merlin Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 If this is true, they need to get a move on - otherwise, they will have to think about trying to get out of the Championship and that will set everything back by at least 3 years...

Guest Bramble OG Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 “Everybody wants to buy this club and they talk the talk but can they walk the walk?” Another classic FFS Quote!! You can just imagine what a cocky arsehole this bloke is to try and deal with!! What do you expect him to say, like? "The club is shit, nobody wants to buy and I'm desperate to sell. Here it is for a fiver". The club lost out when Souness effectively did that with players he didn't want. He's talking the club up, why should he do anything different? Doh! I wasnt saying he was doing the right or wrong thing just that he sounds like a Idiot(again)!! But comon, Everyone one wants to buy us?..just like everyone wanted to manage us....We''ll end up with a souness/roeder equivalent takeover, Maybe a Butlins or a Aldi/netto attached to the side of SJP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gray Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 we are clearly doing a villa. narrowly avoid relegation this season, bought out in the summer, (decent) new manager in the summer, sizeable transfer kitty, top 5 finishes. Then from there I'm not sure what happens... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think they can force a new manager until they own out right cna they ? 41% if they buy out SJH but if its not all done by January thay cant sack Roeder.

Skirge Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Newcastle chairman Freddy Shepherd has rejected reports that a takeover bid has been tabled for the club. Reports on Friday claimed the Belgravia Group were ready to launch a bid for the St James' Park outfit. The Jersey-based investment group have been linked with a possible takeover of Newcastle for some time and reports had suggested a formal bid was imminent. However, Shepherd has moved to play down the reports insisting there has been no offer made for the club. "It's very simple. If there was a bid put in, I'm obliged to report it to the Stock Exchange and to the shareholders and I would certainly do that," Shepherd told Sky Sports News. "There has been no bid put in for Newcastle United Football Club. "Off the pitch any club, any business gets damaged when people are constantly referring to bids or one thing or another."

biggs Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 maybe if belgravia take over they will poll all newcastle fans and ask who we want as manager and go get him as a good will gesture ,the majority of the muppets with no brains will ask for hitzfeld when what we need is ian dowie.

stozo Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hopefully Belgravia will make the bid in the next few weeks. I'm really hoping this will be the end of Fat Fred and the Hall's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggs Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I wonder if a new owner would want a new managment structure in place after seeing the decline under our last two managers .IF they want to show the world they mean business i would say get a top coach in straight away and get the fans on there side , like buying a house and not decorating ,you need to put your own mark on it .

Guest toon tone rudeboy Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Wouldn't it make sense to have a manager waiting in the wings? It would be quite a move if they had Hitzfield all lined up to step in as soon as the takeover went through. They must have been monitoring NUFC and the "campaign" when it was in full swing.
