Jamaal Lascelles

[Astroblack]

Hope this guy has a good season so we can sell him for as much as possible. Hopefully some of that money can be used to get some firepower.

If Rafa drops him on Saturday..

[Yorkie]

This season has been the absolute pits. Endless, constant misery.

[Guest chopey]

If Rafa drops him on Saturday..

 

and then says "I know nothing about a new contract"

[Ketsbaia]

He's made it perfectly clear where his loyalties lie and its not with us. Don't blame him, don't hate him but he's going to get an awful lot of shit for his public backing of Ashley.

 

He's basically dead to me.

 

This

[thenige]

Nobody ever claimed footballers were the brightest bunch. As club captain he has a responsibility to try and pull people together which he’s tried to do in a bit of an ill-concieved way. Given the current climate some of his words show again that detachment between players/ex-players and the fans (aka Shola the pundit).

 

But the day the club captain says to the press ‘I back the protests against the current owner and the fat man is a prick’ is the day he’s no longer club captain. At least he’s actually played quite well this season. In comparison most of the rest of the squad could come out and slag off Ashley but they’d still do us no favours come Saturday.

It's a bit like squeezing the toothpaste out this, it ain't going back in.

 

What a monumental fuck up from Lascelles.

[Mattoon]

Should have just thanked the club for the contract and pledged his future to the team and left it at that. Clearly been bought off by the offer of a little extra coin like a fucking prostitute, lost all respect for him after that. You've made yourself part of the problem Lascelles.

The bottomline is he has genuinely done a 360 (on strong opinions) for cash. Don't blame a man for going for bigger earnings...but to change your opinions only due to cash has fuck all to do with career and everything to do with being a hugely greedy, shallow cunt. And to say the stupid things he said shows a level of dumb I don't need to be bothered with.

 

I'm not attached to any of our players...but I now dislike him :lol:r

 

180 ?

[LRD]

Still waiting to find out where the Carroll, Cabaye, Sissoko, Mitrovic monies went to.

[Darth Crooks]

It’s the ‘stop the negativity line’ and ‘bad energy’ as if we’re just nutters. I know he’s not joining MENSA in a hurry but c’mon, it’s lightyears away from asking him to back protest.

[Sima]

I second the ‘keep his flag away’ suggestion, see if he gets the message.

[Guest chopey]

I think one of the problems here is the fact that players very rarely to interviews under the Ashley's fascist regime, players don't have the chance to speak out as much as Pre Ashley, actually I don't even think I've heard any of our summer signings speak.

That’s what has annoyed me about the whole thing, more than the the “nice guy” line.  It came across as it was the fans fault for protesting, making these poor little lambs play so poorly. Well he can f*** off. If you take Rafa out of the equation, you would not be arsed one bit if the rest of it all just burned to the ground with all the buck passing useless fuckwits still in it. Apart from Rafa, there is nothing at all to like about any of it. Hope he gets loads of s***.

[Darth Crooks]

Do I believe mike Ashley is capable of being superficially nice - sure. We’ve had 11 years of knowing better. Not wanting to knock him too much but if you spend your evenings playing fortnite with jonjo shelvey then I question your capacity to grasp the nuance of the situation. Ignorance.

[Darth Crooks]

Sky news having a dig at the fans this morning

[mrmojorisin75]

I second the ‘keep his flag away’ suggestion, see if he gets the message.

 

if the magpie group or ashley out have any sense they'll be knocking up a new banner along these lines, the only negativity is ashley's net spend or whatever

[Wilson]

100%.  Fuck him.

[wormy]

It'd be so satisfying if when the lineups are announced over the tannoy his name was met with silence.

[Shearergol]

So the reason we’re shit this season is the fans being negative? Well if the players don’t feel Ashley is to blame, perhaps it’s time for them to start looking at themselves and actually being footballers again.

 

What a fucking sellout.

[Wallsendmag]

Nothing personal against Lascelles but he's been the one player who has spoken out and challenged Ashley in the past. He was very vocal about leading the players bonus dispute against him and has spoken out about him not backing the manager with funds in the transfer market.

 

Suddenly he bags himself a nice pay rise and Ashley is now a nice guy. You can see why he's got people's backs up.

[mrmojorisin75]

funny one like, they kick off themselves about the bonus and the fans would have 100% had their back if it dragged on longer than it did

 

they got their bonus, now he's getting a contract and chelping about negativity

 

when i think of it in those terms, as much as i've come to like him, that's very poor indeed

[Shearergol]

Thing is, we only backed them on the bonus issue because Ashley is a cunt. Decent owner and be be shouting at the rich greedy bastards to just get on with it.

 

It’s getting to the point where there is nobody at the club to like.
