xLiaaamx Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Alarming they don't have the money to buy it. Think it'll be a good to be rid of Ashley but not the answer long term and have to hope they don't hang on to it as badly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it'll be a good to be rid of Ashley but not the answer long term and have to hope they don't hang on to it as badly. I don’t think that there is any indication yet. I still think this is just the proof of funds stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafalove Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 So Is it fair to say this isn’t going to be a “Man City”, type take over? Ie unlimited funds world class signings billions pumped in to the club and surrounding area? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Money being ‘loaned’ in this way is quite common, its just an extra way of making sure certain things are covered financially for the deal to go through as it involves others and other money, he’ll get it back almost instantly on 100% completion.

Guest godzilla Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 That Simon Chadwick is definitely briefing on Twitter that the Saudi involvement will be limited. So he's changed his mind from no involvement then :D Nobody knows anything about what involvement they will have, but I'm sure it will at some point.

Kanji Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 The Reubens and PIF have the kind of money to transform the club and the city. Could potentially create a plethora of jobs and really change the landscape of the region. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I hate the idea that Bruce will look like some sort of martyr by the happy clappers if the new owners get rid of him from day one. People will have forgotten about him within a few months if the takeover happens and he gets rightly punted. He'll crawl back to another mid table Championship job where he belongs and that will be that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Does this 'loan' = the other £150m (in addition to the initial £200m)? And the instalments, making up that 150, are paid with interest? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a weird cult on Twitter who seem to think he’s doing a better job than Benitez, playing better football and that they wouldn’t have him back. It’s fucking crazy.
