dustynrg Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 WTF is this Graham Roberts thing about? It's now completely surreal. GRAHAM ROBERTS? He was sacked from his last job at Clyde or wherever for fiddling the expenses wasn't he? This is like a bad dream. Graham ROBERTS? Is he another pal of Llambias? Another Iranian type plant, because nothing else makes sense? Wait till you find out who is alongside him in the bid!!! Dennis Wise? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley's PR spokesman? That guy has the easiest job in history. J Brill - "Right Mike, what do you want me to say to the waiting press and Newcastle fans waiting for news?" M Ashley - "Tell 'em Fuck all" J Brill - "Done!" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Hughton already said Ashley did not talk about the takeover BUT even if he had Hughton was not going to say so, what just coz the Chron run with what Hughton said its all doom and gloom, nothing was going to happen today anyway. Tomorrow and Thursday may be the days or we may have to wait until Friday but howay lads we have waited this long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 What did you want? "Ashley tells squad club sold Shearer incharge tomorrow" Even if he had told them that Hughton was not going to be the one to break the news to the media, as soon as Moat seals the deal SSN will be told and the official site will have an update, could be tomorrow morning may not be for a few more days.

Guest johny2k Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 hughton didn't even know that Duff,Martins, Beye et al were sold probably until he read it on news now like the rest of us so him knowing whether Ashley was talking about takeover is highly unlikely. Nice guy but knows about as much as us it would seem! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I'm still convinced very little is going on behind the scenes. Having Moat at the match hasn't changed my pessimism regarding the sale of the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I don't see how the fact Ashley's trip to whever wasn't specifically to seal the deal immediately obliterates all of the "in discussions with Moat" stuff, calm down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how because Moat was sitting next to Ashley that anyone believes this thing is going to be done anytime soon. Nothing suggests that our takeover is close.

Scoreboard82 Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 It's gonna be sorted soon, one way or another, i reckon. Even confirming they are in talks is more than they usually let on. They don't have to say anything, so that makes me hopeful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pretty much suggests it to me. I can't see why either party would want to go through such a charade unless something was happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
