Rafalove Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Can’t believe we’ve sunk as low as wanting Red Bull to take us over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 "According to Respected Sources at NUFC".... of those who would know, I wouldn't respect any of them! And its a bit of a nothing 'exclusive' really. Doesn't tell you when these talks allegedly took places, or the outcome - positive/negative, etc. Can't wait to see Easy Ryder pick it up though.

Matt Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 If RB took over a PL club would they be able to change name, colors etc? Branding is not permitted in club names in the English professional game or in the top four levels of non-league either. Dunston UTS had to change their name when they went up this summer.

triggs Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Red Bull would buy someone in the lower leagues if they were entering the English market. Don't really get the hate for them personally compared to other owners Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 at this point i don't really care who buys us as we peaked at Rafa and we're not going to be able to enjoy anything again as supporters of this club until Mike is gone (dead or sold) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Don't really get the hate for them personally compared to other owners same My hunch is it's probably something to do with them changing the name and the colours of the "lucky" club in order to turn them into an advert.

TBG Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Would be some backlash if they renamed the stadium to Red Bull@St Jame's Park.

Well they're just more open about it but better to be an advert for soft drinks than an advert for UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia or even Sports Direct Saw a German bloke on reddit the other day going on about why they were so hated and it was just watery nonsense reading him try to justify why it's ok for Bayer Leverkusen, Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg but somehow reprehensible when its Red Bull. In a perfect world of course it wouldn't happen but there are so many worse things happening in football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Depends how attached you are to your club, its heritage and its cultural attachment to your city I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Hoffenheim are pretty universally hated in Germany too from my experience. They just carry less threat that RBL and are a sole entity rather than a 'sporting group'. I guess at least with Bayer and Wolfsburg they're two football clubs at least associated with businesses absolutely entwined and essential in the towns that they operate in.

Wullie Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Leverkusen and Wolfsburg were originally formed as the works teams too, like 100 years ago or something. I'm not sure it's exactly the same as nicking an existing club and changing the colours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
