Dave Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 BT Sport reporting that the lawyers Ashley has put in charge of selling the club have been inundated with enquiries. That's a Press Association piece from this morning: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-4988392/Ashley-seeking-Newcastle-buyer-funds-invest-heavily-players.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Little Waster Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 The idea that Ashley would give a fuck who he would sell us to is both laughable and telling . To me it means hes not serious about selling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Well we can all trust in the FA's fit and proper person test to ensure we get bought by someone ethical and benevolent http://cdn.smosh.com/sites/default/files/ftpuploads/bloguploads/laughing-gifs-pillow-cover.gif Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Ashley selling us for a nice profit, buying a Sunderland in administration for buttons and Pardew to lead his new team to the premier league would be our best hope at this stage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Think Branson would be great though, guy has bundles of ambition, always hoped when we had Virgin ties he'd rescue us. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Richard Branson knows fuck all about football and cares even less. I worked at Northern Rock when Virgin Money took over. Virgin Money became the NUFC shirt sponsor. We beat Man U 3 - 0 in our first game with the new sponsor. Branson turned up to the Head Office. He kept referring to "Newcastle beating Manchester United three love". He wasn't being funny by saying "love". It was pure cringe. Virgin Money now do a Manchester United savings account. Branson is a carpet bagger. He goes into companies, buys them, calls them Virgin something then sells them. Companies pay a franchise fee to use the Virgin brand name. Branson does not own Virgin Media, Virgin Money, Virgin Trains, etc. Those companies pay to use the Virgin brand name. He bought the F1 Manor Grand Prix team, called it Virgin Racing, did shit then sold it on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 The thing is, if he’s not going to sell, why do everything he’s done the past couple of months? The interview with Sky where he practically begged somebody to buy us. The statement released yesterday saying the club is for sale? What’s the point? Just to toy with the fans? Does he really give that much of a s*** to wind us up like that? I honestly think he does want out. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens. Same. I'm just hoping it's Staveley/the people she represents in for us. If not, just someone who'll give a s*** and not be a t***. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karjala Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 This whole thing just sounds like another Fat Cashley piss take. Loads of rumours recently about interest, and he comes out to say "we are for sale, bids welcome" to effectively say theres actually been fuck all interest. Then comes out with the "I care about the club" and will look for owners with money and let them make part payments bullshit to add to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Toon Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Saw this on twitter before and have dismissed it as nowt although if it's true and we never get private planes from there ever then there could be something in it.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 The thing is I'm sure he wants out, but he'll only sell up if he gets a cracking fee for the club and even then he'd probably sell us to someone dodgy just out of spite!

I’m not aware of any 747 that lands regularly, though it is said that the Emirates flight is popular with the Arabs who like to come over for Newcastle Racecourse.
