    Too soon to judge his side..

    I fear a big crash back to earth for the fans thinking this will change anything

    He got "Ashley" to spend £35m....the same amount we were going to spend on Soumare in January. This, in spite of a PL placement payment, a TV payment, a one year kit extension and an extension to the Fun88 sponsorship since we had that amount. So in true Mike Ashley style, NUFC have 'made' the square root of **** all in commercial income in over 8 months.

    So, no, negativity hasn't died quite yet.

    Still short of anything impressive imo... Good work, but I think there's some thinking this will suddenly turn us into a good team that can keep the ball for more than 35-40% of a game... They're wrong!

    The naysayers will never be happy.
    Stevie still has 4 weeks of wheeling and dealing yet.
    More to come in, some dead wood to go.
    Some might say, he's a genius, and rightly so.

    Nobody wants our **** players and certainly not clubs that will offer them higher or the same wages.

    I can see maybe a loan of a striker, but can also see nothing more coming in..

    We've effectively
    1.swapped gayle for Wilson
    2.sdded Fraser
    3. Swapped willems for Lewis

    It really is marginal improvements.. No complaints its usually worse.

    Of that there is no denying, however, with marginal as the word before improvements. <laugh>
    Then there's Hendrick who's been forgotten about.
    Of course the icing on the cake is Stevie B , talking charge of the new recruits to mould in his unique fashion.

    Yes we do, but, take the crumbs of comfort that have been served up to date.

    It's a start, of course it may also be the finish.

    See you've got me being negative.
