Yesterday, the club announced the return of three players for preseason training who had been given a bit of extra time off due to recent international duty.
One of those players has fast become a fan favorite at Newcastle after his tremendous performances this past season. That player is Swiss defender Fabian Schar.
This player must be kept this summer no matter what approaches are made. While Fabian was bought for just £3m from Deportivo La Coruna, he will be worth ten times that amount now.
That will have a lot of fans worried as we have just witnessed Ayoze Perez leave for £30m this summer to Leicester City. We dare say next to Sean Longstaff, the loss of Fabian would be the hardest for the fans to take despite him only having arrived last summer.
Fabian tweeted after his first day back at Newcastle with the simple phrase “Back on track”. Many fans responded to his tweet with a mixture of apprehension that he may soon be leaving and asking if he can play up front.
you’re the only thing keeping me going fabian

Comment #52Maybe the sales of goods act
You’ve bought goods ( season ticket ) that have turned out not as advertised
You were told they were for a team that will compete in a sporting enterprise but it seems company policy not not actually compete
A back dated refund might be required

Comment #58What we need to recruit a team of folk who take action to support the cause.
That’s why Crowd Funding was invented
I’ve listed a few here but please feel free to add your own to strengthen the revolution
Churchill as Director of Football
Monty as Head Coach
The first team:
Mad Max -to deal with the fall out from no deal
Bandit but with Carrie ( aka ‘Frog” which is surprising ) – just because I like Sally Fields
Kojak – to hunt down the bad guys (not a difficult task)
Josey Wales – Law enforcement
Joan Of Arc – in the interests of equality
Robert The Bruce – on loan from Rangers and looking for a pay back
Gazza – to give him a focus and pretend that Mike Ashley is Vinnie Jones so he can squeeze him where it hurts
Bacon – well you wouldn’t want him on the other side, would you ?
Elvis – singing “It’s now or never” as the Soundtrack
Kermit – takes one to know one
Ellen Ripley – she can spot an alien a mile away and knows how to deal with it

Comment #60Fans/supporters have either forgotten or do not realise they have the power in this situation, its NOT TFCB! What has happened over the course of his reign is he has taken advantage of the loyalty of the fans and turned it against them/us. In all the confusion and love for the club we have had OUR club taken from US and taken over by a megalomaniac filled with greed for money. Its time the worms turned and got OUR club back and have it run correctly.
Lots of good idea’s on how to accomplish this but by far and away the best one is to cancel season tickets and BOYCOTT and starve him of money and show the world the fans are against his tyrannical reign. To suggest that those who cancel will be blacklisted is ridiculous as once he is history the new owners will still have a list of the previous holders and know what has happened as they will be seen as aiding them in the take over.
Having said all that it really was for myself, a catharsis if you like, why, because there is no take over and never has been!

Comment #61How very, very sad.
Please don’t leave me, and can you play up front?
As if the comments themselves weren’t bad enough what about those who just repeated them word for word, with not even the slightest hint of original thought?
I bet Schar has already been to the cop shop and asked them to keep an eye on some of the people who have commented on his tweet.
For those of you worrying about the team – consider this…..
Perez was pretty much useless until Almiron arrived.
Almiron Only played 10 games for us.
Dummett missed a dozen games.
Lejeune Only played 12 games for us.
Longstaff didn’t turn up until January and even then he only played 9 games for us.
Shelvey, one of our best players, only played 16 games
A new manager coming in has a hell of a core to build on, if they’re all fit.
Looking a that team we can live without Perez and even Rondon
