Historic adviser to Cheryl Cole, what the hell is that?
He is an historian. He wrote a book called The Northumbrians about the northeast. It's a canny enough read although he does suggest within it that American Hillbillies are all direct descendants from settlers from Sunderland, and this accounts for why they are such bumpkinny weirdos - the cheeky twat. He is also a mag bellend. Another right on posh Geordie who is happy to take blood money without a second glance.

But what is he advising Cheryl Cole on, is he her history teacher? Maybe it's just tongue in cheek, it sounds totally random.

It’s as if Neil Oliver wasn’t annoying enough, so they made him a mag 😄

He appears to think grown ups sitting about in a 'pub' (it's akin to a school dinner hall) sipping vastly over priced beer in an airport in skunk tops is a brilliant thing.

On my last trip in June I saw a handful of people in mag tops. The first was a skinny little fella about 60 and the rest, were to a man and one woman all fatties. They all looked ridiculous. I saw one kid in Sunderland top.

I'm 55 and haven't wore a Sunderland top for about 30 years when I became a parent and started buying them for my kids.
 
Ive just watched a documentary ( or if you are Paddy Conroy a docramentey) any how’s it was about the MBS and all of the naughty stuff he did like arrest 200 of the most rich people in the Saudi state, a the atrocities in Yemen, and that little bit about suffocating that journalist before carving up his body and putting him in bin bags. Call me a snow flake, but I wouldn’t really say that is someone who should be running a football club in this country for his sports washing plot. I wonder if their oil has anything to do with Boris Johnson wanting the Saudi state to snuggle up over here. Yet there are probably something like 99.999999999% of gravy stained fuck wits that turn a blind eye whilst they brag about being the richest club in the world. They are made for each other.
 
Stagnant in the financial sense. No activity, no investment, no deals, no graft put into the commercial side basically. He was happy to scrape survival spending the bare minimum to survive while having free advertising for Sports Direct. Compare and contrast the revenue of SD and NUFC over the time Big Mike had his greasy mits on the club. I'm sure as shit SD couldn't be described as stagnant. It grew, great news for MA, not so great for Newcastle.

If we'd not have been capable of the same growth as Spurs, surely we'd be capable of more than £500k in 14 years during a commercial boom? Doesn't even cover inflation.

Stuff like the Puma kit deal beggars belief. We signed a deal in the championship and went on to renegotiate it once it expired for the same price when we were in the premier league. What went on there? We're worth more as a premier league club than as a championship club, Shirley?

I dunno. Seems pretty obvious to me Ashley was out of his depth and out for himself. A bad combo for the owner of a football club. We were lucky as fuck to get back into the premier league at the first time of asking, not once but twice! And again we were lucky that we only went down twice in his tenure. Fuck knows how Bruce didn't get us relegated, genuinely baffling considering the "football" we were playing. Wouldn't wish Ashley on my worst enemy, although I'd be interested to see what happens at his next club.

Speaking of Bruce, I know your lot will send him my regards next season. That's if he's still robbing a living when you play them of course
Don’t know the ins and outs enough to comment on the wider position but with the kit deal I’m not so sure that premier league/championship makes a difference.

The reason for that is (by the way I include nearly every club in this not just you lot) I would imagine your kit sales are very strong regardless of league standing. I doubt there is a massive uptake for them outside of exiles across the globe therefore getting promoted wouldn’t necessarily bring a great increase in revenue for the manufacturer.

Breaking into top 4/6, into Europe possibly would bring increases but I just think to grow the brand and increase sales to get a big kit deal you have to be winning things, foreign fans, other than exiles, just want to back a winning horse.

Sponsorship could be different as exposure in premier is bigger than the championship so he may well have been behind the curve on that score but as I said I don’t know the ins and outs.
