Brighton boss lecturing Newcastle United on ownership - You couldn't make it up nufc
Brighton boss lecturing Newcastle United on ownership – You couldn’t make it upInteresting to hear what Paul Barber, the Brighton and Hove Albion CEO and Deputy Chairman, had had to say during this international break.
“If you take that meritocracy away if you take that dream away, then you’re completely changing everything all of us have grown up with in this country and I don’t agree with that.“I don’t think necessarily there is a way in which state ownership forces that to happen, but we have just got to be careful that we don’t lose our competitive nature, from the top of the pyramid to the bottom because that’s what we all love.
The two clubs were promoted together in 2017, Rafa Benitez and his side pipping Chris Hughton’s team on the final day of the season for the second tier final. That 2017/18 season saw Newcastle United have a £178.5m turnover and Brighton £139.4m, the south coast club banking over £39m less. Indeed, in the nine transfer windows and four and a half Premier League years before the new NUFC owners came in on 7 October 2021, the relative spends on new signings were roughly £300m Brighton and Newcastle United just over £200m.Actually, no. Newcastle United and Mike Ashley were the ones selling players and generating cash after that 2017 promotion, with Perez, Mitro, Merino and Thauvin pulling in over £75m just for that quartet.
On the one hand I would say fair play to him, a fan living his dream and financing this relative success for the small club he supports.Amidst claims of state ownership due to the Saudi Arabia PIF 80% stake, the new / current Newcastle United owners have supported the rescue and turn around of NUFC with around £200m invested by them in total since initially buying the club. That is hundreds of millions more than Tony Bloom has supported / financed / propped up Brighton with.
