It'll be the old you can't buy quality in January like you can in the summer blah blah blah. No other club would swoon over one man like those simpletons up the road do.

As someone once said on here, because he won The Champions League in the dim and distant past and managed Real Madrid, it gives them a warm, fuzzy feeling inside and a skewed idea that it renders them a big club.
It's like a businessman paying a fortune for a prossie to take to work do's, trying to convince himself as well as everyone else it's his missus and that he's still got it.

He was adked if they were going to break their transfer record in January on the radio. His response: " ask Mike Ashley"

He's a self-serving shithouse in the David Moyes mould but they're completely blind to it.

They aren’t mate. They’ve crawled that far up his arse they can’t crawl out again without looking even dumber than they do now. They’ve painted themselves into a corner good and proper.
 
He’s been given fuck all since they got back up from Ashley. He released a wedge to get them up and now they’re up he’s literally gonna spend the absolute minimum it takes. He’s just playing them like a fiddle. If they’re in trouble he’ll probably spend a bit to try and make sure they stay up but he has no interest in doing anything than keeping them breathing in the premier league. If Benitez had a pair of bollocks / set of principles he would walk, but he’d rather just make soft comments in the media the fat kernt

So you believe the Newcastle supporters are doing nothing to put off a new buyer .... fair enough.

I said maybe they are when you first raised the issue.
Maybe its putting off the types who'd come in and use it for their own ends in the way Ashley has.
Who knows. There's not gonna be a list of constortia or multi billionaires proclaiming they'd have been interested had it not been for sections of the support

What do you expect, the man's a tactical genius.

He has a cushy job until the Geordie Nation admit they're wrong or Ashley dares to sack him, neither of which will happen anytime soon.
 
I had radio 5 on and and they were previewing the mags game and a journo was taking about Rafa's 'tactical masterpiece' at Burnley (those were the exact words used). If he is such a tactical genuis how can he not do better than 0-3 at home to a team who have recently drew with Huddersfield and lost to Brighton.

You can tell his an experienced manager as he never takes any blame at all.

The mags problem was in the promotion season. Short term it went as good as could be expected, but medium and long term not so much, they brought in a lot of championship players on decent money ... we talk about their supposed low budget, but I imagine they will have a higher wage bill than 6/7 clubs in the premier league. It’s no wonder they aren’t making a lot of ‘big’ signings. Ashley reinvested when they went down, he could so easily have reigned it in. The likes of Diame, Perez, Ritchie, Yedlin will all be on more money than their ability warrants

Was there not an article recently showing their wage bill was the 4th lowest?

Never mind proclamations, from unknown people, etc .... what's you opinion, do the protesters put off prospective buyers?

I love the fat bastard. He’s got them beat all ends up. Every time they try something he just laughs that little bit harder. They have absolutely no answer to him.

I agree especially now they have Rafa. They've got absolutely nowt to say, but are desperate to say something :lol:

The mags would of went bust (burst) without him. The previous regime had the club (clerb) right in the shit trying to live the dream of one of Europe's elite and Ashley single handily saved them. I hope he takes the daft scruffy twats to the cleaners!

I've got an increasing feeeling he will.

They get sweets and don't have to serve anyone. Win-win.

Incredible really - sky in their match build up were interviewing mags talking about how good ki is. Fantastic summer signing from Rafa. Better than shelvey. No consideration of the fact Ashley has signed them both and paying both of their wages - all about Rafa man. Football legend

McLaren signed Shelvey as well. If a signing pays off, Rafa is a genius, if it doesn't, its Lee f***ing Charnley interfering.
 
Bought the chronicle the othe day
Why you may ask...because I was offered two free advent calendars with it! :lol:

Anyways - Ryder seems to write almost all the articles! In one Rafa says it’s easier to play when you have “52000 supporting you”

So presumably the away fans also support the mags when they go to st James s???

I genuinely don't know, perhaps some might be, but I don't think it would put off anybody serious. I'd think that if you were looking to invest in a football club you take is as read that there will be times fans aren't happy. Newcastle aren't the first set of disgruntled fans trying affect change and certainly won't be the last.
If fan unrest was enough to quell the interest of any potential buyers then they're clearly not the right people to be involved in a football club.
There's thousands of times where fans have protested at the way a club is being ran, so if you were looking to invest in a club (Newcastle, in this instance) and fans voicing their dissatisfaction at things comes as a surprise and is enough to put you off then clearly being involved in football is not your thing.

Unrest?

Haway man, these are people issuing death threats, posting on social media that they wished the owner had died in the helicopter crash, stalking him on a night out, protesting outside his business, etc,, etc, etc ..... that's not 'a bit of unrest' ffs :lol:
 
Nowts changed after today's result even after the the last 3 wins the mags were in a relegation battle then and they are now.

It will go to the last few games and they will be in the mix with 6 other teams imo

Yes when they win a couple of games you will get a few of the usual mag fucktards on here who suddenly appear but when they lose they soon fuck off the spineless cowardly gimps
