I'd sell the clubs soul to the fucking devil himself for a couple of decades of success.
I get that,i really do. At times i feel like that. But at the moment,no. Maybe its because i am safe in the knowledge Spurs wont lose this weekend...I'd sell the clubs soul to the fucking devil himself for a couple of decades of success.
We need to sort out our vision. The decision making on the football side has not been good enough, we could have been Liverpool or close to Liverpool and we let it go. Make no mistake Newcastle over the next few years will make things even worse, 3 clubs with massive squads fuelled by oil.
I just want a competent board tbh. And a great manager and good scouting. That’s too much too ask?
And I guarantee when Liverpool lose Klopp, they won't suddenly switch to an entirely different style of play. They'll appoint somebody else of a similar profile and keep the identity and structure the same at the club .. consistency is key.
City's plan for Guardiola's arrival was years in the making.
Who cares if they are fuelled by oil? Some clubs are fuelled by a lot worse things than oil. I pay enough money on the petrol I buy, it would be a good feeling if some of that came back into a team I support.
Before somebody starts banging the drum on human rights in these oil states, our record as a nation on human rights is nothing to brag about. Or our invading of other nations.
Good luck Newcastle, you have terrific home support, it won’t happen overnight, but in time success will come your way. I for one will not be calling you a plastic club, or plastic supporters, or oil club as if it is some derogatory term.
I know. It's a tough one.There's times i wish we had sugar dady owners, but in the cold light of day. No
is nothing to do with them being an oil club it is more the fact their outright owner is someone who is happy bombing schools and hospitals in Yemen killing god knows how many children. Then their is the whole human rights issue where being a homosexual in that country gets you stonned to death. The fact is it was Saudi Money that have funded most of the extremist terrorist groups.Who cares if they are fuelled by oil? Some clubs are fuelled by a lot worse things than oil.

Am I the only one who actually doesn't care much about trophies??
No... I can't be, because here we all are. If the most important thing to us was trophies, we'd all be on Blue Moon or whatever
No. We care about history, tradition, fair play and beautiful, open expansive football.
Fuck trophies, if and when we get one, let it be on our terms. Until then.. As we were. It's fine
It's fun isn't it. Like a dick measuring contest.I see we’re going through that amusing pantomime of pretending to be morally outraged by the owners of different clubs.
