I'm just making a timeline of Ashley being Ashley, i'm very sure im missing stuff:

 

Hired Denis Wise as Executive Director.

Hired Tony Jimenez, who later claimed Modric wasn’t good enough for the Premier League

Sold James Milner and replaced him with Xisco and Nacho Gonzalez

Forced Kevin Keegan Out as manager, which resulted in a court case where it got proven the club has intentionally misled the fans.

Hired Joe Kinnear as manager, who in his first press conference called a member of the press a cunt.

Hired Alan Shearer in a last ditch effort to keep us up.

Got relegated.

Told Alan Shearer he had a job then never got back to him.

Lost 6-1 to Leyton Orient.

Got promoted, sacked Christ Huoughton the club favourite manager after his first poor run of games back in the Premier League, and following a 5-1 victory against Sunderland.

Hired Alan Pardew as they went to the same casino

Under Alan Pardew Newcastle lost…

4-0 to Wigan, 3-0 to Man Utd, 7-3 to Arsenal, 4-0 to Man City, 6-0 to Liverpool, 3-0 to Sunderland, 4-0 to Man City again, 3-0 to Swansea, 3-0 to Sunderland again, 3-0 to Chelsea, 4-0 to Spurs, 3-0 to Everton, 4-0 to Southampton, 4-0 to Man United, 3-0 to Arsenal, 4-0 to Southampton again, 1-0 to Sunderland, 2-1 to Sunderland. But hey he finished 5th once.

Hired Joe Kinnear as DOF.

Re-named St James Park to the Sports Direct Arena.

Had Wonga as a sponsor.

Hired John Carver as manager who nearly got us relegated.

Tried to sack Jonas Gutierrez after they found out he had cancer.

Released Jonas, by calling Ryan Taylors phone.

Hired Steve McLaren as manager.

Fired Steve McLaren, and appointed Rafa Benitez as manager in a last ditch to keep us up.

Got relegated.

Got promoted under the leadership of Rafa, who would later guide the club to a top 10 finish and keep the club up comfortable. Despite being hamstrung financially.

Let Rafa go at the end of his club as he was too ambitious.

The club are currently in the position where they have no manager, no goal threat, and looking into oblivion,

 

God I read this and cry. What a glorious 12 years we've had.

 

The only thing missing is the net spend over those 12 years and our dominance of the two cup competitions.

 

I think I should go and support a decent amateur team.

Yep. It's quite staggering to see actual fans of the club try to play down Ashley's acts.

 

How dare Godzilla use actual facts to counter numbers someone pulled out of their arse. Because it's Ashley, it must all be true!

 

Remember when NUFC fans were painted as morons because some people actually thought transfer funds were being used to buy House of Fraser and were ringing the phone ins about it? When the Mag (I think) posted an online article about how Ashley was leasing the Gallowgate plot back to the club for £60m? That's why I respond to bollocks spouted about Ashley. It all deflects from the clear evidence about him which should always be the focus of our ire. See 54's brilliant post for that.

 

So I'm not having you come out and paint people as apologists because they are calling out bullshit posted on here.

 

:lol:

 

Those are a bit different from saying he is taking upto £10 million worth of free advertising a year from the club. But you and Godzilla are determined to even play things like that down.

Not interested in playing anything down, it's quite obvious that NUFC would have made more money with advertisers actually paying for the coverage. If someone posts that Crystal Palace would make £40m from a similar deal, when it's quite clear they wouldn't, then it's fair to call that out as bollocks and it shouldn't come with some implication that you're the enemy.

NUFC ... yeah but the free ads benefit Mike Ashley not NUFC ...

There was the period of mourning in Dubai for 3 days, their weekend is Friday-Saturday so I expect if something is coming it has to be this week (I've obviously spent waaaay too much time on Twitter). It would make sense for this to be quashed sooner rather than later, given the timescales to actually sort out the shitstorm that the fat cunt has created.

The news all started on a Sunday evening, so will be fitting for it to end the same way.

How they treated Jonas was absolutely disgusting like. Tells you all you need to know about that fat cunt and his lackeys. No way to treat a human being, let alone a consummate professional and employee.
