You clearly like throwing money away.
On that subject, I was setting up my acca for this weekend.
Picked Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle and City to win.....got 11/1 odds, then when I changed City to win to Chelsea to win instead, the odds went up to 76/1 <laugh>
Not gonna happen I know, but I was tempted for a second.
I make a rule never to bet on Chelsea.
Now on the very minute chance they win, I will be elated but also extremely pissed that I didnt place that bet

I hate them but I'm too busy trolling Newcastle fans.

The Premier League and the FA have approved Sir Jim Ratcliffe's proposed bid to buy a minority stake in Manchester United; Ratcliffe, who is the owner of INEOS, is closing in on completion of his deal to buy 25 per cent of the club

INEOS are planning to make a formal approach to Newcastle for sporting director Dan Ashworth.

"As far as Newcastle is concerned, they would be very reluctant to lose him, he is a huge part of what they are trying to do right now. But like with a player transfer, if an individual agitates to leave and their head is turned, it may be difficult for Newcastle to hold on to him."

"For Newcastle, it would not be great in terms of optics losing someone of his stature to a much bigger club like Manchester United considering they are trying to position themselves within the top 6. This would very much maintain their stature as small fry."

<rofl>

If it's any consolation, I hear Edward Woodward is still available and we're happy to send you him.

I hope they employ whoever was in control when we signed Guimareas and Trippier ...in other words more of that and less of the **** that's followed.
 
Hopefully he takes our gambling addict along with Hall . The worst window following champions league qualification ever by any club

"Sometimes when it comes to transfers, you can overstate how much one person is responsible for making those signings, so I don't know if Dan Ashworth was responsible for signing Moises Caicedo at Brighton for £4.5m, Kaoru Mitoma for £2.5m and Alexis MacAllister for around £6m.

"At Newcastle, Bruno Guimaraes, Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon - they've made some really good signings. I'm not saying that's all down to Dan Ashworth, but he has been the man in charge, he's been the sporting director.

Not looking good bruh <whistle>

They got that wrong he wasn't here for a while after the takeover.

Barnes was a decent signing.

Your left side looks good with him or Gordon. Both offer something different to a consistently high level.

To be fair Barnes is good but always injured think he'll come good ... Gordon and Livramento are very good signings... I don't know know if he was here for isak the crock but he definitely 100% was not for Guimareas and trippier.

We've not seen any of the good cheap buys that Brighton got .. all were very pricey... I was hoping we'd see that but it never materialised.

If he goes I never liked him anyway type thing..you know the score.
