Abs buzzing with the result, but couldn't just get a good draw one time ffs.

What's wrong with that draw, Mond?

Tottenham are terrible!

Watched some of it, and thought it was a good game that you deserved to win.

Would've been nice to get a home tie, Spurs will obv be clear favourites to win.

Home tie vs Bournemouth/Sheff Utd/Derby and a good shout of a semi final and a shot at Wembley would've been nice, still though, get there one time plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Yeah, was messing about, and if Pardiola's boys can play like that, you're in the semisssssssssss

I hope you boys get there, I really do!

As I already posted in another thread, I'm completely over discussing Newcastle United on here, just could someone help me out plz...

Don't have to listen to the whole thing, just from 1:35 onwards, he says " I could also say the same about Sammy Ameobi, Mehdi Abeid, Paul Dummitt, xxxxx" what is it he says here with that hilariously endearing cockey smirk on his face ?

lol think there is a long way to go before these issues become reality!!!  Rangers got a 6% chance of winning the Scottish cup and Newcastle a similar chance of finishing in the top 6 this season.  Less than 0.4% chance of both happening this season.  Ashley will be long gone north of the border by the time it is an issue.  Total nothing story.

'It is understood Ashley misjudged Uefa’s strict rules ensuring the integrity of their competitions. Although he only holds around nine per cent of Rangers shares, he has appointed his own people, including former Newcastle managing director Derek Llambias, to the Rangers board in return for financial assistance.'  One thing is for sure Ashley is a shrewdie and he will have known the rules inside out.  He will also have known it was less than 1% likely the situation happened as well for it to even be a realistic issue.

He plans to sell newcastle anyway end of next season when he books are balanced, newcastle being in europe would just be a bonus for him.
