Munkey Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Have I missed the statement that was getting released? think they released a short statement stating that the statement which was stated to be released yesterday is now stated to be made at some point. i'm not sure if this statement is a response to the statement made from the buyers or a standalone statement in which NUFC state their stated position Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Pathetic that the hopes of a fanbase are relying on a takeover. What a state. We need this like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I’m spitballing here but maybe sales of players and agreement from buyers that these deals and their fees lower the price (and MA keeps the money from these sales) in lieu of agreeing to advertising rights etc could help effectuate a sale. In other words MA thinks his SD advertising is worth 30m of value. Buyer does not agree. He sells Ayoze for 30m. Agrees to adjust price accordingly and keep said incoming fee or portion there-of. Buyer pays less at closing. Absolutely desperate post I know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heake Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Big Mike has got his cock out on a beach in Bermuda laughing till he hoys up into his penis colada while we all sweat on what increasingly looks like a phantom takeover.

It would, however, raise a fairly large question mark around the buyers resources if they were willing to cede this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I don't go on Twitter, have people just been relentlessly harassing him about the statement? I get that people are desperate for good news, but do people really think they're going to get anything extra/some sort of exclusive by hounding him? Or if people are calling it bullshit, at least give it till the end of the week. Like the whole Midhat Whatsapp carry on, I just don't get it.

Optimistic Nut Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Gonna be saying we are great supporters but they couldn't get a deal done, isn't it? Given how the club came out to confirm Rafa was leaving a week before his contract ended, I’m of the opinion any bad news would be broken by the club first.

Given how the club came out to confirm Rafa was leaving a week before his contract ended, I’m of the opinion any bad news would be broken by the club first. Yep, it was Ashley who ended the talks with Staveley, then she followed it up with her interview with Caulkin. https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/newcastle-takeover-off-mike-ashley-amanda-staveley-owner-walks-away-talks-a8162916.html A source close to Ashley has said: “It is only right to let the fans know that there is no deal on the table or even under discussion with Amanda Staveley and PCP. Attempt to reach a deal have proved to be exhausting, frustrating and a complete waste of time.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 The longer they stay silent, yes. I think if they weren’t close to selling, the Rafa statement last Monday would have been the perfect time to say so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club is a shambles, no manager, no coaching staff, 1 striker, players start pre-season tomorrow. 5 weeks till transfer window closes.
