  1. Not really an accident, more an inevitable outcome, hence the sentence. Club to undertake an internal review. Hopefully we'll tear up his contract.
  2. I'll never forget the Wembley play-off memory. Just a shame we couldn't have held onto that lead at Newcastle. It seemed to change everything. Great bloke.
  3. So is he going to be off the bench or replace Kenny? Just wondering where he fits in.
  4. It wouldn't be a good outcome if MA walks, calls in the loans and we have to sell every last decent player we have to survive. I'm astounded some so called supporters, shareholders or not, would welcome that outcome.
  5. As from Jan 2026 MA could become the majority shareholder, but either way D&MWJ no longer are the majority shareholders. MA also can put another person of his choice on the BOD. My gut feel is the financial position of NCFC isn't going to improve in the next 12 to 18 months without Premier League football and no parachute payments, so things may change sooner than the next 28 months.
  6. So long as it doesn't influence the result of games then I don't really care tbh. If they have money to lose then good for them. The Sky Bet Championship.....
  7. Not sure of all this sudden distrust of MA. Seems some were happy to let him invest and loan to our club but now he wants something in return he's not to be trusted? It has been clear that ever since he sat in the Directors Box and saw us slaughtered by Spurs it would lead to an eventual takeover. Any objection to this should have been raised much earlier, including when the 194,000 shares were announced, but not now, in my view. What is much more important is how he runs the club going forward. Surely we have to take some encouragement from his 18 years at The Brewers?
  8. I think we're cutting our cloth accordingly, so that means low cost young players and older free/low cost experienced ones. Hopefully the young players come good and we make a tidy profit. Likewise we're not committed to the older guys long term. I suppose the key thing is that players further in their development are actually good enough, or don't get injured. The challenge for us going forward is signing players in their 'prime', especially if we were to be promoted.
  9. I really can't imagine every shareholder is going through this incredible amount of detail!
  10. It was against Scotland. Dikes and Adams are Championship attackers, but Dunk played well. Hopefully Stones will be back for Italy, then it's a choice between Dunk and Maquire.
  11. Maddison must be thinking bollix I picked the wrong time to be alive! Bellingham further forward looks immense. Rice will also start every game and I thought Phillips played well too. That midfield really clicked last night. Just need to sort that back 4 out....
  12. I don't see anyone writing him off but it's reasonable to have some expectation of him having been brought in to help cover for Sargent. It's a shame he didn't get more minutes on the pitch in those 2 friendlies but even then he hasn't even trained with our squad yet. He comes with pretty good experience so hopefully the Championship should be easier for him to slot into. He needs to adapt to our style though not the other way round. I look forward to him playing some part against Stoke.
  13. Potentially yes. An effective vote of no confidence on MA could spell disaster. What happens to the 194,000 shares if the waiver is rejected?
  14. It was the Norwich City Gilmour we saw tonight, an absolutely nothing performance.
  15. If it was a conscious decision from Kane then fair play. Support your team mates.
  16. C4 and Souness going a bit overboard. England played well but they are way off the likes of France and Argentina. We haven't had that much time and space in midfield for games. Ukraine were way better than Scotland.
  17. Decent performance from England against it has to be said woeful opposition. Got a bit sloppy and could have had 2 or 3 more goals. Totally bossed the midfield even with Phillips there. Gilmour hugely overated and wouldn't get on the bench. Very pleasing evening. Very pleasing.
