I am so sick of all this like, how many ITK's can there be? so many people saying I know this and that, its come down to a law of averages hasn't it really, keep on guessing and be right at some point.

I am 100% convinced that there will be no sale this season and if we do get promoted then he will think all will be forgiven and keep us anyway.

 

Not going to hang on waiting for things to happen that have came from some new membmer who could just be a SMB on a wind up.

Mid East denials

 

US progress - denials

 

The truth will come out

 

So, let me get this straight. The story about "your" progress yesterday will be reported in the Chron alongside a fresh mideast bid but will be denied by the club?

:lol:

spooky

Newcastle United quash groups' buy-out talk

CONFUSION today continues to surround the Toon takeover saga after two groups claimed they were close to buying the club.

 

Usually reliable sources close to one interested group contacted the Chronicle to say they had reached written agreement.

 

They claimed bosses had responded by saying they wanted to take development land out of the deal.

 

But Magpies managing director Derek Llambias today said the suggestion an official bid had been lodged was “not true”, a stance reinforced by Seymour Pierce, the investment bank charged with finding a buyer for the club by owner Mike Ashley. It comes as other sources close an American consortium hoping to stage a buy-out say their deal is close to crossing the finish line.

Geoff Sheard

 

Lancashire-based businessman Geoff Sheard is said to be the deal-broker fronting moves from a multi-billion pound New York-based company who want to buy the Toon.

 

Talks between the USA group and the club were thought to have collapsed last Monday but the consortium are understood to be returning to the UK over the weekend to try to conclude a deal.

 

The Chronicle understands the group behind Sheard’s approach is led by a wealthy American backer who already has big links in US Sports.

 

And the group say they will then aim to deploy the strategic holding company the Omnicom Group to rebrand the Magpies on a global scale.

 

Sources close to the Americans said they had last night reached an agreement and the matter was in the hands of their lawyers, but that was dismissed outright by Llambias when contacted by the Chronicle.

 

And Ashley’s linkman Jonathon Brill, who works as an intermediary between Seymour Pierce and the retail billionaire, said from the capital today: “Discussions are ongoing.” It comes as Llambias has been forced to close down his club e-mail account after being flooded with angry correspondence from fans and prank expressions of interest about a takeover.

 

Tyneside businessman Barry Moat is also still in the frame as discussions continue with the biggest stumbling block remains the size of United’s overdraft with Barclays Bank.

 

Meanwhile, an attempt by former Tottenham star Graham Roberts to launch a Barcelona-style fans buy-out appear to have collapsed.

 

As has been the case all summer it is difficult to know who to believe in this ongoing saga official communication at a premium.

 

There remains a distinct possibility Ashley will once again take the club off the market with interim manager Chris Hughton having steered United to the top of the Championship despite the uncertainty off the field.

Fair play to him. At least he is giving the info out 12 hours in advance. I have no problem with that.

 

I don't think anyone would have a problem giving out the info early, it's the coded messages and pretending to be some big ITK that's annoying.

If thats his bit of sport fine. He is getting his info from somewhere and has already said Dave knows who he is so it should be very easy for Dave to confirm sillious's stated position of working for a solicitor, should it not?

 

Over to you Dave.  O0

To be honest im not really bothered however those that are questioning him surely warrant a response from Dave, especially as a yay or nay is all thats needed. :coolsmiley:

I couldn't give a fuck if the buyer invests their own money tbh, if they run the club sensibly and with ambition we'll be fine. The potential is there; a small amount of speculation will see us up, cut the dead wood (Geremi etc) and get in a manager who you trust and back them within reason. Don't need to be especially wealthy to make a decent success of this club.

 

And there it is. It really is fucking easy to make this club a success as all one needs is common footballing sense. Ashley and his cronies have clearly lacked this and here we are, slowly clawing back to normalcy despite the fat one's ineptitude.

 

:facepalm:

 

I wish.

 

If it was as easy as you make out how come the people who have done the best job of trying in over half a bloody century are despised by so many and thought of as shit, unless the "so many" who think this way are total know-nowts?

 

You tell me, mate.

 

Because they lost their touch many years before they relinquished control, and left the club in a godawful fucking mess.

 

Obviously.
