    europia got a reaction from Turnstile in Sam Rush   
    Yes, very slippery character. Wouldn't want to see him back at the club. Problem is, with the clubs dire situation, in all likelihood we are going to have to put up with some dubious characters running the club. Little prospect of ethical attracting ownership, unfortunately.

    Disenfranchised? No. Nor am I deluded. But that's probably for another forum.

    Personally, I would have kept the same settled team and perhaps added Stearman into the back line in the last 15 minutes. As little disruption as possible. We weren’t chasing the game.
    Do Luton, Huddersfield and Coventry have better goalscorers than us really? Or is it that their teams function better as a unit and their coaching and tactics are better at getting more out of what they have?
    Now I am not saying that we have top shelf options, but it’s not as if we have plucked Lawrence, Jozwiak, Baldock and Kazim from Dog and Deer FC either.
    These free scoring teams you mention are almost exclusively reliant on unproven players coming up from League 1 and 2 and in some cases lower. Many players we would overlook and turn our nose up at if given the chance.
    The only notable exception I can see is Coventry’s multi million signing of Gyokeres from Brighton.
    Better players needed v better coach needed? It’s the eternal debate. I think at this moment all the evidence points to better coaching being needed which would lead to better decision making on the pitch. But let’s agree to disagree.

    No way is Rooney going to Newcastle. They're not going to be looking around the second division for a manager but looking at the very top tier with the kind of budget they have.

    That's nothing to do with my like / dislike of Newcastle Utd, just an observation on how these filthy rich new owners, connected to a regime with a disgraceful record on human rights, have passed a fit and proper persons test. Just my opinion by the way.

    europia reacted to May Contain Nuts in Who would you like as new DCFC owner?   
    And? So what?
    In the same season which Newcastle averaged just over 35k while finishing 13th in the PL Sunderland, their only real rival and a fanbase who've genuinely suffered,  averaged just over 30k finishing 8th in League One. 
    Newcastle are now the scummiest club in the land and should be reviled by all. The notion that they've somehow regained their identity by signing up to become the ultimate example of sportswashing is laughable in the extreme.

    Can't say I'm particularly keen to refer to people who celebrate being bankrolled and controlled by a regime known for state sponsored beheadings as 'bretheren' tbh.
    I mean if their own fans want to big them up, OK I guess it's understandable, but fans of other clubs sucking up to them and making out they're bigger than they are? No thanks.

    Said it before many times, and I'll say it again. The DET has absolutely no journalistic merit at all. None. They only care about dedicating the maximum amount of screen space to adverts as possible and churning out the highest volume of 'articles' possible. Most of it is copied/pasted from twitter and/or taken from work other outlets have done. 
    Absolute rubbish.

    I am sick to death of our club dieing with a thousand cuts!
    I want a fresh start with all punishments done with, not kicking the can down the road constantly. The only reason we’ve been suffering all of this for so long is because no one in authority at dcfc has the class or honesty to put their hands up and say fair cop. We are a disaster of a club with no respect whatsoever for anyone else. If we held our hands up and showed a modicum of humility the EFL etc might be a little more sympathetic to our plight imo!

    Good points. I am pretty sure that any independent tribunal is going to look at the eye watering wage bill at DCFC that Mr Morris presided over, also the £28million outstanding to HMRC. The 'Covid ate my homework' excuse has become rather convenient for failing businesses.
