Is Alan Pace having a laugh?

[Altobelli]

Mormons do not like betting, and Pace said that he would address the shirt sponsors, he certainly has, with the old betting company not being able to see out their contract Mr Pace has gone for Spreadex another betting company

Guys, We have 6, yes 6 recognised first team midfield players and one them is a horror story and another a likely sicknote after 3 or 4 games. This is where we are in the Premier league, as mentioned just 3 weeks from the start of the season. It's now worse than I could imagine when this lot took over. Where the hell are the young wide players with pace??? No we are looking at best a some cheap cart horse whose potentially past it. This is the 3rd window we have had with so far nonexistent meaningful recruitment. They are frankly treating us supporters as fools. Trust our club to be sold to Billy no money in the richest league in the world!!

Wrong Sub.We all wanted the club to be taken over by a company or individual with money to invest in the squad.What we have is a group who have borrowed off the club to purchase the club.It even sounds ridiculous when you write it down.The end result is we are even more potless than before the takeover.Nobody wanted this scenario.

Sounds like Ken Anderson and I wouldn't wish that on anybody, especially you guys. Hopefully he's not.

So far we are down Brady, which frees up space in the medical centre - who WILL JBG talk to now? We have A Manager who has not signed a contract extension. We have Tarkowski who wants away. Today we sign yet another goalkeeper. Age 34. Presumably, rather than looking at improving our position in the league, we are going for the accolade of the oldest squad in the PL. Meanwhile, thanks to improvements in the hoardings, there will be exciting pictures to look at during half time! The club is losing direction fast, in my opinion.

You can already hear the upcoming excuses-it is a difficult window, the pandemic, we only want players that fit our model etc etc....

On a more positive note, not that you'd be interested necessarily, we just beat Championship side Preston away in one of those preseason games where both teams field all 22 players at various stages. Proper friendly with the Preston players squaring up when they were losing with 20 minutes to go Downside is that the dirty *******s took out our goalscorer and messed up our marquee signing (if you can call a weedy Arsenal reject winger "marquee") and both will probably miss the start of the season.
Bring on Blackburn.

Come on CiB, be fair FFS, we are progressing - we now have about 15 goalkeepers and seventy five kids to pick from.

I think we will be OK after today BT.We scraped past Salford City and Morecambe FC so things are looking up.

So what a number of you are saying is that if Garlick came back as Chairman instead of the current incumbent it would be far better for the club because we may even be better off.
I thought that Newcastle fans could moan about take overs etc., but bloody hell this is getting beyond a joke.
Comfort youselves gents because, apologies to alto, the Geordies are still moaning like hell with their takeover probably not taking place until next season --if ever -----they haven't signed anyone and they were beaten by York City in a friendly.

This is the modern football world and it is more corrupt that the Houses of Parliament ----and that takes some doing! Que sera, sera!
