I know Newcastle have always been quite baffling, but what a mess they are getting into ahead of the season.
Perez & Rondon lost, two months spent negotiating with Rafa only for him to leave & now in talks with Bruce but not stumping up the compo & he is still taking training at Wednesday. All while the season starts in 24 days.
They are in China for the Asia Trophy. I wonder who they've got out there. Presumably players like Matt Ritchie are hoping to put themselves in the shop window.
I remember going to Newcastle a while back, we scored twice in the last two minutes to earn a draw. On the way out my mate, who had a West Ham scarf on, was punched in the face by two Newcastle fans before they ran off. My admiration for “the tremendous support “ that club has somewhat dried up that day. Hope they get Bruce and are relegated by March.
LGH had some nasty stories about trips to Newcastle, horrible fans , I remember a fire bomb thrown at our fans, was that them as well , hope them and the blunts are down by Christmas
More than one manager has said Newcastle is a great place when you're winning, but the worst place on earth when you're not. And most managers are not winning more often: that's why they get sacked.
On the other hand, Newcastle also produced that wonderful moment when a guy was arrested after punching a police horse, his wife was quoted as saying “I do not normally let him out on his own coz look what happens, he gets into a fight with a horse”
Well either he'll be gone by Xmas or Newcastle United will. For the life of me I can't see why a premier league club would make that appointment. :hmm:
My guess is that Bruce will walk out around the New Year, citing lack of funds as his excuse for being in 18th place. Then he'll immediately become the manager of the club who have sacked their manager for being in 16th place.
You know how it all goes though. He has been so universally written off as a basket case that for sure he will guide them safely to mid table - it happens so often this way

They are such classy club with top drawer supporters, aren’t they?
:doh:
#BigFatFrankOut :whistle:
There was an article on BBC about it and I think the consensus was that it was a combination of joking and trolling
Bring back Keegan!

Incredible.
Newcastle fans are going to be apoplectic
And nobody likes to see that...
Whatever the David's have done or not I know who I prefer...
Do feel for Newcastle but also a bit funny too...

I laughed so hard I literally cried
That could be one relegation spot filled
Its a great business model if you can pull it off...
