Mike Ashleys Newcastle Revolution
Howmanheyman replied to Christmas Tree 's topic in Newcastle Forum
Well to be fair, I never knew the Directors had actually "assured" him on this point. We know they'd never mislead or lie to anyone so we can breathe easy now......so.......I also presume they "assured" him that the quality of the players and their affect on the team would enhance us and not make us weaker and that we'd keep a hold of our better players. Why do I not feel so "assured" as Cabaye. (first day in the job, every company seems great etc). You old cynic you. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. -
Cheers, Nick.

I think it's what would need to be paid for Ashley to break even. Just got it from the link in robs delloite thread and they don't go into detail. Purchase price £132 Million, repaying pre-exisiting debts of £70 Million (of which £45 Million was the stadium mortgage, the rest was "other loans") plus £27 Mill owed on transfers, whatever else since has been injected working capital. Did we not have any transfer fees owed to us? It's just I've heard the fact that we owed outstanding amounts ad nauseum from different sources defending Ashley, but rarely hear of any amounts that we were waiting on and as the football world largely pays in installments I find this a bit odd. Just saying, like.

People who take 5-a-side way to seriously!

Theres only one sad cunt in this thread and thats you, billy no mates and a water drinking, grassing wanker to boot. Every now and again you let your guard slip and show what an arrogant prick you really are. Its sad to think that one day you'll have children and bring them up the same, bitter, arrogant and miserable as fuck. The patients you treat will be better company than you, that I don't doubt. You posted your wedding photos on the internet to share with people you don't know, what the fuck is wrong with you?.......if thats not a definition of sad I'm not really sure what is. "There's something........I'm getting.........Yes........there's definitely some kind of tension here!" -
I can't look forward to the future as the cunt has kicked me out of my seat.....AGAIN!

I remember Paddocklad saying he was banned for the most ridiculous thing on there, (N.O). No warning, no tell off, just a permanent ban. Never been tempted to even have a look after that tale and their apparent fondness for our current owner and mate.

I tried to kick a family out of their caravan in Estartit when I was 18 and full of beer and vodka on my first night, telling them it was my caravan. They let me crash on their sofa and I thanked them by spewing in the middle of the night before walking out the door and falling asleep on the grass. I woke up and couldn't remember any of this until one of the fathers daughters spotted me a week later and told me about it. I felt a bit bad and took them round a bottle of wine as a 'sorry'. Didn't get into the lass which was no surprise when you think about it.

Climbing on the bus stop just outside the old 'Apollo' cinema at the bottom of Shields Road on a sunny teatime and smiling serenely and waving at the people on the top deck of the buses. I was fucking blotto that day on cheap 8% abv cider (and I don't even like the stuff).

Woke up on the roof of an old works building, it was tiled and obviously slanted. I'm in no way religious but I sometimes wonder about the old belief of God watching over a drunk.

;) Who 'foisted' Shearer and KK on him? For that statement alone he loses any cedibility he may think he has. Another point, everyone who insists he's cleared us of debt and there's a few, can you just point me to the press release where Llambias or whomever has said, 'he's paid up all your debts for you, you're now debt free, you owe nobody a penny, me included'. Of all the people who are either pro-Ashley or just willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, (which is fair enough in its own right and they're entitled to their say), some put some good arguments over and then there's bell helmets like this knob. He is the one who really doesn't have a clue. Nothing personal, fact, etc, etc.

Just been chatting to a Mag I know on Merseyside. Is it true there's a few worries on Andy Carroll's fitness on the red side?

Come on, what's wrong with seeing beyond the burning issues? We aren't living in Asterix's village. Your living in Sunnycrest, aren't you?

I must admit, when I got up this morning I was just thinking, "Whey that fucking Sammy McIllroy's got some neck on him." You must be a WUM, there's no other explanation that makes more sense. Do you have any info on why he left Stoke? Where did he go? Did he put a transfer request in? Did Stoke get an offer which they couldn't turn down? Did your carers give you an achievement award when you learned to tie your own laces? (As an aside, my late Granda was one of the people Sammy sought advice from when he decided to go professional as he was an apprentice at the same place).

hmmmmmmm? Are you alright? He's looking for a plot. He seems to have mislaid his. -
It could only happen to me, like. Whilst being out in the Town the need came on to visit a toilet. Where to go though? Where could I go that wasn't like the Bog from Trainspotting? I have a think and Fenwicks comes to mind, thats always in good nick as they don't want to offend the middle class oldies who frequent the shop. In I go, champion. The place is spotless and empty apart from the trap next to me, oh well, can't have it all I thought. So I get on and do what I've got to do when all of a sudden a voice comes from the next trap..... "Alreet, mate?" Fucking hell! It could only happen to me, like. The only lunatic in the World to shop in Fenwicks has decided to have a shite at the same time as me. Oh well, I thought, I'll humour the nutter..... "Aye canny" I say smiling to myself and hoping thats the end of it. Not a chance as the voice pipes up...... "What ye deeing like?" I don't believe this, I'm having a conversation with some nutter on the bog. I reply a little forcefully.... "Whey y'knaa, just trying to have a QUIET shite, what about you?" I felt that that would be a big enough hint until the voice spoke again..... "Hang on, mate, I'll have to ring you back, there's some nutcase talking to me in the next toilet!!"
