Decky Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 8 years is ambitious imo. The club will be sold when he's nearly dead. And even then it might just go to his children. Absolutely no reason for him to sell at all. Infact it would be outright stupid given that he owns a sports retail company. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Have all the takeover rumours just stopped dead then? Yeah, strangely the other interested parties (didn’t happen) just vanished. It’s almost like it was bullshit all along. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s almost like it was bullshit all along. It was always going to play out like this. It's straight out of the Ashley book. It's still hard to believe how many fell for it again though.

It’s almost like it was bullshit all along. It was always going to play out like this. It's straight out of the Ashley book. It's still hard to believe how many fell for it again though. Fell for what exactly? The buyers are, like Staveley, genuinely trying to buy the club. Ashley as always, has been the sticking point, and I don't think many people out there thought it was going to be otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people said they were genuine but ashley, which is exactly how it's played out. But the special group on here are taking it as an 'i told you so' win. Pretty sure a couple of them had it down as a KB masterstroke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 The club costs him nothing and he advertises sports direct for free. He's not selling ever He makes too much money from having the club for him to sell. Its always been and always will be smoke and mirrors - plays the game but nothing more.

He’s played us with a number of his actions. We were told by a few sources that this time he genuinely wanted to sell up. I guess if you hear it enough times you start to believe it, but the initial hunch we all had was the correct one. He doesn't want to sell, and never has. Not in any serious interpretation of this long running drama. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Think no club will ever believe BZG again after how they have let this one play out. Also after what happened to their supposed interest in Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Think no club will ever believe BZG again after how they have let this one play out. Also after what happened to their supposed interest in Liverpool. And rightly so. Regardless of Ashley's complete shithouse behaviour, they've not exactly covered themselves in glory either. Of the three latest, confirmed, bids (BZG, Staveley, Kenyon) Staveley is the only one I'd have wanted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 It’s still ‘on’ in that they want to buy and Ashley wants to sell, but those terms... From Ashley’s side! It won’t happen obviously Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankles Bennett Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 It's clearly a case of bzg expressing an interest and the fat twat encouraging them whilst never intending to sell but using the interest as a cover for letting raga go and not buying any players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
