SUPERTOON Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Well isn't that muppet Roberts speaking to the club today? I can't believe they'd compelte the Moat deal without at least listening to that willy first. Hopefully by now they know he's full of s*** and Moat's deal will conclude tomorrow. If Moat was going to complete a deal, then they wouldn't be entertaining any offers, particularly offers as ridiculous as the supposed Roberts one.

Skirge Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 DL- Right Mr Roberts it all sounds very good, prove you have the £100mill and we can move on Roberts - okay great we will be in touch very soon 1 month ticks by, 2 months tick by DL - The Fanbase group failed to provide proof that they had the money to buy and run the club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By now you must realise that Fat Ashley is after as much money as possible, if that bloke can offer more than Moat without him needed to be his guarantor, are you telling me he'd turn his nose up at such a deal? Personally I reckon he's considering it, just because it would sum him up as a complete cunt! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I honestly dont believe Ashley would sell to just anyone regardless of their intentions. He is a stubborn b****** but i dont go along with this theory that he is vindictive. I think Moat has been identified by SP as the preferred bidder, Ashley sees Moat as the preferred bidder by the showcase on Saturday. I think the Barclays thing is the hold up and DL is meeting FANS 429798127936 curtacy. I believe Barclays have given Moat an answer by now, and the hold up is one of two things 1. Barclays have asked him to come back with further guarantees, especially in regards to further funding 2. Barclays have ok'd the overdraft and the finer details eg ASs contract, are just being finalised Lets hope for all our sakes that option 2 is where we are at!

Scottish Mag Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Not that I believe anything I read regarding the takeover anymore but I thought I would share this with you from Toontastic... Been advised there will be an announcement on Friday, also heard couple more interesting snippets, Shearer was definitely at the training ground when Assley turned up in his copter and expect John Carver and not Dowie. From a reliable sauce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisjraby Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I would love to see Carver back as Shearer's assistant, but come on, where are people hearing these rumours?! I wonder how long it'll be until someone has heard the third consortium after us are Ant and Dec, using their mass fortunes gained from rigging gameshow phone ins...

JH Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 If Shearer was at the training ground, they wouldn't have been able to hide it from the press who were camped out there. Crap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzle Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 We need Moat to takeover so we can have a Geordie owner, manager (Shearer), assistant (Carver) and captain (Taylor). Not that I'm some xenophobic freak I just think it's nice in this age of multi million pound deals and foreign ownership to have a bit of local pride.
