hate shit like this, the PL rules are vague as fuck for a reason man, so they can do what they want and let whoever they want into their club/deny access if the saudis hadn't been cunts over the piracy thing they'd not have been in this position What they are assessed on is not vague. Saying to someone you can’t buy the club unless you buy the TV rights is a clear attempt of blackmail. Even if it was allowed within the Premier League’s own rules, it wouldn’t be allowed legally. Mind it looks like it’s a no nowt junior journo who’s tweeted this shite.

I dont think he'd need to sell us to buy intu. Intu own 60% of Eldon Square. Eldon Square probably has about 50% of the retail space in Newcastle. In comparison Ashley a few years ago bought 1 building on Northumberland Street for £30m. Even in administration it would cost billions to buy all of Intu’s properties. As of yesterday it had a market capitalisation of £52million. There is no way you could buy it for £52m. It would be the biggest bargain ever. Maybe not because it also has debts which is why its in the position it is. Yeah, you'd need to pay back the creditors if you bought it at that price. Would you have to pay back the creditors or manage the debt ? I know they've already breached their debt covenants and those they owe money have had the opportunity to take the centres over themselves. They will go into administration today I should think and then it will be a case of best buyer gets them off the administrators. Ashley will be desperate for his £283 million then.

I agree, it’s an ideal time to make the decision. As much as that makes sense I think if they did that people would be screaming about the timing taking the gloss off their title win. ?♂️ I’m not so sure, at the moment Newcastle aren’t on the radar or perceived as a threat to the top six, when the takeover happens that is likely to change.

Utter shite but the pundits and journo’s will still want Bruce to be given the job after any takeover. -
Hope you’re right, I predicted this week in the poll

You could flip it, and say still nothing concrete to say it isn't this week or it is close True, however I still think if it is to happen we would get a definite leak from somewhere first. A leak would just be counted as hearsay though so wouldn't be concrete would it? Not if it came from a strong source and actually said tests have been passed now down to money transfer. We have never got to that point. What would you class as a strong source ? A journalist naming someone in the PL with actual quotes ? Not going to happen. Well a journalist actually saying the words the checks are passed, which the likes of Caulkin have said from day one would come out in the press before funds are transferred. Not going to happen it will be an official announcement, which the media will get notified of at the time it occurs. Announcement will come from PIF, not PL after money is in Ashley’s account.
