My worry is Ashley will try and sneak in long term Sports Direct advertising at SJP as part of the deal, and that will put of potential buyers who would probably have their own ideas about who the main sponsor should be.

so the rest of the clubs income could fund players and the running of the club
how about this
would you as a match going fan be prepared to pay an extra £8 per ticket to owna part of the club
that alone would generate roughly 400k per week enough to buy players going forward
imagine the increase in shirt sales per season
imagine the increase from the shop
imagine the increase in local advertising
take the 5-8 mill we could replace from mikes sports direct advertising (if he doesnt make the new owner keep it )but he is desperate so im not to sure he would want to keep it
i reckon there is at leats another 9-15 mill there so 20 odd million
if the geordie nation ever had realistic dreams of owning their club there is no better chance than now
lets see who steps up
to me it will be a right royal laugh if at least one interested party doesnt step up from the north east
the geordies wont do it mateQuote:

look at shearer stingg a couple of other big people form the toon all with connections and money
none have never stepped forward
shearers the one that gets my goat
he must know so many people yet has never once fronted a serious purchase of the club
if i had the chance to purchase my home town club knowing i have a cast iron guarantee of an income to cover the purchase price i would be on the club steps in the morning
but i guarantee they just roll over and some chinese or arabs will come in and plaster their advertising all over the ground
change the stadium name
could even change the colour of the stripes
others have sold their souls for premiership survival
we will be the same
that turned over 1.64 milion last yearQuote:

Get a couple of ya mates and buy Pboro United then.
BTW - not that i particularly want chinese buyers or anything
did anyone see that the president/leader of China (whatever he is) placed a ban on chinese buying overseas sports clubs in august.
so if there had been interest from the chinese that was scuppered then anyway.
however there is something happening next week - in china - when that ban could maybe be lifted.
