even at 2nil its edgy tho theyre having chances too

raylor!!!!

how can it take 3 weeks to get the results? surely its not rocket science....

funny how the video link i posted has since been made private, the mackem idiot obviously realised that it would only back the police up.

really cant see krul leaving tbh i honestly think he likes it here as deluded as that may be!

been reading the smb stuff on this for the past hour or so and its funny how theyre playing the we did nothing wrong card but seem to have little (no) evidence to show that. However one the turkeys over there has uploaded a bit when a few mags come into the station and say something but dont approach the mackems and look at these fans who werent being aggressive or looking for a fight chase after them and storm towards them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vt5FQQlslRo...re=channel_page Idiots the lot of them

why wouldnt it work? were shit enuff without our 12th man, realisitcally losing most home games

As the topic title says, would it be possible to force Ashley to sell if this dragged on any longer? For example if we all boycotted the ground (before you say is yes i have paid for a 3 yr season ticket upfront last year). Therefore leaving the team to play home games in a empty stadium inevitably losing and losing away from home is the norm anyway. If this was the case surely ashley would sell before another relagation thus lessaning the value of the club further. Now this sounds totally drastic and mad and you would need 75% of supporters backing to do this and make it work. Or the otherside of the coin is he would just call in the administrators and it would backfire. In all honesty im fed up with it all. The blokes the biggest prick i know hes filled us with bullshit since he came in pretending to be our pals but just repeatedly stabs us all in the back. hes employed the worst manager in our history in JFK (yes worse the gullit) Who has embarassed us with his awful press confrenece and offeneded us since leaving with his delusions of grandeur comments. Oh before any negative comments ive been going home and away for 10 years now pretty much everygame (have the away season ticket) so im not a fairweather fan im just sick ashley laughing at me and taking advantage of my love the newcastle Any thoughts?

the times this morning http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/foo...icle6739474.ece - ashley staying the times tonight http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/foo...icle6740830.ece - being advised to sell no idea what to think

i dont kno why but the times arent like the sun and the mirror who publish utter rubbish the times generally do stories with substance seen as the people who read it prefer decent news even if boring opposed to entertaining bullshit

Ashley owes us this after fucking the club over. Can see him royally fcking us off just bcos hes so good at it tho Fingers and toes crossed

ive got another 2 years left on my season ticket but theres no way im going if kinnears in charge after all he wouldnt want my "deluded" support . w*nker

In tomorrows Sun Bobby didn’t blame Ashley ... his big disappointment was Wise! IT was just a few weeks before his death I saw my old friend for the last time. Five bouts of cancer and innumerable chemotherapy treatments had left him confined to his wheelchair. His mind was as sharp as a pin but, he confided, his body was letting him down. It was a hard thing for a sportsman to take, especially one of his stature - a man the entire world of football loved. It was then I knew the long battle was nearing its conclusion. My tear was quickly and discreetly wiped away because there was not a grain of self-pity in the man. And after we had enjoyed a picnic lunch (along with a glass or two of red wine) with his ever-loyal wife Elsie, he gave me a tour of his beloved, renovated house in Durham - within striking distance of St James' Park and the Durham County Ground. After his family, the foundation he set up in his name and devoted so much time to, cricket and football still dominated his life and his conversations - especially Newcastle United and how hurt he was at their demise under the present regime. But then football has always dominated every conversation I have ever had with Bobby all over the globe. And, I have to confess, I never got tired of listening to a man who truly loved the game with a great passion. This was no high-powered interview with tape recorders and cameras. In fact there was not even a pencil and a notebook. There were just quiet reminiscences as we sat in his beautiful lounge designed by Lady Elsie and then, in his wheelchair, a guided tour through a long corridor of signed photographs charting the life of one of the best-known names in the long history of the global game. The passion was still as strong and powerful as ever. But the smiles and glow as he talked about Durham and England cricket (he was a very good cricketer himself) turned into a scowl and a frown as we returned, inevitably, to the subject of Newcastle United. He revealed he was not surprised, only deeply hurt, by the relegation of the club he had supported as a child - travelling from his village of Sacriston in Durham to the ground with his miner father Phillip - and eventually managed, realising another dream. "I don't blame the chairman Mike Ashley," he confided somewhat surprisingly. "He had the club at heart and wanted success as much as I did but his great mistakes were in those he gathered around him. "My biggest disappointment was in Dennis Wise, a director of football who was hardly seen at the ground and who brought in players who were neither suitable nor right for Newcastle United. "I forgive most people but I am not sure I can forgive Wise for what he did to my club." This was a rare attack from a man who forgave all those people who aimed poisonous barbs in his direction - particularly when he was managing England for eight years, taking them to a World Cup quarter-final and a semi-final, the furthest any manager of the national side has gone away from our own shores. There were a few he could have pointed a finger at. Colleagues of mine who allowed their editors to rule their hearts and penned poisonous pieces to aid a tabloid war rather than impart the truth. Chairmen, particularly Freddy Shepherd who sacked him four games into a new season, and others who failed to keep their promises. Even players he loved who whispered behind his back and let him down. He laughed when I reminded him of his forgiving nature and said: "I guess I will be the same about Wise - eventually!" I guess if he could forgive Shepherd for what he did to him, he could forgive anybody for anything - including Wise. His passion about Newcastle United and England remained undimmed to the end. The future, so blurred for him personally, was not a problem for Newcastle, as he said: "Look, they may have a problem for a season or two until they settle down, but with the wonderful, unflinching support and the fabulous ground they have, they will soon be back. "They should, however, take warning of what has happened to Leeds United, who are still trying to scramble out of what I would call the third division. "They have the same sort of huge, loyal support as Newcastle and they have learned to take nothing for granted. "Newcastle should, as soon as possible, appoint Alan Shearer as manager. "I know he wants the job and he is a local man who can rally the support and motivate the players, providing he has the right men around him to coach and bring the players along. "They say that the Newcastle fans are too demanding. "But all they want is a football team to play at the top level and produce the sort of attacking football they love to watch. "Of course they would love to be European champions but they are realists. "God knows they have had enough practice!" Sir Bobby always advocated an English manager for the English team. But he was pleasantly surprised at the progress made under Italian Fabio Capello, telling me: "What a decent man he seems to be. "I like him and I like what he has done with the England team and the way he has gone about qualifying for the World Cup." England, of course, remained his enduring love. And despite the way the FA treated him, he was always first in the queue to offer his services - no matter how temporarily - when they found themselves in a scrape after his departure. He always called it the "best job in the world". The FA can, at last, return his loyalty by giving him the sort of send off he so richly deserves at a memorial service, probably in Durham, in the early autumn. It will have to be by invitation only because if they opened it up to all those who love this man, Wembley Stadium would not be big enough.

any1 watch the bbc1 tribute to bobby robson? what a tear jerker.. Dont think any of us realised how good we had it at the time

seems odd rejecting the bid like, no lescott for everton today after he picked up a "knock". That would suggest hes going to city... So for newcastle to reject the bid seems really odd. Arsenal would'nt offer more than 10m i dont think. But then again hughton sais he would play his team that would start against west brom today so if theres no bassong that means he is leaving just a matter of more money.

hate to burst the bubble like but if there is something going on the papers havnt got a sniff of it. Shearer back at BBC after Newcastle snub: Ashley can't find buyer for troubled Toon Alan Shearer has confirmed that he will be back at the BBC next season and will not return to St James' Park to resume his role as manager of relegated Newcastle United. On a poignant weekend when fans paid tribute at the stadium to former manager Sir Bobby Robson, the club he loved slid into a deeper crisis as it became apparent club owner Mike Ashley is now unlikely to find a new buyer. Shearer, whose eight games in charge failed to prevent relegation, confirmed he will see United kick-off their opening Championship match at West Bromwich next Saturday from a BBC studio as a TV pundit. 'At this moment that's what I'll be doing, talking about the match which is live on television,' he said. 'Of course, things can change but I've heard nothing from anybody at Newcastle. I've another year of my BBC contract and obviously I've got to think about the future.' Although Keith Harris, chairman of investment bank Seymour Pierce, is negotiating with an unidentified foreign buyer thought to be a financial services company, sources close to the deal admit there is a strong possibility it may not go through. Harris, appointed by Ashley to find a buyer, returns from holiday next week. But discussions with the potential buyer have been slow and there are growing doubts about the deal. The club are hampered by a wage bill that last year cost £65million and although Michael Owen has moved to Manchester United, there are still at least eight players on more than £65,000 a week. Projected income for next season is not expected to cover wages and although Harris has dismissed the prospect of going into administration, the inability to sell highly-paid players is a stumbling block. Caretaker boss Chris Hughton will be in charge at The Hawthorns, barring a dramatic breakthrough in sale negotiations. Harris was not concerned by the withdrawal of the Profitable Group last week as they were not seen as serious bidders but unless the anonymous foreign buyer shows intent soon, Newcastle will spend another season under the reluctant ownership of Ashley.

is west brom away a sellout?

abolutely devastated

no potential buyer would sanction ashley selling any1 as the players make up the value of the club. so i can only assume either sale on or no sales hence selling players. but with the rumour today it could all fit into place but nothin ever goes to plan here

Is ashley has sold martins and is pocketing the money then theres no sale however if the sale is arranged that would mean the embargo has been lifted and the money will go in the kitty for new owners

whats the source i keep getting texts with no source

sodjes brother play for stevenage and he failed a medical at leeds 2 weeks ago so that move fell through :/

Totally agree. I reckon from the age of 5 to 14, 95% of my living thoughts were about football. Even worse though are blokes who just don't like football, I haven't got one male mate who is a football hater, I don't think I could have neither. How can you have a mate who doesn't like football? Makes you wonder whether football will enter a supporters decline in the next ten years or so as kids nowadays dont play it like we used to. Days for us used to be a lickabout in the playground, twice a day. Run home, get changed and straight onto the field for two hours. Finishing off after tea with an hour or so of head tennis in the street. School holidays just meant two 4 hour long games followed by tea and twice as much head tennis. Nowadays you dont see kids knocking a ball around in the street. In the summer holidays this no word of a lie, we used to play football, at least 8 hours a day, 7 days a week, I bet people think am kiddin. 3 pots in, heads and volleys, world cup singles, beat the keeper, magic, magic days, some kids still have them but it's not the same, they all have play stations and are spoilt little cunts. I had a computer but it was secondary to playing football. You could guarantee on any given day we could get 10-30 kids for a game, within a 3 to 4 age radius of me. Today there are few kids playing and it's heart breaking. The likes of Steven Gerrard, Rio and Lampard are my generation in 10 years time, if you think the conveyor belt of young talent is shite now, I think due to the fact we've become a nation of fat lazy kids, we'll be lucky to produce world class stars. Kids looked better cos we were all fit as fuck, you're only talking 20 years ago here. Spoilt cunts the lot of em. All I ever wanted was me BMX, match and shoot once a week, and enough for 10 packets of stickers. Sad how lifes went down hill since then in the name of progress. eh? thats a canny stereotype that like, the only reason you dont see kids playing football is because people have so many cars in the street in not possible to play football there anymore, get yourself to your local field in the summer and you'll see them. all kids are spoilt little cunts? wtf what a shitty post

be interesting to see if this goes through now that adebayor has signed for city

me old man watches all the reserve games reckons fergusons the best player bar kadar
