SUPERTOON

Bit of a misleading headline. Of course they are investigating it. It’s literally the whole point of this test.

Wonder which paper/journalist has the 10pm exclusive tonight about the takeover and the next letter of complaint

Swear the local journalists have had more negative articles about our possible new owners than Ashley.

What would they have asked the government about ?

Maybe worth another post

Most journalists are in agreement saying they don’t think this will be an issue but obviously until any announcement we are all in limbo.

Since the checks have been ongoing since April 9th it would surely be safe to assume anything that was a potential problem such as this would have already been bought up pretty quickly

Caulkin says he doesn’t know is this will effect the deal

I’m starting to convince myself that ? Ashley knew all along it would fail at this stage and still pockets £17 million

We need confirmation before we go insane with all hose stories

We are going to get stories like this now till whenever this reaches a conclusion. On the plus side I can’t see how the bidders won’t have seen this as a possible question to overcome before agreeing everything so surely won’t be an issue

He'll leave with a nice payout I'm sure. Doubt he'll be that bothered. Won’t be that much, he was the ,lowest paid managing director by far in the league

Joined in April and that’s his only tweet

Don’t think I could take it lasting much longer ?

Coutinho supposedly close to Chelsea, we better hurry up and get this done so we can hijack it.

I read something about Poch has to pay them if he works in England again this season.

As others have said , the premier league can’t block it over anything like that. Only the government can and that won’t happen.

Jesus, waiting for this to collapse then

Who is he

I’ve just read the article it kind of reads as if Ashley had given them a deadline of May before all of this happened as in till may to show they were genuinely wanting to do a deal.
