Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley has rejected reports that he is set to
sell the Premier League club.
(老闆否認謠言說他要將球隊出售.)
Reports late last week suggested Newcastle had held informal discussions
with American private equity firm InterMedia Partners over the sale of
the club; however those reports were denied.
(最近謠言頗熱烈,先是來自美國的公司,後來又有來自美國公敵賓拉登家族......)
Fresh speculation then emerged claiming that a construction company owned
by the family of Osama bin Laden were considering a bid, but the claims
were rebuffed by both parties.
And, in a bid to end the recent speculation, Ashley has insisted he has
no plans to sell the Magpies.
He told the Evening Standard:
"That (the rumour of a sale) is not true."
Ashley did admit that he is seeking investors, adding:
"I would say that I am keen to have partners in Newcastle. That's a very
expensive seat I sit in."
(老闆表示謠言他將把球會出售那不是真的,但他傾向有投資者進駐)
On the link with The Saudi Binladen Group (SBG), Ashley said:
"I think I'll start with people from Newcastle, not in some cave in
Afghanistan."
(合作夥伴他希望是來自當地的Newcastle人而不是來自阿富汗的洞窟...
cave.....-_- 我實在很怕到時候人家不爽來炸球隊...
另外,誰來建議老闆他應該去找牧羊人投資 :PPP)
SBG, whose chief executive is Osama's half-brother, Bakr bin Laden, and
was founded by their father, Sheikh Mohammed bin Laden, have long-since
severed all ties with their infamous relative.

從老闆入主之後一年多傳聞這麼多多半也跟他的上市公司Sports Direct
經歷了成立以來營利最差的一年也有關.
他最近接受訪問主要目的也是為了要讓投資者對Sports Direct保持信心.
在訪談中才會順道提及了最近圍繞著Newcastle的事.
'It's a pretty good result in all honesty,'
'I think last year we were on the Titanic and still dancing with the
band. This year will be different,'
