The club should be saying something either way now like.

 

They literally have no reason to.

 

As long as they’re not going to advertise tickets for the Asia Cup, STs, merchandise or anything else they’ve got links to then, no, fine.

 

It’s basic comms. It’s amateur.

 

Imagine the reaction if they put out something like we’re in talks and it doesn’t happen?

 

It’d be the club who get the blame. They’ll be happy to let it play out as it is with them making all the noises.

 

They might be happy. But it’s shit.

 

Communications for the 12 years of Ashley’s ownership have been shambolic.

 

As someone posted on Twitter earlier, they’ve apparently sold 50 tickets for the Asia Cup - there’s no advice on the website offering information or advice about visas, travel etc. Yet Wolves have included all that. It’s pathetic.

The only reason I feel this saga has any legitimacy is the club’s lack of communication.

 

No quarters for any of the payphones and all the media outlets deny the charges on collect calls.

 

Also unable to repair the fax machine.

Wonder why they didn't mention all the shit today when they made the original statement 2 days ago.

 

They weren't aware what Shitehawks the Journo's who dictate the atmosphere around NUFC are?

You really have to question the motive behind all these press releases. For me they mean that they arent very close at all. If they were what would be the point?

 

Because of the absolute s*** from journalists and wannabe twitter ITKs over the last 72 hours they feel they have to come out as their reputation has been questioned. Look they have stated Ashley has agreed and signed off the takeover and it's in the hands of the league. If it's s*** Ashley will be coming out with his own statement very soon

Think they have been forced to put out this extra statement today because of the flak the local journos have given them since their last statement. Deal would have been completed or something major would have happened on Friday had the journos not put doubts out too much about them.

NUFC won't comment no matter what, so I don't see that as a problem. Nobody actually in the club will know anything.

 

You're right but I would imagine Ashley will if it's shit as he did with Slaveley. They are using his name and stating legal documents have been signed.

Looking forward to this dragging on for literally the whole summer and Joselu starting our first game under Mark Hughes

 

Can't believe they overlooked Sherwood. Sickening.

I know they claim that MA has signed paperwork, and hopefully that is true... but other than that, this seems to be going all 'Staveley' again.

 

One side appears to be doing all the running and noise making, until Fatboy gets 'frustrated' and pulls the plug with 'Timewasters'. Remember, Staveley showed Caulkin the bids she'd submitted, but MA/the club claimed no bids were made.

 

Lets hope this latest statement prompts some sort of official response from MA's side, so we can either get on the bandwagon, or hoy wa'sells in the Tyne.
