Profitable Group states interest

Profitable Group have issued a statement on their official website stating their interest in purchasing Newcastle United Football Club

The Singapore Based Profitable Group

The statement read:

"The Profitable Group can confirm that it has expressed an initial interest in acquiring Newcastle United. A preliminary discussion with the representatives appointed to handle the sale of the club has been held but contrary to some reports no direct talks have been held with either the Owner, Mike Ashley, or the Chairman, Derek Lambias.

The Group consider the leaking of The Group's interest in this matter unfortunate, and as supporters of Newcastle United seek only to serve in the best interests of the cluib, the fans and the local community.

The Group will not be making any further comment at the present time."

Now, we know that Profitable Group are one of the companies that wish to purchase NUFC, and the statement by Derek Llambias yesterday has underlined the problem that has been facing NUFC in Mike Ashley's reign: the failure to communicate.

For the good of the club, we hope that the sale will go through soon so that we can concentrate on the season ahead.

Comments Welcome.
