park lane is in mayfair..no record of her owning one of those..her house on the other hand is also her registered office and she declared a donation of it to the tories (you dont have to declare it if you dont own it cos then you aint the donor innit??)

Newcastle have spent £290 since howe took over, by your logic Newcastle in over two years have generated that amount, not a chance,

She’s just lost a civil case and has to pay a debt of £3.5m to a Greek shipping bloke. Can’t post the link

Been following this case for weeks now. Her defence is the biggest load of rot you will ever hear, the Judge must think she's a total f***ing idiot. Says she felt intimidated and pressured to sign and that he took advantage of her Huntingdons condition. She and her accountants and legal advisors drafted the agreement and they spent months and months going back and forth finessing the finer details. If she doesn't pay he's going to Bankrupt her through the courts. I would assume under the new fit and proper that will be her goosed from being a director at NUFC.

Might have been something to do with the fact he knew he was getting the sack. It was all over the press and they did nothing to quell the rumours. I’m not a Bruce fan, he isn’t very smart and a bit lazy minded, but they should have been straight with him from the off and terminated his contract. Instead he was hanging around waiting for the sack while they were obviously trying to get somebody else. He knew it and the fans knew it

Whilst i am no fan of the regime let's not shed too many tears for Bruce. He doesn't have a great track record of loyalty to employers. Jumped ship plenty of times for a better opportunity.

borrowing is how that private equity world works...albeit she does take on bigger deals she can handle..she is trying to transition from being an adviser on deals and just getting a deal fee (she got about £30mn for advising on the Braclays deal but had wanted to be a shareholder and didnt have the dough..thats whty she lost in court) she seems to have talen her fee for the newcastle deal in newcastle shares but not quite got the cash to follow that on which you need to with a capital intensive project like the mags..

How do you know he is not very smart and lazy minded. Do you know him personally or just making stuff up. Serious question.

Intimidated and pressured by small business deals but was deemed fit and proper to spend £350m on a football club. That's before the Saudi connections :lol:
