Miguel Delaney will be firing up his Twitter account too.

I really doubt it'll happen any time soon if at all. Who the hell knows what's going on. Club issues an inflammatory statement directed at the PL then it's radio silence. All we do know is that top lawyers in their field are working behind the scenes, what comes of it is nothing more than speculation by people.

Was thinking exactly this It has nothing to do with it. Not as such but in this age of dead cat PR I imagine the optics of announcing anything alongside this would look pretty sledgehammer and obvious. It has nothing to do with the D&O test and that's what the Premier League have to go on. I want this takeover to happen, however it’s all about the optics.

Trial begins today in Turkey, I can’t see any announcement whilst this is going on tbh. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-53276121

Does a player have to earn £300k a week? Does a ticket to a game have to be £75? Do agents have to earn millions? Why is more and more and more money a good thing? It’s not just football, does any sportsmen/women have to earn millions a year. Lewis Hamilton makes some footballers look like fucking paupers.

Interesting discussion and read.

The Football Law opinion indicates that Saudi and Qatari lawyers accept that PIF is a separate legal entity. ∆ On 2 June 2020 Qatari- and Saudi- based lawyers provided confirmation to this author that KSA PIF is a separate legal entity. I think it's pretty clear that's not the case. I’ll go with the lawyers opinion not some know it all on N-O.

You sold that well from the off but fair play. I thought to mention it for those who are eternally optimistic, but doubt the story or aspects of the story. It would make sense if the club had mentioned it to the police force, but I doubt the Premier League would, as I doubt they will be making an announcement. I don’t think they would usually, but their seems some doubt in this case due to high profile nature of it. I personally think they will have to say something, even if it’s a very bland statement. Something like “there’s no timescale to conducting the O&D tests” Don’t we know it.

Agree with him a decision needs making as the club is in limbo, however he was never going to have a major rant at the PL.

Told you he’d say fuck all.

Fucking he’ll, close up of Bruce, he’s got bigger tits than wor lass

He won’t. He might. He won’t, he works for the BBC and they and their presenters have to remain impartial. He’s a pundit who’s paid to give his opinion, there isn’t anything to stop him giving his point of view on takeover. To give opinions on games, that’s all not to take up the cause of NUFC by having a rant at the PL. He’ll hardly mention the takeover other than in general terms, i.e, the club is in limbo etc.

He won’t.

Next week

They're not going to walk away this theory that the Premier League are dragging it for this purpose is mental It’s as believable as any other of the theories going round. I don't agree to be honest. I don't care how much money they have, I can't believe that the buyers will just walk away and lose their deposit because they got fed up of waiting. They wouldn’t give Qatar the pleasure of just walking away.

The Saudis won’t walk away, it’s about saving face. They’ll stay there until the PL make a decision.

Time for some humour. https://twitter.com/NUFCRobb/status/1276824422612164610

Well that was a good guess....clueless as usual....still it’s the positive Thread so after the latest news from Alan Nixon:- “Looks like Premier want Saudis to do a TV deal at their end ... all a bit political ... get something out of it ... nod it through.”..... So I’m going for Saudi does deal with PL next week re TV rights and takeover confirmed Tuesday 7th July....If I’m wrong I’ll come up with a new theory? Has the bidding process started for the new tv deal, also Bein have the rights to PL football in the region, can the PL do a deal with the Saudis? It would piss Bein off and could be a breach of the current deal surely.
