  1. :lol: Ignoring the fact it’s a surprise to learn Elton John is a mackem, it’s fucking mental that they’re carrying on like they’re heading for promotion - the only thing that’s kept them away from relegation this season was Mowbray getting the squad to overperform early on in the season. It’s more likely they’ll be battling the drop tbh.

  2. :lol: He’s class isn’t he. As if getting the marketing department to come into the office is going to turn the club around. Everything he does is purely for external image - just meaningless gestures. 
     


    The Ashworth bit here proves Gemmill’s point, it’s just guff and bluster from a bloke that thinks he can just strong arm people into doing what he wants - which he will do within his business, the difference here though is he’s not got a fucking ounce of leverage and is dealing with people far, far richer than he is. I always find the Man U fans whinging about this funny, acting as if it’s some big issue for us when in reality Ashworth was put on leave and we immediately set about moving forward leaving him and Man U to sort it out - we’re just waiting for them to either give a proper offer or let him hang about on leave.

  3. It’s not really a surprise the media are all over our best players leaving, they’re fucking desperate.
     

    He’s clearly very happy at the club, is playing brilliant football, and said himself he joined the project. I find this story of a wage reduction for missing out on the CL to be a bit weird given that we hadn’t qualified for CL football when he signed for us (and it was a massive longshot), unless he got an increased wage and now it’s dropping? But seems a little weird to put in when signing for a club that at the time was far off CL spots. 
     

    From the clubs side he’s probably the last player we should ever think about selling. Strikers are one of the hardest positions to fill never mind one who is arguably world class (or at least heading towards that bracket).

  4. That clip is exactly why Keane is a hopeless pundit. He just calls everyone shite, it’s played out and boring tbh. The direction NUFC is heading is clear to anyone but he comes out with that patter as always.
     

    Of course plums like that mackem lass on there lap it up, without thinking through what his opinion of their club is given where NUFC are compared to most.

    Man who negotiates contract for a living complains about the contract he negotiated. Boris Johnsonesque.

    :lol: I’m really enjoying it mind. 
     

    The Man U fans are in a massive melt down how unreasonable Newcastle are being saying no one will want to work for us now. So Man U go directly to an NUFC employee, who has important insider knowledge of the club, and create a position where his role is untenable, then they launch several public attacks at Newcastle (including insulting the people running the club) before supposedly offering around 10% of his clause. In reaction to all of the above Newcastle have simply asked the terms of the contract be met, some rumours state they may have even shaved 25% off the fee (despite having no reason to do so), and this makes us unreasonable? :lol: 

     

    Maybe the correct approach would have been to show some fucking respect, approach the club immediately and negotiate from there? You know like we did with Brighton and we still ended up paying £6m and him having 8 month or so leave…

    Do you mean the Guggenheim in Bilbao marra? More proof of the relationship between the cities marra. 

    Anyway, the moron Skylon has a new "insult" for us amongst his inane lies.

    Newcamel. I mean, if he's really clever he can call us "Poocamel". Chortle. 

     

    :lol: The same idiots will call themselves classy while constantly making up racist names for the club because of the owners. 
     

    Exile has well and truly lost the plot mind :lol:. We have scored about 70 goals this season so far we don’t need to pay teams off we’re just very good going forward :lol:. You’d think someone that can play better through balls than a Brazilian international could appreciate the movement of Isak Gordon and Barnes.

    Great that Big Joe has agreed a new deal. It's imperative we keep Bruno too. He's our most important player.

     

    Just give him the captain's armband. The way he has managed to control himself these past few games to avoid picking up the final yellow card that would result in a two game suspension has been unreal - particularly as his performance levels haven't dropped. He loves it here. Make him captain - let him be the one to lift the firs trophy. 

     

    (watch him pick up a booking against Spurs now for a reckless tackle or mouthing off to the ref now)

    Agree with this. I’m buzzing Big Joe looks set to stay as he sets the aggressive tone in a lot of games, and I see him as our squads utility player as he can really play across midfield and attack. Keeping Bruno is the next key item, we absolutely have to keep him imo as it would be very hard to replace a player with his skill set - we should be building around him and moving others on to make FFP room. I think Man City looks unlikely now they look to be making their move for Paqueta, and hopefully having Joelinton commit might sway him to have another run at the CL spots next season. 

  8. :lol: Aye, nice and classy of him though rather than understanding that maybe everyone else would rather watch CL football he told the staff member to fuck off, then decided to post about this interaction thinking he was in the right?

  9. I think the best bit to all of this is I (and I’m sure most others) couldn’t give a flying fuck about Athletic Bilbao, but watching that fucking weirdo lose his head over stuff like this is brilliant.

    Sorry, can't feel sorry about his death, couldn't stand him.

    BBC1 just stated he had a "successful managerial career at Wimbledon and Newcastle". 

     

    Aye, that's right then. Lived longer than he deserved. 

    Aye, he never come across as a nice bloke so although I wouldn’t have wished it on him I’m in the same boat as you in that I’m not arsed.
