Mike Ashley (former owner) (still alive)


Recommended Posts

Seen Norman Riley from True Faith has done a BBC interview saying "A lot of Saudi government policy, I find abhorrent, so if the deal goes through I will have to re-assess my relationship with the club, absolutely no doubt about it."

 

I really cannot get the mindset where you'll support the club with Ashley in charge for so long, and then re-assess with new owners. If reprehensible owners were an issue surely Ashley would have turned you away already?

 

People like the above will continue to go to the games, and get their name in fanzines etc, as it's not about morals for him, it's about selfishness.

 

You do understand that not all bad things are the same? It's why murderers go to prison for longer than shoplifters.

Tbf iirc he’s stopped going to home games and he’s only saying what quite a few people on here have already said

As much as I expect this to affect some people, this is nothing but virtue signalling from TF who are desperate to be seen as the real voice of supporters. Whatever happened to support the team, not the regime, does that suddenly change when your agenda does?

So a helicopter with no links to anyone involved has headed in the general direction of Newcastle but may be going elsewhere?

 

I'm in.

 

Fwiw Grim Ryder literally just tweeted that Danny Rose has just arrived at St James' to complete his deal, could well be linked?

Again, Norman has voiced his displeasure about Ashley and as far as i remember he hasn’t been to games and if he has he only goes away. You have to separate the writer and the fanzine. I’m sure not everyone at TF hold the same views. Michael Martin for example has completely walked away I think

The only thing sadder than people getting excited about a non-existent takeover

Is people getting on their moral high-horse (rightly or wrongly) about a non-existent takeover

 

Everyone knows the score and if people feel that strongly about it that's fine but ffs wait until something happens first. At this point you may as well throw Putin and Xi in there while they're at it. Even on the slim chance anything is still going on nobody but about a dozen people in the world know the planned structure.

Talented lad, not many footballers know how to drive a helicopter.

She’s just someone who sends off random tweets relating to Saudi Arabia.

As said in the comments, she’s been asked for proof of where it’s been reported that they have denied being interested in NUFC, and given none.

It's like a "The Good Place" plot :lol: We're getting taken over! But what's this, it's by a horrible nation state? Oh the internal agony! Wait, what's that? Double punked, there never was any takeover [throng of demons chortles]

Plot twist, Ashley is the Architect.
