  1. 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.

  2. 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.

     

     

  3. 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

  4. 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.  :smitten:

     

    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.

  5. 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

  6. 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.

  7. 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 ?
