Alexander Isak

[Alex 36155]

Dougle describing a completely factual, practically unarguable post as one of the biggest fallacies in football raised a chuckle on a bit of a shitty day

Aye it does feel a little like that. The chaos in the summer showed we're not as well run as we thought and a lot of the decision making does seem to be very slow. 

To be fair, Eales and Ashworth's departures came kind of out of the blue. 

[Rayvin 5688]

I may be in a minority in this but I remain a bit gutted about Ashworth. He may be a cunt but he's clearly a very talented one who has brought in some great players for us in the short time he was here. Real loss that one.

[ewerk 32192]

How many successful signings were down to Ashworth? He himself admitted that recruitment wasn’t his specific field.

Yet Man U sacked him after a couple of months and lost a few million on him. Strange isn't it?

I've put that down to Man Utd being a trainwreck of a club more than him. Like I'm not defending him at all, the guy is every bit the snake people are claiming... just thought he actually did pretty well at the same time. Which is a shame.

Unless of course this is true, which would make me feel more confident. But then who is behind it?

Yeah those the club can't be blamed for, I was thinking more about the sudden Staveley departure and the PSR sales plus the touting of Gordon. While all that might have been necessary/inevitable it felt very rushed and out of the blue.

This is true, felt like someone at the club woke up and thought "fuck me, we're not compliant" 2 days before the deadline.

If the rumours are to be believed it might have been Howe, who was acting as a traditional manager/dof with assistance from Amanda during the transfer windows before Ashworth arrived. And Howe’s reluctance to cede power prompted Ashworth’s departure and the management restructuring we saw last summer when Mitchell's arrival and Howe uttering rare public words of consternation. He’s usually the diplomat

....but anyway, I think the train wreck theory is likely to be the most correct.

Their accountants might of the same standard as Toontastic's.

To be fair I think that the sudden and unprecedented changes to the sponsorship rules brought in to stymie our progress would have caught the club off guard and meant we were forced into a selling position earlier than we would have liked/expected.

dunno if this has already been posted elsewhere?

anyway, if you want insight in to why the mackems hate downie so much and even feel a little sympathetic to their stance, watch him try to defend his mate mark mcadam here. the patronising sweaty cunt.

He's used to interacting with dip shits on twitter which probably explains his patronising, playschool patter, 'Hey guys, if you look through the round window you'll see my colleague, mark, was just speaking off the top of his head, there's no sky agenda guys!' fuck off, man.  (I'm sure that'll have went down well with anyone of his managerial team or friends at sky who seen it on his twatter feed though).

I’ve read as many of the comments as I can be arsed to and not one single one accepting his bullshit. What a patronising joker.

We have long memories mate.

And you know the actual posting of this video is part of this sky agenda.

Fuck Off man.

When Guehi wins a header or makes a tackle do we ever get, "here's why Newcastle wanted him"?

 

Only real reason they had any need to mention Arsenal in that video would have been at the time, we were moving within 4 points of them.

I am a little surprised that when Guehi does something homophobic with an armband Sky aren't pointing out that's why the Saudis wanted him.

"Hi guys, today if we look through the square window we have Gary Neville discussing what Rubin Amorim's options are and what impact has Sir Jim Ratcliffe had on getting 'United' back where they belong. In the round window we have Jamie Carragher taking a deep dive into what an amazing job Arne Slot has done in carrying on the fantastic legacy of the cuddly Jürgen Klopp. In the rectangle window we have Paul Merson rambling incoherently about Alexander Isak going to the Arsenal and what a t'riffic move that would be for everyone involved but probably not noocarsull who 'eed then worry abaht if he's honest with ya. Anyone still here who supports Newcastle, guys, there's no agenda here at sky, we love all the teams and report on them all equally and fairly. If you go on our YouTube channel through the triangle window there's a YouTube podcaster asking Dan Burn and Sean Longstaff a few jokey questions for ten minutes because that's all you're good for and we haven't got time to put it on our actual sports channels. Love you, guys!"

Remember when they made a huge thing about Burn and Fraser coming out the tunnel together every game because one was tall and the other was a midget? They sat them down for a massively important discussion about it and not once asked them about the turnaround in performances that led us away from relegation.

No one in the football media is willing to admit that they consider Arsenal to be more entitled to a player of Isak’s quality than Newcastle are.  They can say they’re just repeating what Arsenal fans are saying with a degree of justification but they know deep down it’s about that word;  “entitled” … Arsenal are entitled to have world class footballers in a way Newcastle  aren’t . And if Newcastle just luck upon someone of that quality they must immediately be sold to the likes of Arsenal. That’s just the world they live in and it’s killing them all, media and fans alike, that it’s not the case this time round.

Can't even bother clicking on the link and giving this prick more views.

Looks like Arsenal are going to get Watkins. Bet it still doesn't stop the incessant Isak talk. 

[Alex 36155]

As well being run of the mill lazy journalism, the Thierry Henry comparisons are a reminder that Isak is the sort of player that should be playing for Arsenal / Arsenal are the sort of club Isak should be playing for. 

[Dr Gloom 23013]

Watkins should do well for them. Not in the same league as Alexander the Great though
