Guest toonlass Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Yes - by all means protest at the Leeds game and call the b*stards what they are - but don't spoil Sir Bob's day for God's sake. This is for Bob not the vermin running the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 And then the fans will just get the old "oh not the best fans in the world afterall then" blah blah Ashleys just doin his own thing, its long past him caring about boycotts id say. I dont see him staying regardless, hes just waiting it out for the best price with no consideration of how it'll affect the side atall. He could care less. What can ya do. At best itd effect any potential buyers view of the club & perhaps make them more wary of the situation. Will Ashley consider this atall, i doubt it.

Teasy Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 http://www.sundaysun.co.uk/sport/newcastle-utd/newcastle-utd-news/2009/07/26/united-s-overdraft-fear-for-prospective-buyers-79310-24240042/ United’s overdraft fear for prospective buyers Jul 26 2009 by Neil Farrington, Sunday Sun THE cost of Newcastle’s search for a buyer is mounting – with the club’s overdraft understood to top £40m. And that figure could rise further later this week, when United pay a £5-6m player wage bill. The size of Newcastle’s working overdraft will be of obvious concern to would-be buyers. It is at least one extra liability to be budgeted for, and a headache set to be made worse by a crippling combination of Premier League player wages and drastically reduced revenue in the Championship. What remains unclear is how much of the interest-free loans made to the club by owner Mike Ashley would need to be repaid by his successors. Other complicating factors in any deal include former manager Kevin Keegan’s outstanding constructive dismissal claim, a demand from former deputy chairman Douglas Hall for £1m and the estimated £20,000 a week being paid to Dennis Wise under the terms of his departure from his director of football post. Meanwhile, the BBC will wait at least another week before asking Alan Shearer if he wants to resume his Match of the Day role for the start of the season. Having been aware from when they first employed him of Shearer’s desire to one day manage Newcastle, the BBC have put no pressure on him to map out his future during a frustrating summer spent waiting for the call to take the United job full-time. Shearer would like senior players like Habib Beye to stay on if he is appointed manager, but the defender could be poised to depart this week, as he is prepared to discuss a move to Hull City. Yet more rumour and bollocks, I don't believe a word that comes from the Sunday Sun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianovthetoon Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Would be fun to co-ordinate a row of people sitting in the East Stand, giving them all a t-shirt with a letter on which spelled out "Mike Ashley is a cunt, please leave now". No chanting about him, nothing just a simple message to the watching world on how we all feel. Plus if Ashley or Llambias have the balls to attend it would be straight facing them for the match!!

Surely another reason not to do it tonight, don't give the world another reason to laugh at us. Tonight should not be upstaged due to club politics.

Paulie Walnuts Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 in all my 30+ years as a Newcastle this feels the most despondent and depressing time - worse than the worse of FF and even McKeag. We've just being hung out to dry by the fat one and every day that nothing happens sees us drifting and falling further behind even the championship sides - and to think we were a top 4 team just a few short years ago. So pissed off! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ashley isnt there its not a surprise but Llamsarse i would imagine he would be there after being at the pre season games.Ashley being the owner should ignore the current situation and be man enough to be there to honour Sir Bobby but we know he has not a decent bone in him but could be jumping to conlclusions and he or they might be there.

Yeah so we all want Al as manager, that doesn't mean he should have any more knowledge of the sale than us, he isn't a club employee or anything.

Shearergol Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 How laughable that Shearer and Dowie are just as clueless about it all as we are. I think they know exactly what is happening. Ashley won't appoint them, so they have to wait for the new owners. They probably know that there won't be any new owners, so they're just getting on with their lives.

Cant understand why Ashley wouldnt give them rolling contracts ffs! Not wanting to invest any more money into the club is fair enough, but he would get the players, staff and fans off his back in one blow. The club looking more stable would also be alot more attractive to potential buyers, than it is right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
