You've already lied about the Reuben brothers being the majority shareholders. I've not seen one article that's suggested it.

You are allowed to say you don't know everything you know. You'd get a lot more credit than trying to act like you know stuff you clearly don't

I made a mistake. Hold my hands up to it. A lie, as has been tediously pointed out to you, is a deliberate attempt to decieve, not error. An erroe is not a lie.

Posting a laughing smiley after mentioning the work done by those that organised the food bank donations doesn’t suggest you’re giving it a lot of credit tbh. Linking the shite songs some dafties sing alongside it and suggesting the two are linked is ridiculous, man.

The smiley face was me laughing at the hypocrisy of the shite your fans come out with. You trying to misconstrue my words and claim some higher ground is absurd to me, but there we go. I’m not wasting any more time on such a ridiculous notion.
 
Whilst there is no guarantee of success with billionaires as owners I find it hard to believe that new investors aren’t going to try and give it a go. Immediately this puts them in a better position than with Ashley who effectively did the bare minimum to secure the lucrative TV money.

The fact that Ashley leaves gives the club and the fans an immediate boost and unfortunately this lot have form for riding the wave of confidence, it will be tough as lots of club have billionaire owners but this could well have them in and around the much vaunted Wolves side. I’d love us to be at that level and it’s pointless me saying any different.

If it happens the lads and dads at my young uns football will be for a time like dogs with two dicks and who can blame them, yeah they will wind us up but they know we are as dyed in the wool as they are, just so happens it is dyed different colours. The dickheads amongst their support won’t bother me at all.

If this was investment putting them on a par with us then you know what bring it on, let’s fight it out but unfortunately it just rubs our noses in it a bit given the shit show at our place and lack of any real positivity.

Of course I hope this goes massively tits up but can’t help but wish we had some similar green shoots of optimism to talk, and get excited, about.

You get more wrong than right fella, pack it in a little bit. You claimed Donald would be great aswell and he bought the club with parachute payments and look how this has turned out for you. I bet if we dig back far enough you probably thought Short was great too. Truth is you just don't know.

In my opinion, Donald to have cloven hooves and horns, In terms of clearing out the Augean stables he's done a pretty good job,. He did not buy the club with parachute payments. The parachute payments repaid the last part of the SBC which Short put nto Drumaville. Short was well meaning, but misguided.

Well avoided again. I tell you what, the question that you yourself admit was asked to somebody else, I will answer, after you show me where you raised your concerns and upset about Saudi investment in Sheff Utd.

the potnential difference is this newcastle thing is the saudi state..sheff utd was supposed to be private capital from a saudi person..a person who isnt accountable for the actions of the govt..the sheff utd lad also seems to be a bit skint..

So the fundamental question is why would he do that unless he is a distressed seller? He is not a charitable man.

is there a tax benefit i wonder? im completely guessing like..but...could nhe offset the £150m when its repaid and it not count in the cgt bill?
the club owes him £144m already so thats £294m..or the thich end of the purchase price with no tax bill?
thats completeky me specuatin mind and happy to be proved wrong..

The Ashley years will have an asterisk next to them.

* 2007 - 2020. Did not try.

It is a bit like the Vichy government in France during the war years.

How is it hypocrisy if it’s not the same people that collect for food banks that sing songs mocking poverty in Sunderland?

I mean, unless you know different like.

Does it not also signify Ashley is scrambling to liquify some assets to prop up shortfalls elsewhere?
Click to expand...
but he is the one reducing his liquidity by giving it to her...in exchange fir a charge..so he is swopping a liquid thing (cash) for an illiquid thung (either a promise to pay or the proceeds if a court case) very illiquid things..

You at it again? Thought I had explained what a lie is? Email your teacher and clarify. Grumpy is a very thoughtful and helpful poster so a bit of respect would be nice.
