Aye it's all a pile of shite. No wonder Rafa says "he doesn't talk about transfers or a takeover" because he knows there's nothing there & he's been done over again. I just wish he'd come out & say it maybe the penny would then drop for the majority of match goers.

Stolen from the comments section of The Mag Jan 1st: Rafa: Lee, any idea what my budget is yet? Charnley: Sorry Rafa, ring me in three days. Jan 4th: Rafa: Hey Lee, any update on my budget, I need to start looking at players? Charnley: Er, I'm Skyping Mike after the Blackburn game. Call me on Monday. Jan 7th: Rafa: Hi Lee, what did Mike say last week? Charnley: He said that America is great and the weather is canny. Call me next Monday. Jan 14th: Rafa: Lee, this is urgent. We're halfway through the window and I don't know my budget. I need to look at getting a couple of deals done. Charnley: Sorry, I'm watching Looney Tunes on a dvd Mike got me for Xmas. Call me a week Friday and I'll have you're answer. Jan 25th: Rafa: Right Lee, I've identified two players, I just need to know the budget. Charnley: Er, Mike said 'No money' I'm afraid. Repeat every January transfer window . .

Next 4 premiership games Chelsea (a) Cardiff (h) Man City (h) Spurs (a) No new signings this window, club relegated & Rafa away in May the club's ruined. Happy new year my arse fanks Mike you utter bastard

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/newcastle-uniteds-january-transfer-planning-13790768 Newcastle have been dealt a double new year body-blow, with takeover talks on the verge of collapse and plans for the imminent January transfer window non-existent. Beleaguered Toon fans believed a new owner at St James’ Park would provide manager Rafa Benitez with transfer funds and give the club a fresh impetus. But hopes that unpopular owner Mike Ashley might sell-up soon have been dashed — NONE of the four suitors has ready cash to do a deal.

Shelvey needs a good kick in the nuts for allowing his man to score the equaliser. He jogged back without a care in the world as the ball went in the net.

He's asset stripped the team in front of our eyes

3-0 easy win for Watford there could be trouble ahead.

Ashley's not selling man Rafa's away in 5 months

Rafa has now publicly said there are no transfers lined up for the begining of January & he's worried. Maybe this is why he said this the other day... "For me it is very clear, I know what is coming & i know were we are" The penny has finally dropped I expect him to up the ante against Ashley now as he knows he's bugger all to lose

Nothing lined up for the start of January, Rafa's worried & Ashley's on holiday what a fucking mess

We''re goosed

Aye I'm due a lottery win as well

You can get odds of 14/1 to 22/1 for a Newcastle win

I'm expecting a severe thrashing 5-0 sorry lads I can't see anything else

This line “For me it is very clear…I know what is coming now and I know where we are" I read that as A hard run of games & little or no budget.

Rafa Benitez: “A game like this (draw with Fulham) is confirmation of what I (already) know. “Even if we strengthen in January it will be a miracle if we stay up. “If we can be better than three teams it will be another miracle. “For me it is very clear…I know what is coming now and I know where we are. “You can see the team is trying a lot of things but still it is not enough to get the points.”

Shocking at home today & we couldn't beat the team who are bottom of the league. We've now got 3 hard games in 7 days Liverpool (a) Watford (a) Man Utd (h) We could be in a lot of trouble by the end of the Man Utd game today was definitely a case of 2 points dropped

End joy Tom

From Rafa's presser today Clark, Shelvey & Darlow are out Fernandez is back No news on transfers No news on takeover Ki's away after the Fulham game

Yeah before speaking about Newcastle he spoke about SD & House Of Fraser very fluently. Then suddenly he changed the subject to selling Newcastle & he turned into a bumbling idiot stuttering & stammering his words grinning like a fool. You could tell he was telling a pack of lies making it up on the spur of the moment.

Oh & nobody's met his asking price either so with that he's fucked off on holiday.
