Guest The Little Waster Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 From Newsweek : Prince Andrew It was in 2001 that Staveley first met Prince Andrew when she gave him a tour of the Science Park. The following day, Prince Andrew invited Staveley out for dinner and secretly proposed to her in 2003, according to British newspaper The Daily Telegraph. But the engagement is said to have been broken off due to the amount of media attention that would come with being the second duchess of York Feckin Nora , theres a nonce angle to all this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Tyre kickers, lets just stick with Bruce's flat back 7 and let Ashley steal all our assets and drain the very life out of the club for another 13 year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweMag Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I trust George Caulkin and he says price etc is agreed just some minor details left and it’s up to Ashley now. Amanda Staveley front figure but the Reuben brothers also heavily involved. No side happy about the leak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Apart from the obvious reasons such as profit and free advertising of SD by owning the club, it's now like an obsession for Ashley to not sell us and keep making this drama on an annual basis. It's mind boggling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man U fans are firing flares at Ed Woodwards house, and our lot will be wondering what their problem is. It’s all relative though. Give them our situation what would they do. Part of me thinks fair played to them but there’s no way their situation is anywhere near as bad as at Newcastle so it seems like an overreaction last night.

Was there any type of questioning when they were trying for Manu? Not sure tbh but I can't remember seeing Amnesty International kicking off and forbes retweeting etc Top and bottom of it is, if they took over man u, the sports media would absolutely love it so they could froth over the impending Manchester rivalry. There would be some absolutely wounded media pricks if it did come off for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 The last bit might confuse a few like. “My understanding is that everything that has come out over the weekend is right and that this has progressed to a stage where the finishing line is in sight. “But, the key point AGAIN is to say that it hasn’t got to the stage where it’s been signed and agreed, even though a lot of things have been agreed during these conversations that have been happening. “This is something that’s been on the cards for months. My understanding is that this goes back a lot further (than four months). “Staveley’s interest in the club has never gone away (since her 3 bids two years ago) and this latest incarnation has been around certainly since before Benitez left last summer – but it’s really ramped up in the last few months and weeks. “Obviously the game changer this time is the involvement in Saudi Arbai’s sovereign wealth funds – and none of this stuff has been denied, whether it’s from the club’s side, or from Ashley’s side or Saudi Arabia. “So there is a widespread assumption that this is genuine. “My understanding is that it’s got to the stage it’s pretty much make your mind up time (for Ashley). “Things like price has been agreed and most of the big details have been agreed – there’s still a few stumbling blocks – but in the context of a deal like this, I think if it was any other kind of deal in the financial world, you’d be pretty much saying it’s done. “However, this isn’t done…yet… “Again, everything I’m told is if it doesn’t happen this time, it’s because of one man. “It’s not some amazingly devious trick from the mind of Keith Bishop. They are genuine people who’ve been trying to buy the club for a long time.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are genuine people who’ve been trying to buy the club for a long time.” lol true. I think people use the fakeover term broadly. Some people think it is all bullshit and the buyers either don't really exist or are just playing along (hopefully this is a minority of people) others think that its real but Ashley will just not accept anyway. I believe it is real, he will sell but wants to sell and keep his cake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 So its up to Ashley to decide whatever he gets from Newcastle Utd is worth more than £350 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is real, he will sell but wants to sell and keep his cake. This is the major stumbling block, it has to be, it's got to a point where he'll either insist on retaining some kind of advertising/merchandising rights or insist on a further balloon payment to remove the 9999999 year contract he gave to SD.

toon25 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 At the end of the day, this is prospective takeover is much bigger than the club. It has the potential to change the city/region. If that fat cunt gets in the way of that, then he genuinely needs lynching. This could change people’s lives. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
