Hughesy Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 the man is worth £2 billion, ffs that's £2000 million! what sort of hole would an investment of £50 million put in that? it's 2.5% of his worth, he'll make that in either interest of more profit from his business, it's obviously got personal, no doubt about it. not too keen on the idea myself, we hate chelsea and citeh for being a rich mans plaything and earning f*** all so can't say I'd be happy if we done exactly that. Wrong - we DON'T hate Chelsea and Spurs because they are rich men's playthings...we hate them because we are not in the same league but have bigger crowds. I couldn't give a toss how we get success as long as we get it and you are forgetting that in the 90s WE were the ones doing the spending with SJH and KK - remember Shearer etc ? speak for yourself, I don't hate spurs, as far as I'm aware their spending is based on what they've earned and their own risk (debt), like we did, SJH didn't give a hand out, a hand in if anything as he was a taker out of cash unlike abramovic.meanwhile many complain that that sort of thing is killing the game. so what about ashleys gambling, it's his money, why don't you put more of your money into the club ? Are you feeling OK..?? That last sentence was possibly one of the silliest I have seen on here....has it occurred to you that I actually don't OWN the club or have a couple of billion pounds ? Your beloved Mike does.... For your information, I spent a great deal of my own time running around(petrol at my cost and no fee involved)buying up shares during the Magpie Group campaign so we could have a better football club - which we got. I bought STs and shares in the club too. so I put my money where my mouth was. As for your comment about SJH, if he hadn't rescued the club in 1992, there would have been NO KK, NO New Stadium and maybe a club like Sheff Weds. What have YOU done for NUFC apart from be a Soopafan ? that sentence was silly and delibertely so, it was to play on the silliness of you stamping your foot, pouting your bottom lip and folding your arms like an 8yr old in a huff because the nasty man didn't do what you wanted him to with his own money. the bit re john hall is that he didn't really put any money in when we were spending, the club used it's incomings and debt. as far as I remember lady hall put up £250,000 in the early days to buy brian kilcline and that was it. as regards what do I do, I buy my season ticket and thats it, don't buy strips or other mechandise and if I had ashley's money the last thing I'd do is buy a football club. I withdraw my earlier remark - THIS comment is the silliest I have seen on here so far. I won't even give it credibility by responding. Pathetic. Alright Douglas - calm down.

LRD Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 There was a lad on toontastic (and probably here at some point) who claimed to be at school with DL's son. Can't remember his name but needless to say he was full of s***. don't all shout me down but I know a source very close to both MA and DL and was told they are looking to spend 15 to 20M this window..The source is extremely good but more than the above i cannot give..... i know most on here will shout me down but i just wanted to post what i was told ! i know we still have spent nothing but i think we all probabily agree there is some intent here My source was the son of our Derek looks like he was right DDUK was right on that occasion tbf. Although how much Llambias is involved in Ashley's business atm including any potential sale of the club is questionable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
