being pissed about, I'm not convinced. I can see us moving on this week (if we haven't already) as they've already stated they won't stand for other clubs trying to take advantage just because we have increased funds available. Newcastle pulling out (if they do) won't help you either unless you up your current offer, which by all accounts is quite a bit short.

Fully illustrated in earnest within that Stewart thread, because West Brom are linked with being interested.

Tell you what the 'supposed NUFC' fans who post on that thread are a right bunch of knackers.
