Newcastle think they are a big club as they get 50k crowds.

When was the last time they won anything ???

They think they've hit the jackpot now but they've lost their club.

I saw an interview with Ricky Hatton who said about Man City its not the same anymore and doesnt enjoy it as much and thats after winning titles, think he has something to do with Hyde FC too.

Ashley might swoop in for Derby as you say and he will get them on the right track finance wise though he will know if they arent in the championship pronto he faces abuse !!
