5-0 defeat - all pens and toon to have 3 sent off - Darlo to go in 1st min for time wasting. No way will the toon be allowed to progress in this league!

He’s been the most accurate throughout this process and that thread seems like the most plausible set of circumstances. Really so PL 'No Comment' but then apparently tell the times reporter their side. This is all bullshit. Its either no comment or come out with a statement like the club has. This is just like infant school when you used to get your mate to say something to the girl you liked cause you were to scared to face up it. Fucking shambles and the government should look at dismantling the Premier League!

Personally I think the takeover is dead but I so want Ashley to take on the Premier League so we hear about what happened in Court of Law. Papers are full of shit and basically just writing things based on own allegiances. We need to hear what happened in a court setting so we can see both sides about what actually went on. I think the Toon have been shat on and denied a takeover but Im sure others think differently.

NUST have done literally nothing wrong in this. Dont start turning on each other now, when now we should be united more than ever against the PL.........splitters!

Yea I’m a bit baffled by this. That’s how I see it too. You can't "sue" until the bid is first rejected. You can't "appeal" until there is something to appeal against. That is why everyone (well, some of us) are so positive now, even a little bit more positive than we always have been. If you don't get accepted when it clearly (Chelsea/Man City-wise) should be, then a clear rejection is the next best thing. That Club Statement by Ashley leaves absolutely NO room for doubt, none whatsoever. He wouldn't have said any of that if he wasn't very, very certain of his ground, and by that I mean his 'legal' ground. Off we go !! It really is quite absurd this whole O&D test. The reason it was brought in was to protect the club from new owners that couldn't support it financially or from criminal elements. Now it seems to have evolved into some else entirely. You have a willing buyer, a willing seller and a fan base that is 95% behind the takeover and yet the O&D test is being used to stop the sale. Seriously what the fuck is going on as its clearly a restriction of trade.

all new players, talk the same shit, when they join a team. Sure the PL have online course for them "What to say when joining a new club - 101"

Clever decision by Wilson there. By not taking the number 9, he is not heaping pressure on himself from the off.

The obvious response is that every conversation is being held privately now so her not talking publicly is a good thing. Roll on the summer 2021 takeover saga. A more obvious response is that there's nothing going on so there's nothing to say That's the one I agree with. Its soooooooo obvious what is going on............Staveley will win her case against Barclays and use the money to buy NUFC with the Reuben brothers. Armaco will then do a sponsorship deal with NUFC for £80M a year and then Saudis will bid and win TV rights in MENA and finally.............PIF will then buy into NUFC taking majority share off Staveley/Reuben Bros. Sooooo obvious!

So Ryan, we have great plans here at NUFC. We aim for 17th place every year, we play s*** football, you will be ignored by your teammates but dont worry we only get 20% possession every match anyway. You get your own wheelie bin...........oh and the bacon sarnies are to die for. Plllllllllllleeassssse sign! Are you certain of that? Pushing the boat out to get this one across the line!

Don’t Panic!

So are you saying, if PIF come back as lumberjacks then there's a chance............ :frantic:

Chronicle is shite. 5 things we copied from Twitter. Shite rag

The reason people won't let this go is because if it is actually dead, then NUFC is dead. Just look at us man, cap in hand begging for free transfers. Meanwhile Man City put together a £640m deal for Messi. We won't compete, we cant compete and so what is the fucking point?

It’s a conversation to be had between the PL and the consortium - for sure, but that should be on the PL’s terms and not demanded by a broadcaster/country with an ulterior motive. It also fails to explain the significant and unnecessary delays in the process, by the PL’s own reckoning. What evidence is there it was demanded by Qatar? But let’s say there is evidence, as a customer why don’t they have a right to speak up if someone that is stealing their broadcasting rights are about to buy a club? BECAUSE THERE IS NOT MEANT TO BE ANY OUTSIDE INFLUENCE.....

Burn Baby Burn. Ding dong the Toon is dead Mmmm wonder if now is the time to buy a season ticket...........

This Friday is key!

Well he sure is hell aint coming for the great passing and move football, progressive management and competing to win, reputation that NUFC has!

More completely "made up" rubbish. The situation remains as i outlined it a few posts back, and will remain that way until we actually hear (are told) the final result. Nothing to (pretend to) report until then. You are literally pretending there is still talks going on. Nothing whatsoever points to that being the case Can't you see?? I am not "pretending" anything at all, I'm not 'understating' anything, I'm not 'overstating' anything . . at all! Until Ashley and / or Staveley say it is dead, it is (obviously) still ALIVE. It can't be anything else!! Dude, what are you on about? You are beyond denial I hope you are trolling... What are you saying all that for, did you not read my post. There is NO (amongst other things) "denial" Just waiting to hear some one (a real person involved in this, Staveley or Ashley) actually say it is dead or it has happened. It has to be one or the other. Nothing has been said yet, by anyone who knows / matters. Just wait! When is this clown getting banned? Has continually posted nonsense about the takeover definitely happening throughout this whole thing despite having no clue what is going on. It was funny at the start now it's just annoying. If you are so adamant its over, why the hell are you still looking in the thread? Are you like those god fearing folk that have to persuade everyone your view is right..........All hail to ale!

Man, how far we have fallen. But dont worry, the Pl O&D test is protecting NUFC.........

If Carlsberg did Toon Takeovers........ NUFC needs something as its in a deathly tailspin at the moment but Brucey boy doesn't or refuses to see it.

I find it absolutely baffling it’s just been dropped without answers. No journalists has really done a post-mortem on what happened. We’ve basically been told to keep going by Staveley, Rick rolled by her husband and the media and NUST have all apparently let it go since the Premier League meeting and the fan base has been told a grand total of f*** all. We’re now into Bruce down playing our chances this season, absolutely awful transfer targets and all of the media types that looked down on us wanting the Saudi deal now seemingly going missing while Ashley continues to run us as close to the line as he can get away with. Nicely summed up. I try not to think of it as it’s depressing. NUFC is pretty much a non sporting entity now. Utterly pointless following them except for morbid curiosity

An also ran team

Is this serious? He could be writing a book etc. The ABC of failed NUFC takeovers by George Caulkin Colours of Flags by George Caulkin Really, of all the journalists throughout this whole takeover, who have baited and wrote utter crap about the takeover, Caulkin is the one you go after........ Trying going after the Chronicle, Mail, Telegraph, Guardian journalists. Not an investigative bone in their bodies. Read Twitter and write a piece about 5 things I've made up!

Hope she didn't accept the invite to the Saudi Consulate
