You and I both have as much insider knowledge as Simon Jordan has
-
That can't possibly be right, even after the fire sale
-
From a biased and emotional perspective no, but i'd like to hear 2 QCs debating for 6 hours as to why i may be...i'm sure one of them could work a compelling argument to my chihuahua status.

You honestly believe he just woke up one morning, wandered in to court and had to listen to lawyers talking all day without any idea what was going on beforehand? Yes he is not supposed to form an opinion till afterwards, and that will be the official line, but it isn't realistic unless you disregard human nature
-
No, but it would be mental to think a judge would go in to court with no background or preconceived bias
-
Being entirely objective and removing human bias and emotion he couldn't. However I strongly suspect he'd have already made his decision before even going in to the court. He will have likely been briefed beforehand about most of what Lewis and Jowell were going to say, and was simply carrying out due process. Very little new came out yesterday, the major point being the PLs threat to expel NUFC. However its now very public and people/journalists outside of the NUFC bubble are aware of what has gone on.
-
So to summarise....they talked for nearly 6 hours, and no one is actually any clearer on the situation possibly excepting the judge who likely made his decision half an hour into proceedings
-
Sounds like a perfectly average lawyer then

Think it's Palace who are owned by someone in Delaware, but nobody except those owners and Palace themselves know who they are. If i recall they based themselves in Delaware as they have actual laws in that state stating that they don't need to declare who company owners actually are. Burnley are owned by the chancers who basically took out a massive loan, bought Burnley, then loaded said loan on to the Burnley accounts - Same as Man U, just on a smaller scale
-
Not even remotely harsh... Watch some politicians waffle on for three hours to make a point that could have been made in 30 seconds with a single statement. It's not restricted to legal or political either... I've been in hundreds of meetings which lasted hours but could have been summarised in 10 minutes simply because some need 100 words to state what 10 could do. Those 100 words spark others to need 100 words to spend 2-3 hours going in circles to arrive at the original 10 word conclusion. Talking for talking sake should be punished with scorn or the arrival of Karl Pilkingtons " Bullshit Man"
-
Those that speak the most generally have the least to say
-
Sounds like a typical technical meeting that goes on for 5 hours+, where no one pays any attention barring the 10-15 minutes where they have to speak. Guarantee the judge has lost interest by now and has already made decision, but just going through procedure of letting all parties say their piece

It's only entertaining when it's not your team. I love watching a match where one or both teams carve through each other with massive ease, but it gets a bit depressing when it's your own team being carved through with ease for 94 consecutive games
-
More like Homer vs Drederick Tatum
-
We tried
-
Well they won't have announced it....it's just so obviously predictable...I'll go with "more evidence needed" or " documents still to be provided"
-
Bound to just be delayed for several months....
-
No, but I'd be pretty confident in guessing you wouldn't need both hands to count them
-
They're welcome to him....being slightly better than Bruce doesn't make you good. Then again Barca are lining up with Luuk 'cant kick a ball' de Jong these days
-
Must have been watching a different match to me....reminded me of that Simpsons episode with Mexico Vs Portugal
-
Eurghh....so no dialogue ever then since Charley's probably got himself locked in the toilet, or trying to figure out how to switch his computer on
-
Just tell us how it is?!
