I've been trying to express those sentiments since last week. I took a moment aside for myself, but that's my business. As for the footy; I wonder what odds I'll get on us getting relegated two years on the trot. What the hell is going on? Couldn’t have put it better myself Archie.

Financially we look like a bottomless pit. So he can't sell the club and he won't fund the losses, how obvious does it have to get. Actually, Rangerman, it is Ashley’s fault no one wants to buy NUFC.

First game up against a team that finished lower than us , in my opinion we could have had a much harder start than this . good point punk skunk some people seem too forget they were even worse than we were last season along with Boro .

He wouldn't be able for it, just yet. West Brom has to be Shola Ameobi on his own with a 5 man midfield. Nile Ranger won’t start at West Brom and rightly so. He wouldn’t be able for it, just yet.
West Brom has to be Shola Ameobi on his own with a 5 man midfield.

We should be sold by now. If we're sold before the Brom game then I'll still be happy and it will have meet a "deadline" as far as I'm concerned. Diamond Billionaire or not, get it sorted.

Every article has your less than subtle dig in it. so we're being bought by Malaysians, Chinese, South Africans, Americans, Iranians, some tosser from Sunderland with a black and white scarf, Freddy Shepherd, Sheikh Mohammed and of course the We Want To Make A Profit group from Singapore. I haven't mentioned those comedians from NUSC, who think that because they have tee-shirts printed it makes them someone special, or the consortium of 20 businessmen with 5 million each, who theoretically could buy the club, but wouldn't have enough left to pay the electric bill. Or was it 5 million businessmen with 20 quid each? And then there's Alan Oliver who considers himself the voice of NUFC, or at least hid did when they had a voice. Finally - don't get me wrong - SBR was a legend, not just in the North East - but looking back on Diana's death I always thought that thousands of people turning up and crying in the streets for someone they never knew and never met only achieved one thing - to show the rest of the world how detached from reality we were as a nation. A nation of soap opera watchers who wouldn't shed a tear for their own family but have not problem howling in public when a princess or a pop star dies. Please don't disrespect the memory of such a fine human being as SBR by turning it into a Princess Di, or Michael Jackson type carnival. The neverending train of minutes of silence at grounds all over the country because the linesman's cat died has turned the whole idea into a joke. We should not need to be told how, where or when to show respect. Ed, we get it, you don’t like Ashley, but it is getting a bit stale now. Every article has your less than subtle dig in it.
