Prelude
I am looking to do my own 'Chairman Story' where by I will be writing up the story of myself as the new Owner/Chairman of Newcastle United. I have loved the club since I can remember and whilst I have many fond memories, as of yet I don't really have much to be proud of as a supporter.
As is common knowledge for any football fan, Mike Ashley, the owner of Sports Direct, has been the main stake holder in the club since 2007 and has since acquired full ownership. During this time he has made many decisions which have been very unpopular with the Toon Army and has caused many of the contingency to cry for him to sell up and f**k off. His desire to make Newcastle United a profitable business, whilst a sensible choice, has meant he has lost touch with what it means to be a football club and not just a business. The transfer policy has seen them become a 'Selling Club' and this has seen them suffer as a result with relegation in the 2008-2009 season, the first time they had dropped out of the topflight since 1989.
As a very young and even more successful businessman, I have invested in the club and purchased Mike Ashley's full stake and will take over ownership of the club. Despite my endless pit of money, I will not be pumping it all into the club at once, I do have rules I have set myself and I do have principles I would like to stick to as the proud Chairman Newcastle United..
Rules
Maximum cash injection of £15m Per season
Quarterly Accounts Review - Must remain profitable
I am allowed to influence transfers with the following stipulations:
* Not allowed to exceed the transfer budget
* Player must be interested in move/Must be realistic
* Transfer value must be met unless transfer listed
* If player is not listed, and additional 10-50% must be paid on top of valuation depending on form, reputation etc
Wages must be 15% current wage.
I can sack/employ the club staff as I see fit with the following stipulations:
* Must be realistic
* When sacking staff member, remainder of contract must be deducted from balance.
* When signing staff member, compensation must be paid.
Facilities may be upgraded at a cost (realistic cost to be decided as and when needed)
New contracts with current squad members may be negotiated with the following stipulations:
* Wages must be met plus 15% increase unless over the age of 32.
A realistic signing fee must be deducted from club bank balance
Chairman may increase/decrease transfer/wage budget as seen fit.
(All of the above will be done via the Editor and In-Game Editor. If you have any suggested rules to make it more interesting, please let me know)
I also will have a few personal traits I would like to adhere to as a Chairman:
English players will be my preference
* Foreign players will be signed only when deemed necessary
I will have a keen interest in youth development
Your facilities will be upgraded over a realistic time period
I will only sack a manager when I feel absolutely necessary.
* If relegated I will only sack manager If I feel they are responsible
I would like to attain European football within 3 years
I would like to become a regular 'Top 4' within 10 years.
Well that is pretty much all for my intro and I will begin with my first updates shortly, I hope you all enjoy. For anyone wondering my 'Collecting Trophies For Fun' story will be continuing, I just wanted something to break up the story so I do not get bored of winning all the time
All feedback/advice is welcome.
