Mike Ashley

Her er linken til gårsdagens påstander om at den ene kjøperen skulle ha betraktelig mer penger, samt litt andre gladnyheter, så får vi krysse fingrene.

Da kan vi nok utelukke Ananda Krishnan som ny eier også.....

"News reports were carried on July 5 and July 6 in various newspapers in Malaysia and Singapore that Mr Ananda Krishnan or companies owned by Mr Krishnan had expressed an interest in purchasing Newcastle United Football Club and that his representatives had been engaged in talks to explore or even conclude such a deal.

"There is in fact no truth or foundation to this story.

Det går visst noen rykter om at Gianluca Vialli blir ansatt som DoF straks de nye eierne har skrevet klubben over på seg. Det fortsetter med at Shearer også visstnok er klar og at spissen Beckford fra Leeds blir det første kjøpet.

"The new owners are based in Hong Kong, not Malaysia. The sale will be
announced tomorrow and Gianluca Vialli will be appointed Director of
Football. Shearer is expected to be named manager. There will be £30
million made available for transfers.

Ashley is selling for £85 million up front with £100 million to be
paid in the future in repayment of the loan. Barclays are owed £40
million which has to be paid within two years.

Our first signing will be Jermaine Beckford from Leeds - the deal is
ready for signing as soon as the sale is completed.

Harper is to be made club captain and there are several offers on the
table for our players including Martins, Gutierrez, Coloccini and Smith.

Source is a mate that works in NUFC's legal department."

PS! Dette er klippet fra N-O og jeg ville tatt det med en stor klype salt.

Dette vil jeg se før jeg tror det.. Men for all del..

[Kristoffer]

Vialli. Den var ny!

[Joakim]

Hehe. Gammel lagkamerat med Dennis Wise i Chelsea, etterfulgte vår venn Gullit som manager i samme klubb. Da sier det jo seg selv at han må være på vei inn.

[MaKo]

Tror den historien der er bare tull. Den kommer vist fra Skunkers og han som postet den, skrev vist med hvit skift under at det bare var tull siden alle kunne være ITK'ere eller noe sånt.

Hvem vet.

[Frode]

Flere enn meg som evt går i fella da......

Nicko @ Brfcs:

NEWCASTLE...this takeover thing could be very close...but some people are telling porkies at that club...so we shall see.

Vi får se ja :p


EDIT:
Er vist flere aviser som kjører Hong Kong historien som kommer fra Skunkers.



In white text at the bottom he said "Everyone else seems to have an ITK so i thought i'd make something up as well" .

[Kristoffer]

Og i dag skriver The Chronicle at hele greia var en eneste stor fleip, som tydeligvis hele verden gikk på nesten!

[Offe87]

Mange som liker å fleipe med Newcastle for tida, kan ikke si jeg ser humoren i det for øyeblikket.

[Thomas Beckheim]

Gir snart opp hele overtakelsen:(

Kan ikke bare Bill Gates komme på banen snart da???

De sponser vel både Real M. og AC Milan (drakt sponsor)

A guy I work with (never been one to talk s**** or claimed to be in ITK) has passed on some information that is not really new but may shed light on why everything has come to a standstill.

Apparently there have been 3 bids in excess of £100M, however Ashley would only trouser about half of that amount as the bids include paying outstanding transfer fees, undertaking the overdraft etc. Ashley isn't too keen on playing ball as he wants to gain £100M himself, meaning in reality he really wants about £150M.

Seymour Pierce have allegedly named the Asian Consortium as the preferred bidder, as they offer the best options in terms of stability and future investment, however they also offer Ashley a worse option in what he would gain in cash. Shepherd's consortium apparently offer the best deal for Ashley in relation to what he would gain, but only by about £10M, and would also leave Shepherd and Co to pay off some transfer fees. Interestingly, the Asians (No clarification was given whether or not these were Malaysian or not) also have a local businessman as part of their consortium, and he would likely be their figurehead if their bid came to fruition. They would almost certainly put Shearer in charge, and he would be given a modest transfer budget, but also be allowed to spend any incoming fees. The business plans of all 3 bids are based on promotion this season. Ashley believes he can force at least one of the group's hands to stump up a little extra cash, and has told Seymour Pierce this, who have advised him he's unlikely to be offered more than he already has, and to run with one of the 3 offers. He doesn't want to do business with Shepherd though, although it's looking increasingly likely that he might have to.

As I said only what I've been told, sounds quite plausible and was apparently from someone at Barclays

Kan jo kanskje forklare hvorfor ting tar litt tid, om dette stemmer.
Virker som Asia gruppa hadde passet klubben bra.

Det er ryktetid så det holder for tiden.....
