Dr Venkman Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 His time here has got to be coming to an end. It just has to be. Kinnear, no signings, still employing Pardew. None of it makes sense. He has to be thinking of selling. of coarse he wants to sell but the same issue remains, theres no one interested and no hint of anyone being remotely thinking of possibly considering the chance of enquiring let alone bidding. Is there anyone monitoring the situation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 His time here has got to be coming to an end. It just has to be. Kinnear, no signings, still employing Pardew. None of it makes sense. He has to be thinking of selling. Why do catastrophically bad decisions mean he's selling though? They're decisions that all point towards him recouping as much money as possible. Cheap manager with a remit to lower the wage bill, all the cost-cutting measures across the club like the bore-hole and so on, no signings to save money and all the rest of it. Our best hope is a few more midtable/top-half seasons (and I suppose a miracle cup run), he gets his money back and sells up to someone who fancies having a successful football club instead of a vehicle to promote cheap sporting tat.

None of it makes sense. He has to be thinking of selling. Why do catastrophically bad decisions mean he's selling though? He's not putting in any effort anymore. He's gotten lazy. If I get lazy with something it usually means I want to fuck it off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 He won't sell if he can take out 20m+ a season from the club he'd be daft not to, with the new TV money from this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 He won't sell if he can take out 20m+ a season from the club he'd be daft not to, with the new TV money from this season. Does the new tv deal give the clubs the cash up front or is it season by season...if its cash up front i could see him ranking most of it his way. leaving nufc the basic operating money. Sell to generate money for transfers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 He won't sell if he can take out 20m+ a season from the club he'd be daft not to, with the new TV money from this season. He won't sell because there aren't any interested parties wanting to buy the club. When we dropped into the Championship that was the ideal time for someone to buy at a knockdown price but all we got was Barry Moat and his" lend us a fiver" bid. Foreign buyers seem to gravitate towards London other than Liverpool or Manchester who have built up worldwide following through success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I think he'll sell when the debt is lowered enough to make the price make sense to a buyer. Sadly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foreign buyers seem to gravitate towards London other than Liverpool or Manchester who have built up worldwide following through success. there's also been the tendency to go for much cheaper championship clubs in recent years; Cardiff, Leicester, Hull Leeds and Watford off the top of my head all bought while in the championship while premier league clubs widely known to be available like us and Everton go untouched Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyn davies Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Really wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't attend one game this season. Has obviously lost all interest now. but will attend a lot of Rangers games checking on numbers of shirts selling, more so his potential next purchase Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly. erm isnt that a good thing? or you think will take more than 4yrs to lower the debt? It's that time between that's the unbearable part. Sorry if I wasn't clear, I was implying its going to take him some time lowering that debt (which at current rate, would take a few years imo) before he sells up, versus something quicker. If he was just going to write off most of the debt "debt owed" to himself and just sell the club at what he bought it for + some premium, I'd see a deal happening sooner than later - but clearly he wants the full investment returned less any debt he's paying down to himself. Fuck him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Why would he sell once he's reduced the debt given the extortionate sums he's taking out of the club at present? He'll just keep on taking it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he should write off the money he had to put in when we were relegated as that was down to his idiotic decision-making that season. Someone on here once said that with regards to Sports Direct, he always makes sure someone else pays for his mistakes so I guess we are the ones being made to pay or his NUFC ones.

thenige Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Have to support this stand he's making against Sky and BT, he's a brave man. Basically saying "You've given me loads of money, I'll be damned if I'll spend it making your product better by playing good football with better players." What a guy.
