Why didn’t you mention it?

Season to restart on 17/6, hope we get some movement on the takeover soon.

Source It’s what’s Cack Jogback told his brother was happening apparently, someone told me last night. I’m taking it with a massive intravenous dogshit flavored dose of salt though. Still I thought I would post it as it’s such a random claim. Clearly you were on the sauce last night

Saudi wouldn’t have the broadcast rights for the UK though, it would be the Middle East and I understand all games are shown on Saturdays and sundays. Viewers choice .

The UK government might be if it risked the billions the Saudis spend in this country every year.

So we have to wait for that report ? No as it's not a court with the ability to give a legal ruling. Legally its no different to you or I doing a report from what I can understand. It is, but the jurisdiction is limited trade disputes among members. If the panel were to determine that there has been wrongdoing on the part of the Saudi government the outcome would be likely to be a requirement for them to pay compensation. But I agree it seems likely that, if the panel finds against the Saudi Government, it wouldn't necessary represent conviction of a crime for the purposes of the Premier League owners and directors test. No, the WTO is not a criminal court and can’t convict anyone.

Any report by a committee within the WTO would still have to be tested in a court of law should the PL use the conclusions as a basis to block the takeover.

Reuben brothers are based there I believe.

Nice, let's see where it goes Luton?

That's very interesting... Is it? How can Ashley hold out for anything else if the deal is already done, signed and with the PL? What makes you think Ashley can't pull out? If there's an extra 50M on the table, I wouldn't put it past him. He can’t, contracts for the sale have been signed and are with the PL.

If it's not sorted by this week (Monday at latest) then even I will say there is an issue mind and I have been mega positive. That final WTO report is not due until mid-June so maybe that's what the Premier League are waiting for if that's the case. The WTO is an organisation, not a court of law. Their report has reached a conclusion, a conclusion that can be challenged in a court of law. If the PL block the takeover on the basis of a WTO report then this will head to the courts. Having said that I’m as certain as I can be that the takeover will go ahead.

I’ll wait for a response from Caulkin.

Looks like that GLF6 is landing at East Midlands, how far is Shirebrook from there?

Looks like it’s heading west

It’s the pessimist in them.

When Caulkin or Burt say there’s a problem. Correct.

Apparently it took 7 weeks for the Man City O&D test to be approved. Really? I thought I saw it reported as 3 weeks. If I remember correctly it was posted on here about a month or so a go. I don’t fancy trawling through all the posts

Apparently it took 7 weeks for the Man City O&D test to be approved.

And you know that how?

Would be such an interesting trio to start a rebuild with under Rafa. All between 25 and 27 years old, so a good balance of experience and still got some youth. Lots of talent and potential to unlock still in all three. Caulkin thinks Rafa is likely to remain in China for the time being.

It definitely does sound like he means the checks are still ongoing though, wether he meant it that way or not. The buyers seem to have been told something unofficially, they’re confident. If Masters breached any confidentiality in that interview he would leave the door wide open for legal action.

I’m convinced he’s a mackem.

It's almost like what I said 2 weeks ago about it been sat in a folder largely untouched on a desk whilst they work on project restart is right. This one is going to run and run. Expect it to still be running into late mid June at least Can they just do that though when you've got £300m plus riding on it? No sympathy for Ashley, but say for example he was waiting for this money to help stabilise his other businesses during this time, they can't just put it on the back burner because they don't know when football is going to restart? Same from a buyer perspective. They'll want to get cracking on hunting out new staff, players, facilities, etc. It appears they have though to me. Which is why this will still be unresolved in 2/3 weeks time despite people thinking it is imminent. I'd love it to go through this week but it's just not going to happen. What a fucking pessimist you are, all your posts continually try and throw a wet blanket on the takeover.
