Dr Venkman Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 But there's also the worldwide promotion of Sports Direct to consider... A £200m promotion campaign? I wouldn't deny he's using his power to get all he can and being a bit of dick about it but I'm not sure that's his primary motivation. i think you're under-estimating the power of advertising, the reach of the premier league, and how much it would cost to have that degree of exposure for up to ten years. more than 200m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzle Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Where do you get six million from? I was just proposing a hypothetical situation. How much do you think Tiote will go for when he leaves? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonTastic Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Danny Simpson contract talks broke down, QPR in for him- SSN Oh buggering f***. not really doesnt he have two years left on his deal? The bigger worry is if small fry like Danny Simpson won't agree to the terms of the contract how on earth will we get someone half decent in to replace. Ah thats right we don't replace.

Dr Venkman Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Why would he want worldwide promotion for a brand that only exists in England and how would he accomplish that through a club that's very sparsely supported outside it's own city? you've answered the first question yourself. do you only watch teams you support?

Wullie Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I love the irony of multi-millionaire Mike Ashley cracking down on the financial demands of greedy footballers btw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 We've probably offered him the same terms, ignoring the fact that when he signed we were a second tier club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 hmm yes, agreed, I too see no difference between someone who creates a business that employs thousands and a professional footballer. same thing really, they both earn a massive wedge, end comparison there. computer, print out results. *bzzt beep boop* diagnosis: horrible comparison *computer commits suicide* ~fin~ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LionOfGosforth Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Or how about 94-5 when we went 6 months with Kitson, Beardsley & Mathie? People again making it out as if this is something unique to Ashley and this club. I think we had a left back though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PineBarrens Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 This Ashley thing is almost becoming the new Keegan thing - even after he won his court case it was 'well he tried to kill Newcastle by claiming £123 billion and ownership of Fiji!!!' insteading of the air wasters like Bobbyule, Afternoon Fix et al not having the balls, wit or common sense to simply admit they were wrong and made to look like arses.
