Guest chopey Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Nothing like the feeling of a Derby with two equally matched teams though, the playoff games in 1990 were unbelievable I didn't sleep for days with worry and excitement, David Davies the former FA chairman was once asked "what would be the biggest game in England" and he said an FA cup final between Newcastle and Sunderland, he predicted that the north east would just shut for the day.

Dr Jinx Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I can totally see Mike Ashley swooping in at their lowest ebb. What would the club be worth considering how fucked they are? A tenner and take on the debt? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 He's made a killing off Newcastle even though he paid over the odds, he'll have a bonk on for buying a big club with potential for buttons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sima Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 One of them is laughing at the logic and strategy of us signing Koulibaly 'Why sign a 29 year-old (he's 28) when he could be 30 by the time the football starts again' Probably because he's one of the best defenders in the world? 'Flanagan for me, marra' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 As much as they as a football club get on my nerves at times I dont want them to go bust. After all they are a local football team that has strong links to its community. We've had it awful under Ashley with a total disconnect from our community and city. Can you image what it would do to the city of Sunderland if they folded? Yes, yes I can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck them fuck the city of Sunderland, you could flatten the whole lot of it and let it become some barren wasteland for all I care. They have nothing but utter contempt for everything Newcastle related not just things that are football related.

Stifler Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I’m sure that Dell consortium loaned them £10m which is tied to the academy and stadium. There is no way Donald is going to be able to pay that back, he’s going end up defaulting on it. The big question then is if they would swoop in and buy the club as well, or just sell the stadium and academy. There will be even bigger questions about who would have the money to buy the academy and stadium off them. If they don’t find a buyer for the club then not only is the club done, but the city as well. Having a stadium with no football team would just create another Reynolds arena like fiasco, where theirs no reason to have it. Let’s be honest a couple of concerts in the summer isn’t enough to keep it going, and we are at least a year away from that being possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty much what they all hope for. Problem is, they don't want it, especially now with everything going on. A ground with social distancing in place makes no money. The academy was worth money for land, but development will be down for some time to come. If thry do anything it'll be extend the agreement, which doesn't help them at all.

geordiedean Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 The Americans who loaned them money have absolutely no interest in the club they loaned them the money with an assurity against the real estate. If they had any inclination of taking the club they would have just bought the Don out there and then. The club is still making huge losses and will continue to do so they are now going to have to cut their cloth even more to survive in league 1. They will be in administration by xmas and could be in league 2 within 12 months Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
