Wolfcastle Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) Hard to say not knowing the extent to which Ashley has bobby-trapped things (sold the land off around the ground, diverted club shop funds to S**** D**** revenues has barely grown since he came etc.) I'm not after much personally though so am placated. Think some people might not be. The Keegan way would be a blue-print ideally. Surge of fans > income > sign some decent players > winning streak > even more surge of fans and so on but different times now, so?

Just out of interest does the club have the opportunity to raise funds via ffp? Everton are doing this via a new stadium, naming rights etc etc. How will Newcastle invest per say Since FFP runs over multiple years & since Mike Ashley was so tightfisted, the club is actually in the position where they can spend quite heavily without causing problems. Plus, there's always the option of random Saudi clubs being forced to coming in to buy our surplus trash for unexpectedly large sums. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Espio Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Roughly we can spend about 190m and still be within FFP (According to the interwebs) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Be interesting to find out if the consortium signed some kind of NDA or whether we'll hear how much Ashley was siphoning out of the club and how. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HTT II Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I actually tried to get out of taking my boy to training by feigning a funny turn and wor lass was like fuck off, you just want to be glued to this takeover stuff, get your son to training, I was in a right sulk, then she screen shotted the PL confirmation statement to me while I was there and I showed the parents and we all did a jig, a dance and a big cheer, it was surreal. One of the boys’ granddad was there and he had tears in his eyes, he’s been going for decades but jacked it in. And training tonight was fucking lively as fuck. Parents, coaches, kids, just buzzing. We are all NUFC at the end of the day and this has been a long time coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackandWhite Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I’m still on disbelief. It feels like I am in a football-driven dream, and I’ll wake up in a second and be like: “aww, it was just a dream”. I checked Skysports news at 5:30 before I left for home, there it was confirmed. I was the only one left in the office, and I took full opportunity to have a song and dance. I didn’t leave until six out of sheer delight and shock that it’s actually happened.

Fuckin hell they are a blast from the past! Glad someone remembers them! Must be 15 years since I made them! The passion that made me spend hours slaving away to make them was sucked away by Ashley to the point I could no longer watch any football but tonight it is being reignited and it feels fucking amazing!
