Robster Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Any 'announcement' will only be via David Craig (ie leaked to the media) again IMO. Wasn't Ashley's last announcement to the Times, i.e. the 'I'm selling up' announcement that came completely out of the blue? Club's web site wasnt it ?

Guest thefishman Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Just heard from a reliable source ( thomo) we will indeed be sold tommorow to a consortium headed by george michael and boy george, and the new manager will be allan carr supported from the back by michael barrymore. Could be shite (all over) like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 To be honest it's more than likely there might not even be any announcement tomorrow, and even if there is it will just be Ashley declaring his intentions to stay and appoint Hughton (Or Kinnear) on a permanent basis. Although I'd love the club to be sold tomorrow, it won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Mongo Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I heard Mike Ashley is going to sell the club tomorrow if and only if this thread has reached 500 pages by noon. If not, he'll retain full control and sell Steven Taylor to a Bahrainian 3rd division club in exchange for 15 camels and a pack mule (the pack mule being Nicky Butt's replacement, as he's going to Burnley).

lovejoy Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Nobody has a clue what's coming IMO. Keegan, kinnear, shearer, and the latest 'for sale sign' were not written about by the press prior to announcement. If there is to be a statement tomorrow, it has just as much chance of being a sale/partnership as it has being him staying, despite what the media say.

Although I'd love the club to be sold tomorrow, it won't. Probably right. And then Ashley and Llambias will make (or have made) a judgement call based on the results so far as they see it. So the fact that we have had few injuries and have only 4 defenders will pass them by. They will probably decide that there are some assets in the squad with a "significant residual value" that can be realised, and will make sorting that out a priority before thinking about what we do when two of our first choice defenders do a hamstring in November.

ElDiablo Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 How ridiculous is it that even at this stage we're absolutely in the dark as to whether he will decide to stay or that a takeover is imminent? Neither would surprise me but there is little evidence to suggest which way he will go. An absolute farce of a situation, and of a man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzle Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Official NUFC Statement Newcastle United Football Club can official reveal that Derek Llambias' penis is shorter than first though. Prior to losing a bet with Mike Ashley and running across the St James' Park turf, it was thought that Mr Llambias' penis was over two inches. However the club can now confirm that Mr Llambias' penis is in fact shorter than two inches. The club will hold a press conference tomorrow at 3pm to address this issue.

The laughable thing about it as well is that they know the communication's been bad and that they've said that they would work in it, yet here we are knowing sweet fuck all. What a joke.

chicago_shearer Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I'm hoping for a new owner and a full time manager by this time tomorrow, but I'd settle for any outcome that doesn't involve Joe Kinnear. Forward progress would be too much to hope for, so let's at least cross our fingers and hope that it doesn't get worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knee jerking here, perhaps, but I do think that we'll get promoted and that will leave us in a much better state for any potential buyer. I just don't think I could stand an entire season listening to Kinnears bull shit. At least Ashley is quiet while being an inept cretin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
