Shame it's not the players we want to leave being sold.

Lets hope he's got money behind him. The club needs some investment deperately.

What a joke.

Where's this like? Skysports supposedly, hopefully its bullshit. D. Craig: "Llambias informed me that Hughton has given exceptional service to the club and deserves the job after steadying the ship (!) through a difficult period." Just when you think it couldn't get anyworse......

Something is definitely afoot.........didn't believe it until now. £10Mil is amazing money for Bassong; but he's not a high earner and is exactly the type of player any prospective buyer would want to keep.

Really sad news. A legend in every sense of the word. RIP Sir Bob.

But knowing Newcastle we'll sell him for next to nothing.

Didn't know that.

It will cover Ashleys losses more like.

I'll say 30K but what do I know........

The missing piece of the jigsaw?? As Ashley would be the major creditor, administration would seem an odd move financially. But Ashley could probably take his losses at Newcastle, which would be close to £250m, and set them against profit at his other companies, such as Sports Direct. Ashley’s tax liability would then be reduced and his loss not so great Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/...0#ixzz0MVHJ6NSx Bingo! So there you have it, the answer to what's going on - we can now look forward to a 10pt deduction and no players - at least whoever buys the club after that will be able to start with a clean slate I guess. I hope karma gets Ashley for what he's done to our club, as a Spurs fan I'm sure he won't give a shit. There is no guarantee anyone would buy it.

Article about this in the Mail...... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/...d.html?ITO=1490 This has been my fear since he put the club up for sale and washed his hands of it. It is a very real possibility.

Really? Where did you hear that? Even so.....I still don't believe a word of it. All seems like pie in the sky.....

Players are an asset. I suppose they see the club being worth more with some.

Does anyone really believe these guys are for real? All bidders have had to sign non discloser agreements.

I didn't know Lee Dixon was a Steward?

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/ MA is just letting Newcastle rot.

I hope you're right.......it's all gone quiet.

It wouldn't surprise me.

Compared to the money we've shelled out on the likes of Smith, Barton, Colli, Owen, etc, etc,......I'd say he's bought well.

As far as I'm aware Bassong has yet to be sold. And I've not a clue who McLovin is....

To think the Arabs came knocking on our door before Man City......

I agree........can't blame him one bit. He was the ONE player I would have been sad to see leave. It beggars belief at the way Ashley has run this club. just when you think things can't get anyworse he does this.

It's not looking good... http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/ju...ale-mike-ashley
