    Read again and read what I replied to mate... I was actually highlighting your sweeping statement.

    The second part is me once again trying to reinforce my position and what's its based on.

    This is what happens when someone has a sensible opinion that others don't like. They try to funnel the argument to another area.. Essentially they point away.

    I know because I've done it myself on a regular basis <laugh>

    Guess work?

    So Paul Mitchell doesn't know what recruitment should look like?

    But all of my previous comments on the matter were only in response to help balance out what appears to be an equivalent hate campaign by some. against Howe. Just bringing.more rhan one view.

    Like Trev says, it's probably a mixture of various factors rather than a battle between good vs evil.

    I just don't think Mitchell did himself any favours in terms of warming to people and he didn't come acros as being a team player.

    I know mate but nobody is really looking for balance and that's my issue with this Paul Mitchell hate campaign.

    I'm not even looking to blame anyone in simply saying I believe he's probably right based on his occupational experience.

    Anyway if he is right?

    I'm not hating on him and he might well be right. We'll probably never know the full details.

    All this finger pointing, it’s mental. Newcastle are a PL club in the CL, just sign ****ing players, we make such hard work over what is an absolute fundamental basic.

    It's almost as if certain clubs have got together and said "don't sell to Newcaatle."

    Anyway, I'm just distracting you and keeping you chatting here ready for when Magdad emerges from the pub after 35 free pints and the real fun begins.

    I understand you aren't it's the narrative I'm arguing against not you or anyone else as an individual.

    Ultimately we have to hope he's wrong and the signs haven't been great, which lead me to ask the question :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Now if you would all please be so kind as to remove yourselves from my arse one by one.

    And because of how similar the spelling is to our name they are getting us mixed up?

    Bollocks. Nobody would buy from Chelsea. Even if it’s remotely true, buy from Lyon, Roma, Leipzig, Ajax. This focus on the PL is ****ing mind blowing stupid,

    Head of first team recruitment - Nickson
    Assistant head - Andy Howe.

    This is on them.

    Wouldn’t worry about that, Howe will have said we are done several days before.
