Its obviously not a negotiating tactic no-one negotiates like that. If someone comes to you house selling something you don't want, them walking away is not something that is going to displease you

If the FA do bother to respond its gonna be Global pandemic, project restart etc etc.

What decision? They never made one

I don't get that, they have very pubically withdrawn. This isn't going anywhere I don't think

You don't make a public announcement that you are pulling out as a pressure tactic, that's nuclear

Fucking Hell man I love your optimism but you are like King Canute After all that's been said in the last 12 hours or so, financially unviable, walking away, victory for the oppressed it would be a bigger shitstorm if the PL now approve. They will look like they've been played and had their hands forced (or cut off) by the Saudi bullies It can't happen now imo The Consortium have blown the lid off this and fans are about to fight back. Maybe not on here, but other avenues. They’ll fight for it, they’ll fight the PL and I think a few of the journos will get behind them now it’s close season as what else is there to do, but most importantly the government will have their say at some point and masters will find out he’s not appreciated and not the all powerful person he thinks he is. If the pl are yet to have a formal withdrawal, and the consortium and Ashley are still willing to do the deal, then this is just pressure play, but they’ve gone all in from the off to inflict maximum impact. Pl aren’t going to be allowed to just walk away from this. I think you're overlooking the fact that most people outside Newcastle either support whats happened or don't give flying fart

They've been asked whether a jaffa cake is biscuit or a cake. Its caused bedlam, massive disagreements in the house of saud as their biscuits go hard and cake soft when left out in direct contradiction to western baked products. Can't see an answer to this anytime soon

Hasn't affected mine, I've always been mental

It IS our last Ashley/Bruce game. I wouldn't say 'enjoy it', but it will be our last chance to feel that "absolute hopelessness" during a match, that we have all felt for so long. So, while you can't 'enjoy' it, just 'experience' it - safe in the knowledge that it is ALL OVER . . . I want to believe you and I hope what you're saying actually happens. Can you please for one last tine clarify your reasons why it is happening tomorrow and what is the source of your confidence from just so I can fully get on board with your cult/theory? Don't do it to yourself mate, we are all clueless its a bit of optimism in a maelstrom of shite, that's all so don't hang your hat on it

My insider tells me that it has been delayed as Masters was given the job of planning an FA night out at a local brewery. This was exacerbated by the resulting day trip to a temperance meeting

Apart from the fact that the potential new owners are confident? So are priests

Its clearly at impasse, the PL want something and PIF either haven't yet or can't deliver Anyone with supreme confidence in this should find their like-minds in religion as there is no evidence for their position

Any chance you can buy the rights to an enter key and type in paragraphs?

If the actual length of the contract isn't stated I think it may be conditional

I can't begin to tell you what a heap of steaming dog shit that HMRC link is. Believe me when I say I know

what the hell

Its not

Given that Masters is still pondering the formation of the Premier League I'm not concerned. He'll wake up in the middle of August celebrating Brian Deane's goal

:lol: perfectly summed up

So given they have left MENA they can bid for solo rights?

The current global political climate has emboldened racist dunderheads. They feel more able to parade their ignorance in public than ever before

Unfortunately that's not the case at all, this could still be going next month easily

I remember him saying he couldn't understand how his brother could celebrate a goal against Newcastle

very sad, proper geordie unlike his brother
