Dr Venkman Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Front page of the Sun tomorrow 'Hitlers In Toon' - Infamous Nazi dictator is back from the dead and has vowed to make Nufc Premier League champions when he takes the reigns at SJP. Some clueless cunts would believe it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Even if it was Ashley that approached Intermedia, everyone is making the assumption that it was to sell the club. Ashley knows Intermedia are looking to get into footy in Europe so why not offer them a piece of the action, and when I say a piece, I mean a small piece, not the whole club. It's called inviting investment. Businesses do this all the time without selling the family jewels. Very good point, that could be why Wise and Jimenez are in Dubai next couple of weeks. Which would be understandable if the club was owned by someone with limited funds (ie previous regime) and wanted it to expand, but in Ashley's circumstances it really does make me ask: why? You don't become billionaire without exploiting every money making opportunity. I'd imagine a medium term lease on the surrounding land including allowed development would be very profitable to the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/jul/07/newcastleunited.premierleague?gusrc=rss&feed=sport Wheyze Keyze Louise peddling more unsubstantiated (and clearly plaigiarized) bullshit. Incidentally I set foot in her delightful "city" tonight for the first time in about six years when I had to get the rail replacement from sunderland into the Toon. You know when you slag a place off then next time you go there, you realise it's really not as bad as you thought? sunderland's nothing like that. What a fucking hovel.

Tsunami Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I've heard that the Govt are putting pressure on MA to sell to the Bin Laden's in the hope that Osama will turn up in a Toon shirt & they'll nab him at the match. Brilliant plan, he'll be the one with a beard. Could be foiled if the Bin Laden's hatch a cunning plan & give everyone a free Osama mask instead of a scarf that day. I'd certainly wear mine & hope that I don't get shot for showing my support for my club. Osama, oooooooh Osama, oooooooh He's from Afghanistan I'd let him shag my mam.

Guest Spark Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I hate it when papers come out with, "Toon fans think this, Toon fans think that", when there is actually no way of knowing what we think. For some reason they seem to think this Frank Gilmour bloke represents the entire fanbase. Bunch of wankers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I wonder how many members his 'Association' has? This site had 2500 odd. I bet if you email the press or setanta or something telling them his association is a load of bollocks and we have 2500 members, someone off here could be the 'Official' spokesmen for the fans as I bet we on here have a much better idea of what other fans think. Only problem is whoever it was wouldnt say what the media want. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magpies have installed a new-look executive management team ahead of the new season which is committed to furthering the long-term development of the Club. And, with reports emerging over the weekend that the Club could be put up for sale, Mr Llambias has moved quickly to correct such rumour. "At a time when everyone at Newcastle United is working hard to prepare for the new season ahead, it is annoying that we have to continually correct inaccurate newspaper stories," he explained. "Whoever is putting these stories around is clearly trying to destabilise the Club and you wonder what their motives are for doing this. "By putting a new management structure in place this year, by investing in new signings at first team and academy level, and by introducing cheaper tickets for our younger fans, the long-term commitment and vision for Newcastle United is there for all to see.
