Lewis Gibson part two

[ex_pat_magpie]

and so he should he was the manager of all things footy

you start of saying he did because of the pitch and end up saying we did because the two great geordie owners thought it a great idea to throw away all the great local geordie talent
and what makes it worse
a footy man like kk let them get away with it

Aye but we didn't have two relegations in less than 10 years under them. A worse record than the Muckem.That takes some swallowing.

[pboromag]

if we had a decent flow of talent maybe we wouldnt be in the mess and aybe we would have had players to sell instaed of running the club down and being in a position of having to seel it to ash

they didnt just do a bad deed for the toon at the time
but all hose young uns dreaming of playing for the toon

ash spends on the youths and development squads

which is what the discussion is about


you can keep bleeting on about relegation under ash
but the last few years of these jokers wasnt much better

watching the likes of owen etc rip money out the club
spending money we didnt have

toying with relegation

sacking SIR bOBBY

I enjoyed the entertainers days under Keegan but there's no getting away from the fact that he played a major role in destroying our young talent and setting it back a good while.

The Hall's and Freddie appeared to look like fairy god mothers at the time but they were chancers who basically ended up with no contingency plan once their ideal world fell apart.

[pboromag]

i enjoyed it
but the shepheard and freddy were very lucky

yes they gave us a stadium but to their own benefit and they had no option really

but they put this club years behind for a few years of good times

a bit ike drug addicts ,they get the hit and then cant deal with the after effects

getting rid of the reserve side etc
sacking sir bobby ]]like ash they made loads of mistakes

can you imagine if ash had done the same
he would have been hung drawn and quartered for destroying the dreams of the geordies kids

they had as much clue as ash has on running a footy team

I agree with what you're saying about Shepard and Hall, so in that sense you must see how Rafa and fat Mike are trying to do things differently now for long term progression? ... But yet your footy manager offerings completely contradict that...

On the subject if Gibson wants to leave his local club to go to a second rate Liverpool because they've got money then **** him either way... They should have tied him down a while ago if he was that special though tbh..

they're not allowed to tie him down earlier. apparently a player cannot be offered their 1st pro contract until their 17th birthday. he turned our offer down as he had already decided to leave. the offer had been made earlier.

he wants to go.

(Keegan's fault allegedly)

Nah, pretty sure it'll be Rafa's fault.

[Zippity]

I'm blaming it on Brexit.

...or the Boogie.

if you knew anything about footy you cant tie a kid down
