    He knows how to make money, no doubt about that. Doesn't help us though.

    I remember what everyone was expecting when a billionnaire owner first took charge years back, everyone expected NUFC to be joining the likes of Chelsea and City. Tightest ****ing billionnaire on the planet. Hope he sells up then loses every penny.

    Its impressive business from Ashley, but he doesn't spend any personal wealth on us.

    He doesn't seem to want the club he owns actually achieving anything or even competing with the better sides in this league.
    That sets him apart from other mega-wealthy owners.
    He'll drop down dead one day and somebody will pocket the lot, by blowing it on whatever he didn't treat himself to.

    He needs to get his hands in his pockets and sort it out over the summer

    He's rich because he knows how to sell to the like of us. He'd be skint without us consumers.

    He should spend some on Will Hughes of Derby. Cracking player, produced an absolute stonker of a finish in the play off semi. nowt wrong with some of the English talent available. Worth the premium in some cases (if there is indeed one)
