    not really merely pointing out that the new owners to increas the revenue will need to increase the gates ,etc increase match revenue
    advertising etc etc etc

    buying us is a billion pound investment over 2-3 years

    we supposably have the fan base

    30k at 40 quid a game

    goes some way to doing that

    and if true to their word they will all come flooding back

    even the ones that left when mckeag and his lot ripped us off

    i would love a geordie consortium to buy the club
    why not

    they could put the money to buy the club
    and then it could be self funding

    wouldnt be able to compete with the top 6-8 but with gates and revenue could certainly compete with the likes of huddersfield ,brighton,burnley etc etc etc bournemouth

    Is this just a personal thing? A sort of nose off to spite your face kind of thing?

    yep 70 odd clubs would love an owner like ours and be in our position

    we would be doing a sunderland if those passionate sir john hall and his like still been here

    running up huge debts by standards then

    and they loved the club the city etc
    they sold it to Ash

    i would have thought someone who loved the club would have had written into the contract some secured spending etc

    like jack walker did
