Fair play to them though.. they were never going to buy a share of the club but if going to a good cause. Well done lads!

Aye strained mine a bit too :lol: It's puzzling how they put all that effort into making some decent stuff with the promotion and the website was canny before it ended. Yet this is summit a 10 year old would do in a basic webpage editor or even Microsoft Word.

I see the pledge has ended and you have to say well done to raising £210,000 for charities 👏

Bad colour contrast to choose for the announcement. After the initial surge of pledges it was clear wouldn't raise as much as some thought. After all that, it's less than £4 for each of the 55,000 screaming fans (anar). In reality it was a few thousand members donating monthly and nowhere near the amount of members that some thought they would get joining the scheme.

Again, piss taking aside it's not to be sniffed at as they've still done really well. Hopefully they get some additional money from the owners to also go to whatever charities so again well done to those who contributed 👏

Good that charities will benefit which we knew along but make no mistake this was for nothing other then massaging a few egos. Bit of a power struggle amongst the fanbase Wraith on one side and the Nufc trust on the other. It was classic one-upmanship there was no way any buyer was going to give up 1% of the club.

So "This club is NOT our club"

Their new owners have been absolutely clueless, if an SMB consortium had took them over we couldn't have done a better job.

They took weeks to sack Bruce, they couldn't attract a decent manager and ended up with one that was out of work who's main credential was he turns up for work before the milkman.

They haven't appointed a director of football and are seemingly making all the football decisions themselves (what experience do Manda, her hubby and Reubens have of running a football club) they've spent a load of cash on a right back paying him 10 times more than some of his team mates (I estimate).

They've spent a huge sum of cash on an ageing striker who is in a terrible run of form and that deal's main aim appears to be to weaken the mighty Burnley - a knockout blow to a relegation rival. They appointed a consultant to help work on transfers during the January window and have disposed of his services just as quick. They've entered the sanctum of the dressing room which isn't usually the done thing and just as quick as a trip to Saudi Arabia was announced it appears to been cancelled.

I wouldn't rule out Howe getting the chop (not literally on this occaison) and a vanity appointment of Rafa to happen very soon.

They are a mess and unless they get very very lucky, they are going down.

Not having a DoF as the first appointment is certainly the biggest error thus far.

And he’s 29! Shite and only going there for the cash? Hahaha this has QPR 2013 all over it like haha

I have read so many conflicting reports of this fella. He is either rock solid and exactly what we need or an error strewn donkey thus no better than what we have. Being 29 doesn’t worry me as much as he might be shite.

Love this bit :)

"I think they'll get Diego Carlos over the line from Sevilla because everyone has their price at Sevilla, because he'll be cheaper than Sven Botman, because him and his entourage are absolutely astonished by the size of the contract Newcastle have put on the table.

"It's potentially life-changing for him at nearly 29 years old.

The ar*e wipes that run the league are the ar*e wipes that run the football businesses.

The bigger businesses can do what they like and then so can the smaller ones.

He lacked pace.

If he'd had a change of gear the world was his lobster
