So #NUFC say takeover rejected & are exploring legal action.

PL tell @martynziegler they did not formally reject bid & see parts of statement as defamatory.

Spoke to senior PIF source just now. Refused to say bid is "dead" but admits they've NOT retabled offer since withdrawing https://t.co/csRYPp2Nvr
