Not really getting this thread title are yous? Wrong thread! There’s some miserable c***s on here who just can’t help themselves unfortunately. The admin need to invoke an emergency rule to ban any c*** breaching the spirit of this thread with immediate effect. Well calling people c***s and asking for them to be banned is massively negative and 'breaching the spirit of this thread' :lol:

I absolutely adore its lopsidedness and I'd hate to see us move away from SJP for most of the reasons listed by Haydn above. It's already architecturally imposing in its current location, fantastically so. I'll never understand this ravenous desire some people have for a brand new site. It's all pie in the sky stuff at the moment anyway, so in this little fantasy land I'd buy the Strawberry Place land back and expand over it in some way. Some sort of sloping design that meets with a renovated East Stand would be ideal. That’s the great thing though isn’t it we all like our own thing. I certainly wouldn’t want some soulless new bowl, however in this dreamland of a Saudi takeover I just think we could build something that would be the envy of everyone. The arena location would be a tremendous visual on the river and for people entering the city.

It’s certainly easy to dismiss these accounts, however similar to the RyanEMaine twitter account, they have no previous links to Newcastle and both reside in the big smoke. Yes treat with caution but it’s not beyond the realms people working in the financial and legal fields in London will have knowledge of things going on. I would certainly rather be able to read these things and make up my own mind, and if nothing else it gives us all something to talk about. Certainly some of these people who have abused the lad on twitter have a bolt loose and are taking matters to a ridiculous level of seriousness. We all want information that is why we read these threads so just enjoy it for what it is. Some information will be shite but for fucks sake let’s not give ourselves a coronary over it.

Unless they can move Leazes terrace brick by brick, I just can’t see how any ambitious owner could build something to match Spurs etc on our current site. As much as I love St James it is completely restricted in what we can do with it. Fifteen thousand people are stuck up in the gods with a debatable view and it currently looks like 2 separate stadiums stuck together. A new purpose built facility at the arena site with great sight lines for everyone, a large single tier stand behind one of the goals, better acoustics, stands closer to the pitch, better hospitality and something architecturally imposing and striking as visitors enter the city would be far superior to St Jame’s.

That’s the spirit.

Why would you be negative to him? Because he is lying for attention maybe? What is this negative bile, let’s keep to the spirit of what Jinky Jim intended for this thread. The old saying if you’ve got nothing good to say, then say nothing should apply when in here. I’m all for positivity but let’s try not just post any old s**** that’s on twitter I’d be as well saying I’ve 100% heard it’s gonna happen. It’s positive but it’s total bollocks The only criteria for this thread is positive optimism and the above tweet meets the criteria. Anyone who doesn’t want to stay positive.....fine........but stay in the other thread......this one is for those who feel good reading anything that puts a smile on their face...be it twitter tweets or hearsay comments heard in the local chippy Perfectly summed up Jinky it’s good fun and shouldn’t be taken seriously. I personally love reading stuff like this and to be fair to the kid he is sticking by his guns. A random Chelsea fan who hasn’t tweeted about us ever, who’s to say he hasn’t heard something.

The fact he’s a Chelsea fan I’m going to give home the benefit of doubt, had he been Grimsby Town no chance.

I like the way you spun that positively.

Only one place for a tweet like this.

The Seattle stadium with a view of the city at one end is spectacular. I think Minnesota and Atlanta’s new stadiums have big glass windows at one end, if we could frame the river and bridges at one end it would be breathtaking. Let’s just hope the council don’t ear mark it for student accommodation, before any new owner can explore the possibility.

Yep. On Wraiths podcast a few weeks ago he could hardly keep a straight face when talking about it with Liam Kennedy. What a load of f***ing rubbish. :lol: Put in another link for Wraith’s podcast mate, him and the Geordie Dentist have clearly been bang on about the takeover since its inception I’ll stick a link up next Tuesday just for you.

Yeah I'm with you, that makes no sense. I think Kennedy is making too much of the takeover recently. He's the only journalist actively covering it and he went big on the NCSL stuff and specifically said they'd take the PL to court which hasn't happened. There is no way Wraith is his source, Wraith knows next to nothing imo and neither do the dentist or the other guy. I do think Kennedy is reporting in good faith but he is wrongly getting people's hopes up with concrete evidence. He always caveats his articles with the fact he's "hopeful" rather than "confident" but he's really pushing the positive narrative hard and I can't stand his "join the dots" nonsense. I would love for the takeover to go through and I do think there is stuff going on with regards to Ashley's legal action/arbitration but I genuinely don't think anyone knows how it's progressing outside of those directly involved. Like f***ing kinder garden in here. He said, they said, dont tell tales. It's all Twitter s****! Not sure I get your point? I'm just saying Kennedy is pushing a positive takeover agenda when no other journalists are so I'm sceptical of the information he's reporting. I've then used the NCSL stuff as an example of something he said would happen (taking the PL to court following the LBA they issued) that didn't turn out to be true. I didn't realise expressing an opinion was an offence. How hasn’t that turned out to be true? It’s still a ongoing process. Do you expect everything to happen within a couple of weeks? No, of course not. But Kennedy reported they would be going to court once the timeframe within the LBA had been served and that hasn't happened as it? Therefore it's turned out to not be true. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure all of that was at least 4-6 weeks ago which is already nearly a quarter of the way in to the 5 month timeframe he gave for the NCSL action to be resolved. Instead we're back to lobbying MP's which seems a touch desperate. It's ok to ge in the "I want to to happen camp" but still question some of the information given from those most positive about it. Not sure I follow you here. You are complaining because a 5 month time frame hasn't been followed through within 4-6 weeks? I'm not complaining, just sceptical that LK reported something that hasn't happened. He said following the timeframe provided within the LBA elapsing NCSL would follow through on their promise and commence legal action/start court proceedings. He was emphatic on this point on numerous occasions. He has since admitted they may not take the matter to court and that (along with the fact no other journalist is covering the story to the extent he is) makes me a bit sceptical about the rest of his coverage on the takeover. I've been viewing/reading the forum for a long time without posting much and I know those on the "it won't happen" side of the fence aren't received well and rightly so in some cases because it's clear they are just here go aggrevate the situation and wind people up. For clarity I genuinely want it to happen and like everyone else I believe it is clear discussions of sorts are on going which means it's still alive and could happen. I just think it's healthy to question things that haven't played out how it was reported they would. All what you have said there is healthy scepticism which no one should have a problem with. What I would say is that Liam Kennedy has said it’s a constantly changing situation and there are a lot of balls in the air. My take is the NCSL action is co-ordinated, and if arbitration is moving forward maybe they have been told to hold off for now. I now think we may be at the point where they’re trying to thrash this out without any legal action taking place.
