Ankles Bennett Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Seems to me that he's having a go at the EPL and that laughable rule called FFP. The clubs owned by oil rich owners just circumvent the FFP rules. It was fairer before FFP was brought in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Think I preferred when he didn't say anything. Remember when he was supposedly notoriously secretive and never said anything in public? For someone supposed to be "good mates" with the people at Tottenham, he has learnt ferk all about running a football club from them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Five o Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I just saw the intervju. Based on this summer/last 10 years why is everyone upset, it just confirm what we already know. He is a batshit cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 The more I think about it, the more I realise I was ruined growing up as a Newcastle fan under Keegan and Robson. Those dross years under Souness and Roeder seem almost wonderful in comparison to the last 10 years of nothing. At least back then we did try in the cups, even if we were knocked out in the third round every year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Worst thing he's ever said in my opinion. Just shows he hasn't listened, accepted any responsibility and that he has no interest in what the club is actually about as he completely misses or avoids the actual point. Damning.

Shelveys Hair Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 "This is Newcastle United" bit really pissed me off. This club despite having the parasite of Sports Direct sucking the life blood out of it has managed to attract one of the worlds top managers. All that is required is a little bit of backing, no £100 millions of pounds.. just enough to make us competitive. Big Mike has such very little respect and/or foresight to see what he has in his hands. If ran right we are a decent club who could punch above its weight, but the more I see of Ashley the more I realise its not his intention to do so.

While I get and agree with your overall point there's always going to be anxiety with Ashley as owner, especially as a manager with the pedigree of Rafa's position is being threatened by the owner being a cunt; it's going to make people uneasy. They've got history for it with KK, Shearer and Hughton. Far too many media outlets have been saying he's unhappy/frustrated for him not to be unhappy/frustrated. Surely you can understand why people are so uneasy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're forgetting just one thing and that Ashley is a gambling man who doesnt like to lose. Be it now or next season through lack of investment or even just waiting until Rafa leaves and sticking Pardew back in charge, things are not going to change. Its like f***ing groundhog day.

Guest chopey Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I can but historically Newcastle United's fans have never had anything in common with the owners and directors, we are a force unto ourselves Sir John Hall took control of the club through the magpie group, that had the support of the fans in the Leazers, Paddocks and Gallowgate, nowt to do with the suits in the Milburn did he return the favour and give those fans a voice did he f***. Like every top club the true fans and the owners have nowt in common, just now we need someone to blame so we are blaming the bloke writing the cheques .................not the sick f***ers cashing them. ............Howay the lads Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelveys Hair Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 You can bury your head in the sand as much as you want but there will come a point when Rafa realises he is wasting his time and then what? I honestly think we can get something on Sunday and this team might go on to shock people but again then what? We finished 5th under Pardew and had a chance to do something, then failed to invest and were nearly relegated. We are going around in circles.

I don't get it. What are we enjoying right now? Should we be grateful that one of the most fervently supported teams in the UK and literally one of the world's biggest money making clubs is back in the Premier League? When I see us actually match the ambition of the world class manager who I could see leaving any minute like Keegan, then I'll be happy.

Totally agree, I'm as cynical as the best if them, but ffs the amount of folks on here that seem to want to remove all possible hope from the season is crazy. Ashley is a dick, we have a squad with holes in it but we have a world class manager who can get the best out of players. Seriously this is about as good as it's been under Ashley, if you can't at least hope for a season where you can truly get behind the team, then why bother at all. Give up, go watch the darts or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 The fact Rafa is a world class manager is the very reason (or one of them) people are so pissed. You are wasting the best manager you can hope to get because you are a massive cunt (obviously referring to Ashley). It's the same as when people got massively frustrated with Pardew wasting the talent he had, because it was a massive waste of potential. Besides what is there to look forward to? A frustrating season where we finish lower mid table with no real future past next summer when Rafa leaves because the owner keeps pissing him about? Sounds awesome.
