Redbird/Redball Capital does look rather interesting..

Do you think there's perhaps a risk that you're interpreting the complete lack of information in a way that suits what you would like to happen, rather than what is likely to happen? I think the public withdrawal from the deal, and then complete lack of further public comment, suggests that the Public Investment Fund is no longer in the running to buy NUFC. You seem to think it suggests the absolute opposite? ANY UPDATE ON THE TAKOVER LIKE LUKE. TB Like.

Seriously I think its easier than that.

Good idea Thoughts? It'd prove how easy it is.

Wonder if we could set up (as a forum) a fakeover bid & see how many journos bite. It cant be that fucking hard.

Here's the template for everyone thats willing to post it on twitter: Official Partners of Corruption @EASPORTS @nikefootball @Budweiser @CocaCola_GB @TAGHeuer @OfficialPanini @BarclaysFooty @AveryDennison #RichardMasters #GaryHoffman #NUFC #PremierLeagueAreCorrupt #GeordiesDemandAnswers Every PL tweet is still getting 75% spam its great I'm blocked by tag & I think budweiser also it's becoming annoying for them..

Fair play for this

I'm rather suspicious of who's behind that account.

Not so sure, wouldn't buy currently anyway.

Received a reply from Nick Brown: Thank you for contacting me regarding the recent proposed takeover of Newcastle United. I understand your frustration and share your concerns that the process was drawn out for so long. As I know you are aware, the Saudi Arabian-backed consortium said it has ended its bid to buy Newcastle United. The group included Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund PIF, PCP Capital Partners and Reuben Brothers. In April It agreed a £300m deal to buy the club from Mike Ashley. The deal was still being scrutinised under the Premier League's owners' and directors' test. They were seeking clarification of the links between PIF and the Saudi Arabian Government. The Premier League wanted to know who would have control, where funding would come from, and who would appoint the board. As the Member of Parliament for Newcastle Central, and therefore St James’ Park, my colleague, Chi Onwurah MP, has taken the lead on this issue. She has my support. She has written to Richard Masters, Chief Executive of the Premier League. In her letter she has asked a number of questions and called for the Premier League to be more transparent with fans. I have included a link to the letter here for your information https://chionwurahmp.com/2020/07/newcastle-united-football-club-failed-take-over/. I await the response of the Premier League. I support the questions Chi has asked and agree with the Newcastle United Supports Trust that the fans deserve answers. I believe that the Premier League should have engaged with fans throughout the process and would like to see the Premier League be more transparent. More generally, I support the case for an independent review of all aspects football governance. Thank you for contacting me about this important issue. With best wishes, Nick Rt Hon Nick Brown MP
