  1. Yeah I’d agree with that. Another reason to have got rid of Jones. Get a complete clean slate coaching wise and not have current team selections influenced by those that have presided over the farce over the last 12 months and before.
  2. Heard rumours (not on here) that the reason he was dropped completely was because he was suspected of being ‘the mole’ leaking things to the press that Brucey had been moaning about. You have to think it was something non-performance related as he was dropped from the whole squad and vague, nonsense answer given by Jones when trying to explain his absence. He is probably our best defender and as has been mentioned his leadership at the back has also been missed.
  3. This is the same owner who hasn’t yet refunded direct debit payments made by Newcastle fans in respect to unused season tickets for 20/21. Shameless. No doubt Mimms has a source predicting. After saying he wasn’t going to be posting owt yesterday after a bit of questioning of his reliability as a source he’s then gone all in with saying he expects positive news and #cans. My take is maybe knew the statement was not takeover related but decided to imply it was and going further re : #cans in a bit of a 2 fingers to those that doubted him. Hope I’m wrong.
  4. Only way Ashley goes is if we have an extended period outside the premier league. Looking at his tenure it’s only when we’ve either been down or in grave danger of being down that he’s actually invested and become involved. You could argue the appointment of Rafa himself was to desperately avoid the impending relegation that season. The worry would be that we go down, we come straight back up and it’s rinse and repeat.
  5. Anyone read this crap? https://www.themag.co.uk/2017/08/im-no-mike-ashley-apologist-but-what-about-the-man-who-picks-the-team-newcastle-united-rafa-benitez/
  6. Andros Townsend and his lass on train down to Londons Kings Cross.
  7. Don't see anything wrong in what he has said in that article tbh. He explains that he was fully aware of "the agenda" at Newcastle, just that he prefers full control as he has at Palace. As for not mentioning it whilst here we all know he wasn't going to jeopardise his position by openly critisising the clubs transfer policy. I'd rather he come out with this, it further confirms to the general footballing community how the clubs transfer policy is all about furthering the clubs agenda of signing players that an be sold at a profit rather than for the needs of the team. Hopefully cranking up further pressure on the owner.
  8. Have a read of this, it's hilarious. http://www.nufcblog.com/2014/02/03/mike-ashleys-new-five-year-plan-for-newcatsle/
  9. A mackem mate text me. As I say hope it's not true and not trying to say its from any kind of reliable source.
  10. Heard PDC has been sacked. Hope it's not true.
  11. Is there anywhere I can get better highlights e.g. Football first highlights on the web?
