I suspect no takeover will happen until we are safe in the Premier League. If it ever happens...

It won't. Not while Ashley is alive.

 

Relegation and a decent spell in the championship is our only hope of getting rid of Ashley, when the £100 million plus isn’t coming in every season he’ll sell and won’t get the kind of money for the club he can get now. Maybe it’s wishful thinking on my part but I don’t see any other way.

This takeover is our only hope. Another season of Ashley & Bruce, then we’ll drop like Sunderland.

 

You're right. The perpetual decline is underway. The law of diminishing returns is in place re tickets, fakeover lies, hope etc. All the managers have control over is performances and these performances are far closer to relegation places than almighty 12th and that will surely balance itself out and likewise the clubs value. That price isn't going to get any higher but he's sadistic enough to take a hit on that to f**k the club up a while longer.

A relegation - who would even care about coming back to the PL under this owner again?! Only one person benefits - him. So attendances would plummet in that event - even with freebies.

The good news is it seems like it would take doing a sunderland or at least staying in the championship with a half empty stadium to get rid of him and for the penny to finally drop that the end product from this owner is misery and it must be stopped.

I'd snap someones hands off for a couple seasons in the championship to get rid of this c**t.

I love it when fans say "That'd be the last straw for me."

 

Because 2 relegations, the defacement, neglect and renaming of the stadium, the besmirchment of club legends, 13 years of lies,  6 fakeovers, 2 fingers to the fans and a Pardew in a fucking pear tree wasn't enough.

No news is good news in this instance, or rather any news is bad news. Until it happens of course, again we’ll hear the first of it out of the blue and if it doesn’t happen, well, we simply won’t hear nothing because there wouldn’t be anything. Until we hear the news SOLD It’s best to ignore everything or rather forget about it all.

 

My own opinion is that whoever is at the stage they are right now which I’m confident is where it’s at and very much real, are closer than anyone else has been to buying the club and whoever they are, they have the money, want to buy the club and now it’s all down to one person only who can only make this happen by saying yes. Then it’s done.

 

Where they are at, however, means nowt, it’s where is 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐥𝐞𝐲 at? He’s at the Casino, pissed, he’s down, but not out, does he play on or go home?

When the takeover doesn't happen and we stay in the league by the skin of our teeth with a few more 0 0 draws what will the season ticket numbers be like next season?

Similar to this season.  If they renewed this season, I don't see why they won't do it again.

 

Another season of mediocrity whilst chanting about how they're the loyalest supporters the world has ever seen after another 3% possession shit show at 2 nowt down.

Who that pays now is going to have that as their final straw. Aside from those that die, get ill, move or genuinely can't afford it I think the base is the base as of now.

 

My mate jacked it in the day he discovered the person sitting next to him was paying about half as much for their ticket.

Aye, that's fair enough n all.

 

I mean in terms of product you're getting I think those that pay to go now would pay to go any time bar extenuating circumstance.
