    He looks like something you'd find grave robbing.

    Not a fan then.

    Don’t blame you.

    I hope they get shafted.

    Seems we’ve settled on a figure of £15m for Ca$hworth…not bad in the grand scheme of things if true. No doubt them ****ers will come sniffing around a few of our players in the years to come and the Man Utd tax will come into effect again. Cnuts

    Looks like we have but reports now saying £6m up front and £3m a season for next two seasons. No idea of that is lazy journalism what with us needing £6m by end of June for a PSR

    Saw it on Newcastle United News fb page but seen other reports since with slightly different figures…been all quiet on this for a while so something must be close I reckon…will wait to see it on NUFC.com. Can’t understand why we would agree to an amount up front then the rest over two seasons or whatever so I hope that’s bollocks. I’d take £10m this season and £10m next season or £15m all in one go but no less than that if they want him. I’d like to see him ****ing rot in his potting shed for two years being perfectly honest.

    The journalists are literally writing what they want to believe on anything Newcastle related. It's a method of self soothing.

    He literally finished the London Marathon, got interviewed by Gabby Logan and started beelin on about how bad it is, how he's on gardening leave, how ridiculous we are etc etc. Can't see it being that close.

    I think journalists are looking at reports we have shortlisted 3 candidates for the position and will look to appoint by end of next week and thinking that means we’ll agree a deal for DA.

    Self smoothing? Nah they just get paid for stories to attract attention. Reality is boring and there's nothing going on atm so they invent crap.

    They write the same for any club.

    According to The Telegraph, Man Utd are only willing to offer £2million in compensation.

    If I was him I would be seriously asking why they wouldn’t meet half way.

    They can’t think that highly of him.

    Yeah, Ratcliffe really is a prize twat. IF Ashworth really is "one of the best in the business", then pay for him what he's worth. But IF you don't think he's that valuable, then STFU and stop crying like a 5 year old.
