Re: Janmaat trying to impress for a move away - Blind

It's upsetting, but we have become a stepping stone club. Is it really a surprise when the players lack dedication?

Re: Will Rafa stay if we go down?

I hope he stays, but lets be honest. He would be the first Champions League winning manager in the championship....

Re: Ashley: I regret buying Newcastle

None of them according to the Chronicle. I thought that none of them had a clause where they were paid less in the Championship - but I don't know what they agreed regarding a release or transfer if relegated. Why on earth would Wijnaldum and Shelvey join a troubled club without a relegation clause...

Re: Ashley: I regret buying Newcastle

Might not be many people interested in buying them, but I wonder who has a relegation clause.

Re: Jonas Gutierrez suing Newcastle United

It's a bit cold hearted to run the club that way, especially considering what he was going through and his service to the club. It's also very easy to assume the worst of Newcastle at the moment, but I'm sure that they did nothing illegal. Players are treated this way all the time.

Re: Ashley: I regret buying Newcastle

we might also lose Krul, although Eliot has been something of a revelation this season!

If we lost most of that lot then wed have a team where the backbone is once again Colo, Colback and Anita.. Who knows, maybe Ashley can find some nice cheep spanish div 2 players to fill the ranks!

Re: Ashley: I regret buying Newcastle

maybe true, but how many of our players that are worth keeping will stay around to play in the championship? wed also need a new manager (again) as it seems Rafa has a get out of jail free card if we go down.

Re: Ashley: I regret buying Newcastle

Ive been a Newcastle fan since i was 5 years old. Ive never seen things as bad as this. It breaks my heart! There is no denying that things are worse now than ever before. Even if Ashley isnt directly to blame, he is in charge. The ultimate truth of being in charge in that everything is your fault a...
