When you appoint someone like him you get what comes along with his history. Sorry Mr C ... another blunder, and I hope you are not going to blame the fans again. To be fair, I don't think you can blame DC for Bruce being a Judas (other unflattering names are available). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asteener1867 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 It's odd that some fans like us posting on here will "fight to the death" over a flippingspelling mistake, but will stand for Newcastle United virtually trying to wreck a season the vast majority of us were looking forward to. Sure it might not turn out as we want it, but honestly, stand idly by and let a bloke like Ashley p*ss all over the club? No thanks,I'm with DC on this. I wouldn't place too much stock in Premier league looking after Premier league either, Ashley seems universally unpopular 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Newcastle probably did make an illegal approach but that nothing new in football. Be surprised if any club in completely innocent of not tapping up players and managers. If Newcastle get found guilty probably get a small fine.

LoadABallacks Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I'm glad Chansiri is putting up a fight in the interest of the club. It's obviously not about money to him, but the principle and manner in which it's been dealt with by Newcastle. Yes, we all know football is morally corrupt and this stuff goes on all the time, so it's nice to see the chairman not simply being trampled on by a Premier League club. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chansiri is king Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Why are their so many anti DC / Swfc fans on owlslag , unbelievable that so many people know the ins and outs at what’s happening at our great club , but really know sweet fa I’m sure all bases are being covered by our owner .

Kopparberg Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Did Derby have the same problems when Lampard went to Chelsea? I personally didn’t see much - seemed like Chelsea sorted it reasonably OK and off Lampard went. Maybe that tell us something about Newcastle’s owner ? I’m backing DC on this. I’m sure the guy can multitask and like what has been said already, it’ll be with the lawyers who ‘check in’ with a few phone calls at this stage. MA’s battle isn’t with the average man on the street - Chansiri has money and power - he’s defending himself and us as a club in his eyes, and I like it. It’s what he needs to been seen doing. Lay down and play dead to MA ? Fizz that. Let’s get some backbone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selling our ground to ourselves only really impacts us though. Newcastle poached our manager in the run up to a new season, that’s the sticking point here for me.

Instead of looking forward and preparing for this, our chiarmans attention is elsewhere. And no, I don't think he should just rollover if he feels he's got a case, but there are more pressing matters. I'm sure the club can perform multiple tasks. We all do it everyday. It's just complete nonsense to suggest otherwise. Edited July 23, 2019 by Sham67 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowOwl Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 To be honest this could be the final nail for me, the Prem & the FA have a chance to prove they support lower league teams. It's so obvious its been foul play by Newcastle & Bruce. And even more so that they think they can get away with it due to their status. Failure to act by either the FA & Prem and i've lost all interest in promotion. Much happier in the championship, no Top 6 elite nonsense or glory fans. Real football clubs, great twists and turns and less Sky TV drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggowl Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Feels like we're shooting ourselves here. It was reported that we'd got potential loan signings out of this with the correct compensation stipulated in Bruce's contract. I think DC needs to let it go, get a new manager and stop endangering our season. Obviously I don't know anything but it doesn't feel like DC is creating the best environment for success. It's all too frustrating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
