Tony Evans is well connected a Liverpool fan. I dont think we want crazy money we want a club that tries and managed to be successful.

Let him ask..... Anything who can help to quicken our cause.

Whilst I lean towards the theory that it will get sorted and the sale will be completed, I don't think the resolution will involve BeIn Sport being broadcast in Saudi Arabia. I think the Royal Family will want local control of the broadcast into Saudi homes so they can control what advertising materials and affiliated content comes along with the broadcast. Saudi Arabia is a very-conservative country that finds many more liberal principles to be highly offensive so they would likely be intolerant of any extra content that comes along with the BeIn broadcast. So I suspect they will pay for KSA Sport to have it's own broadcast license - possibly paying some compensation to BeIn, via the Premier League as part of the license fee, so Saudi Arabia doesn't directly send money to its enemy. Agree. Like any other country, KSA can bid for the rights and show the PL locally. To do that now, they need to renegotiate with BeIN, cause they own rights for the whole MENA region (with KSA's approval) for another two years, if I'm not mistaken. It's extremely unlikely that Qatar and KSA will renegotiate anything right now - they have zero diplomatic relations. The possibility of KSA outbidding Qatar for the PL rights in the whole region is pie in the sky stuff. They don't have the expertise, nor the finance to do that. Nor the finance We are dealing with kids mind here. Wish I was a kid like. My username and my broken English might be doing me a disservice here but my posts on the topic appear far more researched than most on this thread. Sorry if I offended you but what I try to say is Bein was founded in 2014. All the Qataries did was hired Brits and pay them crazy money. Trust me The Saudis can create something similar quickly.

Yes I remain hopeful too. If you hear the pod on tyne podcast in this deal the most important thing is to agree with Ashley and make him sign the agreement which they did. It took months to reach to this point and it it not too hard or long from now on. Wait lads dont read of too much of negativity.

I think that’s undoubtedly part of the current hold up. It may not even need to be sorted for this to go through, but I think the prem will want some sort of assurance from Saudi going forward, either they allow Bein to broadcast in Saudi or they split the MENA region. I don't think they will split the current deal. It is more like allowing Bein to be broadcast legally for now.

If the government dont block it yes people of Saudi can get subscription from Qatar. The largest population from GCC countries is Saudi since season 2017-18 onwards Bein is blocked in Saudi.

This is the least of concession MBS has to make. A fair one in my opinion too. They have to stop this sillyness of blocking everything from Qatar and get subscription until 2022.

Cheers. The most difficult thing was to let Ashely go. Once they signed off on that the rest is easy.

Bruce always staying until the season finish lets not jump up on hate.

Pete is one of the nicest block around even from the Jan onwards he was that one who was saying this thing is happening.

Kinnear was right after all! calling him Cunt.

Yes but we really dont know when the transfer window start and ends to be frank. Obviously we are losing targets left and right. So grim Monday. We go into next season with no new additions and the out of contract players gone, we go down next season regardless of who owns us and manages us. Yes I read somewhere though next season the transfer window will remain open for the whole season.

When the takeover completed not now.

If this takeover completed he is the odds on favorite to be a manager.

Didn't he contradict that thought this week by saying the FA has been asking information regarding the piracy?

So what else can he say? I am not sympathetic your fiancee deserve the death? Such a click bait.

I was in a middle of something and when l saw what that troll says it gave me a profound scare. The thing is this is the best can happen to any football team in the world. I cant tell you guys how unlucky we were during the years. This takeover succeeded means everything for our team and our life. It is the single most important thing right now to keep me going.

George is one of the guys who never said it is close or done. If they are still asking for details about the piracy this week that means we are in long haul and nothing is imminent. Didn’t he say a out 4 weeks ago it was days away from being done ? Back then he said he believed 'it could be done by wednesday', which at that point will also have been what the buyers believed, but things change, it doesn't mean he was incorrect or giving out wrong info, he didn't claim it to be fact, he's always very careful about what he says. The only thing he's actually stated as outright is that 'it will happen', only time will tell if that's the case, as he said, it needs to play out which is what's happening now. Thanks. Back then we were all excited. l am referring two weeks ago when tons of Journo's telling us no red flag and it should be announced the following week. He didn't say non of that at that time.

George is one of the guys who never said it is close or done. If they are still asking for details about the piracy this week that means we are in long haul and nothing is imminent. He has said numerous times that it will be done, though. Yes it will be done he is positive in that aspect but he never said imminent and done already. He always says the buyers anticipated this all along and this needs to be played out.

Didn’t he say a out 4 weeks ago it was days away from being done ? Never. He always says it will be over when it is over. So far there were no red flags according to him but asking about piracy at this point is not a good info for us.

Who are the Exec committee members?
