Mike Ashley (former owner) (still alive)


Recommended Posts

I wouldn't be surprised to see some positive stories regarding the takeover to appear in the next few days. Probably from the S*n or Luke Edwards.

 

Moves the debate on for a lot of fans to "I'll take Rafa leaving if we get taken over..."

 

I can't comprehend anyone wanting to buy the club but not Rafa. Fuck, Rafa was the main attraction for Staveley's group at least.

Heard there is big news due tonight

Your mate is just another twat full of shite. If they are genuinely a journalist, the need to change career.

Fair play, like. This sort of ties in.

Apologies.

What are you doing ?

:lol:

Accepting that maybe, just maybe, for once, someone had a tiny clue that something was going on.

 

Fair enough  :lol:

For the life of me, I do not understand what would make the job attractive to anyone. Who the fuck would want this job, now more than ever ?

Sacked by Christmas with your contract paid up in full.

Blame Mike Ashley then move onto the next  'destroy and exit'

What's not to love?

part of being a manager is supreme self confidence and most will think ok sure rafa couldn't get Ashley to change but I sure can etc. Also it'll probably be someone out of work for a while wanting to get back into premier league management where they only requirement for success is finishing 17th. And lets be honest it'll probably be Pardew

You can just see that the club will take ages to appoint a replacement and in the end would just give it to Neil Redfearn. Whoever takes the job is absolute bonkers and is probably taking the job with the hope that they would be paid off handsomely if any takeover was to happen.

Anyone who cares about their reputation wouldn't take it

However there are 10s of middle of the road arse lickers queuing up to take it. Sherwood Hughes monk etc etc

Does that line at the end saying 'not to consider that as a distraction for the time being' translate as the takeover is real but its taking time? Why mention 'for the time being' if its not happening then?

why? its a free shot, get relegated or sacked just point (rightly) to ashley as the reason for the failure and anything resembling success (sadly even just finishing 17th) will get you another prem job or two when you do leave.

Why would we not believe BZG’s statements?

 

That’s where I’m at with this. Common sense would say it’s a trick, a ruse etc. Good ol’ Mike Ashley at it again.

 

Except BZG are not washed up has-beens like Amanda Staveley or Peter Kenyon. They are many times bigger than Sports Direct.

 

They will have done their homework. Including how MA has been in the past with potential buyers.

 

They had meetings and they came to an agreement. They went public with it because someone leaked the story.

 

So why that was leaked is now more interesting.. what was the agenda behind it, if we can assume it was KBA that did it.. why though?

Decent salary. You don’t have to try. Any takeover happens (lol) you’ll get a big pay off. Just need to do as Mike says and you’ll be golden. No feeling for Newcastle, the club or the city necessary.

The FA need to step in and implement certain laws that can serve to protect its clubs from owners like Mike Ashley, or those that are making just as big a mess at other clubs further down the leagues. Things can't continue the way they are otherwise it's simply going to drive fans away from football.

 

11 years of putting up with lies, embarrassment, Ashley losing 2 tribunals against employees, asset-stripping and everything else he's done to us should show the FA that he's not a competent owner.

 

The FA are going to do absolutely fuck all man look at clubs with owners like Blsckpool,Coventry,Bolton,Luton,Gateshead,Leyton Orient,Portsmouth theres a long list the FA dont give a shit man

 

Its fucking terrible with Ashley and personally I think the cunt should be hung from the rafters of the Tyne bridge but it's nowhere near as bad as them teams I've mentioned.........Yet

That’s basically the content of the two statements they’ve released :lol:

 

And has anything official came out to dispute those statements?
