Various: Mike Ashley in talks with Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed Al Nehayan

What is the other that has appeared in the last 3 years?

Rugby League Magic Weekend maybe?

Dennis Wise at it again on SSN this morning. Said some will have a go at Ashley no matter what he does. As if we're picking on poor Mike with no justification. He criticised Man Utd for them not bringing in players to close the gap on City/ keep up with Liverpool but when it came to discussing NUFC it was 'What's wrong with clever buying and selling?' or words to that effect. He went on to say 'Even Rafa said he was happy with the transfer window' overlooking the fact that Rafa can only say so much and was under an amount of duress when putting his name to that club statement last week.

"Unfortunately whatever he does, he will constantly take stick. It's as simple as that," said Wise, who spent just over a year as an executive director early in Ashley's tenure at St James' Park

"There are a lot of people out there that don't help the situation. They want to bring it onto him.

"People complain about them not spending enough money but if you trade well at a football club and you're able to bring players in and take players out and make money, I don't see what the problem is with that."

"I thought they competed extremely well against Spurs," Wise told Sky Sports News.

"I look at Newcastle and I think they're a team who will be in a comfortable position by the end of the season.

"I think Rafa's actually turned around and said they have improved their squad so that says it all really doesn't it?"

Daaaaamn Dennis, back at it again with the reprehensible bullshit.

Well thanks for making me read that drivel.

Fuck Sky. Deplorable cunts.

Always interested to hear what renowned criminal Dennis Wise has to say.

Is he still wearing that small dead rodent on his head?

SKY- Roll out the Ashley Gimps

Well reading that was a wasted minute, thanks ...

The day Ashley sells is going to be so good.

The day Ashley sells is going to be so good.

I dont think its going to be anytime soon.

Dennis Wise got a punditry job on the back of bullying someone on a reality show, now he's Sky's go to man on Mike Ashley matters. Repulsive.

"Unfortunately whatever he does, he will constantly take stick. It's as simple as that," said the impartial Salacious B. Crumb, who worked as a jester in the court of the crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure during the Galactic Civil War.

"There are a lot of people out there that don't help the situation. They want to bring it onto him." Crumb dribbled.

"People complain about them not spending enough money but if you trade well at a football club and you're able to bring players in and take players out and make money, I don't see what the problem is with that." cackled Crumb.

"I thought they competed extremely well against Spurs," Crumb told Sky Sports News.

"I look at Newcastle and I think they're a team who will be in a comfortable position by the end of the season."

"I think Rafa's actually turned around and said they have improved their squad so that says it all really doesn't it?" opined the grotesque monkey lizard.

Another little ratcunt who deserves to die a brutal and slow death.

So we've had Steve Parish, Fat Sam, Keys and Gray, Dennis Wise, those dickheads off Talksport and Shola so far.

Not exactly a who's who of relevant, respected football figures is it! Tells you everything you need to know about Keith Bishop that that's the extent of his contacts in football.

Predictions for who pipes up next?

So was that thing about protests outside SD in other cities a joke or not? I couldn't quite work it out.

Also anyone who was at the game, was the 'stand up if you hate Ashley' on a big scale?

Encouraging that it happened anyway, i think trying to organise staying in the concourse for 10-15 mins before kick off, or after half time would be a decent idea for the Chelsea game, i think more people would take part in that than a walk out.

They'll all be at the same casinos, strip clubs and golf sessions man. I mean look at the list of those people.

Every single one of them is dodgy as F.

They always ask what the problem because we'll be safe this season or words to that effect. That's the issue. Rafa and the fans don't want and are fed up respectively of just survival, they want to push for more like any fan of any club wants to do. We're just expected to be happy to tread water and even regress. Utterly sick of this whole mantra.

Surely trying to pile people into the concourse at the same time is a health and safety risk?  Some parts of the ground can barely cope with people who want to go for a piss, pint or a pie at half time.

Enter the ground 15 mins late is another idea.

Other than Parish and Shola, it's a list of people who have disgraced themselves in one way or another. These are the only types of people prepared to align themselves with Ashley.

Have we heard from Simon Jordan yet?

Sooner my contract with Sky is up and I can cancel the lot the better. Hate the bastards. If they're not acting as Ashleys mouthpiece directly they just wheel out his sympathisers to do the work for them.

Yes, I agree to some extent but the problem is that

1. the players we got came in late so they will need time to adjust. If Rondon, Schar/Sanchez and Muto had come in earlier they might have started and made us actually get something more than an honorable mention in the spurs game. We are likely to suffer at the start of the season now due to late arrivals not being fit or up to speed on our system.

2. The players we got was not on the top of Rafas list. The players he was more interested in could have been brought in if the promises of available funds were upheld

3. Yes we have improved, but so have everyone else bar Tottenham so the question is whether we have improved more than our closest rivals or not. On paper it looks like we haven't.

4. It was important for Ashley to show ambition this season to secure the future services of Benitez.
