    Just seen it on the BBC so l guess it’s right.
    What happened to one last try to sort things?
    I literally have tears in my eyes, it’s past description what that vile man has done to the club l love so much.
    Words cannot express my utter devastation right now, l truly believed that Rafa would stay.
    I am done with this, l really cannot endure the embarrassment and disappointment anymore.
    Thanks Mike Ashley, for ruining my beloved NUFC.
    I for one am not sticking around to watch us implode, we really are a ****ing joke.

    If this is because the new owners are coming in and they want their own guy then I'm prepared to reserve judgement. If this takeover just doesn't happen then Ashley will be getting it with both barrels on here.

    He has ducked his head long enough

    FUUUUUCCCCKKKKKK

    How the ****ing hell can the FCB be so ****ing stupid.

    He’s got some pissing contest mentality where anyone where if he doesn’t “win” a transaction hands down - i.e. screw over everyone else - he won’t play. Whatever that costs him (let alone the club) in the long run he can’t let himself “lose” (read: compromise) in the short term.

    I... Christ I’m gutted. Maybe a takeover is still an option, but frankly after a blow like this one I’m not sure I could take letting my hopes get up only to see them dashed again.

    Jesus ****ing Christ, why are people still saying but if the takeover happens and we get new owners and maybe Mourinho in as manager and fluffy unicorns and pixie folk.
    Wake up and smell the coffee!
    We can’t possibly recover from this, no manager, no backroom staff, who exactly are we going to get to replace Rafa? Moyes, Monk, Pauli’s.
    Do you think we will sign anyone?
    Do you think the core talent in the team will stay?
    There all on the phone to their agents as we speak, saying get me a fooking move, now!

    If no takeover is happening then I am almost 100% sure we will see either Monk or Moyes as the manager.

    I think we will be relegation candidates next year, for sure.

    Hopefully the finances come in. I still have hope that things take time and it's happening, we will see.

    They won’t, they don’t have the bollocks or stamina to force this vile sadistic cretin out.
    I am so angry right now, l haven’t set foot inside SJP for years, don’t buy any merchandise but it’s like pissing in the wind.
    Answer me this one question please....
    Just WHAT does Ashley have to do before the fans act en mass?
    Just WHAT?

    I've no connection with Newcastle, but a very good source is stating that Arteta to you guys is a done deal

    Cue an over dramatic response from the fans. The club will survive without him like it always has whenever a useful employee has left. Id' suggest our fans get a grip but its a waste of time because it never happens. It always turns into a soap opera.

    In terms of why talks have broken down who knows. If I had to guess I think its simply a case of Newcastle United not being capable of fulfilling Rafa's ambitions. Quite simply the club, looking at the accounts of recent years, simply doesn't have the money. The only way around that is personal money being pumped in, spending on the never never or a takeover. Rafa knew when he signed the contract personal money and spending on the never never won't happen so he can't really complain about it. He perhaps hoped either a takeover would materialise or there would be some change in our financial situation. Neither appears to be the case so I guess its just one of those where the stars won't align.
