Mike Ashley is quoted : ' I absolutely hate Spurs and always have done.'
Not sure Levy is that wild about Newcastle,but would he come out and say that ?

If Ken Bobbins, the Chairman of King's Lynn football club had said that it wouldn't have been reported anywhere.

As Mike Ashley, the chairman of an equally small club as King's Lynn, with an equally unimpressive trophy cabinet, has said it, I'll pay as much attention as Ken Bobbins had said it.

Not a lot, as Paul Daniels would say.

it was reported that ashley was a big spurs fan and that he was intrested in selling newcastle to buy us, hence him sticking his colours to his mast and confessing his utter dislike for us.

marketing 101, do not admit any previous or current loyalties to your competitors

But, to my knowledge Levy hasn't been accused of being a Newcastle fan, so he wouldn't need to say it. People have assumed Ashley is a Spurs fan due to his associateions with Paul Kemsley. Therein lies the difference.

That said, he didn't need to use such vitriol to put the matter to bed.

You are out of order there MattyP, I know you are upset but to compare Newcastle with Kings Lynn is just unacceptable.






Kings Lynn have won more tropheys than Newcastle in the last 50 years :grin:

To be fair to him, i would hate a club that signed Woodgate and Modric from under my nose.

Oh why did he have to go and say that?!! I held Newcastle in such high regard before that comment?!!

To be totally honest I.D.G.R.A about anything that fat lump of Deluded Geordie Lard has to say about us. Go and count your trophies that the great club you now call home have won in the past...what is it 50 years?...

Back already?
