SEMTEX Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Or the club could spend its own money instead of being used to repay the debt. hold on, are you saying ashley should let his 100m+ just ride like? Probably not, but serves the cunt right for not doing the due diligence when he bought us. Fat cunt. nonsense No it's not. He didn't do due diligence, only absolute idiots would spend 125M on a business and not actual see any of the books. Whilst this is correct, you cannot expect said idiot to just take the debt on the chin and scratch it off as "his bad". NUFC's shit management made the debt, NUFC will pay off the debt. Not that I think this should affect our transfer spending in any way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's his own company we're talking about here, not two separate entities. NUFC can't run off with his cash. There's absolutely no way it's acceptable for us to spend £0 in transfer fees so that he can get his money back (does he have a big leccy bill or something?) How much is ok for him to take out in your view then? Just what we would have spent in transfers or can we go ahead and take the lot and bankrupt the club? This attitude amongst our fans of "he's the owner, he can do what he wants" is disgusting tbh. Ronaldo's right about the pathetic specimens we have become. The Yank cunts tried this with Liverpool and were ran out of town, it didn't matter how much money they had, the fans made their position untenable. We just carry right on licking Ashley's ring.

That's wrong about Liverpool. They were forced to sell the club due to not being able to payback the banks who lent them the money to buy the club.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Yes in revenue, in debt, in anything you care to use to measure it. We're the 20th richest club in world football and the 6th richest in England in terms of revenue. We are also guaranteed at least 25 million pounds extra tv revenue in the next twelve months which will propel us up that world table. Yes, but we have over £100m in debt and up until a couple of years ago were losing £30m+ a year. That's a fact isn't it? So either we need affordable debt sources or Ashley needs to use his own money. Or the club could spend its own money instead of being used to repay the debt. You said yesterday it was unacceptable for him to be withdrawing his debt, now you're saying it's fine. I think it's acceptable for him to take some debt repayments out... repaying debt is part of a company's operations. It's pretty hard to argue about specific amounts though.

Guest neesy111 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Ashley will be still the owner of the club while fans keep going to SJP and we are in the PL.

Just saying "we've got masses of debt" is a misrepresentation. It's like me taking £1000 out of my savings and putting it in my current account, and claiming I have debt problems. I don't. I'm not going to send the heavies round, or come and confiscate my own telly. We have more than enough revenue to spend on players without adding a penny to Mike Ashley's debt. The only reason he needs that money back is greed, and to piss us off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going down your route of borrowing as a display of ambition, we'd be spending similar amounts just paying interest on bank loans.
