So we're all in agreement that Robbo is really Uncle Frank Farina right?Quote:

REPORTS emerged last week that energy drink giant Red Bull was in the market for another football club, to go along with the New York Red Bulls, Red Bull Salzburg, RB Leipzig and Red Bull Brasil.
The organisation is linked to a £60million takeover of struggling English Championship club Leeds United, which has been on a financial precipice for years.
The comparisons between Leeds United and the Newcastle Jets are many, and as a Leeds fan, I know the troubles all too well.
Leeds is owned by Massimo Cellino, a millionaire, some say billionaire, who has faced corruption inquiries and tax problems, not unlike those faced by Jets owner Nathan Tinkler.
Cellino has sacked players mercilessly, one reportedly due to the fact he wore No.17 on his back, Cellino’s unlucky number, and he’s dismissed three coaches this season. Manager Neil Redfearn is also on the chopping block.
Leeds supporters have seen the club repeatedly underwhelm, with the quality of their squad evidence of their financial position.
Star players have been moved on and the money made hasn’t filtered into replacements. The club has been hemorrhaging money for years.
The English Football League has ruled Cellino is unfit to own the club after being convicted of tax fraud, which has led the Italian to entertain offers to sell, with Red Bull reportedly close to signing.

But I think their money could be better spent on our shores – £60million to land Leeds or they could land the Jets for nearly $6million.
Call me crazy (some of you will) but how many other offers would be on the table? Dundee United has held discussions, but whispers are that talks aren’t advanced.
From a business standpoint, it’s a pretty good opportunity for Red Bull as well.
The Jets already carry their colour scheme – red, blue and gold – and I’m already seeing numerous cross-promotion opportunities in the Jets name, given the energy drink also owns the Red Bull X-Fighters, in which Novocastrian Matt Hall races.
If it did want to change the name, to say Newcastle Red Bulls, I don’t see fans objecting.
The Hunter market also gives the brand a strong youth demographic, where their products are targeted, and with the region thriving on a love of extreme sports – a market that Red Bull practically runs these days – I’d say it’s a match made in heaven.
There might be questions about an energy drink maker owning a sports team – but we are now owned by a coal baron.
An alternative could be Football Federation Australia claiming ownership, but chief executive David Gallop has said the league doesn’t want to run a club, and its coffers only run so deep.
History shows there wouldn’t be significant cash on offer and the FFA may have more than just the Jets putting their hand out, with other clubs struggling to remain financially viable.
Ownership from a company such as Red Bull comes with pluses.
The Jets could tap into the group’s clubs all over the globe but the benefits will trickle to our underappreciated region that’s in need of an energy boost.
The brand has shown its desire to win and have put millions into the MLS franchise, securing Thierry Henry and our own Tim Cahill for the New York club in recent years.
Red Bull’s vast interest across world football could prove a sticking point in its attempt to secure Leeds United. European footballing governors UEFA have limited the number of clubs that any organisation can own on the continent.
It’s not an issue in Australia, and although history shows foreign ownership has mixed results here, the acquisition of Melbourne Heart by Manchester City has been positive.
Let’s get them to Newcastle and show them around.
How can they not fall in love with this city? A local hotel tour would be enough to convince them to sign. Vodka Red Bulls sell at a rate of knots every Friday and Saturday night.
Jokes aside, a buyer such as Red Bull doesn’t come knocking every day of the week.
Such a move may not just give football in the region wings, but it will give it a heartbeat once again.
Call it fantasy, but you know where to find me for my finder’s fee.

I know it's an opinion piece, but this could be a good option..
is your only reasoning for this 'Red Bull aren't Tinkler?'Quote:

Isn't Lake Macquarie quite close to securing a Redbull air race due to Matt Hall's connections here?

Plus if they wanted to do one in Australia Sydney Harbour would make a far superior location ie NYE Fireworks Sydney to Hobart etc etc
yep, the liberal candidate for charlestown wanted to make it happen, he didn't get in, but they jumped on it anyway.Quote:

Fans not caring if we have a name change..........sorry buddy, we do give a shit.
I can see benefits in Red Bull buying in.....not tinkler, connections to other clubs, money, pulling power, etc but there are also a lot of equally valid counter arguments.
Doesn't matter though, it won't happen.
Yeah, I thought I had read that the LMCC Councillors were in favour of it.Quote:

It's been to Perth beforeQuote:

Why? Kill the club off, rebrand it and let us remember the Jets we had when we were younger and not the farcical Knights rebranding that is dying right now.Quote:
