Kanji Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The Reubens don't need any partners but I wish they really wanted to throw it all behind a football club (and it was us) because we'd have been bought and been without Bruce and all of this mess for a very long time. but it's clear as day they don't have the desire to be an outright owner of a football club.

Candi_Hills Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Amanda Stavley has lost her case against Barclays Oh dear Excellent she can concentrate on the takeover now. Full steam ahead !! :lol: What you laughing for? She's going to be like a scorned Batman villain, bitter at her lot in life and ready to avenge the world with her evil financiers.

Shearergol Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 So a geriatric narcaleptic writes a report and half the forum are queuing up on the Tyne bridge? As far as I'm aware all the legal avenues are still being pursued and no one has pulled out or downed tools yet. Its not like this place to be melodramatically reactive. this is quite the take. That "geriatric narcaleptic" as you put it, it is the most powerful man in the free world. I've always loved when you two quote each other Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bitter at her lot in life? She was brought up in a stately home, privately educated, got given a place at one of the best universities, was given money to set up her own businesses when she was still a teenager, dated a prince, has multiple homes including a £10m home in the centre of London and one in Dubai, and has Middle Eastern princes as close friends. Hardly from Meadow Well is she? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the impression Jamie would be game for it, but obviously he’s not holding the purse strings. I know the Reuben family is investing a ton of money in real estate around the world right now and what I'm not exactly sure of is if Jamie is a RB rep for the consortium or if he's doing it alone.

Thumbheed Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 There's lots of reasons why. Ok, go..... As an actual investment itself - growing the club commercially to increase the value of your investment. Cultural reasons - having a high profile club in a high profile league encourages sporting endeavour in the region Sportswashing - pretty apparent reasoning Vanity project Increasing the profile of the country itself on a worldwide stage Anchor point for investment in the city itself To name a few.

nufcjb Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Desire? It's the ability to buy the club is what counts. f***. Even I have the desire to buy Newcastle United Football Club. And we must have Steve Bruce heading the takeover deal since we need to break off for a match tomorrow. Sorry Keith. That is utter bollocks. Things can get done even if a fucking match is on. Heck, Ashley even brought out Keegan during a match! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Do they stop focussing on the takeover when games are on then? Not sure I see how the two things are linked? Is Manor Whitle Keith just making things up? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 s'pose...........the only thing that's really changed is that our potential new majority owner has been accused of murder by the most powerful country in the world with irrefutable evidence, another 3rd of the potential ownership is now skint and the last third have no interest whatsoever in owning a shell of a football club.
