Sho Time Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Keith's definitely been playing FM, like. December : The Newcastle United board have placed an embargo on transfers as a result of the rumours surrounding a possible takeover. These restrictions will remain in place until the outcome of any takeover has been resolved. Feb 1st : Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley is thought to be close to pulling the plug on a consortiums proposed takeover of the club, claiming he had not seen evidence that the group possessed enough finance. The news will come to a disappointment to many who had previously thought the takeover to be progressing well. (suckers) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 There is the stench of a rat over all of this and I think many of us are right to be deeply cynical. I guess we will see what happens. As it is - come Feb 1st, the 'takeover' will be off, no cash will have been spent in January and Rafa will say that he is leaving come the end of the season. A classic from the Ashley playbook. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 It's pretty clear these are all friends of his that are happy to have him use their names in this way. In return they get a bit of a spotlight to stroke their silly egos. It's pretty dark stuff really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordie jamie Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 https://www.nufc.com Update: Takeover update Since Monday's unexpected announcement by Mike Ashley that he was in talks to sell the club and hoped that a deal could be done by the end of 2018, there's been the expected deluge of claims and speculation. Here's what we've been able to glean ourselves: The main bid is one spearheaded by the former Chelsea and Manchester United CEO Peter Kenyon and claims of interest from three further groups remain unverified. That uncertainty is claimed to be due to confidentiality clauses, but there remains a suspicion that claims of other interested parties are exaggerated in order to pressure the main bidder into action. It's understood that financial consultants working for Kenyon travelled to Tyneside earlier this week and have visited SJP in order as part of their own valuation. In order for that to happen, the proposed new owners would have had to satisfy specified financial criteria - but not deposit funds in a third party account as was previously claimed. The £300m asking price that has been bandied around isn't fixed in terms of a one-off payment and a form of down payment could be acceptable, given proof of sufficient funds. One major obstacle to a speedy takeover is that the formalities required to be undertaken by the Premier League take up to a fortnight - and will take longer at this time of year due to their festive closedown.

KaKa Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 It's a piss take man. Kenyon used to head up Umbro back in the day didn't he? Ashley currently owns a portion of Umbro even. Kenyon is also an ex Chelsea guy, and probably has ties with Dennis Wise somehow. They're all part of the same cesspool man. Just a bunch of pals having fun, taking the piss.

As i’ve said previously, kenyon is also best mates with Steve Gibson and Jorge Mendes. Whole thing is as transparent as always. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

polkaDot Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I can't see a football man like Kenyon going along with a cunt like Ashley to stitch up a whole football clubs fan base. I can see Ashley stitching up anyone who puts in a serious offer for the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
