No way this guilt should fall on us, its like when Talksport asked if Newcastle should buy a player or let Ashley use the cash to save jobs on the high street

Sure I saw someone post on here that when we signed Shearer, the North-East edition of The Sun/Mirror were bigging it up, the rest of the country editions were up in arms about how that money could be spent on hospitals, etc.

:lol: There's absolutely a fundamental misunderstanding of what a private company is among the wider British public

"Accountants involved in auditing Mr Ashley’s retail businesses were told in recent weeks that Newcastle was “disappearing from the book”, according to a person with knowledge of the matter, in another sign that the British billionaire is finally moving to offload it."

 

What does this mean?

He's selling the club so it won't be considered one of his assets anymore.

As far as I'm concerned, if we are going to get taken over, would rather it be Arab buyers over anyone else. British buyers don't have the money, American buyers are looking to make money not invest it, and Chinese buyers are no better than Saudis if we are talking human rights. At least with MBS you know he won't mess about, we'll be going hell for leather to win trophies. Rather us than the Saudis go somewhere else like Leeds.

Every year I go to a conference in LA at end of January something incredibly mad happens that week.

 

Few years back we signed like 10 French lads like MYM and Sissoko. Last year we beat City. This week maybe we get sold?
