  1. Nice interview with Alan Parry.
  2. This article from Craig Hope in late January somewhat went under the radar, but did confirm Ashley had been in Dubai. Prior to this it was claimed Ashley had just been hiring his jet out to rich associates for a trip to the sun. However, it wouldn’t be a wild guess to say he met with Staveley and possibly PIF on this trip. Now there’s the possibility he’s meeting with the Reubens at a time when travel is difficult. Join those dots....

  4. This cunt will be sick as a chip when the takeover is announced, almost approaching Delaney levels of bitterness.
  5. Could he not have just checked where that particular flight was going before it actually flew? Not sure if he could have done that mind, but just wondering. I prefer to believe rogue elements of the NUST board have been informed of developments taking place in the Bahamas.
  6. If I’m not mistaken the EFL also use Bird & Bird in disputes. I know who I’d want representing me in a dispute at the moment.
  7. Some prior knowledge here, NUFC Trust council member ?
  8. Straight through if rumours are to be believed that all the nominated directors have already passed the test. Absolute load of tosh from Masters that the test hadn’t actually begun, they had been fielding questions regularly via the club and not just on the separation issue.
  9. I know what you mean like. On the flip side I don’t think he’d have put his reputation on the line if he thought losing was a possibility. I may be very wrong here, but I'm sure I read someone on here saying he had to take the case when it came his way. Something about barristers and "Cab Rank"? Not sure if it applies here and I may have been dreaming Now that you mention it, that does ring a bell. Surely it can’t be the case though or I could hire him to help sue my neighbour for constructing their fence 10cm into my garden. It can’t be true as all the lawyers involved with both cases have been hand picked. Not saying this rule doesn’t apply in some instances, but certainly hasn’t happened here.
  10. It clears the path to getting deal done, the problem with the PL’s original offer of arbitration was that it was solely on the issue of separation. A delaying tactic to de rail the deal without rejecting it, as this would have led straight to the high court with a decision. The arbitration is based on the PL not conducting the test appropriately and if the PL lose the road map is there to conclude the deal.
  11. Keegan just gets this club and what it could be. Contrast that with the current incumbent and it’s certainly depressing. However, as Jimmy Nail sang about the river Tyne we will rise again.
  12. Jesus Christ who wants to read about Chopra’s crew in the other thread ! Supreme confidence in clubs case !
  13. Two of the greatest men in recent NUFC history, neither currently welcome or involved with club it’s tragic.
  14. Howay gdm he’s far more subtle than a bottle of newcy broon !
  15. gdm back on board the takeover express ! Choo choo
  16. Nice analogy, however Bob Shapiro was always regarded as the bloke who settled cases. For Johnny Cochrane, Bob Shapiro, Alan Dershowitz, Barry Scheck and F Lee Bailey. We can now read Shaheed Fatima, Nick De Marco and Robert O’Donoghue. Put simply the new legal dream team.
  17. Glad you’re coming round Wallsend, we’ll all be scrambling to get our season tickets back shortly. Must admit I've always erred on the side of it not happening but I do think there might just be a little glimmer of light there now. However it was even money on either it happening or not and someone gave me £50 to stake on it my money would still be on it not happening. Something's still bound to go wrong! Pessimism is ingrained through years of disappointment, however we’ve never had people with these credentials/wealth involved with the club before. Literally think where waiting on good news from Middle East and it’s done. I suspect the people involved know this good news is coming soon.

  19. Won’t be long before Bein is restored at this rate.
