Made his feelings about Mike Ashley very clear Not sure why, but he's more than fair when it comes to NUFC and the supporters. Heard a good show he did where he invited opinions on the NUFC/situation from his guests, heard them out then dismantled them one by one quite deftly and with facts that most other media people simply don't bother their arses to research. Also heard a podcast of his with Keith Gillespie which was a canny listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19735 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 44 minutes ago, The Fish said: Couple of reasons; I don't think we'll get a Man City type takeover, more likely to be a wealthy investor that propels us into the top 6 or 7 spots. Even if we did get a Man City type takeover, we'd be joining a group of 4 clubs going for the title and everyone else has a headstart on us, so it would be years of heavy investment to get there. I mean Chelsea, Man City and Man Utd have spent £1bn on players since 2003. We'd be stymied by a combination of their existing strength, FFP and so on. point one - that's your hunch but it's pure speculation. nobody knows what we'll end up with. point two - perhaps, but we already have a world class manager who has won trophies pretty much everywhere he's been and at clubs like liverpool and valencia, who competed with clubs with bigger budgets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12736 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I see “Rich Energy” has said that this is 100% NOT happening. You dig deeper and see that, surprise surprise, Steve Wraith is an “ambassador” for them and is currently using Rob Lee’s Twitter account (that he runs) to get some extra eyes on this place he’s...ambassadoring. What a twat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but what's honestly more likely? the Maktoums taking us over and flooding the coffers with £1bn worth of playing staff, or something more modest? Those top clubs already have top managers too.

It was an awards ceremony where he was the compare and said he absolutely loves the Geordies and they deserve so much better! Left his job at Talksport as he refused to work for a company owned by Murdoch. Seems like a decent lad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the accent that put some off, so it was. I don't mind him at all which is a big compliment these days with some of the knackers, gimps and arseholes polluting our football shows.

LooneyToony 41 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 t shrinks my liver, doesn't it, Alex?! It pickles my kidneys, yes. But what does it do to my mind? It tosses the sandbags overboard so the balloon can soar. Suddenly, I'm above the ordinary. I'm competent, supremely competent. I'm walking a tightrope over Niagara Falls. I'm one of the great ones. I'm Michelangelo, molding the beard of Moses. I'm Van Gogh, painting pure sunlight. I'm Horowitz, playing the Emperor Concerto. I'm John Barrymore before the movies got him by the throat. I'm Jesse James and his two brothers — all three of 'em. I'm W. Shakespeare. And out there it's not Third Avenue any longer: it's the Nile, Alex, the Nile — and down it moves the barge of Cleopatra.
