The American businessmen were not going to be our saviour, then who will???

It looks like we will be more longer seeing Mike Ashley running this club without any signs of new potential take over to appears in the short of time. None of any rich sheikh from Dubai or any wealthy American cowboys committed to buy our club.

News from the L.A. Times reporting that Philip Anschutz has no interest in buying Newcastle United or any other English Premier League club.

Phil eventually did and emphatically denied any reports…

Typical poor away performance from Newcastle United

Posted by: Clarky · November 9, 2008 · Comment

I thought we were s***e, all over the pitch. Sloppy, disorganised, pathetic passing giving up possession time after time after time after time after time, lack of support to the man on the ball, etc., etc., etc.

Defensively, I thought we were hopeless. How many more stupid frickin penalties are we going to give away this season? Wtf can’t our Managers see what we can see – Cacapa is useless.

Young Bassong has put in some good…

But today everyone is having their performance back, and hope JFK can keep the growing-up confidence from the Lads for good. Our “Houdini” has done his magic once again, and everyone…

First win for Toon under JFK, with Barton got a good reception

Well, we all acknowledged this was a ‘must-win’ game, a proverbial ’six-pointer’ (in October fcs), and we secured the points. That’s the positive stuff. Other than that I thought we were generally shambolic, and the 2nd half in particular was sheer agony to watch.

The Baggies had a dodgy defence and going forward couldn’t hit a cow’s @rse with a bango. Despite that they passed us to death in midfield, particularly 2nd half, where they always…
