Just so we're clear here, people actually think MBS, the de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia and one of the most powerful men in the world won't get through the English Football Association fit and proper persons test?

 

Who knows, another club then probably not. Us? aye, without a doubt.  :lol:

MBS ( the heed chopping bastard ) cannot pass the Fit and Proper person test therefore its cobblers . The End .

 

Hitler, Stalin & Pol Pot joint bid would pass that test if enough money changed hands. Who has ever failed it?

 

Some bloke who tried to take over Leeds, I think.

 

Edit: Massimo Cellino

We need to hear an offer has been submitted before even thinking twice about this story. If we ever get to an accepted offer state then it might just happen. Even then there’s still loads of hurdles.

 

No. We don’t need to hear about any submitted offers. In the due diligence they agree of the ”Heads of Terms” - includes details on the identified buyers and sellers, the purchase price etc. They don’t need to submit any offer at this stage, but they know the purchase price. In the next stage - The Sales Purchase Agreement - is where you buy the club. The “actual agreement that transfers the shares of the seller to the buyer”. Can take months.

I refuse to believe, but this guardian article goes into a hell of a lot of detail compared to the high level stuff that was going around following the Peter Kenyon fiasco:

They'd leave Bruce in charge?  :serious:

 

Guessing it’d just be like City with Hughes. He replaced Sven then a few weeks later they were taken over. The first sign of a bad run he’d be sacked.

He'll be announcedas both the Fittest and Properest Person of the Year and the Young Fittest and Properest Person of the Year.

Surely Muslim owners won't leave a human ham in charge of the first team.

WSJ don’t post bull shit PR spin or favors or fake news from Keith Bishop or an Ashley crony. For ANY and ALL who think this, please have a word with yourself. This isn’t the NE Media or friends at the London office for the national papers.

 

Ashley “furious” is 2 and 2 together because he always gets annoyed with things playing out in media. Just because deals leak it won’t mean dick about the actual deal getting done if the buyer and seller act accordingly. It ain’t collapsing all of a sudden either.

 

The 20% UK stake with AS and Reuben brothers is clearly that 1) public face 2) they approached the Saudis and 3) they have done a considerable amount of local work and planning and can offer plug and play. They will be doing all the heavy lifting.

 

I think this one has legs. Let’s hope Ashley doesn’t fuck this up for the millionth time.

I think Ashley goes down these roads every time with intention of pulling the rug from under the buyers. He doesn't fuck it up. It's his plan from the start.

We all know Ashley is a deceptive fat c*nt but why would he leak another take over story now?

 

He’s arguably under the least amount of pressure to sell the club than he ever has been. The ground is full again with no dissenting voices against him to be heard.

 

The club is sat in mid table and unlikely to be relegated and now has a manager who won’t criticise him.

 

If these talks are true, then there is absolutely no way that the excuse of ‘no proof of funds’ can be used again. If the Saudi’s are serious about this then it’s only good ol’ Mike who can f*ck this up. Obviously, this is the most likely outcome.
