Chris_R Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Keith Bishop is working overtime now. He has people spreading rumours that Newcastle have been sold to some Korean bloke now for £300 million. Utter shit. Literally seen 0 rumours like this. Yeah, Bishop can't post them on Twitter for fear of getting abuse, so he's just telling people in person down the pub. You'll have to wait for it to spread, old-school style.

Odear Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Anyone associated with Ashley, Bishop, Barnes or Charnley should be fair game. If you lay with the pigs you’ll end up smelling of shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonjam88 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Also doing that is the sought of negative PR that Bishop would jump on. He could spin this by getting her in the papers about how she has been affected by nasty Newcastle trolls on Twitter. He would probably make it look a lot worse than it actually was but it gives her publicity and him a chance to turn the public against Newcastle fans and what we are trying to do with getting Ashley out. He is a PR man he knows how to spin things negatively and let’s not hand him the weapons to use against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paully Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Martin Samuel - another clueless / Bishop'd cretin Ashley made the summer's best signing Even if the pre-planned closure of 31 House of Fraser stores goes ahead, Mike Ashley’s takeover is likely to save upwards of 11,000 jobs. So, of course, through football’s distorted lens, the benefit of this is being weighed against Newcastle United’s need for a striker, and cover at left back. ‘At least we now know where all the money has gone in Newcastle, which sort of sums the football club up under this owner,’ sniffed Alan Shearer, equating the disparate strands of Ashley’s business, as if 11,000 individuals, families, mortgages and household budgets, should really be balanced against the noble quest for a slightly higher than mid-table finish. Now we can all see there is a bigger and more successful club in waiting at Newcastle. That they have a fine manager in Rafa Benitez who would surely thrive given a more significant budget and an ambitious brief. So Ashley’s critics have a point. It is time to start looking up at what Newcastle might be, rather than settling for a mundane Premier League existence. Yet to imply the £90million spent on House of Fraser would be better invested in Newcastle squad men displays the most blinkered vision and sense of priority. If you are one of the 11,000 or more House of Fraser employees that will be spared the Job Centre, you may feel a little aggrieved to be told that your new employer’s money would have been more usefully spent on defensive cover. Particularly if this advice comes from a millionaire former professional footballer — as well-intentioned as Shearer’s opinion might be. And no, Ashley did not buy House of Fraser for altruistic reasons. He spied a business opportunity, because he is a businessman, and clinched a deal for £390m less than Chinese conglomerate Sanpower paid for House of Fraser in 2014. Yet a handy by-product of this is that a minimum 11,000 jobs will be preserved. Yes, there are hard negotiations ahead over the 10,000 pension fund members, plus money owed to suppliers and concession holders. It is far from a perfect solution; but when companies go bust it rarely is. Ashley’s Newcastle takeover in 2007 was also the answer to a financial crisis. The reason the club were on the market was that Sir John Hall and the Shepherd family had run up short-term debts of £70m and recorded substantial further losses. Hall had been trying to sell his stake for three years and Ashley paid off £144m in external debts. Indeed, for a club with such untapped potential, it is hard to think of a time in more than a decade when Newcastle hasn’t been for sale. The first reports that Ashley was looking to cash in emerged in 2009 when a compensation claim from Kevin Keegan was considered to have endangered the club’s future, and he would certainly sell now for the right price. It makes the angry entreaties to get out of Newcastle ever more ironic. Ashley would: he just can’t find a buyer ready to take the chance he did 11 years ago.

TRon Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Why is it Newcastle Utd's responsibility to shore up failing businesses and their 11,000 jobs?

Stottie Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Yes, there are hard negotiations ahead over the 10,000 pension fund members, plus money owed to suppliers and concession holders. They are all going to get the bare minimum. For suppliers, it's reportedly 3p in the pound. For pension fund members, it's whatever the pension guaranteeing system will pay, not Mike Ashley. "Hard negotiations" are unlikely to come into it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
