    What did we expect...

    Looks like we have shifted players on and won't bring in any signings but what did we expect? We have mike Ashley as owner!!!

    I don't think he will. He's clearly-and rightly-pissed off at our lack of 'correct' business but today is a legacy of that rather than a 'final straw' type situation. If he was going to go I think it would have been before today; the next window is another matter....

    Understand Newcastle are finished for business in this window, despite De Jong, Rivière, Krul, Lazaar & Hanley all leaving in the last week.

    it would appear that that is that !

    Its the same old. Ashley gambling on us having enough points on 1 Jan so he doesn't have to spend anything. Even if we are in the bottom three it'll be the battle cry that ends with a whimper again and protestations that the players we wanted were too expensive. The man is a complete and utter fat fkn cnut and his mate the fat fkn weeble is even worse in my eyes. Reporter in the chronicle says we've a £11 million net spend. That is fkn atrocious. There are numerous championship clubs who have spent way more than that. How can Fulham afford £15 million never mind 18 and we cant spend that? Pathetic again.
    The rollercoaster starts again with NUFC seat belt buckle faulty. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

    In Ashley's words.... Charnley reports to Rafa who has sole responsibility for players/signings.I for one don't knoww who is to blame for this usual debacle but I can guess!

    Whilst I think Rafa was right to take up the honour of attending, I do think the timing of that elite manager conference in Switzerland really sucked. Couldn't they have left it til after the window closed??
