Does anyone have a BBC Newcastle stream, actually? This commentary is terrible

Does anyone have a radio stream? I can't get BBC Newcastle at Uni Nvm, its showed up as on Five Live extra now

Firstly, I wouldnt personally have issued that statement, there was no need for it as it doesnt add any weight to the aim of the email therefore personally, I dont think it shopuld have been in there. At the same time though, I dont see what the big issue is, we've made it clear in the mail that we're not accusing him and we dont know if its true or not. It is however a claim that is being made by people far more knowledgable than you, me and anyone else on the Trust. So when the relevant media outlets issue the story along with their evidence then what then? Are they just a bunch of tossers shooting themselves in the foot? Nobody has said the club is making £7m per month profit, what is being alleged is that is the amount being taken from the club, the two things are totally different, if we were making £7m per month profit and Ashley took it all then Id think "twat...but its his money, his club he can technically do what he wants with it". If however, this club isnt making that kind of profit (and we all know it isnt) and £7m per month is going to Ashley then thats a totally different matter. I cant however, comment on the wheres and whys because frankly I dont know, Ive not been involved in this particular bit because of my personal circumstances at the mo, Ive been copied into stuff and Ive put my own comments in, rubber stamped stuff etc but only minimal things. I do however back the decision to do it, we have a PR person on board and what he says goes as far as Im concerned, as long as the mail came through him then I know he must have his reasons for putting it in. However, just because I wouldnt have put that out doesnt mean Im right, theres many a thing I would have done differently, in hindsight some of them would have been beneficial others would have made the organisation look even dafter. What seems a good idea one day, isnt necessarily one once its taken place. I will however take it personally when Im accused of being a clown because Im part of this, a lot of hard work has gone into this, a lot of stuff is still going on yet as usual people are willing to rip it apart because of 2 lines in an email. As this thread shows (which some see as some kind of NUST thing just because I did it) the other side of the argument (ie the club) make statements of way worse than this each day yet dont get the kind of ridicule the Trust does. Lets hope Robbie Savage doesn't read this

From what I've heard, hes pretty shit anyway.

Readings got a foot and a half plus, with more scheduled to come. I'd be very surprised if it goes ahead

Christ, you're at Reading uni? Unlucky. There's about 2 feet of snow here now. Exams have all been pushed back because of the snow. It should be a fun weekend carting all my stuff down there, anyway.

I thought you were about 45 gannin off your taste in music

Foot and a half of snow forcast for Reading, they've already had loads and i'm due to go back there for uni on Sunday

Its not all bad though - Attain will be delighted that one of our key midfielders is probably out for quite a while

Agree the last sentence totally the first bit I disagree with though, I think the likes of Taylor, Nolan, Jonas, Colo and to an extent Shola will all be on the radar for some of the "bigger" clubs in the Prem. There's bound to be some panic buying going on. Not only are we a selling club, we also seem to be push overs when it comes to negotiating ("How much? OK, it's a deal!". These days I think anybody would be sold for a 3m offer, to anybody (including Sunderland). The bargain hunters will be sniffing round. I'd add Enrique to the list. Well, if it means Ameobi is bought, I would be pretty happy. I agree. Selling all our best players is a worthy sacrifice to make if it means we'll also sell our best striker in the middle of a promotion bid. He clearly isn't. I rate all the three other strikers more than him. Most of his goals are there on a platter, any of our other strikers can put them away aswell. Let's be honest aswell, he hasn't been here most of the season either and we have done just fine. Have you seen more than about 3 of his goals this season?

3 games without a win now, as well.

We're guaranteed to be in the top two at christmas - 2/5 wins and we'll be in the top two come the new year as well.

10 points clear of 3rd if we win now

Aye, there is. Last years number one sold upwards of 500,000 - there are less than 50,000 in that group and I doubt any more than 1/3 of them will actually buy the song

Armchair Penis the second?

You just need to register (its free) to get them

Some very nice attacking options on the bench today - no excuses for anything but a win

Agent Erik?

2 very quick goals and they just fell apart, followed by a few more quick goals.. then some more..etc

5-1 now! Glad I kept Lennon in my Fantasy league team - thats 3 assists and a goal on his comeback

He's signed until the end of the season with an option to extend. Could feature against Preston

I got 3 on the account I originally registered for something to with NUSC and another 3 on the account that I actually joined with

The way we played did make them look quite good - Mackail-Smith, who was one of their best players in that game imo, is out I think, so their only real threat will be Boyd. It'll be nice to put them back in their place firmly in the relegation zone- should be comfortable victory, hopefully a clean sheet.
