Does it have to get to a certain number before there's guaranteed consideration by the government? 100,000? It's not a parliamentary one. It could have 500 million, they don't have to do anything. I think they'd probably taking a keener look at petition with 500 million signatures, but I get your point. A wildly publicised petition would be as effective as a paltry question in parliament, in my opinion.

Apparently so, Ikon[/member]! I don't think communication ever stopped, but like I said before, weeks would pass between questions and answers. Apparently Ashley's side have been shit hot with information to the PL, but it was snail mail on the return. Sorry the information is shite. Neither party I'm getting my tidbits relayed from support Newcastle (one doesn't even like football), so I'm afraid it's all Purple Monkey Dishwasher when I get my filthy paws on it.

So I've had some information of sorts (albeit filtered through my Celtic supporting fiancee). Dialogue is now 10 x what it was before the 'bid withdrawal' between the consortium and the PL, both positive and negative. This is very good news, as apparently they'd go weeks without any interaction Ashley, or should I say Keith, will be releasing a statement of such this week to journalists regarding the takeover financially costing the retail industry due to him not being able to reinvest his money, or lack thereof. Nothing we didn't already know, so apologies.

He has very high-level contacts within the KSA regime (for obvious reasons). Also well connected in the City. I'd certainly take what he has to say seriously. I might have missed something but why does he have obvious high level connections within KSA? And in the city for that matter? Unless he me them at gamblers anonymous which I find unlikely I always just assume anything Penn says has some ulterior motive behind it and he's being facetious Is that polite for total cunt?

Come on now, its finished. Maybe in the original iteration, but it's not done. No way. Of course its finished. Saying what you want to happen won't make it happen and will just consign you to more heartache. Just accept its over and move on. The statements by both NUFC and the consortium read like a PR war with the PL. Move on? Like it's that easy. I would've moved on in 2008 otherwise.

Actually, fuck it. Can't be arsed to PM people. A well respected journalist (on here, anyway) who leans heavily in favour of Newcastle United has told a colleauge of my partners (the wife of Paul Smith of Maximo Park fame ) a decision is expected this week. My partner is deputy head of the medical liaison team at Newcastle University and supports Celtic, if you wanted to know that shit. I plucked Thursday out of thin air and added additional cans and socks for flavour.
