Fat Mike’s tapped him up as the new face of Sports Direct United.

Bit left field and a total conspiracy theory but could this be a positive step for the takeover? There could be a bit of a Mexican stand-off in the background. Wraith and his pal seem to be a bit disappointed but I just don’t get it. We were never going to get a quick decision on jurisdiction without a hearing and it’s going in to summer recess. So maybe on the face of it it’s doom and gloom as people now believe PIF are going to walk. Maybe Ashley will now go nuclear on the premier league and all of the ‘evidence’ will come out via the press and other preferred media channels. Maybe the sheer threat of it will force the premier league to do a deal? Maybe I’m just clutching at straws. I do wonder though why this hasn’t been an option. If there’s any evidence of illegal wrongdoing the powers that be would be compelled to investigate and bring criminal charges if any complaints/evidence came to light

If he sold the Reubens and Amanda their 10 percent now and put Amanda in charge she would definitely make a better job of running the club compared to Penfold

Just had a message saying he’s having a medical at Sunderland. Not ITK and could well be bullshit

Grand old duke of York.

Cos that’s the Burnley way!

She said piracy and human rights etc weren’t the issue. It’s the separation stuff and she was very careful with her words around it. I think this goes through….. at some point. Probably not for the start of the season though

White Audi = off for a campachoochoo with Geoff Linton and a pow wow

It’s the Issa brothers who recently bought Asda https://www.retailgazette.co.uk/blog/2021/05/issa-brothers-now-castores-biggest-external-investors/

There is such a thing but in this instance it’s clearly a load of bollocks. You generally don’t find out until after the fact there was an embargo in place

Could the verdict be damning though? This is simply about whether the case goes ahead? Surely anything other than a yay or nay could be seen as prejudiced against the final outcome

Kunt and the gang - is that the collective name of their Friday ‘show’

Lee’s got a mountain to climb or he’ll be the worst Johnson in the clubs history. Some achievement when the other ones a nonce

Like most organisations I’d imagine the premier league have a data retention policy. Normally this is at least a couple of years. If they suddenly didn’t have evidence of emails and meeting minutes from last year I’d imagine it would be inferred that some sort of cover up is afoot and it would end up being ruled in our favour

It doesn’t matter whether you’re pro takeover or anti takeover. I don’t think anyone would argue based on the last 20 years or so that we are probably the club with the most potential. The Arabs know it. We know it. The rest of the premier league know it. Some of the big guns are worries because we are going to crash the party that their business model is built on.

I have a feeling we may know more by the end of the month. Keith explained quite clearly the next steps on Wraith’s show last night and if Masters and Hoffman et al want to save their skins they may well be spending the next week or so working out some sort of damage limitation. If it’s settled I doubt we will ever know what actually went on but to be honest if we get the takeover I don’t really give a shit

He’s kind of done similar before. He was responsible for highlighting price fixing on replica kits a good few years ago, hence why him and Dave Whelan never got on

You read about it a lot in Mike Ashley’s business deals. He’s parking his tanks on the premier leagues lawn. Remember his spat with Dave Whelan that he won as well over the pricing of football shirts years ago with the alleged quote “There’s a club in the North son, and you’re not part of it”. He wouldn’t be going this far if he didn’t think he could win.
