Atlanta chairman has said he will only get out of bed to discuss an offer which has a 3 at the beginning. Mike has said our offer does but it only has one of them and There is no zero next to it either. No way are we paying 30million for a player.
Agreed. It was hours from happening allegedly. Yet we hadn't made a bid While everyone else was thinking on Monday "its 2 weeks to Xmas", Mike was sat thinking "its 7-8 weeks until the window closes and these daft geordies find out I've done them again"
We've signed a partnership deal with Atlanta United. Newcastle Upon Tyne just happens to be twinned with...you guessed it. - Atlanta.
Reports out today saying that we have now agreed personal terms with Almarion? Not sure after yesterdays 100k demands fiasco but if true that would intimate to me that a take over may well be on. If we've even got close to the wage demands there's no way Ashley will stick about to pay those and I doubt he'd be going out on a limb that the deal will go through, he'd need near certainty to agree to those kind of terms. Obviously it could all be BS but if he's withdrawing large sums of money from the club and we are agreeing to 100k p/w demands I'd like to think (praying to any and every god) that this might actually happen...
Everyone stay calm. Of course he's asked for £100k a week - who wouldn't - but that could be dollars and will be the headline figure including appearances, image rights and win bonuses, us finishing top 10 etc.
