50/50 whether they will or won't? Sterling journalism. I can see why he's so well respected. What? Basically just saying he thinks its a coin flip.

I don't think the money needs to be transferred for it to be announced. Possibly not but I just want it done completely before I celebrate.

Would be good if it was approved today because then it might be just about possible to get the money transferred by Saturday.

Or Staveley and the Reubens are paying more for their 10% each? Technically possible but never going to happen, no way are they each going to pay 16.65% of the cost for 10% of the business.

Think it was posted earlier and the general opinion was that it wasn't genuine. Or not official at least. No idea myself though, hope its right.

Jesus, came back on here thinking everyone would be happy and excited and it's just full of furious posts. Hope it's not going to be constant arguments about the ownership going forwards. Should just all celebrate the fat fuck is gone.

Who fucking cares?! How can people still be reading this shite?? This fat cunt is shitting all over the club and it's fans and people are still wasting their time. Fuck it not me like In off.

No its played to perfection. Will be a short rolling contract, small wages.. all the hallmarks to give fans hope its short term and the takeover is still a possibility with an easy to shift manager. Reality is he has gone as cheap as possible and played a blunder to keep a few hopeful fans still hooked on the SDFC smack. Aye he has, he's gotten rid of a manager who would keep the club ticking along for no money spent. Then spent £4m to replace him with a alci loser who'll guarentee relegation and cost him £100m minimum. Definitely played a blunder, but thats the fat slug all over, top business man like.. Sooner everyone treats the entire club like the plague the better.

Most clubs don't pay for transfers up front and managers certainly won't expect large initial sums so this isn't a issue.

Even if a takeover happened late with no time to strengthen and we got relegated, I'd still love the season more than almost any under Ashley. At least I could support the club again, go to games ect. Right now my plan is to ignore everything to do with the club (except potential takeovers) while that piece of shit is still in charge.

You. Making a bid on eBay isn't agreeing a price, it's a bid on an auction site. The club isn't up for auction. The exact nature of the bid isn't relevant, a bid isn't limited to any specific situation such as a auction site. A bid is to offer a specific amount of money for something that's for sale.

I can make a bid on ebay and then refuse to buy the item, that doesn't change the fact I made a bid. If they've agreed a price for the potential purchase of the club that's a bid, or offer, or however to want to describe it. Otherwise when is the bid exactly? Even with a house you can pull out of the purchase after making an official offer.

The fucker is monumentally stupid.

Just because the TV money is more than the season ticket sales doesn't mean losing the season ticket sales won't have a big impact. It will. He’s likely just to sell even more and sign even less. Does it really matter though? While he's here the club doesn't matter at all, not IMO anyway, each to their own. Only thing I care about now is him gone, anything else (who we sign, who we sell, next manager, relegation ect) means fuck all IMO except how it relates to Ashley fucking off.

Was totally bizarre and a few had previously backed him on here as knowing him and that he was ok. I know I'm pro takeover, but would I f*** even think about faking stuff to try and get people to think something was happening What happened exactly?, missed this completely. EDIT: Seen it now, bizarre thing to do.

It doesn't seem pointless, it is pointless, stop talking about it. Stop giving a shit.

A multi billion pound company and its expensive lawyers don't just take some cockney wide boys word for things "you reckon all debt is gone eh Mr Ashley?, mint here's cash in hand"... They go through everything and have a singed legal agreement on what they're buying to the last detail.

VAR worked. The referee didn't. the decision was still wrong despite VAR so therefore VAR didn't work VAR isn't there to make the decision though, the ref has the final say. You can have every aid in the world but if the ref is as hopeless as that with video help, you need better refs. so therefore its a waste of time and money. I despise this system it disrupts the game and if its not even leading to the correct decision then whats the point of it existing Nothing can ever give us "the correct decision" every time. Most decisions in Football are open to interpretation, so its not possible to make them always go the way everybody in the world thinks they should. I mean people on here argue over decisions after seeing them 10 times each, in fact its rare to find people that agree even on the most black and white things. The only thing that can ever be achieved is to give people the best opportunity to make the right decision. The idea that VAR is a waste of time unless it makes refs perfect is fucking ridiculous.

I get the thinking behind the abuse, but Ashley has literally sat there and laughed at supporters in the ground giving him abuse. So would I counting all of that money that section in the ground has just given me. Turn up on match day without a ticket and give abuse outside the ground. Imagine a empty stadium with 50-60k outside instead for the entire matching doing nothing but abusing that fat cunts name. £30m down in season ticket cash, Sky would have more cameras outside the ground than in, meaning Sky money would drop. He'd be gone within a month, unfortunately its not going to happen.

Ok that's me done.

Sorry not going along with these conspiracy theories. Let's just wait until the 30th, but I honestly think that's a bit far fetched mind. It's not a conspiracy theory, it's a fucking good idea. Its a good idea to setup a group of people to buy your own club so you don't have to sell it to someone else? What are you on about man?

As much as Rafa is key atm I do agree with this. New owners could come in and appoint Mourinho he goes on to win the FA Cup or league people would forget about Rafa quickly Sacked while 16th with Chelsea Then wasted £400million at Man Utd sounds the perfect man for a Sheikh investment. I think everyone would rather have new owners and Benitez staying. But I also agree the most important thing has to be new owners. With Ashley here all a top manager like Rafa can do is continue to bail water out of the dilapidated and sinking ghost ship that is NUFC, he'll never be allowed to do anything more under this fat cunt. New owners with some kind of ambition are required for the club to really mean something again.

You claimed the club hadn't confirmed anything, then when you're shown to be wrong (again) you move to "well they're liars". Surely you can see why people aren't taking you seriously?

No, they just have no idea what's happening. They’ve been like that since the dawn of time and it never stopped them posting shit before. Agreed. They must’ve had hundreds of requests for comment today and not one of them has made mention of anything. Just seems odd tis all. Not beyond the realms of possibility that they’ve agreed to embargo themselves in exchange for access to a big story. If all is silent tomorrow too we know something is up If tomorrow is silent how would it be any different from the last 30 days He's talking about silence of journalists.

Additional income from that would be peanuts compared to all the TV money. Not if average prices increased and more expensive corporate facilities were added and taken up, which wouldn't be a problem if we showed ambition.
