Guest The Little Waster Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Okay, I know the timing is suspicious, but for people claiming this is a PR stunt, what the fuck does Kenyon get out of this exactly? A few £ in his sky rocket from Fatman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Ugh I don't fucking know. Two connected matters are extremely prevalent, though: A - It's a leak, meaning it was written with the intention of being read by the masses, therefore meaning: B - It's worded disingenuously. Reiterating that horseshite about the new owner being appropriate, for instance; get lost, man. Who knows who's up to what, but there's no real cause for optimism here.

HaydnNUFC Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Okay, I know the timing is suspicious, but for people claiming this is a PR stunt, what the fuck does Kenyon get out of this exactly? A big fat brown envelope from Uncle Keith? Doubt he would need such an envelope, given the salaries of directors at football clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooonDoom Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 This seems so obviously leaked by Ashley. So much of it just happens to back the message he is trying to get out. ‘I would like to personally assure you that I am committed to conclude our deal as soon as possible’ Implies that deal is agreed and it’s all on Kenyon to conclude by getting the funds. Take pressure off Ashley. "We have both spent many months discussing the parameters of a final deal and as you know we have also invested heavily in time and money on our various legal and financial advisors. Try to kill off rumours that they are mates and the whole thing is bullshit to relieve fan pressure. "And I appreciate the time and effort committed to the detailed discussions by your advisors, lawyers, club, and, of course, yourself. Kill rumours that Ashley is a cunt negotiation changing the goalposts. "I fully respect your desire to ensure the next owners of Newcastle United understand the club, football, and have the appropriate financial resources, and I am delighted that you think the investor group led by myself is the best fit. Try to make Ashley look like a good guy with best interests of the club at heart. "On my side, I would like to personally assure you that I am committed to conclude our deal as soon as possible and, while we are both perhaps frustrated that we have not progressed as quickly as we would have wished, I would like to express personal gratitude for your patience and integrity in this matter and hope we can continue our discussions in the same spirit." Again try to make it look like Ashley is serous about selling. If this letter is real it’s fucking amazing how it ticks so many boxes for Ashley’s agenda.

Aye, if anything, I was more optimistic before this A nice 'open letter' to the fans just after the fans open letter to fatty. Fortunate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 If it’s genuinely a leak from Kenyons side then MA won’t be happy. I can say with certainty that they have both incurred major costs thus far. The timing is particularly off with this though. I wonder if Fatty has asked Kenyon to leak it to appease the masses/buy time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I know nothing about him but I get PFM vibes from Kenyon. Bloke looks like he loves a night out with Dennis Wise and the lads. You’d be surprised how accurate this may turn out to be. He keeps below par company in a footballing sense. Somewhat bizarre. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Kenyon being paid off to pretend to buy a club and release false quotes just to appease the masses is like right below 9/11 truther/moon landing hoaxer levels of crazy imo. Not that I have any hope of it occurring. Think fatty is just wasting Kenyon's time (to appease the masses, admittedly) tbh. But I don't think there's anything more at play.

I can also say for sure that his side have spent huge amounts of time and therefore money on legals etc. I’ll also go on the record as saying I’ve got big doubts it’ll be a positive other than Ashley being out of the picture.

r0cafella Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 He's probably paying one of the big four consultancy fees auditing fees etc. Make no mistake this deal will cost a lot of of money.

Ketsbaia Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I'm even less optimistic after that 'letter'. Such an obviously concocted PR strategy that will oh-so-coincidentally have a Feb 1st twist. What a shock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 What's going on. You honestly reckon Kenyon's going to be in on that intricate a conspiracy? Howeh, man. He's obviously genuine, as we've got numerous various sources that have confirmed that. It's now just about whether Ashley's using the genuine interest for his own means, or whether he'll fuck it up being himself. I don't think for a second that it'll end up happening, but that doesn't mean Kenyon's in on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
