GOOD WORDS ON SKY SPORTS NEWS - IF HE WALKS THE WALK ASWELL AS HE TALKS THE TALK ! THINGS ARE ON THE UP.0
-
Not sure what people were expecting. Sounds as though they are here to stabilise and move forward in a well organised manner rather than just throwing millions and millions on nothing0

Deal was worth £50m apparently...0

any way people without SSN or CAFC player to see this interview?0
-
The "Swiss Link" is nothing more than a vehicle for recording the name of the new company for tax purposes. We won't be getting free bars of Toblerone.0
-
Impressed by MS. Down to earth, no wild promises but looking to go forward.0
-
Mr. Slater sounded measured and reasoned to me.
How it is going to pan out will become clear in the coming months....
Just glad the club is now currently "safe" in uncertain times for the time being. :-)0 -

people want him to walk already ;o)0 -
what would we do with millions in L1 anyway!!?
the way forward is to try increase the wagebill and attract players like Brighton have done.
Im happy that this guy seems to know what footballs about at a lower level and isnt some arab who hasnt got a scooby.0 -

Anyone know if the Blue Star companies associated with Michael Slater, are linked to the former sponsors of Newcastle United ?0
-
Seems to know what he wants, honest and realistic, looks like there will be at least some funds in January as well.0

I've just received a e-mail from a friend, who may or may not be in the loop.
He thinks that there is Dubai money in the background, and that Jimenez and Michael Slater are merely the front men.0 -

I could well believe this0 -

Download Veetle; you'll enjoy this if you don't usually have SSN. At the moment it's not on our takeover but it'll probably come round again. Yaaay.0 -

so looks like we are stuck with Parky then ;-)
Having not seen the interview on SSN it's difficult to form an opinion as the report on the OS is all waffle about Slater's previous. Seems like it's good news though.0 -
i think its a great deal looking forward to the season now and im sure jimenez and slater will push us onwards and in the future when wise comes in im up for that. good the richard murray stays involved0
-
WSS - that was my first reaction too...
A good batsman in his day - Test average of 43 and that was in the day when if you averaged 43 you were a very good batsman.0 -
I like the fact he sounds responsible like Murray "we will always live within our means", so doesn't sound like we'll go mad and do a Pompey. Also I think I would feel immoral if we achieved anything off the back of chucking millions of some Arab's oil money about0
-
Didn't Slater say that they would have to discuss things with the new owners?0

It does read like they're front men to me0 -
Isn't Slater a mate of Derek Trotter0
-
Could be true. Play down the .ot spending millions so we arent quoted loads for purchasing players!0

He did0 -
They have simply taken on the debt, not paid any money for the Club.
We are no further forward, there is no injection of funds, visible or promised.
Sit down with Phil and see what he needs............ is meaningless.
KEEP CALM
CARRY ON0
