Firstly, why on earth would NUFC want John Arnie Riise after splashing £6m (?) on the bull ???

 

Secondly, any would-be purchsers of NUFC would have to have a cheque for nearer £300m now after Ashley, I say Ashley, has bought the club and then spent another wedge paying off most (possibly all now) of the debt !!

 

Oh, and Ashley turning up at our games in a toon top is not the action of a man in this for a quick buck imo.
