Guest firetotheworks Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 It's the club's bullshit, not his tbf. He's reporting it though whilst maintaining the club are firmly with a 'no comment' on anything they have asked About the sale, not about SD signs.

Thomson Mouse Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Why don't people just understand that there are things that the media can say, and things that they cannot. This is so obviously something that they know but cannot say right now and have to follow the public line on "cleaning" There’s nothing obvious they know. Agree with reporting on the clubs ‘cleaning line’, he’s shot himself in the foot with the shit sarcasm though. Exactly what is pissing people off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ameritoon Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I generally don't care to go after reporters who are just reporting what they here, but there seems to be no doubt from them over the club's side of thngs. The club clearly lied yesterday to Douglas about the signs coming down for cleaning, and the club had definitely lied to these journos before. Yet, for some reason, all their skepticism is towards the new group and not the club that has lied to them for years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like that shouldn't be reported as a fact and used to play down speculation if it's just something he's been told by "the club". Who fucking love telling lies.

Exactly what is pissing people off agree - not sure why these journalists/media guys get into personal snarky responses. It's a no-win situation for them Nah, not having this like. Their business is to seek out news & publish it. This isn't part of the official fucking secrets act man, or some high profile trial with restrictions tied all over it. So what if some rich businessman is selling a business to some rich Arabs? Its not even that its likely to be some sort of surreptitious, Illicit dodgy deal we`re talking about here. And lets not forget, they are the local journalists who should have the benefit of local knowledge ffs! As I see it, they're either not up to it enough to scoop the facts or they've not the bottle to go public with what they know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heake Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Caulkin is the only journalist who can come out of this with his head held high. He`s the best around in my opinion, I love his writing & he seems a really decent guy but if he`s holding back, I would really like to know why.

Heake Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Its quite plausible to imagine that the E-signs that (If that should be) are being installed will be paid for by an agency & leased to NUFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Maybe we chose to spend a few thousand pounds of our almost £200m revenue on making the place look slightly less of a tip? For most clubs it is just a petty cost, you can tell we're conditioned to this joy-killing skinflint the way people carry on about costs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasper Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 If they are changing them to electronic boards it would be something that has been planned and budgeted well in advance. Why would they put a stop to it just because someone is potentially buying the club? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
