Happinesstan Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Didn’t Ryder say in some podcast this week that he knew who one of the other interested parties is, but couldn’t say who it is. "I know who killed JFK but I'm not allowed to say." Give that man a pulitzer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Due to the costs involved in creating and maintaining the data room we won't be investing in the squad in January. Can see it coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 The only reason I think Ashley might (maybe) not ask for unrealistic money is because of Benitez. If we don't get bought it's pretty safe to say that Rafa won't be here for long and with Rafa gone there will be chaos again and our value without him as manager will lower quite a lot I imagine. Or maybe I'm just trying to convince myself/desperately hoping for it to happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 For f***s sake, somebody start a rumour at least! this. Few quiet days (which everyone knew was coming) and the razor blades are coming out. I'm sticking with the idea that fatty won't want to fuck this up, NUFC will never be worth more than it is now while he's here. He wants out. It's happening. I hope.

If they pull out due to uncovering something, we’ll hear about that - if we hear nothing, it means due dilligence is progressing and we’re getting closer.

Sir Toon Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 We dont even know for certain that due diligence is in progress and even then, if it is, we haven't got a starting point to know when the end date could be. So until the denials or news of any potential deal collapsing comes then we're going to get a frustration point eventually. There's something like 9 and a half weeks until the window opens which is a big thing in itself as in Plan A (The Ashley led doing just enough to get 17th or above plan) or Plan B (Any takeover funds trying to get the best placing possible). The frustration will come from January passing and the club still being in Ashley's hands. If it is then there will be no sale in my opinion. That makes a 13 week window for me to get this done. One point of interest though is the disappearance of many of the usual Toon journos. Have they all signed NDA's? They're usually full of something or other. Been quiet for a while.

Wilson Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Think It's pretty certain due diligence is started tbh. As for local journos, they've pretty much exhausted everything they know, hence doing articles on Staveleys 2014 interview, speaking to other people in the financial world to see what the club could be valued at etc. I'm happy to sit tight and assume all is going well, if it wasn't going well, we'd hear something.

I think we can say with reasonable certainty PCP are, it's been in the news for the last few weeks and if it wasn't the case they'd have denied it by now. As the Turkish biscuit man did. The other supposed 4, well, there's no evidence that they even exist tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
