PL has a lot on their plate for sure. Also think they know the optics. Either way the more time they take the more it looks like they are taking it very seriously. Tedium.
Daily Mail now rehashing more crap (thats been floating around today) about 10 clubs grouping together to block the sale. Let it end. I am sure the PL want it done and out the way as quickly as possible at this point.
The key word in their article is “could” ie made up bollocks.

It’ll be in the hands of the lawyers. The PL’s legal/compliance departments asking for info from the buyers, but will be in contact with whoever Staveley is using, and then they will be in contact with the legal teams of the Reubens and PIF separately.
I’d imagine Staveley is getting on with her life until she gets the call from her side to say it’s going ahead, but with so many different players it’s probably taking quite a while. I’m sure she’s getting updates on a daily or every second day basis.
At the end of the day, the PL can only act within the guidelines of their own rule book. It hasn’t changed yet so they could be in quite a lot of bother if they turned this down without good cause.
My hunch is that the restart date or if at all debacle is probably taking up most of their resources at the moment and would present a far more serious legal implications than this deal happening.
As GC has said, he’s been told there have been no red flags.. and that’s after nearly 5 weeks of this process happening..
I’m sure it’s close.

We filthy rich yet?
Still just catflap

Have we heard from the peeping tom yet?

Noticeable that Caulkin has not said a peep so far not sure if that's a bad sign or a good one. Seems like a few journalists (i.e. Graves) are saying their not commenting on the takeover until it's announced one way or another as obviously they're getting suck of all the hassle and questions directed at them.
Switched his phone off earlier. Was out dogging. He’ll be back on the case tomorrow

I've just worked out why they called the pirate broadcasters BeoutQ!!!
f*** me, I'm slow.
It’s like ripping off Virgin Media and calling it the Town Bike Network just to piss them off

still a non story. No proof. No evidence. 66% of the takeover has nothing to do with Saudi Arabia.
Not true, 20%
-
My theory (not that it means much): they've had this document for a few days, but they were going to wave it through anyway. Now whoever sent it has leaked its existence to the press as a last role of the dice to try and exert some external pressure.
Pure speculation but a solid theory. If they sent documents, you can be sure they were plentiful. Keep them busy

Caulkin is quiet right now, I assume he is trying to find out from Staveley If this is new information or not.
Imagine her at home shagging her husband and then Caulkin starts peering in the window.. “got an update Mandy”

Am so sick of this shit man.. why always us? Every other premier league club has had a lovely quiet lockdown. All the supporters have had to worry about is how they’ve been doing in the FIFA 20 tournament.
Not us though.. always cloak and daggers and fake news and click bait.
Why are we so emotionally invested in this club?

Qatar have the footballing world in their pocket.
Until now

They’re seriously rattled.
I’d imagine it’s the same information they presented to French courts which got dismissed.
If Saudi outbid Bein for the tv rights for the Middle East that would essentially make them irrelevant very quickly.
Keys and the other tool would be out of a job rather quickly.
It’s also far more likely to happen if Saudi have a direct interest in the PL.

New post on Rafa's blog this morning: http://www.rafabenitez.com/web/in/blog/difficult-times/135/
An update and insights on preseason training - half of which he did in China and half in Spain as the pandemic was hitting its stride. As you'd expect from Rafa, he is ever-inquisitive and, as a result, has thoughtful insights on how different places are handling the pandemic. Argh, I miss him being part of the Club so much.
The idea of Brucey even thinking to pay attention to the things Rafa talks about in depth (in a second language!), let alone learning from them, or, Hell, even cobbling together one coherent sentence on the subject . . . .
He sounds rather ingrained in the whole life there. Maybe that ship has sailed as far as nufc is concerned.

Who is the leader of the Clique?
Paully, without a shadow of a doubt.

This sub seems to have its regulars and anyone who pipes up with anything just gets slagged off and brushed off as a divvy.
That is possibly why the thread is constantly being browsed but no participation outside of the (cool) club is made that much.
Loads of ass hats in here. Shame really. Because this could be a good thread if it wasnt for a select few.
The Skunkers Sub calls for a Fatwah on this wum

Wonder if they’ve bought the .com domain from them.

The world is a shitty fucked up place and we need things to take our mind off it. Following this club is one of them, that’s been somewhat taken from us for the best part of 13 years. We’re now in a position where we might be able to enjoy it again. I care more about that then I do about the fucked up things that happen around the world.
I’m not going to be sorry or feel guilty about that. As much as the BBC or whoever want to push that narrative.

BBC running the Khashoggi fiancé story for the third time, slightly different quote this time.
It’s almost as if some agency was releasing press releases on her behalf....

Not the biggest stones fan, but if he’s available for £40m, wants to come and we want him then I’d be very happy.
and you need a Fede/Lascelles type in there too.
His name is Koulibaly ?

150-200 million on 4/5 players should do it.

I think we should lock this thread. Start a new one with a summary of what’s happened and only allow posts in the new one once something significant happens. ??♂️
