Messi leaving Boateng on his backside.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

Man U signs Deepay. Good signing. kids got some potential.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

I hope he does well but signings from the Eredivisie are notoriously hit or miss to the extreme.

 

[Alastor]

He has to be at least better than Zaha right? That was very miss from the get go.

 

[Lee]

NORTH SHIELDS WIN!

 

[Барбоса]

Hull to score a 99th minute winner next week after West Ham pulverise Newcastle?

 

[Tastycles]

Bruce couldn't beat Man United if he was managing Brazil 1970 and United had Djemba-Djemba playing.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Is today the British, or at least Liverpudlian, equivalent of Wayne Gretzky retiring? Only Kevin Smith probably isn't going to get high and cry about it.

 

[Барбоса]

Nice to see Gerrard to go out on a typical Liverpool sob story - beaten by two goals that shouldn't have counted.

 

[Loveless]

So it's come to this, needing the Manc scum to win so Newcastle stay up? I'm not sure how much I care anymore. To be frank it's win/win either way, I'd take relegation if it means Ashley fucks off.

what makes you think relegation will make him leave?

This.

Well said.

It probably would mean less buyers interested. A billionaire is better off investing in a club currently in the 2nd tier and building the team up from scratch than a recently relegated side. That seem to be the strategy with so many of the sides there being foreign owned all hoping to win the lottery for the big pay day for a relatively minor investment.

Villa is up for sale if they wanted a club already in the premiership.

Ferguson isn't there anymore though. Bruce might forget he is facing United.

 

[Tastycles]

Mike Ashley is not going to sell Newcastle for a loss. If they go down, they are worth infinitely less.

 

[Lee]

Ashley won't sell if we go down.

 

[Loveless]

This is why I said "if"
I had high hopes that he was going to fuck off so he could buy Rangers but that's dead now. There were rumours a while back that he would sell either at the end of this season or the next, that's why a permanent manager wasn't appointed.

 

[Alastor]

Unless a billionaire wants a new play thing going up against Roman or Sheikh Mansour I doubt any new owner will be that much different than Ashley.

Club ownership is a money pit if one desire to be competitive. Owners need to buy the club and then dump close to a billion for a chance to be competitive against more established clubs. Or get hated by the fans for not investing enough.

Not really enticing unless the buyers share the same profit mentality as Ashley or investment groups, then you are back at square one.

 

[Lee]

" In the last 10 games we've been inconsistent that's for sure". Losing 9 and drawing one is not inconsistent Carver. Fuck right off.

Sterling should fire his agent. What a knob.

 

[Lee]

Why? Sterling's a knob.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

Why? Sterling's a knob.

The Agent's a knob. I'm sure Sterling's focused on the team. not the contract.

 

[Lee]

Don't be so stupid. He knocked back £100,000 a week earlier in the year. Raheem Sterling is not focused on the team but himself.

 

[Captain Morgan Freeman]

Sterling is 100% focused on himself and not the team. Whether that's right or not is a different argument. But don't kid yourself his agent wouldn't be acting this way unless Sterling wanted him to.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

Fair enough.
