If Top was a new buyer after Vichai

[Gamble92]

If he was a completely new owner, how would he be viewed? 

[UHDrive]

Delete thread. Far too hypothetical.

[Raj]

Great thread 

[MattFox]

He was appointed to the board before Vichai was when they took over

 

He’s been involved longer

[Sly]

It would be classed as an utter disaster.

You've done like 17,000 posts mocking the club. You won't even care as you go sleep tonight. That's the difference between you and me.

that's my point. If Mike Ashley took over after Vichai he'd have spent more

How so?

Copy cat!  I put this in the Top/Brendan out thread!

 

Answer- we would want his head in a pike.

It would be like Boris being prime minister

My main issue with Top is... Where's Top?

 

[Collymore]

He needs to speak out. Only really heard from him through the programme notes in the first game of the season. 

 

Needs to clarify what's happened and his plans to fix it.

I wouldn't call 2 European qualifications, 1 FA cup (in 3 full seasons) and investing 100m in infrastructure a complete disaster, although if the club gets relegated this season that could change things drastically!

....I sense a kabbadi style duel...

[Fox92]

I wouldn’t call it a disaster but I’d certainly question the investment in the team.

Based on What? Newcastle fans moan that Mike Ashley took out more than he ever invested and the published accounts show not a penny of owner investment in Newcastle in the previous 10 years before he sold up and he took dividends payments out

Before the Saudi's took over, a six year net spend since our PL winning season.

 

Mike Ashley's Newcastle United: -175m
Vichai/Top's Leicester City:  -140m

In Mike Ashley's sort of category. Want him to prove me wrong but every passing week makes me more sure he's totally inept.
