Yes because the football world is teaming with those isn't it? When you find them let me know until then I'll let you fester in your delusional worldSomeone with a track record of ambition and major investment would be nice?

You mean like Coventry?Ha ha - fair enough. Didn't pick up on the 2nd point.
To be fair, clubs normally are happy to stay within a 30 mins drive of the ground they're playing (taking into account traffic/time of travel etc). That opens up a wider area than Walsall itself. Thankfully.
he's after attentionHe also tweeted yesterday that 'I don’t talk business on twitter' so not likely to be related to anything to do with a potential takeover or the stadium situation.
Pretty sure the Saudis and Abu Dhabi already own English clubsSomeone with a track record of ambition and major investment would be nice?

Yeah somebody who is going to throw shit loads in and never want it back. Where are they?
or just any ambition at allSomeone with a track record of ambition and major investment would be nice?
Yes, unfortunately it’s unheard of in the modern game.
Shouldn’t have got to the point really where ccfc felt they may have to move, duggins was moving heaven and earth to ensure we could play
Exactly. The goon army moaned every year because he wasnt spunking away £200 million every seasonAbsolutely nothing wrong with him in my opinion. Newcastle fans were the reason he is made out to be a bad owner despite them being financially stable and almost exclusively in the Premier league
Would be interested to know what would cost 13 million to repair, care to hazard a guess? Thats a lot of investment.
Ben WilsonTo be fair to you you’ve been quite accurate with your predictions to date, ignore the gibbons on here who try to knock you.
I’m going to now check you syntax and work out who you are
And that is the issue with football fans and probably why I asked for actual reasons other than "Ask Newcastle Fans".

It is a bit whether you prefer dog shit or cat shit on your toast in the morningI'm not keen on Ashley either in truth, a pretty shabby man in many ways, but I guess I'd prefer him to SISU (assuming he's not out to bleed the club dry). Either way, I guess the administrator won't be needing my tenner now.
Where is this repair work needed, if it’s structural surely a safety certificate can’t be issued?

Think the Geordies weren't satisfied being in the Prem, they wanted him to spend billions to get them the title.What is actually that bad about him?
Was that what you asked for?
In any case, as mad as the Geordies may be, I don’t think anyone should be ignoring their concerns completely. Financial stability 15 years from now with a couple of relegations to League One in between might be OK, but I’m not sure it’s worth tracking his helicopter over.
Heard he's having a few pints with Joy in a London boozer.That's just a coincidence. Nowhere to land near the CBS. Ashley's cavalcade currently hurtling up the A444.
Same model that SISU had but to be fair toReality of Ashley is he has put money into Newcastle. Yes they did bit of a yo-yo between Championship and Prem, but he left the club in the hands of some of the wealthiest people in the world.
If Ashley got the stadium and then the club, I suspect his end game would be similar. Get CBS and CCFC married and get to the Prem and try and establish. Once that happens, sell off to the highest bidder.

MA he’s less likely to switch tap off as quick as SISU did.
What would SISU take?
£40m (£20k players the rest goodwill / Ryton etc)
What’s the Arena going to cost? £40m with some other liabilities added?
Is the whole CCFC plus Arena package worth £100m? Not sure it us.
As an aside () Derby stadium sold for £18m plus £3-4m to admin. Similar ground to CBS but without conference facilities. Might value CBS at £35m but it’s those repair conditions.
I don’t think this admin will last for over 6 months like Derby’s so costs should be considerably lowerSame model that SISU had but to be fair to

What is actually that bad about him?
Let’s phrase it differently and see if you still think the same:Think the council should be chipping in for some of those repairs
Yes, but apart from all that??Where do we start:
- Hired his mates for top jobs at the club
- Club was subject of a 4-year HMRC investigation
- Lied about the money managers had available to spend
- Lied to fans: “The club admitted to the tribunal that it repeatedly and intentionally misled the press, public and the fans of Newcastle United.”
- Completely neglected SJP
- Raised ticket prices by 20%
- Doubled club debt
- Newcastle were the 13th most valuable club in football when he took over, ahead of Spurs and Dortmund.
