loki679 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 The Wall Street Journal were quite clear about the situation when they wrote the piece. And the journalist interviewed on the radio backed it up by saying they wouldn’t have written the piece unless it was likely to happen. Any and all confusion that’s gone on since are when the national media and local rags got involved. I'll take Odin's word on this. He's a very trustworthy chap when it comes to takeover things.

Dunce Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I think any takeover talk should be completely ignored for now. For me , the tipping point will be when we hit 40points , if there is anything in this , i believe this is when it will happen. When it doesnt , it rubber stamps the belief of many that he will never ever sell the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon No9 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 In a way it would be good if the saudis bought West Ham. Then we know what Ashley turned down. Hard for him to explain why he didn't do the deal and continue to say he's a willing seller. Hopefully this move to bid for West Ham is just a way to put pressure on Ashley to speed up the sale of Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this move to bid for West Ham is just a way to put pressure on Ashley to speed up the sale of Newcastle. They aren’t interested in West Ham or opened talks. It was a rumour made up by some bullshitter on Twitter last night, picked up by bullshitters Footballinsider365, then re-reported in the local rags. Douglas who even wrote the Chronicle’s re-reporting of it even said it’s not true. For what it’s worth, the original rumour even said Red Bull were close to buying West Ham.

Kanji Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Odin’s post and comments about what the WSJ author said are all true. If you listen to the podcast he was on he says he wouldn’t have written that article if he wasn’t lead to believe it was going to happen. Maybe some of you who doubt the Wall Street journal are often too used to the British papers but it’s one of the most respected publications and news outlets. Conspiracy nerds who call it an Ashley fakeover that PR mastermind and puppet master Bishop has orchestrated are misinformed and have questionable intelligence. If you for one second believe some hack like Keith can plant stories in the WSJ and fabricate all of this then carry on reading the sun or something. Now If this was breaking Sunday Sun or Mirror, different story. We know exactly what our owner and Kieth can do with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I’d be amazed if anyone still thinks it’s ‘fake’ the problem is Ashley either is reluctant to sell or he’ll only sell on his terms and he’s just not willing to compromise to get a deal done Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, no way can Ashley's cronies manipulate Wall Street Journal, Financial Times etc. That's the unique hope for this time round, until Ashley pulls the plug again.

I wouldn’t have minded too much if there had been an explanation or apology afterwards. I understand it when people are a bit bored or lonely and want to do something to feel relevant or part of something but to not admit that afterward I find a bit difficult.

Odear Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Or it’s entirely possible that the deal still needs time. It got leaked well before it should have been. All sides unhappy about it. The likes of Caulkin who should know the inside track has been unusually quiet or the odd comment he’s made have been vague generalisations. He knows more for sure.
