Geordie Ahmed Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 "I'm me and I'm going to talk about making an error, I should not have changed the name of St James' Park. I shouldn't have done that." Full interview apparently on Super Sunday, if you can stomach it. Nah it's a specific programme - 7pm for an hour. wait there's a one hour special ashley interview? 30 minutes according to the tv guide, still 30 minutes of bullshit no doubt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 The way the price of players has gone it's difficult to imagine who could afford to buy NUFC and invest enough. Barely any clubs make a profit. I'd hope the club wasn't bought by a group looking to make money. Unless it was a group like the owners of Man City I can't see it happening. Buying a football club doesn't make much business sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackandWhite Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 What really made me laugh about what he was saying is that Huddersfield and Brighton can generate 40 million + each to get the players they need and are seeking yet we can't. He is taking our fan base to be completely stupid and going by how many of our fans on twitter, etcI have seen agreeing with him and sympathising with him he's probably not wrong to do so either.

mrmojorisin75 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 mind, interesting thing from the clips i'd like to see expanded on tonight which was the bit about rafa being 100% in charge of who comes and goes and using the money i think we're all in agreement that if rafa was promised £80m and ashley changed his mind and said £40m then rafa might have walked, however if the amount available hasn't changed but they can't make it stretch given the fees this summer and inability to get players out then it's a different story perhaps suppose i'm saying it would be a strange move for ashley to go on tv saying he's not interfering in player transfers if he is because it's hard to see how rafa would let that go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The amount of people within our own support who agree with Ashley on this is incredibly depressing. Even on Reddit it's predominantly fans who've fallen for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even on Reddit it's predominantly fans who've fallen for it. You've got to be thick as fuck to hear 'we can't compete with Man City and think yeah he's right you know'. Sorry. I can only rationalise it as being virtuous to be positive in the face of anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Exactly, it's as obvious an exaggerated strawman argument as it gets. It's only intention is to make reasonable expectations seem deluded and unreasonable. How there are people who can't see that within our own fanbase is pathetic.

Personally I think due to the timing off it I think it's more directed to Rafa. Obviously we've yet to see it's full content but what I have seen is with regards Transfers and Rafa. It's a really odd situation as you have Rafa now having to defend himself via the press: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4785254/Rafa-Benitez-not-happy-Newcastle-board-transfers.html These two have clashed, and after the raft of interviews Rafa did this week where he talked about the lack of transfers, Ashley feels the need to do one himself. It's just bizarre - only at NUFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Sheer nonsense quotes. Why even mention Man City in the same breath? I've not seen a single fan demand competition with City, not even the thickest. However, competing with the likes of fucking Brighton and Palace would be nice.
