Is that because people still hold out hope for the takeover? I can see it from that viewpoint i suppose. Apart from that, what's the point? To the extent that staying in the league bolsters whatever faint, faint hopes of being taken over there are, then Yes. I want improvements in the squad that will make that task easier in spite of the baffling case of Bruce's continued employment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So to sum it up, happy if he signs, couldn't give a fuck if he doesn't. Spot on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I don't know why everyone is panicking, it's not like we don't have midfielders that can step in with his goal scoring record, have we even seen Jeff in a Newcastle shirt since we stole him from Burnley ?

Sad state of affairs when my immediate reaction is to think they've agreed a fee then deliberately lowballed the player to give the illusion of ambition. It would be utterly typical of these cunts and their little PR games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
