Cowlin seems to think there's something being worked on in the shadows.

Other top clubs attract top players when they drop out of the champions league. We don't sign top players even when we're in it.
Compare Woolwich's transfer window when they finished 5th two years ago to ours when we finished 4th
We just don't have the desire or the will to succeed where it matters to most football fans. On the pitch. And you're just making excuses for it.
We are a very successful business though and that’s what really matters! :mickyarm:
 
I'm not against a takeover at all. I'm skeptical about her though. What did she actually achieve at Newcastle other than sourcing Saudi investors to enrich herself when she sold her stake?

Newcastle improved under them but their best achievement was Top 4. That's not the step we need to take as a club, we've done that repeatedly already.
Well that’s her mo

She corralled enough Saudi money to bailout Barclays during the financial crisis 2008 (they ultimately declined)

She’s of interest and she’s a great deal maker if you want Middle Eastern money

She lost to Barclays at the high ct recently . Ashley beat her as well. She had to borrow money to pay for her share in Newcastle and had to pay it back when they bombed her out.

2 years ago?

Jesus, Zinchenko, Viera, Trossard and Kiwor

We brought in Richarlison, Perisic, Bissouma, Udogie, Spence.


You're also forgetting that in the Jan window prior we bought in Kulusevski and Bentancur to actually help get us 4th... remind me who they bought that Jan?

she brokered a deal to bailout Barclays. At the last minute they took Qatar money

She has ever since taken Barclays to court accusing them of deceit

The judge actually ruled in her favour but refused to pay out the ‘loses’ because ultimately they were unrealised profits

No real clue what happened with Ashley … wasn’t that she slagged him off and broke an nda?

I’ve never heard of her losing any money brokering the Newcastle deal… says she’s looking to do more premier league deals

Of course she borrowed the money

She’s a successful well connected financiar capable of raising huge funds from the Middle East
