Yes, Keith led an excellent factual discussion last night about how far advanced the Takeover process is. Like Keith, I feel that good news (great news) about our Staveley/Reubens/PIF Takeover is now completely inevitable, and all that WE have to do is . . .

Lots of very serious legal-related stuff from Keith so far. Excellent.

Yes, we didn't win the World Cup in 1966 either.

The European Fairs Cup, before it became the UEFA Cup then the current Europa League, was a great experience . . . https://www.skyscrapercity.com/threads/fairs-cup-newcastle-united-and-the-1969-fairs-cup-win-50th-anniversary-1969-to-2019.2177948/post-159296132

Everything worth taking into account points towards the logical outcome of a successful takeover, and a VERY exciting future for NUFC.

We are NUFC, the club that I have supported through "all types" of times since 1967. We do frequently get (to use your words) "nice things", of course we do. Soon, we will get VERY nice things That is inevitable, as I am sure most of us now realise.

Where did you get that from?

But, all of this is only relevant if the Premier League are actively looking for a way to stop this deal going through. With all the massive benefits it would bring to the City of Newcastle, The UK economy, the Premier League itself, and last (but not least) to Newcastle United FC, then SURELY the Premier League should really be actively looking for any way possible to get this deal passed, ASAP!

There is no point in listening to anyone who says there is going to be 'good news' or 'bad news' on a certain day, or even 'after' a certain day. Unless it is Staveley, or someone else actually involved. No one else knows any 'dates' at all. We all know there will be good news (in fact 'great news') eventually, but don't listen to anyone who says "when" !!!

Reading the sequence of posts it looked like you were talking about the big letter "S", that is what I was talking about. Looking back further, it seems you were talking about a pigeon !!! My mistake, sorry!

See my post just above yours.

All of the letters from the roof of the East Stand were put up for sale . . . Old Newcastle United sign finally sells for £15,536.13 on EBay. | NUFC Blog.

Spot on !! I am an 'Ashley Hater' (he deserves it) but I am NOT an "irrational" Ashley Hater !!

Let's hope he doesn't die then! (yet)

The extremely unpalatable reality is, that he IS on our side, very much so. I'm sure he doesn't like it either !!!!!!!!

Then he won't sell. Genuine answer.

Wrong, simply wrong. Right now, we need him.

Ashley is our friend, our very best friend, right now. Difficult to take? Yes indeed, but we need him on our side to get this takeover done, so definitely NO action to be taken against Ashley.

Yes indeed, logical indeed . . .

I wish that was the case. So many times people post that "because of the delay" . . . nothing is happening, the deal has fallen through, it's all over live-with-it, etc. That is NOT waiting!!

All we can do is WAIT, some on here do not seem to realise or accept that. Hence, the message has to be repeated, sometimes.

There isn't, and never has been, any timetable for the length of time that we have to 'wait' until the Takeover is announced. All we have to do is WAIT . . .

Why?

Unlikely to be 5 years !! BUT, no-one knows how long, I understand your impatience (do you not think I share those feelings?) but we can only wait. Everything I know about the situation involving the sale of our club, and the personnel involved (ALL of them, on all sides, seller, buyer, EPL) leads me to be absolutely certain of our eventual success. Absolutely certain, and knowing that makes the waiting a LOT easier.

That is the point, he was using those well known examples of information that is already in the public domain to demonstrate the "type" of evidence that will be used. It is logical that those examples are "as nothing" in comparison to the actual evidence that will be used (of course I have not seen the evidence myself) but the quality of that evidence is why the legal action and arbitration are both going forward - right now.
