Shearergol Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Be interesting to see if the 3 signings happen in the next 3 days. Dont hold yer breath I don’t expect them at all. I do expect Rafa to walk next Monday though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie87 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 It's time to make Ashley's position at NUFC untenable. And the only way to peacefully do that is to not show up to matches, not buy shirts, not watch on TV, not go to Sports Direct. Which is simultaneously the exact opposite to what I want for NUFC under Rafa. But that's the only peaceful option we have. He's spat in the face of everyone of us with this takeover masquerade and led us all on like we're simpletons. The man has taken absolute liberties with an entire region of this country and he cannot be allowed to continue. May his remaining path through this life be laden with gross misfortune, the detestable toad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 The only hope I have is that as it is SSN reporting it (who MA is known to peddle lies through), this is just an attempt to force PCP’s hand. You're right, it could be. But from past experience we know it's straw-clutching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 In December, Staveley was in the media again in connection with the mooted takeover of Newcastle, photographed with the tycoon Richard Desmond, meeting Ashley at an Indian restaurant in Hampstead. Sources close to Ashley let it be known with some indignation that that was not a scheduled business meeting with Staveley. In fact, they said, Ashley is known to go to that restaurant with his wife regularly, and he was not expecting to have a business meeting with Staveley there. Staveley’s camp have not explained why she went to the restaurant to meet him, given that she was said by then to have made a formal offer for the club to Ashley’s appointed legal representative, Andrew Henderson of Dentons. That's just fucking weird tbh. It’s bullshit man. Ashley is telling these lies and everyone is fucking falling then. Why does that story come out a month later instead of the next day? Why has Ashley taken since the Liverpool game to say nothing’s been going on with PCP. Of course they have been in discussions with PCP, but that cunt either doesn’t want to seek or wants more money. Can’t believe people are honestly believing the side of the story coming from him and his media partners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know SD means more to him than NUFC. We need to take peaceful actions that will affect SD’s sales and affect the share price, that’s the only way the cunt is leaving.

Dr Venkman Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Am I the only one thinking that this is just a "tactic", and that the Takeover will still happen? Hmm, probably only me . . . That's exactly what it looks like to me. They pressured him with the leak of an improved bid, he reacts to pressure like a toddler. To me it reads like 'pay what I want or fuck off'.

St1pe Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I guess it’s somewhat interesting he’s said this now rather than at the end of the transfer window so he won’t have a ready made excuse as to why we haven’t bought any players. Maybe he will have to invest with no takeover looming? Financially he won’t want to be relegated for a 3rd time.... surely? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Oh dear Nothing much changes really, it's still all about staying up whether we were to be sold or not. It was too late now anyway for the incoming party to act. He now has to do all he can to help Rafa achieve safety, whatever sum that happens to be - not even for footballing reasons but for his own financial interest. A bit of respite for our great fan base from this takeover debacle is probably not a bad thing either, the players and the manager need us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Having become an expert in brinkmanship over the past eleven or so minutes, I'm convinced that this is definitely what this is. If they had the fans interests at heart (lol), they'd have announced something properly. That tweet is for Staveley, not us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
