Exactly

That doesn't make any sense they say no clauses and then say PCP are adamant about having a relegation clause which Ashley won't do. Make your mind up man.

I just think the whole 15th to 20th January thing is him looking at games where we can get people in to make a difference. We have Stoke on the 1st I think then it's Luton in the FA cup so you aren't going to get anyone in for Stoke so he is then looking at the 15th when we play Swanse and he wants players in for around then so they can start making a difference. I think those dates have nothing to do with the takeover.

Sounds plausible that Ashley can get rangers at a fraction of what he will receive here and at least triple the chance of seeing CL football. Guess who wins again? Thought that would be moot as CL sponsorship isn't arranged at that level. He'd get no Sports Direct exposure, or at least very little. Your right it's UEFA's own sponsors so far up in a ground for a CL game but he could easily have it on their strips I suppose. He would find a way. He might make all the players have tattoos of sports direct on their heads

Sounds plausible that Ashley can get rangers at a fraction of what he will receive here and at least triple the chance of seeing CL football. Guess who wins again? A lot of those shares are owned by fans and they won't sell to Ashley and King owns 51%. He would need to own 30% and then he would have to make a offer but the fact the fans and King hate him doubt they would sell. Mind you if Kings that skint he could pull a fast one.

It will get very ugly up there if he does. There is enough idiots in their support for one of them to try and get to him. No f***ing way Ashley walks into that shitstorm like, I mean if there was money in the game there maybe but there are surely no upsides for him in buying them out. I agree with this absolutely no way he would go anywhere near it again.

Just had a read through some Rangers forums and nothing about Ashley buying the club. They do mention King has been ordered to make a offer of 20p a share to the remaining Rangers share holders that equates to £11 million but they are under no obligation to accept it and why would they the shares are worth 27p at the moment. King is apparently skint though so can't even afford the 20p a share.

Might as well lock this thread down we aren't going to hear anything now till after Christmas. All the lawyers today will be out for black eyed Friday and will be off all of Christmas.

Reckon this is the most plausible theory so far. It's probably in the club's interests for things to be uncertain at the moment, so we don't get rinsed on fees. Even if it's causing us all blood pressure problems. I'm firmly of the belief that the next major update will be something official. I want to believe but I can't quite manage it. Just noticed your profile pic Ian W. If you look at the full picture for that you can see my head popping up above the bloke in the brown leather jacket ;D Its when we had that little hut as the club shop. Great memories.

What if you combined the two, and you woke up to find Mike Ashley sucking your dick, pausing to say the club had been sold. Acceptable? If it resulted in him finally selling, I'd take one for the fans. You do release the Chronicle will pick this up as a Takeover update in tomorrows back page. Headline: Newcastle Fan willing to be sucked off by Ashley It will be some of Lee Ryder's best work. ;D

Bob Moncur knows jack. They don't tell him anything anymore. Not sure what he even does at the club apart from the odd tour.

Its all went very quiet even the #NUFC is spookley so. Hopefully calm before an announcement.

If we are relegated he will not get back what he has put in. To be honest he would have to stay in the premier league every season to get the money but even then with every other club spending and getting a better squad he wouldn't be able to take any money out as that would have to be spent on new players so we can just stay in the Prem. The only way he has a chance on making his money back is selling now.

Seemingly lots on there that want Rafa out. They are lunatics on there. That PeterboroughMag or whatever his name, is a Right wind up merchant.

The lad on Newcastle Mad Forum who said it was sold before the £300 million bid was announced by the journalists has just posted again and he is adamant it has been sold and everything is ready for January. I really hope so it got to the point today where I couldn't listen to the match on the radio it was just depressing I had to turn it off.

Fuck me surely it's not fucking complicated. The longer this goes on the price of the club will tumble. If he doesn't spend in January we will be relegated he will then have to put more money into the club and will never have a chance to get his money back. Honestly man someone needs to go and give their heads a shake.

Why is nothing ever straight forward with this club man. Just fucking sell the club you fat leach.

I agree with the current squad I would say 85% chance we would be relegated unless they all get the fingers out their collective arses and get this fucking takeover done.

No its the bloke that writes for True Faith. Very bitter man.

I have a scenario I have just thought of based on nothing but just guess work. What if during this curry meeting there were 2 scenarios discussed one involved a win against Everton, which would ease everyone's possible relegation fears and would mean relegation clause removed and £300 million pound up front plus other stipulations involving Europe etc. The other scenario was lose to Everton and the £300 million would still be paid up front but if relegated an amount is paid back. Everyone shakes hands happy but Ashley is a sneaky bastard he thinks there is no way I am going accept this relegation clause so I will leak this £300 million agreement which includes the Europe clauses but not the relegation ones. Then if we don't beat Everton the are backed into a corner as it looks like they are going back on what was agreed. Oh my I think I have been brain washed by Wraith and Martins heeellllppppppppp

I just realised Staveley is in the background ;D class

When this takeover talk started Michael Martin claimed the group who wanted to buy us were from Egypt that's how good his sources are.

Steve Wraith claiming to be in the know again on twitter and saying the takeover is as far away from happening as it has ever been. How the fuck does he know man, and before anyone replys with he has regular meetings with Rafa, why the fuck would Rafa have regular meetings with him. Do you think he wants to know about the time be was best mates with the Krays. I tell you why he is saying that he is trying to get people to retweet him so he can sell all of the tat he advertises on his twitter.

Nothing in that article would point to several journalists being wrong about a £300 million pound deal. Also in regards to the Daily Mails £30 million budget 5 days ago they were saying Staveley was sticking to her £250 million price and wasn't going to budge now he knows all the finer details of a deal and what Benitez is going to get. Bollocks

So does this mean that HTT was indeed correct with his guess.
