Colocho Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 He wouldnt replace Northern Rock because a lot of money is generated with the shirt sponsor. However, we could well see his stick Sports Direct on there somewhere, you're allowed 2 sponsors arnt you? The £4m or so (a year) we get from Northern Rock could easily be covered by the profits from player sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Btw how could he have charged the club interest if we've been making a loss, losses which he's been covering? I must be missing something here, apologies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 what quayside said (again) people seem to want to have their cake and eat it imo, yeah thanks for keeping the club afloat mike and cheers for those interest free loans, but don't fucking do anything that doesn't bring revenue into the club you massive arsehole Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must be missing something here, apologies. He could have charged the club interest and not drawn it until there was cash available to pay it. The Carroll money comes to mind as an obvious opportunity to recover a back payment of interest. But he hasn't done that and all loans are designated as non interest bearing.

I must be missing something here, apologies. because a company doesn't make a profit doesn't mean their creditors aren't due the money, had he wanted to he could have treated nufc as an entirely separate entity and done what he wanted to recoup the monetary value of his loans to the detriment of the club obviously this would have ended up ruining us and reducing the resale value of the club, so since he bought it he's been treading this fine line that's how i read it anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I can just imagine the advertising brains behind some of the biggest brands in the UK or even the world being unsure as to how they could use the space until kind Mr Ashley shows them.

SEMTEX Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Want to add value to your advertising space? Simply showcase the worlds shittest sports brand and wait for the offers to roll in.

Unfortunately I'm not so sure they will. It strikes me as one of those things that will never go back to how it was. I think it would be an instant sweetner with the fans to rid all SD signs and have it back the way it was, huge PR points await the next owner. If some rich oil baron comes in and wants to put his company on there and charge himself £100m a year like Citeh then fine, i'll live with it.

Dave Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 The irony's not lost on me btw that we could very easily end up with an even more detestable set of tossers in charge next. That's why things like this piss me off so much, just the little touches that they either don't seem to realise won't go down well - or even worse know full well will be badly received and do them anyway. From where we have been since relegation until present, it should be a piece of piss to keep the fans on side. Just keep their heads down, keep things steady and wait for their supposedly brilliant plans to bear fruit. Instead, there's always something stewing. They're so fucking shit at the balancing act it's untrue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, 'careful what you wish for' and 'better the devil you know' spring to mind when i think back to FFS, and it could easily happen again. Remember we were all scared of hedge funds and asset stripping buyouts and we got excited when a self-made billionaire buys us, just our luck how it turned out. What is certain, every step the club makes in the right direction, especially financially, is one step closer to a buyout, some real success (like getting back in to Europa or winning a league cup) would sign off Ashley's term here imo, the offers would come flooding in.
