This has the potential to be a massive game changer for the Prem and obviously Newcastle - more money coming into a club

Toon fans up here are going nuts over it, funny, they were moaning about Man City spending too much up until only recently, now they're over the moon they've potentially got a massive war chest

The story would of been more interesting if his takeover of Liverpool last year had happened ðŸ˜

Will be interesting times ahead and I have heard the new owners want Benitez to stay. Trouble is will Ashley accept this time as there have been previous bids on the table only for them to collapse.

Is that the Evening Echo. Echo, Echo, get your Evening Echo
Well the papers do all print the same thing..............
Previous bidders didn't have the cash. If they couldn't raise the amount then how could they invest in the team afterwards? Presumably money is not an issue this time so no reason for Ashley to pull out, unless he is stupid and tries to jack the price up last minute.

A few reports suggesting that the person is not who says he is and doesn’t have the “fortune†believed , he didn’t even meet our owners last summer and a journo on Twitter has posted about it all not being all it seems.

BUT will there be a conflict of interest as they are related, cousins I think.Imagine City are up for the title and playing Newcastle last game of the season. Also does the money come from the same pot. Posted same time as Phil’s above. Hope they are not related

I saw that. It's a very different amount of money but you are quite right. The guy will have to show his money and pass the fit and proper person test. The Toon fans I know wont believe it until it is signed and sealed and the pictures are taken. Too many false dawns.

I can see this is going to run and run and will it reach a point where Benitez has enough and walks away

is it just me or does this takeover saga just sound like PR bullshit?
Ther is always a takeover bid or supposed war chest around season ticket renewal time 🤔

No I think you have a valid point. Funny how these sort of stories come out at the same time each year. I wonder how serious Ashley really is about selling and whether its all PR for him?
Europa League final tonight, fancy Arsenal to do it.
Can’t believe Willian isn’t starting for Chelsea.

Bumped into Sawtooth at the range tonight. He's unsurprisingly certain Arsenal will win providing they can keep Hazard quiet. Personally I can see it going into extra time and Arsenal nicking it

As a Yid, believe it or not I hope Arsenal win. Come on the Gooners
Stadium looks half empty, a disgrace for a European final.
