Dave Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Re the FA/PL ratification, do they have to make it public when they begin that process or could we theoretically be on day 29 now? Can't see why it would have to be made public, but i also can't see it not being leaked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Without reading up on it I'd guess the whole 30 days thing is just the amount of time they say they need anyway. Doesn't mean it would take that long in every instance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer this goes on the price of the club will tumble. If he doesn't spend in January we will be relegated he will then have to put more money into the club and will never have a chance to get his money back.

Guest chopey Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 If Ashley is keen to sell why the hell would he spend £40 million on new players for a club he doesn't want ? Staverly wants us because of our 52000 fans and the current and future TV deal of course a deal will be done before Christmas it was sealed with a curry last week new players will arrive and we will be safe by Easter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly man someone needs to go and give their heads a shake. Ashley has no choice, he HAS to keep Benitez and he HAS to keep us in the Premiership, otherwise he loses the deal and a whole lot of money. He has to spend now and make sure he keeps Rafa happy and keeps us in the Premiership or he's out of pocket serious money and left with a club no one wants that is likely to be relegated and with very little chance of bouncing straight back up with any manager worth his salt not wanting to touch us. He lucked out twice in the championship with two great managers at that level, it won't happen again. Surely he's not that stupid, he must see his back is firmly against the wall.

Toonjam88 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 The lad on Newcastle Mad Forum who said it was sold before the £300 million bid was announced by the journalists has just posted again and he is adamant it has been sold and everything is ready for January. I really hope so it got to the point today where I couldn't listen to the match on the radio it was just depressing I had to turn it off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope so it got to the point today where I couldn't listen to the match on the radio it was just depressing I had to turn it off. There'll come a time in the future when we'll look back and tell ourselves that it was obvious that the deal was going to go through eventually. Hopefully that time is sooner rather than later. However, living through it now is very frustrating and it's testing everyones patience to the limit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperFlat Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Still think that curry night was the sealing of the deal, like. It fits too well with everything we know about how Ashley does business. With the amount of journalists that reported the 'agreement' at the same time, there's no way that wasn't put out by the club. Assuming Rafa's line of not knowing how much he has to spend is to attempt to protect us from being fleeced during negotiations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa doesn't look like a man who knows he's going to receive a war chest - he looks more like someone who knows he's getting nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I posted earlier that I think it's a case of when instead of if. Concrete news has been positive, speculative nonsense by reporters that don't really report on us and by utter morons has made a few cynical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no takeover and there will be no big spend in January. Proper mugs believing every single outlet, absolute tools. Definitely a ruse. Ashley has fabricated the whole story to take the piss out of the Geordie nation , can't believe people can't see it. He'd happily se us relegated to teach us a lesson. Stupid fans.
