SUPERTOON

All he's done is report what the Staveley camp have been saying? I’m just not believing any journalist ever again after this saga.

No offence to George but I don’t believe a word he says anymore.

At the sports direct arena? Would be fitting

Mauriss will be in charge before the season starts

Absolutely nothing, there isn’t a chance she comes back from this imo.

Can’t the NUST release the letter they wouldn’t show us now ?

Make sure your fridge works

Said it weeks ago this is what the premier league was waiting for. Anyways that’s me done and completely out of this club and football. Been a member 17 years but will be deleting my account and giving up on this club.

If Ashley was holding it up and if exclusivity had ran out we would have heard from the Saudis or PCP, because the NDA wouldn’t be in place anymore.

It ends when the PL make a formal decision. I just cannot see the buyers giving up. Not after the time, effort and money that's gone into this. The ridiculous thing is that it seems the premier league have absolutely no obligation to make one at all if they choose not too.

I said a while back I think they are delaying it in purpose in the hopes the Saudis pull out, I’m more convinced than ever this is the case. I simply don’t see how it ever goes through.

NUFC360 usually post the source. Where's this from? Mark Douglas

Until the next set of questions after the next letter or new evidence.

Forest ??

They'll have to get it legally watertight to accept or reject the deal. I'd imagine they are shitting themselves realising their test wasn't fit for purpose and was really just for show. at the same time how incompetent do you have to be to be on the verge of somehow failing the fit and proper person test there's literally only one way they could fail it and somehow they're making it worse for themselves by banning bein sports making it so that the prospective owners have no legal way to watch their own club on tv in SA There is nothing in the O&D test that states the prospective new owner must be able to watch the PL in their home country. its not exactly a sign of good faith to ban the premier league rights holders in your region while your trying to buy a premier league club, gives the wrong impression It's a better one than allowing it via piracy, especially when they are unable to bid at the moment. But them banning it increases the likelihood of piracy.

They have had 15 weeks to do so.

Exactly this.

If the PL have received a nudge from the government to get this done and keep the Saudis trigger happy with their cash in this country, then PIF have played it perfectly. PL just stalling but they know this has to go through from pressure above. The government can’t tell the premier league to pass it imo. How can they influence them in anyway really ?

I honestly think it’s as simple as the Saudis are simply refusing to do what the prem have asked and as such it’s a complete stalemate which suits the league as they hope it eventually fizzles out.

Why would match going fans give up this time, the one time it isn’t Ashley’s fault ?

Anyone still think this is going to happen ? My thoughts are that the league have told the Saudis what they have to do to get it passed and the Saudis aren’t willing to do so.

Assuming that Qatar know as little as us, while there has seemingly been no 'yes' decision given, it seems perfectly logical for them to continue to put out their propaganda. They'll be thinking that there is still a chance to influence the PL. Probably is still a chance to be fair.

Currently he can't even do that though, not for one second do I think he is genuine anyway in buying the club Yeah that’s what I was getting at like it’s irrelevant all the charm offensive if he actually had the money.

A charm offensive would be irrelevant, you pay the money and you can own the club.

Should be an exciting end to the season now
