Yet they are favourites tonight. -
Dear NUST My advice to you all, is to make sure your fridge works. Best wishes Richard Masters The Premier League You're going to need a drink when I tell you the deal is off

Could be the reason for the delay It's become a p!55!ng contest That’s just another rehash of last weeks news Yip just Hopes article rehashed, but quite amusing that Saudis are saying they were e mailing wrong account. You couldn’t make this shit up, I’m convinced this will be turned into a movie. It's clearly a parody of the Tories claiming they didn't take part in the EU procurement of PPE because the EU had the wrong email address. They have listened to the EPL's request to operate to Western standards.

Yup. It would be his Pardew finishing 5th moment. or his winning the cup with Palace moment

His follow up tweet is just fucking nuts. Hopefully he was pissed when he did it because its just bizarre. He's just saying they are lying about the piracy and attempting to rewrite history.

Nothing wrong in letting a future friend save face as they back down.

TBH I really think it was, as one of the major complaints by BT sport, sky, BBC and bein was that they couldn’t get justice in the Saudi courts, they now have put it in black and white by a government agency how anyone can now do that. It seems the EPL et al didn't need lawyers, they just had to email the friendly Saudi government. Of course that won't be necessary in future as Saudi Arabia will soon own all the key sporting rights.

They have had it for a month via Qatar. I think they will have been pressing via PIF for the full closure of BeoutQ and access to the Saudi justice system to any future piracy cases. Saudi movement here seals the deal; in their statement the Saudis have committed to conform to IP laws and protocol. It is not hard to imagine that as part of the ODT PIF agree to support the fight against piracy and to use their power to ensure compliance in KSA.

Yup - it's long been my fear that all of these positive noises were coming from one source. Could easily be misguided/wrong/badly advised. Disagree they’ll have a good idea from the league’s lawyers who they’ll have been dealing with on a daily basis. Yes it has to go to the board, but this is obviously complex and I can’t see them going against the legal advice. Either where waiting for a remedy to tv situation, or they’ll just pass it based on PIF being a separate legal entity. Hmmm. Well, it's all guesswork but I'd have said if they were 'good to go' and 'expecting an announcement over the next 24 hours' and 'cans in the fridge' then I'd say they were given a bum steer by the Lawyers as that was over a month ago. The TV situation and the seperate entity argument have been there since day 1 and yet the deal still seems nowhere near being done. I'd say it's entirely reasonable to be doubting the validity of the prior positive noises coming from the buyers side tbh. I see where your coming from, but I genuinely think they were given the nod. However, that Monday news broke of further evidence being submitted. Now everything subsequently points to this being the WTO draft report. I genuinely believe it is the fact this has become so public has unnerved the board. I believe legally this has the go ahead from lawyers, however board wanted more info re piracy under pressure from Bein. Now where in a situation where solution to keep all parties happy is taking place, hence confidence of buyers. We’ve always been told it’s an ongoing discussion. I’m convinced it’ll be sorted but understand doubts. See what you're saying but if there's any way that their lawyers have either approved it or word has leaked that they can't see a reason to deny it then you'd imagine the buyers would be pressurising the f*** out of the PL who now seem keen to use the leverage as much as possible. That leverage disappears the minute the buyers know the PL cannot legally stand in their way so, for me, I'm not that confident but hope you are right obviously. Though this doesn’t give us answers, it just reinforces my belief that ongoing discussions will eventually result in a resolution. I don’t think we should underestimate Staveley and the Reubens part in this. They are influential, respected and high profile British business people. Not least that the Reuben brothers sponsored Boris Johnson's leadership campaign.

Ideally Sheffield United will pay top dollar for any players we deem surplus.

I thought the Reuben's were just in the mix coz they owned real estate in Newcastle. Now I understand they pay into the Boris political fund and I feel a whole in lot more optimistic.
