I think liquidation would be over dramatic. Regardless we were an attractive option at the time due to our recent history. SJH admitted though he'd hawked us all round europe looking for a buyer. He said once Roman came in at Chelsea that was the end for the likes of him and Jack Walker. He said the money to keep Newcastle at the top end of the league was already sending the club deep into debt and the banks were getting twitchy. Shepherd conceded this even though he didn't want to sell initially. Obviously they got out with a massive pay off at a £1 a share. Bullet dodged as far as they were concerned and Newcastle had been a good business venture for them.

Whatever we say about Ashley he has been rich enough to steer us away from any thought of those kinds of troubles via his "gift" loan. Unfortunately that gift was actually a trojan horse and one of the network of business decisions relating to the club which sees his tentacles seep so deep into the club its difficult to unravel. All absolutely deliberate. Standard aggressive business practices which those who work in the grey areas like to utilise. These decisions he makes are calculated and slip through while he receives a barrage about his other bizarre behaviours. They are all long term decisions which people never complain about until its too late (not that it would stop him anyway). From the club shop to the loan and many other matters, removing Ashley from our club is going to prove far from simple.

I believe it is simple enough. Let the money coming from supporters dry. That way he will know that the game is up. We both know the fat twat doesn't care about NUFC, he cares only for money, so if the supporters were to vote with their legs he will be forced to sell.

I agree but you get a split down the middle on this issue every time. There are those who say he won't stop them supporting the club.

I know as a business we are discussing at the moment about our renewal. I think the view is generally that after bad customer service by the club over the last two years, we'd be better served having a company golf day. It would cost significantly less too. Yet myself and the other director are knowingly giving a little nod to each other as die hard Newcastle fans as if to say "we really gonna do this after 20 odd years having the company tickets"

Its difficult but as you say a necessary evil.

My company has decided to buy seasonal hospitality tickets and give them to companies who don’t give us any work. That will teach them. The good clients get the Man Utd tickets.

Thanks for stopping by, I've pointed out a couple of your statements which are very much worth noting....thank you for pointing these out to us. Despite what we all think of him you can't argue with these facts.

Rumours out there say the Saudi's offered him 400m Euros ( £361 m ) but he just kept moving the goalposts , as he always does. He has never intended to ell as as our profits are going direct to him to keep his retail businesses afloat. I see he is late again with his accounts and SD shares in downturn/

You are right of course.He is only interested in his retail empire which in time will unravel - in the meantime read Oliver Holts blistering attack on Ashley and all he stands for. Read it and weep.

Think we actually got 7p for every £1 spent with the other 93p going to him. And he won yet another legal case against us yesterday.

He's a cancer mate. A fat, sweaty cancer. I can see a lot of folk wanting to wish bad things on him or take a swing.
He should take a leaf out of the Arabic Royalty book and call in popeye as a close protection bodyguard.
Like Batfink, his forearms are like a shield of steel.
