A Nigerian consortium wants to become the first African owners in the Premier League by purchasing Newcastle. Chris Nathaniel, CEO of the company handling the deal, says "the consortium of Nigerian entrepreneurs has so far contributed £350million to buy the club." Nathaniel then emailed* Newcastle owner Mike Ashley to make official his intentions:
From: Chris Nathaniel [cnathaniel@go.com]
To: cnathaniel@go.com
Dear Sir,
I wish to inform you of a business venture that I believe will be Fortune for the both of us. I am a wealthy businessman who has raised a Significant amount of money for a Premier League football club but now I am looking for a responsible beneficiary for these funds. We have heard from a reliable source that you are the kind of person we seek.
You will need to do no work. All we ask is a viable bank account so we can transfer the money. Then when the deal is complete we will contact you again.
Without your help we will never be able to realize our Dream of owning a Premier League football team. Your kindness will be remembered for generations. I understand this request is unusual but all Great deeds are.
Yours in trust,
Mr Chris Nathaniel
*This is satire. I wish the Nigerian consortium all the best in their attempts to make history.
