What a load of bollocks

Class, bit crass though.

I wonder if Hughtons already been to him and said he needs these, sounds like it as thats basically what we are missing.

We'd be better using Ranger as target man allowing Carroll to make runs into the box, I know he's not the quickest but if we can play it to ranger, get the midfield to support him, fire in a cross thatll be our best method of scoring imo.

Of course he is planning to stay longer, I think he thinks that if he gets us promoted we'll see that as a positive sign and that he's learned from his mistakes. I don't think he ever wanted to sell us unless he got a ridiculous price.

Does for Hughton as well and that aint it.

So roll up, roll up & put your name to something that the MD of company trying to flog you the "@" is telling you nobody is going use. Aye, but his restaurant IS actually at Claridges. In what way is Sports Direct @ St. James' Park? Have they thought this through, even for five minutes? They are going to start selling Sport Direct Clobber at the ground maybe.

Why don't you's lot stick an offer in? Because they like spending our TV license money on crap like Groundforce and shit.

I'd have him back tbh.

If you can post the article that would be great. I love getting linked with youngsters I would if I could find it again, it was a quote from Llambias.

Defefnders who don't mark their forwards very well don't get noticed as much on telly. defenders who just ponce about dont either, you can't make amistake if you dont challenge, who was that centre half we used to have that wouldn't go up for headers, 3/4 years back I think.

Well maybe they should put films on during the matches, football we are playing is so boring I could do with something to watch of note. Or maybe play the 95-96 seasons matches on it so we can pretend we are still decent.

Even the best defenders make mistakes, I think its how they recover with alot of them that makes you a good defender

Aye but he's probably put the club down to go to Simon Crabtree in his will should he die.

nah he'll just sell em and tell us to bring our own crate to sit on.

Oh dear. Cant see pork pie selling shirts made of silk like, maybe toilet paper to keep the costs down. Thats a league 2 badge.

I'm with you! So what we gonna do? Frame him for something?

I've read it a dozen times and I don't understand what this post is trying to say at all, but it's got me intrigued as to what you think Ashley's plan was/is. Are you also saying we should be grateful we're not Chelsea or something? There is a clause against his loan saying he can charge interest at 0.5% over the inter bank lending rate (from 07-08 accounts). He didn't charge it that year but he could in the future (though to be fair, it's still a very good rate for a football club loan even if he does charge it). He could be charging the club for it now for all we know (but it would currently only be just over £1m a year). There's nothing to stop a buyer from borrowing money against the club to fund the purchase (apart from the current difficulties in borrowing cash, but that will ease in the future) so saying that the debt to Ashley will be written off is meaningless and not even necessarily true. If Ashley manages to sell the club (even if we're promoted) for anything near what he has spent on it, it will be absolutely criminal considering the significantly worse state the club will be in. If Ashley doesn't sell I have no doubt that at the very best we will be a constant PL struggler as he claws back his investment bit by bit. How can it be meaningless? Ashley bought a company for for £130m which had £70m worth of debt it needed to service. Also the existence of that £70m worth of debt mean that borrowing any more was highly unlikely, if not dangerous. If the club gets sold, £80m or so will purchase a company with £0 debt, ignoring any working capital overdraft, which will be less than £10m in any event. This means less debt to service, but also the ability (if a purchaser wants to) to gear the company up and borrow at the appropriate level, when borrowing conditions improve. The club will have debts when sold, whatever money Ashley puts in is a loan to the club so now I have that at around 120M, factor in the 22m Overdraft that means we are 142M in debt and will be when we are taken over unless the club generates insane profits.

It's only a name man calm down. yes, so would you be happy if someone changed your name! Provided it was something cool, used to get called Chicago (no idea why) which I didn't mind and my mates call me Nos. If you can't see this is a blatant pisstake, then I can only assume you don't bat an eyelid when people call you t*** in the street. Assuming this article is accurate, it's the same thing for me. It's the most petulant response I could imagine Ashley making after hearing of fans' discontent at the mooted re-branding. "f*** it. Not only will I re-name the stadium, I'll call it something s*** and I'll do it right now, not next season." I was just winding David Icke up, I know whats going on, I was saying it in another thread, just wanted to see his reponse if someone replied as he requested.

I think Ashley does or did own a large proportion of Umbro.

We? You have already said you wont go back til he leaves. jesus, like we have said, you can protest outside the stadium Be better of going and protesting at the Sports Direct Head Offices tbh, he isn't the outright owner anymore, if that contiinued for a prolonge period of time it would give the company bad press and the SD board would pressure him to do something or force him out.

Hang the fuckers from the Sports Direct logo. Aye but then his Wife will own us then, probably not a great idea.

BOLLOCKS Llambias just said they'd spoend at the most 1m if they had to. Loan deal during the Norwegian off-season apparently. Spicey. How long would that be for?
