You don't believe it as it doesn't suit your agenda.

Has a loan been agreed with Big Mike?

A yes or no will do.

Hahahahahhahahaha I don't believe it because it's the Sun.

If it stated we were moments away from signing Mbappe I still wouldn't believe it because well it's the Sun. You are choosing to believe the Sun because it fits your agenda. You should be embarrassed :lol:

Please point me to anywhere in this thread where I denied the loan existed. Literally any post I have made.
Other than suggesting that, with his history, he might be pulling a fast one on her, the only other motive I can think off is that he needs this to get the deal over the line. What I don't know, and find unfathomable is why Ashley is doing it, and not the Reubens or the Saudis.

Nobody knows. In future accounts etc people more intelligent than me may be able to work it out but my guess is we will never know.
Not at all, just keeping it factual.

Big Mike is having to partially fund the sale.

Factual :lol: quotes the Sun and states factual 😂

It is the odd part of it, hence why I keep saying the WHY is guesswork.

If you really want to pretend that Staveley is working on her own and there are no funds to buy the club so Ashley is just going to lend her all the money, go ahead!😂
Not once have I said that, but don't let that get in the way of you misquoting me.

All I've mentioned is her funding her own 10% purchase. She can't, seemingly those behind the remaining 90% are unwilling to, so she's had to take a loan from Big mike.

From Louise Taylor, Sunderland fan and fine journalist in the Guardian.

“Newcastle’s owner has long been known for driving the hardest of bargains but the coronavirus crisis has been extremely bad news for his retail empire and he now seems keen to offload Newcastle”

I think she is right. This man normally parks his tanks on the lawn when making deals and loves winning the upper hand.

Due to Corona it appears he has had to blink first and take a lower price.

If so this will be killing him inside and sends a real message about the fragility of his other assets.

Again, you don't know that.

All you know is that there is a loan of some amount to Staveley at this point. It is very odd. But nobody knows what that is about right now, we can just guess!
 
Clearly flogging before the incoming recession

Massive moral issues here, but if it happened to us we would have looked past it

the only thing thats annoying me is this idea that Mags have had it so hard

f***ing mid table side, just spent 40 million on a football player

f***ing idiots
certainly bringing it home that our owner is Stewart f***ing Donald,

jesus wept

Just because your previous two owners have been massively out of their depths doesn't detract from ours being shite. Before he arrived in my lifetime we were playing in Europe and getting relegated was highly unlikely (I'm 32) and well, you know the rest.

Both clubs are equally as far from their peak levels and have fallen incredibly far in terms of recovering lost ground.

It is a miracle Newcastle survive in the Premier League with the wage structure and discontent in the fan base.

A new generation will see what Newcastle, as a city, feels like on match day.

You divide and discredit yourselves, particularly you two throwing accusations around and liking each other. Thought you were mates.
Last point wasted on me. Got nowt against office workers.

There was also the massive currency placed in who clicked the like button on posts.

‘You claim this yet over 20 have agreed with my post’

Apologies, how remiss of me.

Thank you for acknowledging (not) that I've never claimed Big Mike is fronting her the total purchase price.

FWIW - I think there's more to come out on this, Ashley said after the last attempt by Staveley to front a consortium that he was annoyed it leaked out and that any future dealings would be done "behind closed doors".

I will wait for The Sun to confirm it 😂

Absolute rubbish.

You are are a natural mid table club. It's your level. Even with this investment it's likely that's where you will reside.

You are currently mid table. That peroid from 92 to 2001 was an anomaly.

Mid table doesn't explain the multiple relegations and relegation battles.

He did. And it has. You can't stop reports coming out when things are public knowledge, but there has been no press release or comment from either side.

It's going through the EPL checks, so it's a ways down the line. I'm optimistic whilst worried something will go wrong.

Have you got me confused?
I honestly don't know what you are on about. I've been having a little spat with you and Banks but that is all. Don't know what post 20 have agreed with or where office workers come into the picture.
We might be getting off topic, again. I'm getting derailed.
