hope a takeover is done quickly

[TANYA_]

This Lady wanting a football club will hopefully complete swiftly , she dealt with the the Citeh takeover too,
they were after buying our club first but the fat b'stard was being too greedy in his asking price, so they turned to Citeh.

I personally reckon she is solely after Newcastle, finances are in order (court case pending) we are actually making money, we have a top sold out stadium and a world class manager.
She needs to say that she is interested in other clubs so theres always the element of going elsewhere if fatty tries to get clever again.

I hope this court thing doesnt uncover illegal shlt from the top, we will be ****ed if they do

I just hope it would be done quickly so that come January we can buy players rather than not because of an apparent takeover.

Agreed the court case could be the fly in ointment.

If it turns out the club have been playing fast and loose with the tax laws/rules then the toxic atmosphere of the last days of the Pardew regime will seem like a child's party compared with what will happen if we get a points deduction...or worse.

Would be quite ironic if Ashley himself fucked up his only chance of selling.

Lots of 'ifs' to be sorted first, though.

I do think we're a good prospect for investment, as Tanya said we have the stadium, support, and a top class manager already in place.

I think if there is going to be a takeover it would be before January, as any investor would want to invest into the squad to secure Prem survival.

Thing is, I wouldn't be surprised by Ashley screwing things up... asking too much, asking to keep the logo for his tat factory all over SJP, or trying to renegotiate after terms are agreed... if he scuppers the deal though, and we found out, there'd be hell on.

Well summed up in a few words Nufcian.

trouble is though how much scope does that leave investors to earn money on their investment - not a lot really unless they go all out for continuous champions league (yeah something p boro said previously/a while ago - but does make some sense

I could believe Ashley would screw it up.

Gets them to agree and then decides because they've agreed he can push a bit further. I can really see that happening.
