As NE27 says you've got some solid ideas that could definitely be put to good use in ordinary circumstances, but isn't today's meeting via Zoom? Suppose that could make it easier for the PL to palm off any challenging line of questioning? Only if you let them. I was fewming for weeks afterwards. But apparantly being crap at your job isnt unlawful. I reckon they might have access to the mute button though Yeah this was where I was coming from. Get a little out of line and I'm sure they'll mute or have 'technical troubles'. Which would make them 'Unreasonable' or 'Not interested in the concerns of NUFC fans' or any other number of things depending on the spin. The meeting isn't about the takeover though. It just has a 15 minute spot. It's perfect reasonable that they move on from it after the 15 minutes.

He's a mixture of both but better than neither as individuals. Reckon they'll rotate the 3 of them (knowing Bruce he'll play all three and drop Almiron)

There's a "why AC Milan want Jeff Hendrick" video on youtube which is a bit weird. Some sliding tackles, overhit crosses etc. Looks about our level.

Is he a purple?

I do. Regarding this failed bid or back with a new one?

Anyone think we'll ever hear from Staveley again?

The most important question for me in all of this is "Has club legend Michael Chopra played us?" That's all that matters now.

He is though. I hate him but he's world class.

Has Penn posted since Luke went on holiday?

Good point well made

Brewster looks decent, but since when did we change to the Sunderland model?

Eh? He'd just been to a European final and won manager of the year. I’d completely forgotten about Fulham getting to that final.

I’m 100% adding either Staveley or Ashley to one of their photos tomorrow and tweeting it.

Have we got this one over the line?

I'm fairly confident the guy on the right is photoshopped in to that photo. Why because he is in a different chair? Around his glasses and forehead is suspicious like. Zoom in and most of the pixelation around his head looks completely wrong. Whatever it is, it shows they love a bit of publicity. It makes no sense why they would want to buy the club.

Regardless, they’re clearly all ignoring him.

Did they run out of chairs and have to borrow some? Bidding £280m so they had some change left over to buy ronaldo. Good plan.

It’s fine, we’ve all walked away

Palace, benteke to us

Good idea Block Penn[/member] first otherwise they’ll be on to us

It's absolute bullshit. More than happy to get some real bidders though. You know, the ones who don't do it through the media.

But it's been made plainly obvious that the PL won't pass them - even if it takes 18 months to subsequently fail them. It doesn't matter how much PIF want it to happen, it's quite clear it won't. Not really if arbitration find that they’re a separate entity, it would be difficult for them to find grounds to reject using current o & d. The PL are looking to absolve themselves of any responsibility, if it goes to arbitration they can say to bein we had no choice but to approve. Ok but even so, PIF refused that (assuming that they didn't want to have to wait 18 months) so it's not happening.

I'd argue Mahrez has been class this season too, and Foden when we've seen him. They just need better defenders and a replacement for Jesus who isn't good enough for them.

100% definitely not. It's gone quiet, but there's no way Staveley, Reuben's and PIF have completely walked away. Not a chance. My personal belief is this PR exercise regarding the new takeover rumours is an attempt to push PIF to get back to the table and offer the PL what they want. I can understand the logic but personally, I think it's just wishful thinking and that it's quiet because there's nothing more to be said. In saying that, there is the NUST meeting with the PL which should be interesting to hear about. Seemingly it’s a meeting with supporters trusts of another 5 or 6 clubs primarily to talk about getting fans back in to stadiums. I suspect any NUST questions about the takeover will be batted away Takeover is on the agenda. Already confirmed.
