It was a noble thought, a thought that was backed by many fans of NUFC, and a thought that was supposed to unite the Premier League.

Newcastle United have today released another statement, this time aimed at the press, and in particular the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday.

Of all the loathsome, inept and baffling decisions made and actions taken by Mike Ashley and his useless merrymen running the show on Barrack Road, he’s finally gone where I thought he could never go.
Having announced the decision to take the club off the market and install Chris Hughton as permanent manager, the official [...]
