Newcastle in the last 5 years have surprisingly made the most profit in the transfer market. Newcastle have sold more than they have purchased which makes you start to suspect Ashley's motives.
However, when Ashley took over he made it cear that the club was debt ridden and after Keegan's departure it was chaotic on and off the pitch.
"One of the reasons that the club was so in debt when I took over was due to transfer dealings caused by managers moving in and out of the club," Ashley once said.
"Every time there was a change in manager millions would be spent on new players and millions would be lost as players were sold."
With relegation, Newcastle declared a further loss of 35m pounds and thngs could only get worse. Ashley has put his foot down and is planning to stabilise the clubs finances but at what cost is what most fans will ask?
Quality players are being sold rather than being kept a hold off. Yes, they are worth much more than the Smiths and Xiscos but is selling our best players a smart thing to do to try and balance the books?
It would seem as though Newcasle will be a selling club untill the 150m loan is cleared and untill then we can only hope we remain in the Premier League.
But thats just how it seems and i wouldn't blame the fans if they felt this way. This window however, Newcastle seem to be aiming high but what's the motive one may ask?
Well a miracle would see us qualifying for Chamions League, but Ashley in the light of Newcastle's success will turn in more revenue.
Therefore, is it safe to say that Ashley will only do well financially if Newcastle succeeds on the Pitch? A win win situation for both Ashley and us Fans?
