Consortium of one

I think it's a serious dent to our takeover chances. Either the takeover is off or Rafa has been told it won't happen until sometime after the season has started

He's got the heart of a lion and the legs of a plow horse. I will always have fond memories of him but let him go.

The last time we started getting little indicators we were all severely disappointed. Still, I'm close to emotionally investing in this.

I also like that they pointed out that the club ignores its supporters too, with proof.

I wouldn't want to join any clique that would have me as a member

Fascinating article. I still know nothing about the man that I couldn't have already surmised and that is what makes the article so fascinating.

As a seasoned twitter lawyer,????? Sounds like he's having a go.

bullshit decision. There had to be some non monetary penalty...points deduction, transfer embargo. The penalty was never going to be massive but it had to be enough to be a deterrent. 3.5M is not a deterrent.

"Monitoring" is such a significant part of the process as we know.

The affair has been a giant delaying tactic. I hope the entire truth comes out.

I remember when journalists were supposed to report about the story, not become part of the story. Shit stirring jackals.

makes my heart sing...

I'd like to see Charnley be stripped nekkid, thrown into a wheelie bin full of rancid ice water and rolled onto a busy road.

Fuck off

Doesn't Brewcey walk his dog around the training pitch? Charnley picks up the doodoo

My fervent hope is that Rafa does no interviews for current openings. It would indicate that he has an unspoken agreement with PIF/PCP and he's just waiting to gloriously return.

My opinion of Keith is pretty simple: He's done a stand up job getting things done from a fan's perspective but as a quasi-official spokesperson for the hhe has slowly started to unravel. I would have hoped (expected) that someone in his position would be more reserved. Instead, as the months have rolled on, he's more likely to sling shite at those who disagreed with him as opposed to reasoned responses or not responding at all. Right now, IMO, he's no different that a whole bunch of twitter twats. His ideal would have been to rise above the fray...he hasn't

pointing out that Keith is a rube does not equal wanting the takeover to fail.

I think he genuinely was trying make a positive difference but he let it all get to his head. I think anyone with a reputation would have him at arms length.

Bruce and Everton are a match made in heaven

I seem to remember that when the PL offered arbitration last summer Stavely complained that the PL would only offer arb on each point of contention rather than an all-inclusive hearing which, in itself, was a stall tactic by the PL. If my memory serves me, that is when PIF publicly "withdrew". PIF knew at that point that the PL wanted to drag it out as long as possible.

am I missing something? That article is from last August.

Arteta won't make it to January anyway.
