    ffs I just want to see the people of Newcastle win something. Football is about money and success is bought.

    Don't know if I'd like us to turn into a City. It would be nice to win lots of things, but I don't think you'd have the sense of actually earning it and you'll always be branded as having bought the cup/league.

    Look at PSG, they have Qatar owners but they have a business plan which doesn't include splashing millions on players every transfer window. Don't believe this rumour though.

    If we had mega-rich owners who splashed out loads every window to buy the best players in the world, I just wouldn't feel as if we had earned it properly. No need to get your knickers in a twist.

    You know what? In all honesty, I'm pretty content with spending an adequate amount and trying to compete for a European spot at the moment. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to win trophies, but if I was concerned about that I would have supported another team <ok

    Oh, and if you could try and refrain from the petty insults in our debate that would be great <ok>

    Well said. I know Fat Mike is a pain, but you could end up with him selling to idiots like the Venky's. Better to be safe than sorry. I'd say spending 20 million gets you a top 5 place, you're a couple of players away from having a very good side.

    All I want is an owner that:

    - Has an eye for a bargain (like Ashley)
    - Respects the fans and the clubs history
    - Holds onto our best players

    We are one of the few clubs that could break into the top 4 without huge investment because of the size of our fanbase.

    Agree with your three points.

    It would still require significant investment tho to break the Top 4 <ok>

    You're right. Although I'm not sure Ashley has won fans over as simply placated us with relative success. The bitterness and mistrust is still very much there, but at then end of the day, we support our club because we like to see it do well, not to see a local owner or a large expenditure. If/when we take a dip, grumbles about Ashley become more audible but its just as you'd expect really...Had Bruce all of a sudden pulled a run of 6 wins out of the bag, all the BiBs would've been the louder bunch, similar situation here!

    All you Ashley lover forget we were doing better before he arrived. That's ot no our fans have accepted mediocrity it will stay that way. 7th is the height of even your ambitions. lick hoop iof you want but not me I refuse.

    Speak for yourself. I'd happily have the likes of Cockneys, Gloryhunters or Racist Scousers ranting we "bought the title"

    You were heading towards bankruptcy, if thats what you consider better than what you have now, you're clearly a wum.
