  1. That may be true, but proving it is a different ballgame. I vaguely recall a journalist somewhere making reference to this a while ago and that MA’s case was going to blow apart the O&D test in general. Problem is a CAT case could be a very long way down the line and the majority of news has reported that PIF won’t wait that long. He’s had a £14m deposit though to fund his legal fees.
  2. Gayle is worth fuck all in transfer value, which is why we’ve failed to sell him for the past three seasons running. Plus, as I said earlier, we already know he’d rather sit on his contract with us rather than lower his wage. So when are we likely to sell him?
  3. Rob Elliot, Achraf Lazaar, Jamie Sterry, Ki, Mo Diame, Massaido Haidara have all left on a free transfer/end of contract within the last three years. All of them are as useful as Gayle in terms of never going to attract a transfer fee. Atsu and Saivet this season already too.
  4. It’s a good job this story came out because I had never heard of her before. I assume she’s revelling in the limelight due to her extremely high morals and not because she leaked it herself for a bit of publicity.
  5. We’ve openly been trying to flog Gayle for three years, why is he all of a sudden going to become an asset that people want? He’s refused to move to lower his wages, so we offer him a new deal knowing he’ll just wind his contract down?
  6. It’s absolutely not imminent - the only hope we have is through arbitration. Which we’re already on that back foot with after losing the case to get the chair removed. Is a chap who wrote the O&D rules going to vote against the PL? I’d be very surprised. The CAT case was a desperate last throw of the dice, but that can has been well and truly kicked down the road. As you say - would we be making decision on contracts when these players have 12 months left? Even if a decision is 6 months away, why on Earth would we offer them deals at this point?
  7. Ideal for Ashley though. Another summer with no investment or ambition and absolutely nobody giving him stick for it. A great excuse for him for the whole of next season too - “we were constrained in the summer by the ongoing takeover situation and couldn’t prepare properly”.
  8. That post was absolutely nowt like Wasn’t negative about the takeover, it was just a comment about people discussing a tweet that was a year old (and already proven to be bollocks). If we started discussing the merits of Leicester finishing in the top four in 2020/21, someone would probably comment something similar there too. I’ve got better things to do with my life than try and ‘rattle’ some people in the internet. I post my own thoughts and if people don’t like them, they can ignore them. The constant whinging/moaning/abuse about people posting their own opinions on a forum is ridiculous.
  9. Proven to be a bit of a liar then? That’s a bit weird. I’ve not said anything that others haven’t - read the posts above mine and on the previous page. I’m also not the one throwing abuse around and causing arguments. The thread was hardly a pocket full of dreams before my post like.
  10. You’ve got me on ignore, but you managed to quote my post? That hadn’t been quoted by anyone else… That’s weird.
  11. As did every other poster, you included. What a weird attempt at a dig. You’re welcome to use the ignore function any time you like. Is it? Didn’t realise this thread extended to discussing year old content too. —— Three people immediately jumping in on the back of a fairly innocuous/factual comment. And people wonder why these threads just descend into utter bollocks…
  12. Nearly two pages discussing a fake ITK tweet from 11 months ago
  13. How? That sort of foul occurs nearly every match and is always a yellow. It wasn’t high and was nowt more than a stand on the foot/ankle. No idea what Walton was wittering on about UEFA. I’ve seen similar fouls occur in games during this Euros and get a yellow.
  14. Thought that was harsh. Shock that Walton was falling over himself to justify it though.
  15. We all have subjects we are passionate about I have no doubt most are sound on here (you included) who I’d enjoy a few pints of pop with… but conversations are bound to het fractious at times. Especially when all things NUFC is as shit as it is.
  16. I absolutely don’t dislike you - I don’t agree with your opinions on OGS but that’s okay. I’m me. @Andersonbut I can be anyone you want me to be.
  17. I’m pleased he’s back I genuinely enjoy his bizarre opinions on everything.
  18. It’d be the first bit of good news in a long time if true
  19. The worst part is we don’t even look remotely stable defensively. If Scotland had a real striker, they’d have won last night. We should be playing to our strengths and being defensive is absolutely not one of them. But managers like Southgate see it too much of a weakness and try to over compensate that leaves us with this dire football.
  20. It’ll be even worse when Maguire comes back and Mings gets dropped, who has arguably been our best player so far.
  21. Gilmour doesn’t play in the PL though, does he? Hanley has only just been promoted and has always been a Championship player. McGregor and O’Donnell are both Championship standard players.
  22. The more I think about that performance, the angrier it makes me
  23. An almost identical one was given for Holland the other night - can’t understand why VAR didn’t even look at it. Well, I can. Because VAR is a load of shite.
  24. It’s mental. We’re literally walking when trying to make an attacking move. Players walking with the ball, two passes forward and then they turn around and pass it back. It’s pointless possession. We’re never going to do absolutely anything with it so we may as well not have the ball. The only time we look remotely threatening is on the break, but that only happens once or twice a match because we’re playing against crap opposition who give us the ball because they know we’ll do fuck all with it.
