Anorthernsoul 1222 Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Funny time for him to sell when things are finally on the up and the future looks positive, could turn into a nightmare again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11647 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 More likely to be Carson Yeung than anything else imo. At least we know what to expect with Ashley now, the new owner could decide to try and foist players on Benitez, or get rid of him altogether.

Kid Dynamite 8153 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 He would need £260mil to break even. But the club is now pulling in £100mil of tv money a year and Ashley will need an incentive to sell so I'd imagine he's looking for £300mil+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 8153 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Funnily enough Forbes has us listed as worth £300mil (their exchange rate is way off?) https://www.forbes.com/teams/newcastle-united/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 6715 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Oh ffs. Just ffs. Has any Chinese consortium ever worked? Are they gonna change the club badge, strip colours, who the fuck knows what else? Let's see I suppose but it's concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1222 Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Seems quite convenient that this has clearly been leaked by the club and it's coming up to the final season ticket renewal stage, don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
