STM Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 So potentially, how soon do we reckon? I know it Twitter bollocks etc but someone on another nufc forum (what?) Claimed that he'd seen texts from Midhat saying that it would be done (PL checks) this weekend, with confirmation next week. The person was reliable... apparently.

Guest godzilla Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 So potentially, how soon do we reckon? It was 2 days between Ashley setting up the company and Hall selling his shares I believe. Has to be soon I would think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-more Mag Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 This doesn't really tell us anything about the timing. It's still unclear where the parties are in terms of the definitive deal documents -- stock purchase agreement, etc. Still a good sign, though.

STM Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 So potentially, how soon do we reckon? If we take Caulkins cryptic tweet earlier & the timeline for registering & completing the last purchase, my guess is Tomorow / Friday Missed this, what tweet?

Matt Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 This doesn't really tell us anything about the timing. It's still unclear where the parties are in terms of the definitive deal documents -- stock purchase agreement, etc. Still a good sign, though. People generally don't incorporate in these circumstances until they need to. I've worked in plenty of processes where the binding bid document simply refers in general terms to 'a UK limited company, to be incorporated in due course' because it saves the hassle of setting one up and then closing it all back down again if the other conditions of the sale are not fulfilled.

Guest godzilla Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Ashley has been doing some 'tidying up' of his own the last 24 hours and surely with this new company being set it would indicate he is preparing the club for imminent sale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the time lapsed from the (Alleged) agreed / signed bid between the two parties (Middle of April), if one were to register a title to stay dormant till any acquisition was complete, then why didn't they just do that months ago? The timing of this (in relation to last weeks Statement) is surely significant & indicates a deal is imminent? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
