afar Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 The thing that scares me is that this really is becoming a lot like groundhog day when it comes to Ashley trying to sell. Imagine if we're stuck with this sort of fiasco another 2 or 3 times within the next year or so? All of this messing about with our club is really hard to take and it's going to seriously damage us, yet we're totally helpless. He's going to go through this every year until he sells the club, he realises that he made a mistake in buying us but is not prepared to cut his losses unless he gets a sweet deal, even in a depressed economy. I fully expect an announcement within a month or so that he's going to give it one more try, only to put the club up for sale yet again in January or at the end of the season. I am fully confident to make the statement that we will not be sold this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting the club up for sale every so often also has the added advantage for Ashley that he can immediately freeze any plans to run/develop the club in the interim period, shifting the blame onto the potential buyer for not meeting his unrealistic price. he's used it this time round to not only avoid investment but to quietly boot Shearer up the arse while secretly courting Joe kinnear.

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 For me NUFC is not NUFC with this prick in charge. I see it simply as Mike Ashley FC. In seeing it like this i can walk away. I refuse to put another penny into his pocket. I will watch the live games and catch commentary on the non televised ones. I am gutted to hear that there were people queing for tickets today. Those of you who own season tickets i commend you for supporting your team through thick (fat ) and thin but i cannot and will not let this fat bastard have another penny off me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dover Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Where are all the itk sources now? wheres thommo and his predicitons? Wheres the friends with a friend who fucked a friends mother who cleans the shithole at sjp? Where is the malaysian consortium? the arabs? the hong kong businessmen? The local money men? Barry moat? Let me tell you where, the same fucking place they`ve always been, someones over active imagination feeding bollocks to the masses. The facts are and always have been that Ashley wants out for as much cash a spossible, fat fred is the only option but he wont be done over by him, we are heading for administration as said by the sensible people (and me) on this forum from the moment he announced he was selling again. Dont reply with your GCSE or Business Studies bullshit about it being impossible, it is possible and it is going to happen, unless he sells to fat fred. FACT. So we can either keep believing all this shite or accept our fate, ive made my choice.......Bring on the bullshite. Im fucking fuming, and cant wait to get back to Dubai to start my save NUFC campaign with them rich sheiks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 if he had been making money no way he would even think about selling, buying us is the biffest misake he has ever made, but he then set about making even more mistakes that went towards costing him a fortune.
