Howay

Aye that’s it, how would a court ever uphold an agreement that was essentially worthless? He clearly entered into that clause in bad faith by presenting it as a sponsorship when it absolutely was not, the new owners accepted at face value that it was a sponsorship (no matter how low paid) with the little due diligence Ashley allowed them and then discovered in actuality there was no sponsorship. So either, as Craig noted, there was a contract that had payment stipulations and by not paying it the sponsor was in breach, or he misrepresented the use of signage as a sponsorship. The comments from her that he’s alleging are insulting towards him btw he’s pathetic. I hope she counter sues and they proceed to employ some forensic accountants to go through the entirety of his ownership to find any other misrepresentations he’s made and sue the cunt for those as well.

Very convenient timing on the sale of a percentage to trust fund boy #2 . Absolutely stitched the dope up there, selling him a non-controlling stake while having him foot the lions share of the liability. It’s also extremely telling that Donald and Methven are saying they’d sell at the same rate they sold prior percentages yet neither of Sartori or Dreyfus seemingly have interest in buying them out, either they don’t have the funds, or Donald is lying and wants to hold his shares praying that they fluke a promotion. He sold to Dreyfus out of necessity as he doesn’t have the money to cover that court case, this is actually getting worse by the day for them.

William Storey saying he has a team btw . Clearly him moving his milk crate around the upturned bin he’s using as a table and changing his voice to pretend he’s other people, the total fucking lunatic. I can’t agree more with what you’re all saying, it’s why I’ve long laughed when they call us obsessed whenever we discuss them - their obsession effects how they view their clubs achievement, if we both got relegated from the PL but they had finished bottom our fan base would take no solace in that, but if it was the other way round they absolutely would. I mean the fact they put ANY stock into this Storey bloke is 100% due to the fact he insults NUFC and the fan base fairly regularly, if he wasn’t doing that they’d likely ignore him.

Finished work and I couldn’t resist a look on twitter and that eyesore forum of theirs. Fuck me it’s hilarious. I saw a post about how they should protest, which of course led to “that’s what them up the road do”. It led to the amazing exchange below nowt like being a pedantic cunt about grammar when you made the exact same error first.

I assume they asked similar Sunderland themed questions such as “ ‘ow many chickin fuckin dippahs can yi eat in one goooahh before yi fill ya strides”, “ ‘ow much blue drink can yi drink before ya piss ya kegs”, “what’s the furthest yi ever hockled”, and “warrabout the scope charity shop in the Bridges makes it so much bettah then pooondland in the bridges?”.

What a bunch of fucking mugs doing that by the way. I was bad laughing at the time, but fuck me it’s even funnier now looking back knowing full well there wasn’t even a hint of trying to foster togetherness or community or whatever bullshit the mackems thought it was, it simply that the owner has no fucking money but needed some seats put in

Aye, agreed. I was similarly underwhelmed by his appointment but he’s doing a good job so far, and is a really likeable bloke. He’s also clearly knows what a big chance this is for him, as well as us, so he’s working his bollocks off and putting everything into the role. He of course has a long way to go to reach the level of manager for where our owners want the club to be, but the same can be said for the entire club, he’s young and I think he has shown he’s improving (we’re showing more defensive solidarity than his Bournemouth sides). Traditionally recruitment has been the thing leveled at him as a negative, and now seemingly that’s been taken out of his hands to a degree meaning he can focus on coaching. I’d personally love to have a manager grow with the club as we go on to win things, hopefully it’s him.

I would actually feel sorry for them if they hadn’t acted like they have towards us in recent years. This is incredibly bad news for them. It’s proof of what I thought was happening. Donald has basically gutted the club to turn a profit. He bought them using their own parachute payments, so that money which would have given them so much ammunition to go back up was instead funneled into Shorts pocket. He has since sold off small %’s of the club, pocketing whatever money he is given, and they are now left in a situation where they are owned by him, his mate, and two trust fund day trippers - no one having any impetus to invest any money into the club due to the percentages owned. The only thing the club will have to spend going forward is anything generated, meaning, they’re a League One side now, there is nothing in the coffers that will allow them to outspend and nothing coming in from owners. The hilarity is that’s best case scenario, it’s still very possible these chancers will be bleeding the club for what little it can raise (see their point about Youth Players). Diddums. “But theyyaahh not in the prumiahhh leyyygue weeeyyahhh” stupid fucking cunts, enjoy it.

If only it was possible to have saw this coming. They really are a gift.

Mackems really exemplify why they call themselves classy every day. Add it to the list.

She also rang into one of the BBC radio stations after the takeover to fight against all of the Saudi Arabia issues by saying that countries can’t buy/own companies . I could hear the host of the show kind of stuttering when she kept repeating it but he clearly just didn’t want to discuss it and gave it the “thanks for the call”. Iirc she’s the lass that wrote the letter to Masters and made a big show of it with Wraith and them outside the PL headquarters

Honestly when you look at the fixtures of the three bottom bitches they’ll all struggle to get to 30 points, Leeds and Brentford are in absolute free fall, and the games you’d say were winnable for all of them are each other. I don’t think we need many more points tbh, Trippier is a massive blow but the way Burn looked and Targett back we should still be hard to break down and pick up points in most games. I think we need to average about 1 point per game to hit 35 points, which should be doable and would see us comfortable.

It’s going to be shite watching Bruno Guimeraes and Kieran Trippier every week tbf. Im glad he can enjoy watching Stan Hutchins and Billy Hanley, or whatever part time brickie plays CM for them as he will be watching players of that level for years. You can almost hear it now “football isn’t about watching world class players every week, it’s about being able to have a pint with the players after in the labor club”.

Aye, also it’s already not happening that way is it? Trippier has been immense since coming, Burn motm today, Wood has played his part well, and all the players we have had prior to the window have seen a massive uptick in work rate and desire. Keep deluding yourselves and burying your head in the sand though mackems, I’m sure it’ll go exactly the way they imagine .

Allegedly proud supporter of animal abuse Oliver Holt must be spitting feathers at the abuse Zouma received.

Aye, gave the ball away under zero pressure then almost played him onside can’t wait until he goes the way of Clark.

Krafth is a woeful fucking player btw. What a massive massive result that was for us, after my initial worry about Shelvey I though he had a really good game, Burn man of the match though what a debut.

The commentators here were saying similar about Gerrard. I guess in his pre match conference there was a lot of talk about how he must love going to Newcastle as it’s always a good result for him, when in reality he only lost more games away to Chelsea and Manchester United than us. But aye people can keep spouting utter twaddle.

Our CM is absolutely knackered and both on yellows, does Howe not rate Bruno or something? I know it’s our last sub but fucking hell it’s worth the risk with 6 minutes to go.

We need a sub here. We look absolutely knackered in CM

I’d sub Joelinton here. He won’t be far off a second yellow, the way the ref is giving them free kicks for nowt.

Aye, I’d have made a similar move when Trippier went off, put Fraser at RB push Willock up and put Bruno on. I don’t see the point in playing Krafth, he’s absolutely fucking hopeless - genuinely competes with Clark for most inept on our books.

Delicious

It’s funny how every team we play recently is having an off day, or they need to do better etc when the game is discussed. No credit to our side then? Definitely all just due to the opposition side being poor isn’t it?
