Sunderland AFC fans have poked more fun at their relegated rivals after Newcastle United were put up for sale by owner Mike Ashley – on email.
However, asking for replies by email meant the club was inundated with joke bids, many from Black Cats supporters.
Offers included 12p and a Mars bar, £4.50 and a half eaten bag of Haribo star mix, a game of twister (still boxed) and pristine vinyl copies of The Laughing Gnome by David Bowie and £142, with £140 cashback on completion.
A club statement released yesterday said: "The board of Newcastle United can today confirm that the club is for sale at the price of £100million.
"Interested parties should contact Newcastle United at To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. for further details."

Serves him right, 100m for a championship club that will have no players next season is stupid.

Newcastle owner Mike Ashley has had offers of £10, Oasis tickets and a Curly Wurly after inviting offers for the Tyneside outfit by e-mail. The Magpies have been given a £100m price tag.
Better offer tbh.

Newcastle fooled by Wearside hoax: Sunderland fan made up £150m rescue

The sale of Newcastle United reached a farcical new low as it emerged one of the leading contenders to buy the club is in fact a hoaxer.
The mysterious North-East businessman who claimed he was a millionaire Newcastle supporter prepared to launch a £150million rescue buy-out from owner Mike Ashley is a Sunderland fan.
'Rick Parkinson' was pictured under Tyne Bridge earlier this week as he announced his intention to buy the troubled club who were put up for sale following their relegation from the Barclays Premier League last month.
He claimed he was worth more than £250m after making his fortune in textiles and offshore investments and that his first job would be to appoint Alan Shearer as manager at St James' Park.
Parkinson duped Newcastle officials, BBC 5 Live, talkSport, Sky Sports and local media outlets after saying he would head up a five-man consortium of local businessmen putting together the takeover package. That consisted of a £90m bid, with a further £30m going on new transfers this summer and an additional £30m going into the restructuring of the club.
But it transpires the Northumberland-based entrepreneur is Richard Parker, a lifelong Sunderland fan, who says he works in the 'entertainment industry'.
Parker said: 'It's all friendly banter. I'm sure the majority of Magpie fans will see the funny side but I'm afraid it is something they're going to have to put up with for a while.
'We haven't had a great deal to shout about in the last 16 years or so at Sunderland, but this summer has, without doubt, made up for all those years of hurt. Newcastle's plight, as difficult as it is for their fans, is music to our ears.
'We could easily have gone down on the final day as well, but that makes it all the funnier for Sunderland fans and nobody can really blame us for milking it for as long as we possibly can.
'I remember a demoralising 4-1 defeat at home by Newcastle about three years ago, when their fans came to the Stadium of Light and taunted us on our own patch. We would have done the same had it been the other way round and, likewise, they would have taunted us had we gone down last season and they'd stayed up.
'We're only doing what they would have done, and have done for a good few years.'
Parker's revelations cap a miserable week for Newcastle supporters, who faced ridicule after Ashley announced the sale on the club's website, provoking bids from a number of Sunderland supporters who made derisory offers.
Got to love that.
