I am all in with the Saudis, and have always been since they first pitched in. I am not really interested in American owners, or for that matter most of the other options mentioned. As others have mentioned, they'll probably just load the club with debt Glazer style. I think this is a once in a lifetime chance with Stavely. Reubens and PIF, if it falls through, not really arsed if we get sold or not. My thoughts too, Staveley and co or bust.

I don’t doubt someone has told him that - but didn’t someone from the Saudi government say on Twitter it’d be announced Monday based on the report in the U.K. 2 weeks back?

A very reasonable and well thought out thread. Can’t disagree at all.

The sooner I see Rafael Benitez Maudes carefully placing his spectacles into his jacket pocket the better. Would love Poch, but RBM has unfinished business here.

He didn’t say that - he did say that there must have been some kind of problem for it to take so long, but because it hasn’t happened yet doesn’t mean to say it won’t. He didn’t pretend to know anything more than us and I agreed when he said it has became so unbearable because of the false deadlines put on it by journalists and so called ITK’s. Was going off what Ideal Crash said. Ah fair play!

This. Could understand if it was remotely funny or clever.

Rafa is just big boned.

Creased at this, perfect timing after the previous couple of posts.

Says in the article that there is frustration in the recruitment team that they can’t work on a list of targets put together by Bacon balls and Nickson.....thank fuck!!!!

That whole thread is probably the most enlightening I've read on the whole piracy subject, well worth a read. Feeling a bit more positive after reading that too. Aye it is good. He was sticking his boot in on the 11th when this first came to light too.

Eventually. Fuck sake.

A few tweets on the thread, but seems pretty balanced.

That was recorded before this broke True, but surely if they’ve had these documents for 2 weeks AS and co will be well aware and therefore GC will be too.

I won’t be watching any football, wouldn’t give the league any attention whatsoever. Fuck them.

None of these rags have been right about it supposedly getting confirmed in the next few days when they called it, so hopefully they’re wrong about this too. Caulkin was tweeting this afternoon and didn’t seem concerned and that Podcast will be available soon too.

Feels like our last chance of becoming a successful club this. Even if someone else bought the club off Ashley in a few months time, it wouldn’t be as exciting as this. Hopefully it goes through soon, I am fucking sick of waiting and refreshing.

Aye this, hopefully if it does fall through Bruce ends up relegating the club. Couldn’t stand seeing the fat cunt standing in front of a camera smug as fuck.

Spot on. Not one of them is worth keeping over getting a top class manager in.

They are going to Magland, it’s happening.

It won’t be he said he’s going to coach for another 10 years and into his 70’s. I think he’ll go onto manage Spain or England when he’s in his late 60’s said he wants to manage a national team at the end of his career not while he still wants to be on the training pitch/coach players all the time. A whole decade left for Rafa he’ll end up being the Spanish Sir Bobby Hope he doesn’t manage Engurland like, the way the media have treated him is a joke. I want Steve Bruce to get the job to see how highly everyone rates him when they’re lumbered with him....

He has also tweeted if it doesn’t happen this week then it’s time to question if it will happen at all. Every tweet screams that he knows nothing, he’s not even getting a sniff, Burt is probably not even sharing anything with him. I recall him tweeting similar around 3 weeks ago, if it doesn’t happen next week then it’s time to worry etc. He is an idiot who knows nowt.

Would make winning our first trophy in over half a century even sweeter if public enemy Rafael Benitez Maudes was the man to lead us to it. We’d have the rest of the country rattled.
