Darth Crooks Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 There’s no second guessing him with a sale tbh just the knowledge that whilst he’s here he’ll never do the right thing in the long term. His bullshit jumble sale methods always win out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinner99 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Only hitting his business and image (!) is going to work. If someone can arrange to rent a balloon (Trump style as a fat pig) or giant poster next to the Tyne bridge with maybe him as a fat snake crushing the life out of the club I would definitely contribute.Would need to have him in a sports direct shirt of some sort to make the association.

Wilson Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 That would make a nice advert for Sports Direct. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I really like the snake crushing the club idea, not good enough to draw it though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Nah I guarantee we will get sold very quickly if we stayed in Championship more than one season. It's simple. He wants to gamble for immediate promotion. That single year would already incur 50m+ loss assuming the team didn't sell any players (we don't have any sellable assets anyway). Once we failed, unless we did a quick fire sale we would incur much larger loss in the coming year. These two year alone could cost him something like 150m imo. However if we did sell everything to fund the loss we will no longer be able to sell for decent money. He won't swallow it. If the fat cunt continue to gamble, fine, that's how Sunderland got sold for basically nothing. The loss accumulated these few years could easily exceed his total investment amount put into the club so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Yeah, I think the next relegation will be the one that kills Ashley. Got to remember most championship clubs are even outspending us the last 2 seasons which is an absolute farce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I don't get how ashley can be considered a good business man when his running of the business actual stops it making more revenue when football is swimming in cash from sponsors.

Dokko Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hope the next owner of the club sues sports direct for all the free advertising. £15m a year for every year he's here seems fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickthemagpie Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Just a thought but I don’t think he has intentions to sell,he’ll be here for 10-20 years of we don’t get rid of him. Also given the asset stripping ( selling off land etc) and potential long term deals he has us tied for n with we might not get our club back properly for 30 years That's the thing though, even if he does sell protests would need to carry on (obviously not affecting new owners in any way) untill all ties are severed and preferably the asset stripping being reversed. We don't want a Rangers situation here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not effectively stolen the income for another company. That alone is hundreds of millions the club has been deprived of. God only knows how else he's asset stripping us.
