They do this sort of weird stuff all the time. Something good has happened at Newcastle, quick pretend to be a Newcastle fan and go against what all other Newcastle fans think. Or, something bad happens at Sunderland, quick lets make something up where Newcastle did it ten times worse. They're fucken weird. This whole thing is fucking killing them. They are desperately trying to convince themselves it's a bad thing.

Did they not do this last week according to Caulkin?

I doubt anyone would be expecting a title challenge in the first year. I'm sure I read it's going to be a gradual growth year on year which is absolute streets ahead of where we've been the last 13 years.

Funny isn't it, when that Dell consortium looked like they were buying them and they were telling everyone they were going to be the richest club in the world, we didn't hear any of these concerns then did we? They absolutely love trying to convince themselves that this is a negative.

:lol:

How far behind is Craig Hope? "In talks" Craig mate, the owners and directors test is a week in.

Unless he fancies the club down the road from us. They reckon hes a good owner anyway so it makes sense.

I hope they tumble down the leagues and eventually go out of business. Just thought I'd add a bit balance here.

Well I based my opinion of Mike Ashley on the football served up, the people he appointed to run the football club and the people he pissed off along the way (Keegan, Shearer, Rafa the fans etc). I'll be basing my opinions of our new owners in exactly the same way. After 13 years of a parasite holding this club back, I honestly dont care where the new owners are from as long as they run this club like a football club. Whether the Saudis own us or dont own us will make no difference to how they behave and what they do in Saudi Arabia.

It’s going to be a long 2-4 weeks. Please nobody print any T-shirt’s. Jesus christ, imagine this place and twitter if nowt is said for the next 4 weeks.

Hopefully if Rafa comes back, all the morons who think he was boring and prefer Bruce can fuck off and make way for all those fans who boycotted because of Ashley.

I personally couldn't give a shit what any glory seeking man utd fan thinks. Fuck them. I'm hoping some sort of statement is made in the next day or 2 from PCP, they cant make us wait 2 or 3 weeks surely?

Anyone point me in the direction of those plans for the pitch to be rotated so the stadium could be extended. I'm sure I was reading it on here the other day.

Not sure about anyone else but I feel sick and nervous as fuck here. Christ.

Anyone a subscriber and fancy a copy and paste?

What's this 150 million Staveley/Barclays thingy that i keep seeing mentioned

Yep it's all here https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/12415316/filing-history Public investment fund are mentioned on page 4 or 5 of the pdf document if you download it and flick through.

So he's changed his mind from no involvement then :D Nobody knows anything about what involvement they will have, but I'm sure it will at some point. From what I've read, the PIF will come in as an investor after Staveley has purchased the club. Hopefully this is what happens. Apparently this is common in these sort of business deals. It's all a bit head battering at the minute. There's a lot of information out there today. I just want that fat leech gone.

Ok so we all get our hopes up and as in previous takeovers, they are completely dashed at some point by someone who has knowledge of all this. I'm waiting to be disappointed...
