Pure guess work but Ashley hasn’t taken bid off table and it’s still with PL, we know for definite all communication must go through club. It’s rumoured Ashley is working to save deal, I suspect he’s still in dialogue with consortium and PL to find a way to get this through. Will it happen who knows, but the point being there is a glimmer and certainly discussions are still happening. It’s been reported PIF will return if green light is assured, how they get to that point is for far more skilled people in this sphere than ourselves to work out. Also it’s still worth recalling the Southampton takeover, they initially knocked it back but found a way to restructure it. I still retain hope that Rick Astley will be belting out over the tannoy before Xmas to herald Staveley’s arrival (sorry for the last sentence Shaun). The actual deal expired and no longer exists. In reality, despite what Amanda Staveley said, Ashley probably fucked the consortium right off, by trying to get more money out of them.

If it wasn't for the lack of a fourth sentence, I would have sworn that was Nostradamus. I’ll accept your apology in a few days. That’s been a few days. Heard nothing I genuinely don't understand what people get out of posting stuff like that.

?

Any chance that silence can mean that nothing is happening and the buyers have moved on ? Also, believing anything that Ashley says All negotiations must be conducted via club, therefore by leaving deal open with them discreet soundings can still be made between parties to seek resolution. Will they be successful who knows, but confirmation deal is not dead. I do appreciate the thinking and fair play to you if you are still able to optimistic about it all. I can't i'm afraid. I also cannot see how it gets past the PL.

Not once we turn up.

Why are you talking like there's something to look forward to?

If he's such a good player, and the likes of Liverpool are/were interested in him, why would he come here ?

The club isn't worth making any effort for anymore and also, no one one will pay attention anyway. NUFC are very insignificant.

I actually care a great deal about them. I want them all to be heavy and humiliating. Feel bad for wishing that on the players, nowt against them, but it's all about Ashley's club failing miserably now.

Oh no doubt. They'll be aware of our potential for relegation so will be getting tighter rules in force, ready for the next takeover

If it wasn't for the lack of a fourth sentence, I would have sworn that was Nostradamus. I’ll accept your apology in a few days. I'd swear there was someone else, months ago, said something very similar. Can't remember if that was you or not. I wonder what happened to that ITK information. Hmmmm... Rocker. Nah, it was someone different, a name I didn't recognise. I'll never remember now, so much has been said since but the feel of Mimms' post was quite familiar.

Ah, man Just... why?

Still absolutely staggered reading that that at no point have we been given an update/reason/statement whatever you want to call it on why. Nothing from any party following it all falling to bits. Even more baffling everyone has just dropped it and moved it without answer. PIF probably don't think it's worthy of answer. It was a small cog in their 'Vision 2030' and won't be seen as needing much attention. It's dead. As correctly said by someone else, the lack of communication from the club about it is disgraceful (but not in anyway surprising).

Wasn't sure how it'd look just by reading the posts. I was not expecting what I saw Seems to deliberately guide into the goal.

5-1

What's PA Sport ?

Correct, everyone is now silent, that is how it always should have been, but that is how it is now and it will remain that way until a decision is reached. We just need to WAIT. On the list you go, WUM.

FFS :lol:

We know that the PIF pulled out of the deal. Why are you ignoring that fact ?

What an absolute bellend, man. He's lost the plot.

More completely "made up" rubbish. The situation remains as i outlined it a few posts back, and will remain that way until we actually hear (are told) the final result. Nothing to (pretend to) report until then. How is it 'made up' ? As things stand: Mike Ashley owns us. The Consortium pulled out. Ergo, Mike Ashley is going to own us for the 20/21 season.

It'd be so much better though if the person who operates it had some sort of filter rather than posting every little rumour. They do post stuff that is clearly a load of bollocks. Most of the rumours in the press are a load of bollocks so they'd end up posting nothing. That's a fair point.
