It's funny that we used to say that all those divvies and muppets Sky interviewed outside SJP didn't represent the average Newcastle fan, but I'm beginning to think they actually do...

trooper 940 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 The trouble is with Ashley’s much reported transfer ‘strategy’, if a player is sold for say £20m (Cabaye) then any incoming player/s have to come from this £20m. Sign a player for £15m then the wages for that player can only be £5m over the length of his contract. Adding agents fees into this figure then you start to knock down what you pay for the player, the wages or both. That’s before you debate the quality of the player you’re actually getting. http://www.themag.co.uk/the-mag-articles/will-mike-ashley-stick-twist-this-summer/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26417 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Currently worth £3.75bn according to the Sunday Times rich list, making him the 23rd richest person in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 5934 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Aye, richer than Richard Branson and made nearly £1.5billion last year alone. And he's still trying to squeeze out every last penny from the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 5934 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Also, NUFC made £78mil off tv rights this year. A £34 mil increase over last season. Add in the Cabaye sale and the fact we were running at a +£10mil profit last season already and the club should be around +£65 million this season. Remind me how we can't compete with the financial might of Southampton again? Owned by the 23rd richest man in the country, biggest net profit in the league on player sales over the last 5 years and an approximate £65mil profit this season.
