LV Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 The Press Association statement is nothing new though is it? I don’t think it changes anything Mark Douglas and some of the nationals have been saying this stuff about no exclusivity and no premier league fit and proper test throughout haven't they? What makes the Press Association thing suddenly more credible? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Doesn't a statement from the Press Association effectively means its literally 'cross press' and therefore more credible/have less or no opinion? If this is the case, which I'm fairly sure it is, it means that Ashley's side are opting to put out a message directly and across the board rather than leak it to the news outlet of their choice. It would be a way of getting bi-lateral messages out quickly rather than the drip effect of tipping off SSN or one tabloid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 What do you mean by a bi-lateral message? I mean the Press Association release it across the board at the same time for the wider press (tv, radio, newspapers etc) to use/report on as they see fit. As opposed to say getting in a room with his mates as SSN or the Sun to 'release' a message from a 'source'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Ok cheers So you think it’s credible? I just don’t see it as any different to what some of the nationals have reported already and a lot of people didn’t believe those reports. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be completely wrong here but I thought the Press Association was always completely legit and a means of getting a message out to a wide audience quickly rather than the trickle effect of one paper to the other kind of thing. If I'm not mistaken, the P.A operates at a bit of a higher level than the everyday press/media outlets. It's an official agency rather than a pure media outlet. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=press+association Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 It's a wire service similar to the Associated Press over here. Exists to cover stories which other outlets can pick up without having to spend money covering things they won't benefit from. It's pretty much the only media source in the UK I've definitely believed in the past, about as reliable as you can get Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it might be used to release major news at one go too. For example, major national/international events or incidents etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Always felt if noises came out of Ashley's camp to speed things up then the sale would fall through. I'd hoped he'd keep quiet until it was done. His recent whinging would suggest it isn't going to happen. Whether its another time waster or he's moved the goalposts I don't know, but i'd expect if it were the latter another comms from the buyer would have been out by now stating as much.
