Around my ankles as we speak......

Can't we sort out roads, sanitation, medicine and education before forum banners?

It's not the same person. HTH

...

Nail. Head. Which leaves me to thank Mr Fulthorpe and his friends for nothing. Great work if you can get it....

Thanks for the update Weston, however, it's your last sentance that bothers me most....i.e. "Otherwise it will have just faded away". IFFulthorpe and Co have indeed been mounting a serious takeover/investment bid "in the background" (I use this phrase loosely as we all know they have been 'testing the water' in the public domain for some months now....) then, IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, they (or a representative) should come on here and explain why they were unsuccessful. I know it won't happen as there is no morallity left in this crap country of ours anymore but one can still cling onto a sliver of hope that Fulthorpe is from an old school of 'gentlemen' that feel duty bound to let ordinary people like you and I know what has happened over the last 6+ months. Is Fulthorpe that honourable?

Newcastle are relying on us to be this month's footballing laughing stock

So..... Yet another Friday floats by and the SUPPOSED Fulthorpe consortium YET AGAIN fails to come up with the goods. Is there any moral obligation whatsoever for these so-called tyre-kickers to come clean and announce that their endeavours have come to nothing? FFS..... Someone, PLEASE, who is connected to this so called consortium...do the DECENT thing and come on here to tell us once and for all that you were never in the frame..... No? Thought not....JUST ABOUT SUMS UP THESE PEOPLE'S MORALS..... I give up Pathetic.

But how can anyone take this thread seriously when the correct spelling of speling (sic) is not speling (sic) but 'spelling' ?

I see there was no question in there about the investment/takeover situation. Regardless of whether anything is really happening or not you'd have thought it was still a burning question to ask the chairman of a financially stricken football club.... Journalistic censorship or oversight?

Hmmmm....slightly different view to UK Sport and the English Institute of Sport then......they seem to think there's a close connection between football academies and Olympic potential...as we're always being told that we've got "one of the best academies in the country" shouldn't we be more in tune with the other sporting bodies on this one (where's Sir Clive Woodwood when you need him, eh?!)

Sounds like Rupes is holding out for a better deal in January then.....? i.e. loan him out to Ipswich for now, thus still getting him off the wage bill, and then sit back whilst his value escalates after a good run in their team.... Shrewd

Has anyone else noticed that Saintlee hasn't registered on this 'ere new pay-as-you-go forum yet....? No? Thought not. Just me then. Perhaps he's stuck up in Humberside for the second year running? (that area of the country where they don't have any internet access, you'll recall)

Will someone PLEASE get Fulthorpe, or a representative, on here TODAY (Friday) to explain what the F*** is going on. Two words: Common Courtesy Three words: FFS

Was it a picnic hampster?
