If your house was worth £50k and you wanted £100k, then the market went up 30%, it would still be overpriced. I'm failing to see the justification for the price- so what if revenue doubles? The club has had huge inflows for years, and managed to spend even more. If we went up, we'd need investment to survive. If you want to be getting decent results and not just scraping then this will require further investment. There's your base. How would an investor get his money back? Where is the decent return on what would likely be £150m+ to buy a stable Premiership club? We make a loss and have done for years. A lot of this is down to mismanagement, but a lot is simply down to the fact that football is a rotten investment. To sustainably generate £10-15m of profit to justify that sort of investment seems very ambitious. Would fans be happy if transfers were modest while the shareholders took out that sort of cash on an annual basis? Justification for the price? You think the stadium is worthless? Training ground/academy worthless? How many people have paid for players that we havent seen money for yet? What about goodwill, sure the club isnt looking too rosey financially but its repairable for anyone with real business acumen. Liverpool was bought for about £400m and they still need a further £400m for a ground, hence they are going to be in debt for decades. £100m for a club which in all honesty is only a bit of depth away from walking this league isnt too far a stretch given the obvious advantages should you regain promotion. The club debts are by and large a result of gross mismanagement and downright stupidity, any new buyer who sees this and makes the right decisions and appointments can change all that. We all hate Ashley here but if he sold for £50m can you justifiably say thats a fair price when promotion and limited spending would claw that fee back in 18 months even in a eventual relegation. We could well have ended up with another schmuck on for a quick profit at that price... newcastle do not own their stadium, so to the club it is worthless.
