This has gotto stop. What is one game going to do ? Fucks sake, he's had chance after chance and our record speaks for itself. I hate wanting us to lose only for us to then have our players come up with a bit of "magick" to save his butt. He should have been sacked a long time ago and all this "next game" bollocks is just piss taking or naïveté from Ashley.

Here's what's visible on the backpage...

 

Mike Ashley has broken his silence on Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew's future and told [the Independent] that if he loses the Premier League game at Stoke City on Monday night he is "finished."

 

Last night, the multi-millionaire club owner's lawyers insisted that those comments, which were made late on Thursday night in a London bar, were a joke and intended to be tongue in cheek. But the strength of the remarks will still shock Newcastle fans, whose team are currently bottom of the Premier League. "He's got one more game."

That's definitely true.  They'd ban the paper if it wasn't, not claim Ashley was joking.

 

Oooh. Oooh. This is an interesting comment.

Just means he's been seen to be saying so had to back track and say "joke" he's definitely said it so us having to argue about context.

Bloke who is doing the story said Ashley was given a chance to retract it and said he was "joking"

 

@mdunn1982

He said it and was given chance to retract it.

Entire story of how reporter spoke to Ashley, and checked it was OK to run story, explained in full only in tomorrow's @theipaper @NUFC

I hope Ashley was pissed and let his mouth go, drunks usually let things slip that they wouldn't when sober.  Let's hope he has a skin full on Monday night and gives him the bullet while pissed out of his skull.
