I said "if".... Plus how do you know or are you just guessing ? I know for a fact that, as of Friday night, the PL checks were still taking place. Course you did I do know that for a fact, actually. I spoke to one of this forum's favourite journalists about it. They said they spoke to the buyers side on Friday afternoon and everything was still with the PL. Course you did OK. I'm not entirely sure whether you're joking or just being difficult for the sake of it, so I'll let you mistakenly believe that the takeover is done. Enjoy. Didn't say it was what I'm saying is you're talking a load of shite about speaking with anyone. Why do you think that? Believe what you want to believe man... I sent both Caulkin and Waugh from the Athletic DMs on Twitter and they both replied with the same info. But if you'd prefer to be a dick and doubt that, then fill your boots. You’re not fucking Odin, are you? For fucks sake, no. It's hardly fucking ground breaking anyway is it... I messaged Caulkin and Waugh and both said that they'd spoken to the buying side on Friday and there was nothing to report and it was still with the PL. I mean, it's hardly unbelievable... they both publicly said the same thing on Thursday. And every other news report says the same thing. Pretty sure godzilla is just being a pillock for the sake of it. As has been said, what is unbelievable is that you think they'd tell you and only you that's it's been completed.

He'll crack as he'll be under massive pressure. He'll know that he's on borrowed time and that every eye is on him. Could be horrendous to watch.

They're all getting the information from the House of Saud website man! Ah, that's the source

Hughes did ok at places where he wasn't given vast sums of money to spend.

This "next week" line that is being pushed out... Is that just journalists repeating each other after one person mentioned it or do we think that the PL have told the press something on the quiet?

I did too

From plane watch to calendar watch.

I think that it's best that we don't focus on dates and just remain patient. A watched pot never gets taken over by the PIF.

Also mentioned Pochettino being approached but that’s not for this thread. Sorry but I remain unconvinced that anyone within NUFC knows who the owners-in-waiting have spoken to.

And your source is?

What's Odin up to these days?

If anything the government will have told them off record to put it through. Since project restart need gov approval I think everyone can benefit from this. I don't know how readily available the full criteria for the PL test is but i think the concern would be that there is a party out there that has gone through it themselves and feels that legally, the PL cannot approve the deal and will challenge a 'yes' decision. It can't just be approved because someone from government said to do so. Apologies, it wasn’t a fully serious post. More a dig at the currents gov relationship with KSA and their love of money. But there’s probably some truth between both posts. I certainly agree in theory. There will be every effort made to get the deal through because of the money involved. I just think the PL will be checking every angle possible, multiple times, to make sure they are protected.

This is not simply a commercial decision though. If they say yes, they need to be 100% sure that the criteria has been met and that they are safe legal action.

STM got a blowjob off a boxer Thanks for that That's the dog breed by the way. It wasn't Anthony Joshua.

Sewelly is now ponsaelius (I'm fairly sure)

Rafa called the players 'Donkeys' to the press. Did I miss that ?

For the love of god, why ?

He's already experienced what SJP can be like at it's best when we beat Spurs 5-1.

Yeah West Ham are the other one tbf. Huge history in the English game in terms of the players and managers they've produced and their contributions to the England team, and a huge cultural following; by far the biggest club in East London. They've underachieved. I'd add Villa to the list too, personally. They've got the European Cup on their honours list.

While I believe them whole heartedly, we maybe should be just a touch cautious as Ashley came out with similar comments when he took over. Someone posted a picture of the front page of the Journal from the time of what he said exactly.

I have little doubt that Bruce is of the same mindset.

Never realised Ian W posted under an alias.

Fuck

Superb post.
