Any chance you could summarise? Caulkin Podcast Explains :lol:

Arteta has confirmed he was approached.

Oof, Craig obviously doesn't care for the St James press room team and biccies

Hope looks a little silly seeing as 'bust up' and 'fallout' are essentially the same thing.

Apart for bacon clips on here I haven't seen any of his interviews. At first it was out of apathy towards him but now it's cos he's annoying as fuck.

I've also never seen it myself but enjoy his discomfort nonetheless

It's embarrassing and it was success by anyone's measure. He knows it's going to wind people up, he just doesn't give a shit. Inflammatory bellend.

He'd be better off not having them in to limit his detrimental impact any further.

Exactly the same thing was said the previous times so you'll have to forgive me if I don't see this latest silence as a sign that something is happening. Whatever led to the WSJ piece being written, I cannot say, but there has been nothing since to suggest it was credible. I think the lack of denials from any of the rumoured parties suggests some credibility. They gain nothing from being linked and if anything it harms Staveleys reputation after the original failed bids. More likely there was interest and Ashleys demands have kiboshed it. Edit - or the slump may have had an impact. You'd be nuts to pay nearly 1/2 billion at this stage.

"Clearly" The only thing clear here is the club will not be sold. What's your explanation for the Wall Street Journal story and no denials from both parties? Please don't say Keith Bishop. Not disputing your 2nd point mind....

They are a typical big strong side without much ability, they aren't going to be mauling anybody. They'll win though, because at least they know what they are about. It would be funny if Burnley were like 3 up after 65 mins and the 10000 free season ticket cunts just walked out. Like, “fuck it, nothing lost, didn’t cost a penny” and the rest of the crowd are fucking fuming at what’s happening on the park AND in the stands. Then realising they’re the thick cunts who are funding the whole fucking shitshow. They’re actively making it happen. They’re the cause of it all but they’re too fucking thick to join the fucking dots. That would be fucking mint, I’d love it. Think you've picked up some bad habits from your time on RTG, chill out a bit.

Wouldn't that make him a puppet ala Bruce/Joelinton?

Staveley lowballed originally as there was a real chance of relegation at the time and her bids reflected that: £250m cash no clauses. £300m - £200m paid up front and 2 X £50m to be laid later, but not payable if relegated. £350m - various relegation and future success clauses. Can't remember split. Not saying Staveley was wrong to offer that, it was probably fair due to the risk but can understand why Ashley rejected and as we're now talking £350m cash buy, looks like his gamble paid off (if he were to actually sell of course )

He's utterly shameless

Aye, the Glazers really seem the sort that would be massively intimidated by a couple of knackers being divvies near the house of one of their employees.... I’m just bitter about all this. I've got some leftover fireworks that I'm happy to send your way if you feel that aggrieved by the lack of action. Send them Ashley’s way instead. I'm no knacker

Nitpicking possibly, but surely if it’s down to Ashley wanting to sell, then there’s a disagreement with price? If there’s no disagreement on price then he sells. Not necessarily price/value but maybe continued sports direct advertising etc

We trade with them in both imports and exports so our economy certainly benefits from our relationship with them. Seems odd to me to use their funding of a football club as a line in the sand, but respect the fact that this is probably a more direct line in to our own personal situations, rather than the funds/goods we receive being filtered down.

Mate. Jesus, I can totally undersatand this line of thinking, but howay man You know large swathes of the fan base are going to be lording over those who wanted us relegated.

Likewise, implies he's just saying let's complete.

"Newcastle United, Staveley, and PIF have all declined to comment." Just know Ashley is going to throw a girly strop because people are asking about it and use it an excuse.

Bruce hasn't seen anything like Leicester is 30 odd years or whatever, now he's on target for twice in 2 weeks. How unfortunate!

Unfortunately there appears to be 50k or so supporters that are happy and NUST is working on their behalf more than us dissenters on this forum.
