54 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Out of all the groups we've seen over the last few years, i'd probably be most excited with them running things, not that I think it will happen, because wee Mike Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 The similarities between the first 12 months of Ashley and the first 12 months of Donald are uncanny. Lots of smoke and mirrors but them doing the odds bits to make us buy into it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staggering how the matchday income and commercial income is lower (and has always been lower in every year of MAs ownership) than the last year of Freddie Sheps ownership - and yet we are still ranked 8th in terms of turnover Both commercial and revenue SHOULD have at least been doubled by now (compared to FS last season) or even increased by 150% - the lack of growth is utterly disgraceful Had both Matchday and Commerical revenue increased we'd be comfortably a top 7 club with even the chance of yo-yoing up and down within the top 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 20mil for gayle come off it,we would snap a hand off for half that He's as close as you can get to a guarantee of 20+ goals in the championship. Prolific strikers increase your chances of promotion dramatically. The value of promotion is in excess of £100m. If you're a nearly team, signing Gayle might near enough guarantee you top 2 and automatic. In which case, it'd be a bargain, even at £20m imho.

Gallowgate End Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Apparently head guy of that Mexican group has confirmed they want Newcastle United.
