The Official Newcastle United Thread

[ellroy]

Awful last night, utterly awful

On a more positive note, Villa.

[ellroy]

Not sure what to expect against Watford, we’re safe they’re not, suspect we may lose this one.

[fathomfive]

Can't be any worse than City the other night.

[fathomfive]

fk me.

Who the fk coaches our defence?

fking useless fkwits.

[ellroy]

On a bright note, the result leaves our favourite midlanders right in the mire.

Oh dear, how sad.

[Puggit]

As a Hornet, I was so impressed by Newcastle in the first half - and feared the worst.

Not quite sure what happened, but thank you for the 3 points, almost safe.

[Chicken Chaser]

On the beach.....

Quite simple, we hate villa.

Think you may already have enough, given the run in of those below you.

[ellroy]

That was never a 3-1 game.

Played pretty well in patches, but no cutting edge up front, not sure we’ve ever said that before...........

It was the opposite of normally what happens. You guys battered us pretty much the entire game.

Not just me then? Kane is different gravy, that’s why fundamentally you are where you’ve been in recent years and we’re where we are, well that and the FCB, lack of spending etc etc etc.

Nope. And I'm sure the shots on goal stats would back it up.

Any word on the takeover? Is it waiting until the end of the season for a clean break?

[ellroy]

God only knows fella.

KSA banned the only purveyor of PL football today, so no one knows frankly. One way or the other a decision is needed that’s for sure.

True.

Is there anywhere reliable to keep up with saga? All I see is clickbait who reference other clickbait.

Not an expert, but there is a big thread on reddit r/nufc about the takeover, and it's about the best source i know of, even though its just re-posts of articles and comments from users.

Ta. I check in about once a month and it seems to be a copy of the same articles the month before only they always say "breaking - 2 hours ago".

I had a mate from Newcastle with a contact at the club and they know about as much as the fans these days.

Not sure what the Prem are playing at taking so long. They really are incompetent.

[TEKNOPUG]

Good time to be taking over now that FFP has been scrapped.

[ellroy]

I use newsnow.co.uk for pretty much any topic, you get links to journalists, blogs al sorts. That tends to be quick in terms of a tweet from so and so etc, but there’s still a lot of regurgitated bks for clicks.

Twitter, as for all things, is a hive of utter bloody nonsense.

[ellroy]

Not sure if anyone’s in or close to Ashington Tuesday morning?

Big Jack’s funeral is 9:15 so be nice for a few to be there to see him off.

[ellroy]

Yawn.
