I thought thats what all "successful" businessmen do? I mean doesn't Trump have something like $500 million dollar in debt? Branson's the same, the models quite simple borrow money and try and make millions with it!Originally Posted by MadAmster

MA the Prem have never given Newcastle a reason why the offer as rejected .That's why Ashley is taking them to court .I would have assumed that Ashleys legal team would have done due diligence on it Something doesn't seem right though if he is worth the billions the press say he is you wouldn't think there would be a problem Anyway ours is with the EFL now so expect an answer sometime in 2023

I've no idea what the criteria are for assessing the fitness of a person or organisation that aims to take control of a football club, but clearly with Wigan they didn't accept that they may have made a misjudgment!

I hear that Chris Samuelson and Andrew Obolensky have both been removed from the deal? Perhaps to get it over the line?
