    If he signed a new contract and then walked out because of Ashleys actions.

    No doubt Ashley will have inserted a clause whereby if Rafa walks he owes MA a few million quid.

    Maybe we should see if they will take Lazaar on loan.

    The whole Ashley / Charnley schtick is just ****ing boring now ................just come clean with the fans and say, 'look guys, we aint' spending a ****ing penny if we can help it, so ****ing suck it up' .................. rather than the whole pantomime that surrounds every transfer window with 'record bids', invisible lines, pound for pound value and all the usual ****.

    After ten years of the same Shiite we've grown used to it.

    Newcastle United have reached their peak under Ashley and that's not saying much.
    It seems utterly pointless having such a good Manager and them expect him to compete with clubs who show ambition.

    Cardiff City have spent more than us already and if that doesn't wake people up to the fact that Ashley is a lying *unt, then nothing will.

    Of course, like most people on here, I simply cannot just ignore what happens at NUFC as I dearly love the club.

    It's this very foundation that has allowed Ashley to hoodwink everyone into thinking the club is spending all it can.
    Total bollocks.

    I don't live in Newcastle any more but it still irks me to see those devoted fans getting ripped off every week.

    Why do we bother? Because we're in the Premier League (for now at least) but Ashley could not care less.

    The only way is down for this club and Rafa will not be hanging around to sink with us.

    Ashley will go down in history as the worst owner this club has ever had.

    I was hearing on talk sport earlier that Aston Villa have been bought out by two very wealthy and committed owners. They will
    Now start to spend money and get promoted with us most likely going the other way.

    The only way of getting shot of him is if we get relegated again and we stay down. This way he should wipe his hands clean of us. A few years of pain in the championship would get him gone.

    As long as this club makes money Ashley will stick around.
    The only option is therefore for the club to start losing money hand over fist.

    On the upside it does now look as though Steve Bruce may be available to replace Rafa when he quits.

    Yes but they only support in the good times. They spend the rest of it moaning and making stuff up.

    So we should rejoice in the current scheme of things? Or just shut up and put up?

    Omg I’m sooooo bored of hearing your ****e.... so for me I just can’t wait for your optimism to prove me wrong.

    But please....if low and behold we don’t survive this season after having a shocker. And if Rafa leaves. Can you please do the right honourable thing and please go **** your self up the arse with a sports direct mug!
