    It's all smear.

    It's old news being regurgitated and we should know its because it's close again.

    Once seperation is proven their entire moral argument falls down.

    Let them keep digging.

    I just want to let everyone know I did win last night.

    Just waiting for us to be relegated for Mike to accept our revised offer of £4.50. I will still have a 40% equity. Thankfully with the 10p left over we still have enough to bring back Haidara.

    For my part, I've never really given an opinion on whether this takeover would succeed. I want it to and the seller and buyers are determined, but so many tanks are lined up against them. So little information is coming out and so little progress.
    There's a chance it could still come good, but it just seems unlikely in its present format.

    Honestly think it’s to convenient for Ashley right now to hide behind it while he strips the club completely bare.

    Tonight’s match is important but if we lose will anything change? Probably not. Keeping a manager in charge with 12/16 defeats is just completely and utterly suicidal.

    Then you read some of the **** Bruce spouts and it’s clear he’s been told that as long as we are not relegated he’s in a job for life.

    It’s horrible.

    Ashley is the cancer. You can blame the PL for doing what they did I guess but maybe they where actually looking in the best interests of the club? Given the allegations etc.

    Another buyer will come along on day and while the won't be exciting it'll not leave us the most hated club in the world.

    The media would relentlessly go after us and there would be chants I suspect

    The Saudis want to change public perception, but I think buying nufc would have the opposite effect... They'll get crucified in the media like never before

    I've decided to forget it... Nick demarco did an interview sating he's never confident of winning arbitration and the aim is always to reach a compromise, but I feel the premier league will not reach any agreement in which the door opens for the Saudis because the entire country is on they side and they obviously have a god chance of winning if it goes to arbitration.

    They simply do not want to let it happen and neither does the media or the general population.. We can highlight the hypocrisy in that, but it doesn't change the fact that the masses are against it and so are the other clubs in the premier league along with the people who pay for TV rights.


    Can de marco win? Maybe, but the odds seem highly stacked against it ever going through... I think its more likely another buyer comes along and both unlikely events require nufc being in the premier league.

    I read that about NDM and that’s definitely a change in direction. From him linking black and white images to bread sliced and cans he’s totally retracted. This week has seen two pieces of very negative news regarding the owners in their own rights.

    Meanwhile we have Bruce who is robbing a living.

    I never want us to lose but if we did today it’s one more nail in the coffin.

    I do want us to lose today though. We need another manager in to stand a chance of staying up.

    No guarantee he’s gone if we lose. I think he could lose the next 2/3 and still won’t be sacked.

    I would be ****ing ironic if one press conference he lost his **** and said something like “what do you expect I’ve got **** players and the owner has left me high and ****ing dry”.

    I would have more respect for him if he did.

    I'd have a lot of respect if he said that. Something along the lines of 'the fans aren't stupid. They know what is going on.'

    Exactly: I mean he wouldn’t have anything to lose. He would either keep his job and get the fans inside or he would get a payout.

    I honestly don’t know why he ties the line. And that Jonjo interview wtf was that about?

    Shelvey is a prick. A bang average lazy footballer who has it easy under Bruce.

    Bruce took over a side that could defend and over time he's created a side that doesn't score goals and can't defend, but we're told he's done a fantastic job.

    The clocks running out on Bruce, but we really need to hope we get a couple of wins over the next month.

    There's no point in the Bruce out just like there's no point in the Ashley out stuff because it's Mike ashleys club and the fans don't own a damn thing.... They rent a seat and if don't like it then they should not go... Nobody is making them.
