You'd be seeing the same joy, maybe more, if we were being bought by, say, the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund or a consortium of multibillionaire Geordies. Unfortunately neither of those exists. You'd be seeing 70% if Ashley had just died and left the club to the Cats & Dogs Home. Pretty sure it does unless @Kaizero has done a runner with the cash Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Colin Bell Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Good luck & enjoy the ride. Just like us, you'll find that you've gone from being everyone's favourite 2nd club to hated by a lot of fans & the media. It'll be the usual suspects like Man United and Liverpool making the most noise but ignore them. All the best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Don't think we were anyone's favourite 2nd team, like. Not if they'd watched more than 10 minutes of one of our games anyway Not sure we were even our favourite team tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorcoxon Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) Been an avid supporter & reader of this forum for many a year. Today has been unreal and must rank as one of the most significant days in NUFCs modern history. The relief of seeing the end of Ashley and the comedy horror show he provided is overwhelming. Being bought by a team who seem determined, understanding, believing and down right rich is just a cherry on the cake. Enjoy the good times - this is going to be wild!

Kaizero Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I watched an episode of Lie to Me once, and therefore I am naturally a body languge expert; in Staveley's interview when asked if Bruce will be in charge at Spurs, she immediately starts shaking her, thus head implying her true thoughts, even though her answer was saying she doesn't know Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Everyone is hanging from the ceiling just now but as a PR exercise to get Keegan and Shearer to sign on as ambassadors as Bruce leaves would be amazing.

The hatred from other fans is a good sign that they are rattled, certainly prefer that than the 15 odd years of being ignored because we weren’t a threat.

I'd like to think if all clubs were ran on size and potential, we'd be up there competing with the best anyway. We saw it in the 90s when Keegan was here. It's one of the reasons why PIF invested here anyway. Just going to ignore the jealous noises from "big 6" clubs, not worth wasting time on other people's issues.
