    You got to love Twitter. So the masses were suggesting buying the Newcastle United shirt/merch from somewhere that isn't Sports Direct. I said if they were that serious, don't buy the shirt at all, as he owns the Newcastle brand. Someone piped up "it's a Puma shirt. He doesn't own Puma"......

    In a quiet spell for the board, Pouchy has single handedly injected a bit of welcome spice. I’m a bit of a fat **** now with all that popcorn eating mind...

    On the down side, the scroll wheel on my mouse needs replacing after having to scroll past so much of his drivel.

    Pouchy's about turn reminds me of Bobby Ewing's infamous shower dream from Dallas. Twelve months of filming went down the pot. Wow.

    The team that was built was indeed shrewd investment strategy. The problem Ashley has had is that fans just moan whether he has a DoF type person, a free wheeling French lover, or latterly the manager in control of the funds.

    If he was a Geordie we'd love him...

    Hilarious that he appointed a fan favourite at the beginning, then proceeded to mess about and **** him off. 11 years on and nothing’s changed.

    Yeah, but really that's a fault of the fans for having favourites in the first place. Love all the Ameobis equally, that's what I say #Ashleyin #Ashleyknowsbest #Pouchyleftatwatgapinthemarket #SportsDirectismint

    One thing is for sure. The next Ashley **** up is always just around the corner. We can be going along okay and quite positive and he always finds a way to bring it all down again.

    It was a lie. By a fat **** who has been proven a liar in a court of law. You can dance around it however you want and say it has different meanings with regards to fees, agents, wages all that guff. The fact is it's bullsh!t. Rafa doesn't deserve it, he's a winner, you'd struggle to write all of his honours on Ashleys kite, yet he's being ****ed about. Our strikeforce is a complete joke, there's teams in the league below with better.

    Aye, the famous Newcastle #9 strikers are a thing of the past. Gallagher, White, Milburn, MacDonald, Cole, Ferdinand, Shearer, even Ba and Cisse. I don't like having to hope that Muto will be our next superstar this season. Let's say it's unlikely.

    Fab article in the Independent from one of the better journo's, Jonathan Liew:

    https://www.independent.co.uk/sport...tract-latest-club-sports-direct-a8476546.html

    Brings to light all of his lies, both in relation to NUFC and SD - the zero hours, the contempt for MP's, the ludicrous "business meetings", naps under the table when he got a bit bored.

    Nobody should underestimate what a coont this bloke is. I always refer back to the tale of how he wanted to expand his operation from one tat shop in Maidenhead so went to his parents, bullied them out of £10k, went on to build SD....and never repaid them because they'd fallen out.

    Karma's a bitch, though. I can well imagine some Raul Moat wannabe doing something pretty unlawful at some point.
