Klaus Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Why would the story leaking cause it to fall apart anyway? Absolute bullshit. Exactly. Why would Ashley care, when he is the seller? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Aye I don’t get that. “You leaked it? Fine, I don’t want your £340m”. If he wants to sell (ha), being in the press won’t stop it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Wonder if it will all collapse just as the loan window closes and season ticket renewals have gone through? I don’t believe a word that comes out of the club and I’m ignoring it until something actually happens. I’ll not hold my breath. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 The only place 'Ashley is furious' stories could come from (apart from the journos imagination) is the Ashley camp. Just sowing the seeds for the inevitable collapse and tyre kicker press release. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Why would the story leaking cause it to fall apart anyway? Absolute bullshit. Just guessing here but as MA hates media coverage and scrutiny to a pathological degree, that's two things he gets if the sale is leaked instead of completed quietly and quickly behind closed doors.

TRon Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 He could always just sell and finally fuck off. You know, like he always claims he wants to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfcastle Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Grimly its just hit that we are exactly where we were 12years ago. Club just waiting to get relegated (when not if), fakeovers and not an inch further forward. Its not hard to imagine saying the same thing in 12years. This 'leak' stuff - its just any excuse for Ashley not to sell and for the apologists to put that reality another way and pin the blame on anybody but the common denominator Ashley. At this point only trolling or insanity can excuse it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Why would the WSJ leak this before any other publication?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Why would the WSJ leak this before any other publication?? Because WSJ journalists have actual contacts in high finance where this story began circulating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 WSJ don’t post bull shit PR spin or favors or fake news from Keith Bishop or an Ashley crony. For ANY and ALL who think this, please have a word with yourself. This isn’t the NE Media or friends at the London office for the national papers. Ashley “furious” is 2 and 2 together because he always gets annoyed with things playing out in media. Just because deals leak it won’t mean dick about the actual deal getting done if the buyer and seller act accordingly. It ain’t collapsing all of a sudden either. The 20% UK stake with AS and Reuben brothers is clearly that 1) public face 2) they approached the Saudis and 3) they have done a considerable amount of local work and planning and can offer plug and play. They will be doing all the heavy lifting. I think this one has legs. Let’s hope Ashley doesn’t fuck this up for the millionth time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 We need to hear an offer has been submitted before even thinking twice about this story. If we ever get to an accepted offer state then it might just happen. Even then there’s still loads of hurdles. Btw those asking why all so many parties, you think the prince fella may have issues passing the fit, proper cunts test with his profile on human rights? The brothers are property developers, they’ll have their eyes on the ground and surroundings. So.llyes I’ve just thought twice about it, ffs. Agh!
