    There’s a good chance it will change to something we just don’t recognise or enjoy. Money doesn’t really matter - yes, Newcastle will be relevant in whatever it becomes, but will we want to watch it? Will we care? Not sure.

    They had cheerleaders at Bolton away in about 2004, the one on the end was fat and our lot started singing who ate all the pies, brutal.

    Somethings going on, had it on good authority that the consortium members have all flown up to Newcastle and may be holed up in the Jesmond area. Watch this space, fingers crossed this may be the end of fat Mike.

    Don't be too sure. Some strong claims coming out of Saudi Arabia that it's all just Mike Ashley in a keffiyeh and a false beard, pretending to be a Saudi multi-billionnaire in an attempt to help attract more money coming in to the club.

    More news to follow.

    I don’t believe any of this ****. I mean. They are even talking about hidden cryptic clues in someone’s twatter posts. A chap called Nick demarco and the colour green in daft photos.

    People saying it’s a sign of the takeover going ahead with a green light.

    Some people man. Next we might be buying Trippier like that will ever happen. No wonder we get called deluded.
