et tu brute

Known Cheryl from an early age as she’s one of my nieces best mates. She’s a nice lass actually.

He’s desperately trying to get a job.

Think you will get a bit from the consortium thanking him for his efforts. Don't be surprised if Sky have an in depth interview with him down the line though.

Him and Edwards will just use the piracy settlement get out clause.

I remember when the takeover initially collapsed last year, I think they had nearly a 1000 pages within a week taking the piss, they're certainly not laughing now. The fume is going from their disgust of our support wanting the Saudi regime, to the fact that no way will we be spending big money. Seething the cunts are - watch and weep you mackem cunts.

Honestly think it's a done deal. The mainline anti/negative media twats from last year are even reporting it is, and they are the ones with the Premier League/BEIN sources.

Agree, but it’s a nice extra bonus being the richest club in the world.

Tell you what has been amazing today, is the countless positive reports and not having those shattered within a moment by a counter negative report. Even the usual anti/negative suspects have went overboard this time in a positive direction.

Golden goose

Pretty tasty and totally seething

Did this plane schedule actually happen?

Exile1968 has landed

Yeah obvious piracy was the issue, but PL need to say further agreement has went ahead to save face and questions I would have thought

Wish this thread had a fucking automatic refresh

He's the last fucker I would take note of after last time

That did cross my mind

Looks like it was all down to the piracy issue if that's the case.

Wasn't he one of the anti-brigade also?

Or they could just say PIF have provided further information.

Twat, stealing my thunder

True, but even the ultra negative crowd are reporting things differently this time.

So was that passenger list likely not bullshit then?

Not if it has just been agreed as Ashley wouldn't postpone any CAT case based on assumption. It's by no means a given that it will push through the takeover, but one stumbling block, and a pretty big one in terms of BEIN and the PL has now been removed. Just have to wait and see what the fallout is from here, as I agree with you that if it is related, then the takeover should be pushed through quite quickly.

Thing is though it looks like this is not rumours and is actually factual, whereas previously it was just rumours of SA lifting the ban. This is pretty significant news and a major hurdle removed,
