What would you rather have ?

[TANYA_]

number 1

huge investment doesnt necessary win things

and even if we do get a huge investment in
dosnt mean we will win straaight away
may take several years if not 10,s of years
and as im older than some

ill take a trophy now
rather than a dream that might be

oh theres a shock, the only "fan" who would choose this

the bigger picture is.. you may have chosen number one, but we all know you as a number 2

[Zippity]

Number 2.

Much as I would love to see us win a Cup, the bigger picture is about hope and ambition. I do take Pboro's point about a new owner not guaranteeing anything but we haven't won anything in my NUFC-supporting life so a few more years wouldn't worry me.

Tbh, if it was suddenly announced that we had been sold then I'd feel like we'd won something anyway.

zippythat wasnt the question
the question was would you ake a cup now under ash

any true supporter would take a trophy
surely thats what we are here for

how can you in one way slag ash for not having a go in the cups
yet when he does and if we win a trophy slag him off

we didnt win anything under shepheard
and never kicked on either

yes we got to europe and some cup finals which was great but a few more years in the wilderness which is where we were heading would have had the fans turning on their own

expenditure never guarantees anything ,leeds and a lot of others will testify to that

but first you need a buyer with the wedge
and who will buy a club for close to near 400 miilion plus
spend that again when in 4-5 years the big teams go of and form a european super league

it will take us that long and 500-plus million just to try and catch up

thats why no one will buy us

What the fu (K you dribbling on about now?
Question was.........
1. Newcastle win FA Cup this season and Ashley stays.
2. We dont win it and the takeover isnt a fakeover
Pretty simple hypothetical question......

I would LOVE a Cup, don't get me wrong but the question is purely hypothetical as we will never win a Cup under fatso as we will never have a squad capable of it.

And as for the 'any true supporter' bit...as Chris Sutton would say 'you're better than that'.




....aren't you?

[pboromag]

no i dont know a single supporter that wouldnt want to win something under any owner

look at the teams that have won a cup and then get relegated
ask their fans
they would ahve a cup win and that memory over any owner

lets face it half the fans on here caant or werent around in mckeags days
i would have still taken a trophy then than the shepards

winning a trophy is a positive
a new owner is a gamble and no guarantee of anything

i rmeber people wetting themselves the last time a billionaire owner brought us

who was that

[Kal]

I came across this yesterday.Would you rather ;

1. Newcastle win FA Cup this season and Ashley stays.
2. We dont win it and the takeover isnt a fakeover

I would go for number 2.Whilst it would be great to win something I look at the bigger picture. If it is massive investment coming our chances of winning things in future increase.

In reality though we all know half of 1 will happen and 2 well,we know what to do with that thought.

1 then Ashley to be tragically taken from us.

[Zippity]

1 then Ashley to be tragically taken from us.

We have a winner.

[Milburn9]

1 then Ashley to be tragically taken from us.

He wasnt a billionaire when he bought us but is a multi billionaire now.
So who has profited from the relationship between Newcastle United and Mike Ashley
