Remy the hare 603 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 1 hour ago, Mckram said: You could not be more wrong. Mike Ashley is not a Newcastle fan. He bought Newcastle for an opportunity to promote his businesses, mainly Sports Direct. If Mel called Pride Park the Candy Crush Arena and put advertising boards up everywhere with Candy Crush on I’d say you may have half a chance of comparing the two. I agree with you on the above, however Mel had sold his shares of King Entertainment by the time he took over 100%, so he had nothing commercially to sell to my knowledge. I’m at a Mike Ashley fan, but most owners would do the same as him if they had something to sell. Link to post Share on other sites

You’d think getting it finalised and getting us a better squad would come under the securing a great future tag. I’ll happily put my hands up and apologise if I’m wrong but the fact that this deal hasn’t been concluded yet is incredibly poor. Mick Brolly 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Well then he should expect more of the same I would imagine. He's been a football fan and involved in the commercial side of the club for some time. If he didn't expect to face negative reactions from fans then perhaps he should have stayed a fan only. Edited January 24 by RoyMac5 Tyler Durden 1 Link to post Share on other sites

DCFC1388 2,572 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I know BZI have come in for a lot of criticism and it may well be rightly placed, however the none completion at Christmas was due to the main investor pulling out last minute, is that really BZI's fault? Who knows why they pulled out, maybe due to our league position, personal reasons or just didnt fancy spending all that money on us, none of us know for sure. But i'm not sure how much blame can be put on BZI or Mel for that happening? If they are having daily conversations you would hope BZI are close to other investors, if so I would imagine Mel would need to get their backgrounds checked to make sure all is well, not sure if they would need to be checked by the EFL again? Once thats all sorted it could be a case of new contracts being drawn up & signed then transfer of money again. There has to be a reason for the club to be confident it will go through and not to have pulled out of the deal by now. Indy 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Can never understand these comments. If he was going to stop contributing to the club based upon criticism (abuse is different but that applies to anyone, just not football club owners) on the way he runs it, then he shouldn't have taken it over in the first place.

There's a load of difference between criticism and abuse. I've seen criticism on here but the mods wouldn't tolerate someone being abused quite rightly unless the OP means on Twitter or some other social media platform. If it's abuse then absolutely it's a disgrace no two ways about it. Link to post Share on other sites
