toon25 Posted December 25, 2024 Share Posted December 25, 2024 We'll be having north v south or whatever that fat cunt Boehley was banging on about a year or so ago. 39th game and/or overseas games a likely possibility in the near future.

Expand Then they have problems with their owners, their nationality has no part in it. They'll have shit owners that are shit, just like any other club that's had shit owners that were shit because they were shit owners - not because of what country they were from. "Sports Direct @ St. James Park" What should Newcastle have done about their UK owner if they had any bother with him? ^ Singlig a shit owner out due to them having X nationality only serve to make it harder to oust them. They're shit owners because they're shit, so the focus should be on what shit they do as owners - not where they're from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
