This is an inspiring letter from the chairman which opens with an expression of gratitude to the supporters. He then marks the first anniversary before revealing his emotions at the welcome he and his fellow owners received for their first match, which was at St. James’ Park against Spurs.
The letter then delves into the ambitious plans for the future while exuding the patience and pragmatism we’ve witnessed from the new owners. He also references the importance of adding the right people both on the pitch and behind the scenes. These owners just continue to show that they understand this club.

Aye, pointless dub coming back.
He broke ranks. Fair enough, if he’s getting a game… but he’s done it for his cv.
Good luck to him, but he’s not one of us anymore, imv.

Comment #83Yep Raj, IMO Dubs is the latest in a long line of players who leaves here for something “bigger”only to find that 90% of the time it doesn’t work out like that.

Comment #84It’s going to be a missively interesting January transfer window. Was it Yasir Al-Rumayyan that said there would be a huge signing or something similar this window, I maybe wrong but if it was not him someone said it just last week?
I think that we will definitely get a top RW signed this windy, for me that’s a given, although Miggy has started to kick on of late I can still see us getting a top RW in (Diaby). Miggy would be a great squad player who would still get his games.
This is the interesting bit, do we go after a DMF player in January so Bruno can push up the field, or do we go after an AMF (Maddison) so Bruno drops into DMF? Whatever happens it’s going to amazing, I think they have plans, and personally I think Maddison is in-coming. I read reports he wanted to come here in the summer but it was blocked. Anyway one way or the other it’s gonna be 2 top signings that will get give us a huge chance of a top 6 finish, that team we have at present is probably top 8 (probably 7) you never know with Eddie 2 big January signings could propel us into top 4. Nothing would surprise me with Wor club these days .

At least he admits he was wrong about Eddie.
Still can’t stand him tho.
I love it when those doubters have to eat humble pie. The Jamie O”Hara one and Jason Cundy is the best. What whoppers!

Comment #92Mund….aye he held his hands up.
Still a prick but fair play to him for that.
Can’t see Dopey Danny, Cundy or O“Hara following suit although the latter seems to be changing his tune a small bit .

I am sure they are looking at a multiple club model and South America is the obvious choice due to the changes in work permit rules.
The link below explains it very well and is how I knew what I was talking about when discussing Kuols work permit status.
If you can’t be bothered with all the details just scroll to the recommendations at he end:

Definitely mate.
Same goes for Argentina.
…and there have got to be some great players throughout the, as yet, untapped arab world and beyond.
It’s the way forward.

Comment #96Mund Ledge,
I Will never like tangerine man (Jordan) The man is a grade A, C#@&
So self righteous and so in love with himself, he is the type of man that would get out of bed, have a shower, moisturise, file his nails, then look in the mirror and wink and blow a kiss mwha. That’s him, his missus is probably shouting hey honey can you get out the bathroom now please you’ve been in there for an hour. Also your chauffeur is here to take you to talkshite.

Comment #99Clint /Taco…it just makes sense, doesn’t it.
Tap into the South America and MENA region and not only take the top talent but commercially it would be worth a fortune to us.
It would help us grow more Globally as a brand.
Exciting times are ahead.

Comment #111Jamie Reuben: “These past twelve months have been an incredible journey. From being in the relegation zone this time last year to finishing a fantastic 11th, I am so proud of all our players, our manger and our entire team
Jamie Reuben: “We also couldn’t have done it without our supporters- the best supporters in the world. It’s such a privilege to be part of the #NUFC family and I am excited for the season ahead, building on great foundations from this past year.”

Comment #118The thing is being a pundit is a job literally any of us could do, to varying extents of accuracy, popularity, notoriety etc.
You just express an opinion that is all there is to it. I suspect a few here would lose the job quickly though when they lose their rag with an alternative viewpoint/host/guest/caller.
We should do Podcasts and YouTube!! We’d all be millionaires!!
