Isegrim 9733 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I pity those who still think that not only a takeover will happen but think it is imminent and Rafa will then sign a new contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Whitehurst 885 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I’ll be astonished if this takeover happens. Even if it does, I wouldn’t be surprised if Ashley retains some kind of hold over us (merchandising rights, advertising, land, or whatever). I think the next manager will indicate what he is thinking. New owners won’t want some appalling manager sitting on a long term contract that they have to pay off. Someone shite on a short term caretaker basis then positive signs that he is trying to sell. Someone shite on a long term basis then we are stuck with him until John Sitton relegates us to the conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isegrim 9733 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 He is good at offering things he won’t have to pay out, like paying for an unwanted end of season trip... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonatine 11307 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 https://www.football365.com/news/f365-says-rafa-was-mike-ashleys-route-out-of-the-high-street Quote He is so antagonistic and has been so disrespectful of the native culture that, most likely, only a sale could ever change the perception of what Newcastle are. But Benitez presented him with the perfect opportunity to distance himself in an adevantageous way and, from details reported, that wouldn’t have taken very much to achieve. Certainly not hundreds of millions of pounds every window, just the reinvestment of a healthy percentage of the television revenue and the occasional transfer deference to performance over profit. That team wouldn’t have been a contender, but it might have changed the conversation. Which is the real aim, because that’s where the real value in football club ownership is: appearing to do one thing, but actually doing another. But that’s what separates Ashley from those who have been able to convert football’s power into currency. He remains so enslaved to his high street, quick quid mentality that the game’s macro opportunities are lost on him. Benitez was such a chance and, consumed by illusory virtues like control and sell-on fees, Ashley has cut his nose off to spite his face. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17079 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 HE TOOK IT ALL AWAY He took it all away The passion that I had He did nothing that was good All of it was bad That feeling deep inside My heart bursting with Geordie pride The excitement on match day He just took it all away The very essence of being a ‘club’ He made it all pointless As he dragged our proud name repeatedly through the mud A laughing stock of the game Ever since the day he came He could not lie straight in bed You can not believe a word he says False promises season after season He took away the reason This club exists to represent the City He cares nothing of that concept Every transfer window skimping on the kitty The green bit in the middle Where the team play the game we call football To him That means nothing Holds no interest to him at all The bank account is where he’s at Profit Make no mistake of that He belittled Kevin Keegan And now Rafa....he is leaving He brought in Joe Kinnear Oh dear And even Dennis Wise Nee wonder he’s despised He drank pints with the fans Desecrated the ground with red and blue signage Adorning each and every stand Red and blue He hasn’t got a clue He cares nothing of me and you Black and white are our colours Stripes upon the top Not red and blue Representing some second rate tat sports shop History and tradition He knows nothing of what that meant He treats Tyneside and it’s people with total disregard and contempt His arrogance knows no bounds He even tried to change the name of the ground A few reasons I have stated Reasons why he’s hated Twice relegated From the Premier League And yet He’s still here I find that so hard to believe Surely The time has come to make a stand Against this arrogant and obnoxious greed diseased self indulgent man Like we would have done years ago When we were the best supporters in the land But not now No not now Because we have no battle cry As we sit and watch our famous football club Crumble and slowly die And that is what I hate most of all Not standing up for our beliefs And if that means an empty St James’s Park So be it Make a statement Thousands outside Standing on Tyneside streets Or did you never go for the cause Was all about a pint and a pie Was it never in your heart That for Newcastle United you would die It is not just about winning a football game Rolling over and being dictated to Like a lion tamed It’s about the passion It’s about identity About belonging It’s about your Geordie pride But sadly It looks that like our football club That has slowly died And I am sorry to say So sad to say We let Mike Ashley Take it all away Keith Barrett of cockney mafia flag fame.

ewerk 30266 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I imagine there will be more than one coach. The point is that they'll be club appointees rather than linked to the manager. So when Mark Hughes does get the boot it means we don't have to pay out compensation to the whole coaching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even sure Ashley is switched on enough to do that. Wasn’t it Pardew, Carver and Stone doing everything when they were here? And then when Pardew left, it was just Laurel and Hardy there giving it their all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
