Think only 3 or 4 people on here still think it’d going to happen to be fair I still there’s a fair chance Almost certain he was including you in the 3 or 4. It's fairly obvious who those posters are.

It was, a like joke.

Fernandinho's replacement?

Gonna be saying we are great supporters but they couldn't get a deal done, isn't it? Given how the club came out to confirm Rafa was leaving a week before his contract ended, I’m of the opinion any bad news would be broken by the club first. Yep, it was Ashley who ended the talks with Staveley, then she followed it up with her interview with Caulkin. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/newcastle-takeover-off-mike-ashley-amanda-staveley-owner-walks-away-talks-a8162916.html A source close to Ashley has said: “It is only right to let the fans know that there is no deal on the table or even under discussion with Amanda Staveley and PCP. Attempt to reach a deal have proved to be exhausting, frustrating and a complete waste of time.” Yes but BZG are running out of time. The club is a shambles, no manager, no coaching staff, 1 striker, players start pre-season tomorrow. 5 weeks till transfer window closes. They may decide to pull the plug because it’s too much of a risk Ashley will point out that we have 3 strikers. How many do we need?

Coming into his last year of contract too. July 2021 it runs out.

£22m wasn't it?

You're comparing Rio Ferdinand to Harry McGuire without taking into account the fact that McGuire will never be as good as Ferdinand.

Aye BZG are gonna be delighted to pay £350m for the club minus a couple of its biggest assets I can see it both ways and I don't have a clue what way it will go. Being reported that they activated the release clause so everyones hands tied in relation to the Perez deal, neither BZG or Ashley can do anything about it There is no bzg Eh? As in takeover isn’t an option

Let's see if he had buyout clause first because if he did he had no choice but to sell I think you are the only one that still believes in the takeover He’s not had a clause of £30m man ffs. Let it go You don't know I don't know. You don't know if the takeover is happening and I don't know Let's just wait and see 'ffs' grow up man Me grow up? You are the one that’s mentioned the Perez release clause and the club not been able to stop it (not even sure that’s accurate) about 5 times ffs Think you want to look at Keith Downie's twitter Bishop’s cash all over that Of course it is Wow you pick and choose like nobody else man No I just go by what's being put out and what we know has happened. I have not once 'picked and chosen' anything and have went along not wavering on anything based on what's actually happened. Only time will tell and we will know soon anyway You still expect a statement either way? I don’t.

We’ll sign kenedy just to cheer everyone up

Weird that back in 2016 it was so high.......... Yeah it was even weirder that once it was activated nobody had an option Oh wait, it’s gospel? I thought sky reported what Bishop wants?

Feel sorry for the poor kitty getting a wedge of cash pushed up it’s arse.

Again unless there is a buyout clause and I think there will be, when has Ashley not only got a market value for a player or exceeded it. He NEVER let's players go on the cheap as mentioned before Carroll, Cabaye, Sissoko, Wijnaldum for examples He was pissed off cabaye went cheap

Stop doing it to yourselves

We won’t be worth 250 mil in the championship Why not? Bet we are. TV money would mean an instant reduction in valuation. This valuation is what buyers take to finance houses to back the deal. The core assets of the club are simply not worth £250m without TV income. Not a chance. How much then? If he could take out £150m this year, would he then accept £150m plus free advertising next? Fuck only knows. I'd say £150m would be the tops he'd get if we were a Championship side tbh. So £300m with the knowledge he fucked the club over Quite the risk if he doesn't get a buyer at £150m though. Can’t think of many other alternatives to what he’s doing

I’ve heard the new owners wanted to bring in their own number 10

Unless there is a release clause in his contract that has been activated by Leicester Exactly why can't people understand this and in all probability there is, meaning that if there is f*** all anyone can do takeover happening or not as it's been activated Because there’s no way he has a £15m release clause when nobody has ever tried to sign him for that. You don't know what his release clause may be - remember Perez signed his new contract in 2016 so a 15 million release clause would be right at that time. And up to the second half of this season I certainly wouldn't have said he was worth more than 15 million either. Let's say he doesn't have a buyout clause then there is no way in hell that Ashley would let him go for such a small fee and he has proved this a few times with the likes of Carroll, Cabaye, Sissoko, Wijnaldum he doesn't let players go on the cheap if they have a market value. 2015 he signed his contract btw. No he didn't btw it was 2016 So his new 6 year contract which expires in 2021 was signed 5 years before it expires? Clever that. Obviously Perez disagrees with you according to his twitter page when he signed it Yeah already apologised above.

Ahh ok, it was January 2016, only 5.5 years. Apologies. Still, no chance this had a release clause of £16m
