I can believe that mind. Shit's hitting the fan and work to be done over here, fatty hides until it all blows over.

What have they done to look more and more dodgy? They've barely said anything other than to say they are still trying to buy us. I'm also going to stick my neck out and say that any delays aren't caused by the buyers. Pretty sure that if they are genuine, and were buying from anyone other than Mike fuckin Ashley, they would have had it completed by now.

Odin going next level? Honestly couldn't be arsed to go through the trouble just for the wind up. Sad fuckers.

I'm with you on that. This is why I don't get the whole 'we're running out of time' carry on. Obviously the quicker the better but as far as I'm concerned if they arrive on the first day of the season with a thread bare squad and no manager, we'd still be in a better position than we are now if it means he's gone. The outcome of the coming season means nowt at this point.

They've declined to comment, so how does he know? Thought that myself...didn't they say something like 'ask the club' a while back? Still not sure it is with them myself. The news yesterday made it sound like it was, but I just can't get round the idea that it's just in fattys hands and that's where it'll stay until we're told it's off.

Well if we can't trust barbers, dentists and Joselu, who can we trust?

This needs to fucking end like. People desperate for any scraps of information. That email is pathetic

Jesus.

Why would they possibly do this? Because an internet forum demands it! In reality though, they're far better keeping quiet and plugging away with the deal than publicly calling out the person they're trying to do business with. Just my thoughts.

O0 In a nutshell. Yet still some of our blinkered 'fans' can't see it. Will be over 50k there 1st game no doubt about it. New manager will be applauded most likely too. Utter shitshow. They deserve all they get. NUFC is dead or at best in permanent vegetative state. No there won’t be Think you might be surprised. I expect a full ground on opening day. For whatever reason too many people just can't keep away.

Just because the TV money is more than the season ticket sales doesn't mean losing the season ticket sales won't have a big impact. It will. He’s likely just to sell even more and sign even less. Does it really matter though? While he's here the club doesn't matter at all, not IMO anyway, each to their own. Only thing I care about now is him gone, anything else (who we sign, who we sell, next manager, relegation ect) means fuck all IMO except how it relates to Ashley fucking off. Where I'm at now as well. See social media pages etc going on about next manager and who will replace Perez etc etc...honestly, who gives a fuck?

Just because the TV money is more than the season ticket sales doesn't mean losing the season ticket sales won't have a big impact. It will. His price increase over the past two seasons will probably soften the blow mind.

That's it..strung both us and BZG along until they were done using it for their benefit. Served no purpose for them to speak before now.

tbf that's just a mixture of various reports that we've already heard

Just the Staveley carry on again, slate them via his mates at Sky/Grim Ryder as he'll report anything they tell him as an exclusive, BZG tell us what really happened then fuck it off as the fat fuckin parasite is impossible to deal with.

Ok, there is one. Beat me to it Although if you can be arsed you could look back through this mess of a thread and find a few who believe that is/was the case. (I'd personally rather shit in my hands and clap).

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.
