My whole point is that if you put a valuation that's "way over the top" on a club (or anything, like a car, remember?) I cant consider you to be committed to selling it no matter what you say on Skysports. At no point have I said things couldnt be different now. I just questioned the rewriting of history.

How's your asking 5000 for a 500 pound car theory coming along? Get back to me when you understand the difference between a theory and a metaphor. If you seriously think Ashley has been an active and serious seller for years then be my quest but I think you find yourself pretty alone in that corner. Because nobody has matched his price, not rocket science but seems a bit hard for you to understand. Unbelievably naive. It's incredibly naive and it just shows some people will believe pretty much anything Ashley wants. Wait and see and I'm going to love it when this takeover happens Wait and see You really don't understand what people are talking about here at all do you? If he ends up selling the club now then how exactly does it prove he has tried to sell the club for years? It's you who said he wasn't a willing seller all I said is that his value for the club was never previously met and that he wouldn't until it was met. If he ends up selling at the price being said this will show what I said was right i.e. his value of the club has been met and he is now selling, dear me it really isn't hard you know The conversation was about his whole time here not just about this summer. You have no idea about the terms he is willing to sell with now do you? 1) Things might have changed because his other business interest and he's prepared to make a deal he previously wasnt. 2) He might have finally found someone who is willing to pay "over the market price" for the club. I think the most telling sign about his willingness to part with the club has been the time it has taken to get to a stage where we are now. Just repeatedly shouting about no one paying him his asking price doesnt prove he has been realistic or truthful about his intentions to sell before. E: Maybe thats enough about this now. You think he has been trying to sell the club for years or whatever time. I dont. Let's hope he's selling it now regardless of what his intentions have been in the past.

Well done sherlock.

:lol: Poor Mike!! He's clearly tried so hard too. 10 years of trying to sell us? And nobody until now has matched his valuation it's not rocket science you know I like how the narrative has suddenly changed just because everyone is desperate to believe this is happening. We've talked about how there might be a reason why its taken him this long to sell, as in his valuation is unrealistic. We've talked about him inserting clauses in potential takeovers about SD advertisement etc. Now he's suddenly a willing seller who has spent a lot of money trying to get rid of the club for ages. See that's where (some) people are not getting it. It doesn't matter what the support or other bodies think is the realistic valuation for the club, it's what Ashley as the current owner of the club thinks is realistic. If nobody matches that valuation he won't sell. As I said it's not rocket science. I think you're the one not getting it. If I have a car worth about 500 pounds and I'm saying I'll sell it for 5 000 pounds would you say I'm a willing seller trying to get rid of my car? e: Just to be clear the point im disputing is that he has been truthful in his attempts to sell the club. He has had no intention to sell unless someone offered insane money for it. Maybe things have changed now because of his other business interests, who knows.

NO PUKKI NO PARTY Finland 2-0 Bosnia Pukki x2 Premierleague get ready

Sad but I think Penn knows his shit based on his record. Kind of expected but still hurts to have been so close

Thank God something positive from NE journos. I mentioned before how all the media outlets are stonely death quiet. Think they might have just realised that this is atually serious and is happening. What’s the logic here? I dont get it. Quiet because they realised its happening? Whats the idea from a journalist’s perspective?

Or maybe the sign picture was taken a year or three ago.

It's not like Ashley would be paying for it personally either. It's the club's money whoever the owner is Exactly.

If they are changing them to electronic boards it would be something that has been planned and budgeted well in advance. Why would they put a stop to it just because someone is potentially buying the club?

The only reason I'm a bit sceptical of that is that I cant believe someone would be brave/crazy enough to share that in a way that makes them easily recognisable

Its pretty obvious its not fake so maybe move past that now.

Sooo, you guys think using umbrellas is stupid?

That cant be fucking real

You mean this? "I’m hopeful for a bit more clarity/optimism in the next few days, albeit separate from this bid"

We think he can read like most of us.

You can bet your ass SD advertisement is in any deal.

So Joselu reads the newspapers. Good to know.

Can we just agree that there's no reason something is more likely to happen today than on a random Friday a month or two from now

Lets just stick to facts eh? Read what I put before it ;D "ill stick to what i know thanks" and then make your own judgements about the situation just like everyone else Seems a strange way to go about for someone pestering everyone about their opinions.
