Liam Liam Liam O Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Presumably this gives NUST an opportunity to put together their bid for the club without any timescales & deadlines? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Ashley will not get nearly as much money as he thinks from renaming the stadium: 1. Its an established stadium that will be called St James Park by all locals no matter the sign on the outside - its not newly built 2. Who is going to invest in a rename/rebranding and deal with Ashley given his recent history with investors? Ashley has just f*cked Moat, paid Freshfields late, f*cked his shareholders in the City with Sports Direct PO, talked endless shit about all of his former managers and former employers, totally f*cked Freddie Sheperd, and f*cked everyone who has considered investment into NUFC - he's running out of people to swindle 1. They wont care about that, the exposure they'll get on Sky et al. will be enough for them. 2. You'd be surprised, especially as it'll probably be a lovely, lucrative shirt 'n' stadia deal for whoever wants the rights. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 What's the problem with naming rights? If it brings in some serious wedge I couldn't give a flying fuck what its called. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious wedge for us to spend on...loan signings? It won't be serious wedge, and we'll have flogged part of our history to the highest bidder.

Cronky Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Wraith speaking a lot of sense for once Yeah? I thought it was a totally incoherent ramble. There's no point in the club changing hands unless it's going to someone who can take things forward and provide fresh investment. I can't see that Moat was able to offer anything other than not being Mike Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattynufc Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 From nufc.com match report vs Donny: one stoppage in play accompanied by a loud rendition of the "get out of our club" ditty, which left home players looking at each other blankly. Not that I noticed any players looking confused (hard to from level 7), but hopefully they have clicked on as to what we meant now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Jerusalem Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Fast forward to 2nd week of next May.... Mike Ashley puts the club up for sale for the 3rd time and says he wants 70million pounds up front for the struggling Championship club. Fast forward to last week of next May.... Derek Lambias, having streaked across the pitch naked says that 7 offers of over £70 million have been received fr9m prospective buyers and that Seymour Pierce have been re-appointed to oversee the sale of the club. Seymour Pierce say that a sale will probably go through by the end of June. Fast forward to next June... No new signings. Last players from relegated side of 2009 sold for a combined total of £3.5 million. Fast forward to next July... Club will be sold soon says Keith Harris of Seymour Pierce. Barry Moat offers Mike Ashley £10 million for Newcastle United. Fast forward to day before transfer deadline day next August... Ashley announces that prospective buyers of the club will not pay the money he wants for the club so he is taking Newcastle United off the market again. Hughtons contract is extended by 5 years due to the remarkable work he has done in helping NUFC reach 13 th place in the Championship last season. Fast forward to transfer deadline day next August.. Newcastle secure signings of Dean Windass, Paul Huntington and Teddy Sheringham to complement the remaining 10 members of the squad. The gibbering, slavering David Craig of Sky Sports News complements "Mike" for his sterling efforts at running NUFC and tells the country that the geordie fans are now 100 % behind Mike and Derek! Fast foward to next October.... Newcastle United after 9 succesive defeats so far this season appoint Dennis Wise as Chris Hughtons assistant. Dennis has vast experience in identifying players and has worked very successfully at the club before says Derek Llambias. Nah, that'll never happen - surely Lablias will say that there are more than two offers of £70 million. The rest has potential though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it saves us selling anyone else in January it will be a start tbh. Do you believe that will be the case? I'd like to think so. If it's not to buy players with, what do you think it could be for other than to stave off any further sales? I think his best chance now is to get us promoted, and there's a chance he could do that by retaining what we have already. I can't see any value to him in us kicking around in this division though.

BlueStar Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 The thing about the naming thing is that it's completely irreversible. Even if we ever get rid of Ashley, no club nowadays goes from sponsored ground name to "traditional" name, this is Ashley's permanent legacy. Where the fuck are our hooligans? Come on you cunts, it's all very well smashing pub windas and throwing coins, where are you when we actually need some headcases to torch a car or bottle a fatso?
