timeEd32 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 If I can play body language expert for a second, he just seems bemused by the whole thing at this point.

Dave Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Sounds to me exactly like the summer. He and his team are going to line things up the best they can, do the groundwork of convincing players to come and clubs to sell/loan and put the deals to Charnley for approval and completion. Not a fucking clue which if any will be approved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

robm Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Just got to hope the takeover happens otherwise the summer will be pure whether we stay up or not and Ashley is still here. Won't be for me as I'll have washed my hands of the club. It'll be dead to me. Same for me. Really think that Ashley needs to be getting some stick now. I know it's tricky with the potential new owners but I think he is getting away with murder again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiedean Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I blame Charnley in the whole failure to conclude deals I mean who the fuck can take this chump seriously agent/player/ceo etc A secretary trying to conclude multi million pound business deals you couldn't make it up man. If/When we get taken over this useless fuckers arse needs to be the first out the door, never in a million years will he get this kind of role in any business ever again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 As much as Charnley is a yes man he has shown that he can get deals done. He's not the blocker, he doesn't have the authority. Ashley and Barnes are the blockers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizero Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I have no major beef with Charnley tbh. He's been at the club, what, 15 years now? He's risen through the ranks, and whilst he may not have gotten the job if it wasn't for Ashley penny pinching, I actually don't think he's out of his depth. He'd get deals done if there was a possibility to do them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mighty__mag Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 When quizzed on the 20th deadline thing, he went on to then say we will try and work hard until the last day. Seems he's conceded, and he's not going to be able to force demands with a guy who couldnt give two fucks about his reputation in the spotlight, he's dealing with an owner who just doesnt give a fuck what Rafa hints toward the press. Thats why he continues to let him down time and time again. Its getting fucking annoying how he's now getting away with this shit even with a decent reputable manager.

ExiledGeordie Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I almost get the feeling Ashley is actively trying to screw Benitez now. He doesn't like anyone going up against him and you wouldn't put it last Ashley to have someone lined up in the hope he can make life so difficult that Benitez resigns and has to pay up his contract. He's that much of a cunt. You just have to hope there's enough of a chance of the takeover happening that's still keeping him here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppaz Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 No idea if this is accurate but it's an interesting report on FFP. If you have players like Colback, Saviet and Mitro picking up wages and contributing nowt to the team there could be some truth in it... https://www.themag.co.uk/2018/01/wage-constraints-may-hampering-newcastle-united-transfer-market/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy Chibas Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 If the doesn't get some players he should walk the day after the window shuts and I hope the Ashley regime gets relegated to oblivion. ...... and I hope we never again achieve promotion, if Ashley is still here beyond the Summer (in the event of a relegation).

Guest neesy111 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Rafa won't quit on us through the season, but imo he'll be quitting straight after though and probably lining up a club to go to if the takeover fails. Tbf, any manager (minus Pardew and carver) working for us now would deserve better than what our shit show of an owner and board are providing at the moment.

Pilko Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Leaving Ritchie on was absolutely inexcusable. We were dying for Murphy to come on, and he blatantly settled for a point whilst Ritchie just slowed down every single bit of play we had in the most painful fashion. Shite, complete wrong approach today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 We clearly needed Murphy second half. Making late subs is one thing, but only using 2 is another. Think the team he started with worked well but as usual he doesn't react with subs and sometimes it costs us. Maybe Murphy wouldn't have changed it, but Ritchie and Atsu were getting no joy second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't, you're a shrill, what can he do with these players.........take your pick. Sometimes he gets it wrong, today being one and he deserves stick imo. Doesn't mean we don't love him to bits.
