Who has Newcastle lost to in recent cup runs? They weren't easy teams were they?

My only issue with wanting to go down is that you're no guarantee to go back up.

Oh we've definitely been unlucky in the cups for sure. Coming up against some real powerhouse clubs like Stevenage, Peterborough and a Poyet inspired Brighton twice!

Check this out Jatz - year's under Ashley are in red...really shows the huge ambition Ashley has had for the club since coming in.

They play their reserves in the cup to concentrate on the league. Your mob beat their reserve team 1-0 in the cup this season.

And that would be fine...if we actually tried in the league also! :$

From making the quarter/semi/final of the cups to fearing lower league opposition. :(

Glad we can still look forward to performing strongly in the league. Oh wait. :drunk:

How would they collect the money? That's around $25 Aussie so I'd be at least interested.

I'd suggest bank transfer.

I'd be pretty interested as well. Would be fun 'being' part of a club.

The only way to find out is to email the address. I suspect it is a bank transfer. I do wonder what the communication would be like to all that have taken a share? A weekly emailed newsletter? What sort of issues would fans be required to vote in? Every little thing, or just the big ones like away shirts and what have you?

Also, Jatz... is that avatar your creation? The weirdest thing is that I haven't seen the ostrich hybrid attempted yet. That's the first I've seen.

Wouldn't mind buying a share myself actually - assuming that would give you voting rights and some kind of regular emails on what's happening with the club?

Pm me your paypal details (including password) and I'll make the necessary arrangments from over here. ;)

Hyde is a bit of a hike away for me, so I might have to take some expenses for administration reasons, I'm sure you all understand. ;)
