It’s the ‘waiting on premier league’ they told Peter Redding last week that gives me the slightest hope. Other than that I’m not hopeful at all Needs them to issue this statement now really as it's getting beyond a joke. He said a few days, well it's getting to the stage where that few days has gone. The positive is that IF this statement is coming out then if it was to say that the takeover is off then it would have been released straight away as not need to 'wait for a few days' for that. Unless they’ve set Ashley a deadline to accept their bid. Which would be sensible as they don’t want it dragging on and then not having time to buy players If that's the case why did they release their original statement as it said all agreed. They may have thought it was agreed. But Mike Ashley. You maybe right nobody knows, so my next question is where is this statement from BZG saying this as I'm sure for their reputation they would want to put things straight. That's most peoples question, but again, nobody knows. We're all sat waiting for a statement from them to clear it up. Regardless of needing something official from the club or BZG, I think it's now getting a bit obvious what's happening. But again, we wait.

Still a more logical belief than Keith Bishop as some cut rate Moriarty controlling everything from the shadows. Does anyone genuinely think that? Valid question. Well there were definitely a few earlier in this whole mess, seem to be quiet now.

You're more optimistic than me I'd be over the moon if they say there's exclusivity, said it before but I couldn't care if they can't do anything this summer if it meant we're rid of fatty.

I’ll get burned but I also trust Ryder at least in that he is reporting what he is being told. His sources are most likely in the club. Situation is one of: - Newcastle saying no bid as there is no bid & buyer playing games - Ashley playing games & seller being messed around So as per usual we basically know fuck all but the most likely outcome, based on past windows, is absolutely fuck all will happen. Howay man, how can you say 'the situation is one of' those? Are you really not sure which one it is?

It just has all the hallmarks of a classic Ashley fuck up... I say fuck up, as that's what it is to us fans, but to Ashley, it's exactly his plan. Tell bare faced lies about the people wanting to buy, and face no repercussions for said lies from fans or media. He can literally do what he wants. To me, it's as good as over now. Another buyer being fucked off.

Undisclosed

I honestly couldn't give a shit how late in the window it is, as long as it happens.

Aye it's just a case of when they're going to say it's off now imo.

As if BZG have any say in the matter.

Business as usual init! Nothing to announce but departures.

Undisclosed buy out clause.

Amazing how quickly an outgoing transfer can be done.

Fucking hell

Don't do it to yourselves.

I know of a person keeping his ticket to keep the points, but apparently not attending any matches. On one hand, still paying Ashley, on the other, ensuring his seats empty. Wouldn't be me personally but each to their own I guess.

Kill iz

Think only 3 or 4 people on here still think it’d going to happen to be fair I still there’s a fair chance Same man. Far more likely than Ashley staging an elaborate hoax, involving arabs and Companies House, that he didn't need to stage Yep, that’s full on tin foil hat territory Aye, the shite about it being staged by Ashley/Bishop is exactly that...Shite. I think there's a chance we get taken over still, until I hear a definitive statement saying otherwise. However I think it's definitely the less likely outcome, the other being Ashley just puts a block on it all soon.

I don't go on Twitter, have people just been relentlessly harassing him about the statement? I get that people are desperate for good news, but do people really think they're going to get anything extra/some sort of exclusive by hounding him? Or if people are calling it bullshit, at least give it till the end of the week. Like the whole Midhat Whatsapp carry on, I just don't get it.

Doubt it'll be locked, will just change it back to the Mike Ashley thread....the joys!

As much as I'm fairly certain it isn't on now, it's needed just for clarity now like. Just put us out of our misery.

Walking into the office this morning, overheard a porter and someone else in the corridor. 'What do you think of Perez?' ... '£30 million? Excellent' Honestly don't know what angle people see us from. Absolutely fucking mental. He upset a load of fans with his celebrations. Regardless, this still isn't good business (from an NUFC fans point of view). Doesn’t matter. He did the ear thing. Bairn was crying. Actually thought the original reply was serious.

Always remember that Ashley is just a cunt, so when he acts like a cunt, it's no surprise. He doesn't need a reason.
