Interpolic Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 A takeover story is digital gold for the football media sites. Of course they’re going to get carried away with it. Wouldn’t actually surprise me if one of those goons started the rumour to begin with. I don't know how you dare tbh. Aye utter gobshite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 If you turn the n in holdings upside down, clone the t in Ltd and turn it upside down and discard a bunch of letters it spells 'Fat Cunt Ltd'. Clearly a coded signal it's on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 The Public Investment Fund (PIF) is the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia. It is among the largest sovereign wealth funds in the world with total estimated assets of $320 billion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Investment_Fund_of_Saudi_Arabia Why would they need partners to complete a £350m purchase of NUFC? No doubt they'll drop out when Mike Ashley raises the asking price by £10m even though they probably make that much money in 10 minutes from oil.

Some are saying they need people in the UK to set up companies and stuff but I refuse to believe they couldn’t get one of their own people to do it for them here without involving the likes of Staveley and the Reuben brothers.

Guardian one sort of answers that. She approached them and wants a stake, they want her to be the public face which sort of makes sense if they're trying to improve the image of the country.

TRon Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 The Times is saying Big Mike is furious that the story was leaked by the WSJ and that could lead to the whole deal collapsing. My reading of that is he is the one who probably leaked the story. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My reading of that is he is the one who probably leaked the story. This wouldn't surprise me at all. He doesn't want to relinquish ownership in my opinion. Plus the last takeover was 'definitely happening' as well. I won't be getting excited. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
