Shearergol Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Rumoured to be “saving” Liam Gallagher’s Pretty Green now. Quality has been reducing over the last few years but it’s still better than the tat he’d put out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Chelsea are valued at £2.5 billion ? We’re a bargain at £300M. In fairness Chelsea have a fuckload of the promising youth worldwide on their books and the players alone will probably be worth not far of that at some point. Chelsea will sell them for nowt though then they'll end up at a rival after a couple of years whilst they go out and sign proven players for ridiculous fees.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I get the feeling Ashley is willing to sell but would need to take the absolute piss out of any buyer before he'd agree.

robm Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2019/03/27/curtain-pulled-back-mike-ashleys-retail-wizardry/ The curtain is being pulled back on Mike Ashley's retail wizardry Ben Marlow Executive Business Editor 27 March 2019 • 12:37pm For a man who has spent a lifetime rummaging around the bargain bin, Mike Ashley’s pursuit of Debenhams risks turning into an eye-watering extravagance. That’s if it is even serious, of course. Having tried every other trick in the book to prevent lenders taking control of the besieged chain, the burly tycoon has now said he is prepared to table a full takeover bid. There’s just one problem: it would cost him a king’s ransom. And if there is one thing we do know about the mercurial billionaire, it’s that he rarely - if ever - pays full price for something, let alone over the odds. A quick back-of-a-fag-packet calculation suggests it would cost Ashley close to £1bn to take control of Debenhams. That’s more than 30 times what the stockmarket currently thinks it's worth. Ashley has already blown around £150m building a near-30pc stake in the chain. At the proposed 5p-a-share takeover price, he would need to find another £60m to buy out shareholders. Sports Direct would also become liable for Debenhams’ debt pile, which stands at a towering £560m, and have to plug an immediate cash shortfall of about £150m. Ashley is in la-la land if he’s seriously considering such an outlay for a failing department store chain. After all, this is a retailer that has been racking up the profit warnings and is expected to fall into the red this year. Debenhams store Sure, we’ve heard many times about his grand plan to merge Debenhams with House of Fraser to create the “Harrods of the high street”, but that never sounded even remotely credible. Indeed, according to several recent reports, House of Fraser stores are already in danger of becoming a dumping ground for excess Sports Direct tat. If this is Ashley’s plan for world domination, then it is probably going to need a serious rethink. There are only so many Lonsdale tracksuits and Dunlop umbrellas that UK consumers want. Really this is all a massive distraction from the real issue: that Ashley is perilously close to being wiped out when Debenhams finalises a debt-for-equity refinancing with existing lenders. When that happens in the coming weeks, he will be able to tell Sports Direct shareholders that he made every attempt to recoup those losses. But what they shouldn’t forget is that ultimately the tycoon took a big gamble and failed spectacularly. And it’s not a punt that can be waved away as an isolated incident. Just hours after firing off its latest Debenhams missive, Ashley's offer for catalogue retailer Findel, where he is also sitting on some sizeable losses, was rejected. Meanwhile, shares were suspended in Goals Soccer Centres, where he is the largest shareholder, over an unpaid VAT bill. This may be the week that the curtain was pulled back on the tracksuit tycoon's reputation for unmatched retail prowess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
