You can sod right off with Morecambe like. Hull, I'm with you. 

 

Happy for him to buy one of the media darlings though. Love to see him buy spurs. I know it won't happen but I would think it was great if he bought man u. Bet what a prick he is would soon be showcased to the world then. 

 

Where does he live? Barnet isn't it? Buy them, support your local club.

What does he want out of them?

 

Surely not advertising.

 

Maybe buying a distressed brand to ‘streamline’ then sell on? 

 

Company in crisis available on the cheap  

Ability to take advantage and drag them into his retail empire  

Ability to flip a profit

Cheap thing to buy, make more stable than they currently are then god knows. Would hate it if he bought them mind, grown a soft spot for them due to living there for the past 2 and a half years for uni. Surely there's someone else out there? :lol: Bloke needs keeping away from football, the utter fucking parasite.

If that's an Edwards story there's a good chance it could be true, just get the Ashley, Charners and Bruce dream team back together and he can leave Newcastle and write about them.

Rooney would tear the remaining bum hair from his head.

 

I really don't want that baggie jeaned pound shop salesman to inflict his brand of utter misery on any other set of fans, though.

I reckon Ashley and Rooney would get on like a house on fire

I was rooting them to escape but hope they go out of existence if he buys them.

I wished that same fate on us many a time instead of perpetual Ashley.

 

Still don't see it. He'd have to squeeze a club like that so much harder than he ever did us to get his money and there just isn't enough left to squeeze - even in normal circumstances - and being able to maintain their status/Ashley's current funding.

Sports Directs Shirebrook base is a bit up the M1 so makes sense for Ashley.

 

On the other hand, its a lot easier for an angry mob to descend on the place.

Imagine the scenes if SD HQ had been Shiremoore instead of Shirebrook. Would have been settlements there.

He just sold a club he did nothing with for a healthy £70m profit. He absolutely thinks he can install the same cast of clowns and pull a similar trick with Derby.

He lucked out with us, a big stadium, a massive fan base, our title challenges under Keegan still in peoples memory and importantly in the memories of media companies and journalists so despite being shit people spoke about us which generates interest.

 

wont get that at Derby if he thinks he’s going to get them to the PL and flip them.
