Kitman 2204 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 That article HF posted is the biggest load of ignorant waffle I've read in a long time. Jesus wept indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 I fixed the article for them... http://www.sport.co.uk/features/Football/8..._direction.aspx When you hear the words Mike Ashley and Newcastle in the same sentence you think "cunt" Financial saviour Firstly, in simple terms, he's more than doubled the debt of the club and taken it from a state of being entirely financed by banks willing to loan money to a solvent club to a state of technical insolvency whereby only private investment can keep us afloat. Foresight Since he got Newcastle relegated, he's cost the club a rumoured £500,000 per week. In a desparate attempt to offset those kinds of losses he failed to find anyone interested in putting their name on the stadium. Future Planning Far from changing the perception of Newcastle; where the likes of Luque, Boumsong, and Emre be allowed to come for bumper paydays he's bought top four rejects like Alan Smith who would not be paid as though they were still amongst Europe’s elite and given ridiculous wages to other similar players like Geremi, Barton and Collocini without relegation clauses. This campaign; he has signed Williamson, Routledge, Best and Simpson. All these players were bought at a rock bottom price and accordingly will not cut it in the Premier league. This would be sensible business foresight if it were a platform on which to build, however this is the blueprint which will not change once promotion is achieved Fresh Approach He's shown a complete lack of judgement, in managers. Ashley has stuck by Chris Hughton and Joe Kinnear who will tow the line and shown the door to a proven manager like Keegan who knows what it takes to succeed. In 3 years he's gone through 5 managers. These decisions have been rewarded with relegation and a dogfight on the cards next year Final word Obviously cracks can be papered over with good results on the pitch but no-one should be fooled by promotion from the second division with some of the most pedestrian football you could imagine. It would be nice to see everyone pulling in the same direction for once, all wanting the best for the club. Unfortunately Ashley has Llambias in the press at every opportunity denegrating the 40000+ fans that have continued to show unstinting support to the team.

trophyshy 7073 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I'm sick of hearing all this fucking WHINING about how much money Mike is having to put into the club to stop it going under Mike, you BOUGHT and OWN the club you odious TURD. It's like me whining to anyone I happen to give a lift to about how much the last MOT cost me, or how expensive petrol is, or - perhaps the most fitting analogy, how extremely expensive it was to repair the car after I wantonly crashed it into a fucking tree while on the piss with my mates. Fucking wankers. Stop trying to shmooze us you pricks, let your work do the talking, you'll never win us with words after all the deceit. Even if it was a popularity contest, which it's not Mike you vain piece of shit, the only hope you have of redemption is to get us back where we belong.

Apparently we should be grateful for him propping up his own investment, after he'd destroyed its value with his incompetence. Not really, he's no alternative.
