No way the premier league back down, it will go to arbitration and they have got to be pretty confident of winning otherwise they wouldn’t have been the ones to suggest it.
Can’t forget how bad we actually played last week against Burnley despite the win, if West Ham create even half the chances they did this will be a comfortable defeat.
For me it’s a case of I don’t care anymore, I think the takeover is completely dead and Ashley is here for the foreseeable and asa result there is literally no point in the club anymore.
This news and the takeover being on don’t match, I think Ashley knows the takeover can’t happen and his legal team have told him the only thing he can get out of it is money. It’s the only possible explanation because if there was a chance he could sell the club he wouldn’t keep Bruce.
The most frustrating thing for me is that it’s still not too late, 2 points clear of the drop, game in hand, best players coming back and a 2 week international break, if he goes tonight we have a chance.
Be interesting to see how Fulham continue to play, I thought they where really poor last night and it was their first game with pressure on because people now feel they will/should get out of it and that changes everything I think.
Maybe the deal is agreed and signed that they takeover regardless of what league we are in because that is literally the only explanation I can think of as to why Bruce is still here.
