I don't there was ever a deadline, the timings were guesses. Don't understand this at all mind, appreciate the unprecedented circumstances we're all in, but you'd imagine the league have an actual deadline to work towards, can't just run on forever

I don't think I can face watching NUFC under Ashley and Bruce again, I'll most likely be done with English football in fact. However, I doubt that'll be a sentiment widely shared mind, think when football does start up again, people will be desperate to get back no matter who's in charge.

I'm sure Penn will be around later to provide something

Also said there's substance to reports of premier league teams opposing the deal

What absolute rubbish, there’s been a post from that lunatic GeordieDean that’s been roundly criticised from everyone on here So your response is insinuating the club would be better off going bust because of it

Surely they do though? Aren't the owner's test conducted within a specific time-frame? Also the exclusivity supposedly ends mid-May. Do they not have a deadline to get it done by?

Fucking hell, the man is beyond parody

That's that then At least those two American bidders will be back in any day now...

If this takeover doesn't happen, think I'll be done with English football I can't face going back to the status quo of Ashley and Bruce with no end in sight

We’ve got 4 quality CBs, five really when you include Clark How many do you actually want? There’s some strange revisionism on here regarding our defenders, we’ve got a real good bunch

He's not a step up on our best defenders in any sense

Especially with Sterling's downturn in form

Agreed, don't see the point of it at all

In a tricky position considering Yedlin only has a year left on his deal Ideally, Krafth and Yedlin would leave and Manquillo kept on, but that also depends on Manquillo agreeing a new deal Plus if Yedlin is pushing for a move anyway (talk that he wants to go back to Seattle), makes sense for all involved to work something out.

Sounds like he's away in the next transfer window, whatever happens I think it's for the best of all parties, hasn't been able to kick on as much as we all hoped

Hope this season gets cancelled now so Bruce can't send us down, no matter how remote the possibility

That Benfica side was absolutely awesome, criminal how they didn't win the Europa

Terrific manager, would be a good appointment

Please just stop posting Wraith and anything he says

There are no other groups interested in any case, wouldn’t have gotten to exclusivity stage if there were Drawing inspiration from a possible Wolves model isn’t particularly relevant, considering their success is down to their links with Jorge Mendes and his production line of talent

Aye mate, be fucking great if Ashley was replaced by some American consortium who took money out of the club instead and didn’t bother to invest in the city. An American consortium would be Ashley’s version of Newcastle with a different name above the door. The target would still be 17th, the cups would still be ignored, Bruce and others like him would still be our manager, and European football would be a tale to tell the grandkids and something they would dare to dream of. Agreed, the supposed American consortium would be dreadful

By any chance is it Peter Kenyon with a broke American consortium allowing Ashley to keep all merchandising and advertising rights?
