The PIF have nothing to lose in this situation. Its Fat Mike doing all the heavy lifting in the public eye. So they can just sit back and await the outcome.

The last deal Sky paid £6.4bill and BT paid £1.4bill for 3 years rights. Cant find the Bein Sports payment?

Finishing 5th and only buying Anita the following summer.

Moving us all from Level 7 because we sang horrible songs about him!

Pardew headbutting Meyler was a really low point. Typified the regime, and its employee in a microcosm.

Some interesting quotes from Ian about his current team in Nashville. However it's clear to see how Staveley could be attracted to his philosophy. Shes expressed similar views about the Newcastle takeover. I learned identity. Every club has a unique identity, a unique set of values,” Ayre said. “I get it, when I start to wax on about the values, people’s eyes glaze over, like, yeah whatever. But it’s so important in a sports team. That identity that we create in the next year or two, the importance of setting an identity, we’re not just throwing ‘uniquely Nashville’ out there. If we get that wrong, then it’s wrong and it doesn’t represent Nashville and doesn’t create a connection with this community. We have a different set of objectives and values, but we’re trying to create our identity that people go, 'That’s cool, that’s Nashville.'"

So much for the Premier League never commenting on prospective owner checks.

The Premier League wont announce anything

Theres an Atlantic article that says it would cost £20mil to buy him out of his contract. So probably not gonna happen?

You say that but someone on here compared ASM with Giggs the other week. You really do have a holier than thou attitude!

Comparing his excellent balance to Giggs, yes. Can you read or just get by letting people help you?

His balance is his greatest asset. The way he very quickly transitions fro receiving the ball to full on sprint is amazing. Coupled with his ability to jink at high speed too. Giggs was the last player with that sort of ability imo.

Go for Danny Ings in the Summer?

I'm really struggling to remember the last time we really played well, the whole game? Not results wise there have been a few good results, just not down to good football?

It looked like that to me as well.

Was it definitely 442 yesterday though?

At least Bruce has admitted that he knows Miggy's best position is just behind the striker.

If I remember correctly Stavely offered him a £300mil no strings attached deal. He said that it was a waste of time. I believe the asking price is probably the £350mil being reported. With the Saudis being on board the quite substantial extra £50mil Ashley tax can be afforded.

Back four with Rose and Manquillo. Get the team 20yards further forward to help Joelinton.

With Bruce admitting that we'll eventually have to change formation. Which one suits our current squad?

You could replace Bruce with Pardew and we ended up 5th lol.

Pallotta's really trying to buy Leeds isn't he? We are being used as a ruse to get them cheaper surely?
