Facundo Ferreyra

The Kenyon letter was "leaked" via a pro-Ashley journalist and read like exposition from a badly written film (telling the other person things they should already know in order to fill the audience in on what was happening). I don't believe this is like that at all, and I don't believe Kenyon was ever really serious about buying NUFC, it felt more like he was just doing Ashley a favour.

The Central bar in Gateshead did the same thing. I bet he's gutted.....

I'm keeping the faith, lads. It's not over until we hear that the deal has fallen through. This "statement" hasn't done that. Staying positive for now.

Waiting on PL approval still, most likely. Who the fuck knows though

I know all of this flight tracking nonsense is probably a waste of time, but someone on Reddit has pointed out that the flight that people were tracking the other day (that went from Abu Dhabi > Newcastle > London) is moving again, this time to Massachusetts, where the Sheikh attended university. I have absolutely no idea why he'd go back there, but surely this is too much to be mere coincidence. Proof that he was indeed in the UK to tie up the deal? I don't know, and it's probably not worth looking into further. Feel like pure shit just want Ashley gone

Could be that PL are taking forever to complete whatever it is they're doing, and BZG haven't had a decision either way yet. Fingers crossed....

I very much doubt we've actually approached Steven Gerrard. He's in a job so compensation would need to be paid. Can you really see Ashley doing that when he could just hire some out of work nobody?

Probably praising the current owner to keep him buttered up until the deal goes through. Either that or he has actually been easy to deal with, unbelievable as that is

Oh.

Sounds like it's on to me, they haven't said "But Ashley is a fat bastard who ruined everything" .....yet

Got excited. Looked at his Twitter. Thump. Back to earth That Geordie Boot Boy/Burnsie bloke that everyone seems to hate said that he trusted this bloke and that he's never let him down before or something. So it's definitely 100% bollocks. Got a link? #clutching He appears to have deleted it, but he's posted this: https://twitter.com/BootGeordie/status/1147946249674461184?s=19

He's a gobshite cunt. Can't stand him.

There's also a screenshot further back in that thread of notes from a fans forum where the club basically say "ignore any reports in the media about a sale, all updates around it will come via the club". So basically, ignore whatever bollocks the Chronicle and Sky are spouting

No.

What a load of bollocks highly doubt he was hacked like.

Well I obviously don't believe them for a second

My turn to be an ITK, apparently. Got a message from a mate this morning who was on a night out last night. Apparently his mate works for an estate agent, and was told that Luis Figo has been enquiring about houses in Morpeth. This is obviously complete bullshit and makes no sense as the bloke has never managed before. Maybe he's coming out of retirement to play in midfield for us, he fits right in to Ashley's transfer blueprint being 46 years old....

"Mike Ashley didn't want to invest in the food for the prom due to the proposed takeover, this is surely proof that it's nearing completion!" Coming to some idiot's twitter feed soon.

Somewhat. Less than I was, but still hopeful. I know, I'm a fucking mug. Until I hear it's dead, I'll have that slight hope.

First sentence is true, they did buy SD's HQ. Sheik Khaled (is it the right one?) does seem to be in control of that bank (which might have merged with others). That bank and the Malaysian Provident Fund have done deals in the past. That's all available info from a 2 minute search. Whether it's true that it's a favour to Mike Ashley, f*** knows. I wouldn't put it past the c*** though. I mean, it's not as if the false/misleading statements BZG have put out inspire confidence in them. Or that Midhat loon on whatsapp. The whole things just f***ing strange, as usual with Ashley. And it always ends in no sale. I've done a quick search and can't find anything linking Sheikh Khaled Bin Zayed Al Nahyan to that bank like. I doubt it's the right one, unless I'm missing something obvious You're probably right, I'm not long up after a few last night. It's a crazy theory, but the way this saga has gone I wouldn't rule anything out. :lol: Who the fuck knows at this point? Nothing would surprise me now. Sheikh Khaled and Midhat Kidwai could turn out to be Kevin Nolan and Lee Charnley in disguise and it wouldn't shock me.
