Saw this cunt’s name trending on Twitter. People talking about him buying Chelsea. 

No fucking chance. Abramovich is owed around £1.5bn from any sale isn’t he? Making the total price over £2bn? Ashley would have to tighten his belt a little to be able to afford that….which simply isn’t happening.

Sports direct / Flannels or whatever his company is called now could raise the finance for that deal if he was desperate for another Prem club.

 

Not going to happen though, even if it is the distressed sale scenario he so loves

The former Newcastle United owner launched libel proceedings against Times Newspapers following front page coverage of its investigation into the activities of mobile telephone company Sport Mobile.

The High Court in London was told on Wednesday that the publisher of The Times had issued an apology and retraction over a series of articles in print and online on 17 and 18 July 2020.

 

Speker added: “Following libel proceedings brought by Mr Ashley, the court found that the articles were defamatory of him.

“The court found that in the articles it was alleged that there are grounds to suspect that Sport Mobile helped Mr Ashley to avoid the disclosure in High Court proceedings of potentially relevant text messages and phone records, which Mr Ashley had told the court he could not produce whilst knowing Sport Mobile could in fact have obtained them.”

Speker told the hearing, before Judge Jaron Lewis, that the publisher “confirmed it did not intend to make these claims”, adding: “It made a formal offer of amends that was accepted by Mr Ashley.

“It has published an apology and retraction and it has agreed to pay substantial damages to Mr Ashley as well as his legal costs.”

He added that the publisher “through its apology published in the print edition of The Times and online, has accepted that any allegations of wrongdoing by Mr Ashley in his litigation with Jeffrey Blue are untrue”.

Lol at Charnley clinging to Mike Ashley's coat-tails like the fucking no-mark he is. 


Big move for him. Can do the admin at Pride Park and cover a few shifts at Shirebrook when staff are carted away in an ambulance.

With the state they are in it will take a load of investment and a fair bit of time to get them to the Premier League riches.

That doesn't seem like him so I don't understand what his purpose or end goal is here. It isn't for the good of humanity or the people of Derby, obviously.

He wants them on the cheap, he's offered 15p in the pound for existing creditors and because in his opinion the administration has failed he doesn't want to pay their £2 million fee

Pissing off the administrators is a sure way of getting them to pick him as their next preferred bidder.

TBF the administratiors were put in place and according to Derby fans controlled by Mel Morris who wants his personal money back by selling or leasing the stadium
