It was absolutely hilarious to see, she is quite out of her depth. Surely the Saudis would just cut their loses with her, and buy her 10% stake...
Plus they are going to add. 'HE cuts frogs legs off and evicts snails from their homes' I walk amongst them Smug I know they are evil
I'm hoping that's what happens which will expose the deal/ownership further. It's probably now dawned on the Saudis that Staveley has little football knowledge, zero credibility in the game and no contribution to give. She's convinced them things will soon blow over but there's a big fly in the ointment which is the Newcastle support. They'll react to the slightest thing in totally inappropriate ways, as they inevitably do, which will only add fuel to the flames.
Already differences formed isn't there? Staveley wants Fonseca, while Reubens wants Lampard? I'm sure there's a reason both Spurs and Wolves didn't appoint Fonseca in the end.
She has absolutely nothing to offer in all honesty. Imagine if that face was at all of our matches mate, I'd not be too pleased. The dance she did at SJP, when they scored, was like a drunk grandma at a wedding ... ... I was half expecting her to pull her top up please log in to view this image
It's the way she awkwardly hugged those two after the goal, it was so awkward to see. You know, let her stay in the limelight a little, it's funny to see you know, when she's out of her depth, reminds me of Methven. Least City knew over time they and to appoint someone who knew football in her capacity, and they got that bloke from Barcelona didn't they?
You'd think their money would've ensured they had a manager, DOF, staff, etc, all lined up ... ... instead they've ended up with an unproven caretaker manager and a woman who thinks wearing a club shop scarf makes her one of the Toon Army.
Spurs did appoint him, then he changed his mind. He’s done nowt for me to suggest he’s a good pick anyway.
All very encouraging so far. The lunatics have taken over the asylum. A fool and his money are easily parted.
The Mags won't admit it but they must be thinking WTF ... ... it seems the plan was to keep Bruce on if the crowd reaction wasn't too bad.
I mean, if the Saudis the majority shareholder are happy for someone with no experience in running a day-to-day operation of a football club, who are we to judge?
It may well be that the mags will get Ole Gunnar Solksar (?) as manager it does not look as if he had long left as Manures manager...
Ellis for all his faults, I believe he was badly advised by people around him, which I guess in time led to him not caring as much about our club. I mean, if Newcastle are serious about a CEO ..look no further than Martin Bain.
