Daily Mail reporting that there's a group of American businessmen who are set to 'rival Peter Kenyon's bid'. File under bullshit.

 

I'll rival his bid as well if they want. Sure I've got £0 knocking around somewhere.

All the journalists I've heard on things like the TF podcast and the live talk-ins seem to think Bishop is a bit of a joke amongst the press, and that he doesn't influence much at all.

 

The Joe Kinnear of the PR business I heard.

 

Sports Direct own 51% of his company so not only is he a total puppet. His livelihood is tied to the success of SD.

 

There will never be a situation where his line of PR is for the benefit of the club and thus should be treated as a dangerous adversary.

Buyers interested at 300m but not when threat of relegation

We are safe

Price is increased to 400m

Buyers are not interested at that price

We invest nothing

We perform badly and are under the thread of relegation

Price reduced to 300m

goto start

Not that they are remotely interested in NUFC but they deserve demonising. As far as I know, our royal family or government aren’t interested in buying a football club. Two wrongs and all that.

 

They do deserve demonising, but only if we apply those same standards to everyone and admit our own Govt has done some pretty shady shit and will do again at every opportunity it suits them.

 

As you say, let's focus on Ashley.

 

Have we been killing journalists? Do we cane people, or cut their hands off, behead people? Did we have a hand in one of the worst terrorist attacks against civilians? it's not the same, even remotely.

 

Nah we just bomb people and sell the Saudis weapons ...

More inclined to believe it when there's no name mentioned tbf. And also, if it's KB it would most likely be Sky with the 'exclusive'.

 

Having said that, I'm just sticking to the belief that nowts happening until we're actually sold.

:lol:

 

Not even trying the old 'that would reveal my source' wank.

 

This dude has been completely played. What a loser.

 

More likely he hasn't hit his ad revenue quota for the month/couldn't be arsed to do some actual journalism.

 

Why go to the effort of investigating if there's any truth behind what their source (ha) has said when it's easier to copy and paste the last few articles, move some of the text around and just change the location of the consortium.

 

Still going to get people happy to read through ad infested pages for no new news whatever, but hey at least when they get to the bottom of the page they can then click on the link to the article about Ronaldo taking  a selfie in his car cause there's some real news there.

 

What's annoyed me most with the media turning on Ashley is it only happened after Ashley Out etc did their job for them. It was the same with Pardew. They were happy to continue with the same old clichés and bullshit until actual facts and statistics etc were laid out for everyone to see.

Unless they've living in a cave for the last decade they shouldn't really need a warning.

 

Nah, most fans of other clubs were lead to believe 'He's done a good job up there. Put a lot of money into the club. Deluded fans expect too much and hate him cause he's cockney', up until recently.
