The Prophet Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 If nothing else this 100% confirms that Qatar are feeding the general press their information. First thing this morning a couple were parroting their summary of events. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 You literally took my comment and said “it sounds like” inferring your opinion. In no way did I ever write what you did. Nor was inferring it. "But piracy in a world where its rampant and the main opposition to it in this takeover's case is KSA's biggest rival smells like pure trash to me" "I hope PIF focus all their efforts at building a team to beat PSG in Europe" You literally wrote those sentences, I wasn't inferring anything Which still has nothing to do with "supporting Saudi Arabia in their battle against Qatar" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 If that is the deleted BBC tweet then the wording is more worrying as very specific for it to be a simple mistake.

Dokko Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I really don't think this report is as important as being made out like It's not. Also if Qatar do make an announcement (expected apparently) on the takeover i'm guessing it will be weirdly in our favour (also see KSA & PIF as separate entities as well.) as they simply want the piracy issues stopped, not the takeover blocked. They are simply using it as leverage and to get the attention of the PL. I think in the end we will all win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 If the takeover doesn't go through, the blame doesn't lie with the WTO, BEin, Qatar, British tabloids, the Premier League, Richard Masters or lefty journalists on Twitter, it lies with our prospective owners- who've pretty obviously done basically everything they've been accused of and put themselves in a position where they can't buy Premier League clubs. I want it to happen, but it'll do so on the basis of the Premier League wilfully turning a blind eye for cash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

deejeck Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I really don't think this report is as important as being made out like It's probably not, and the release won't come with the geet humongous epiphany that some are anticipating either. Strongly suspect that come half three nobody will be any the fucking wiser as to how this will play out. There'll be a shitload of noise from the press, but we've already had two months of that. It'll be nothing but speculation, as it has all been so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 If Starforth is right and the Qatari’s are going to issue a summary and view on takeover, surely the fuc#%rs are overstepping the mark. This is supposedly meant to be a private and confidential test, surely it would sound alarm bells with premier league. No partner of the league should be able to exert this much influence, it would be an extreme case of the tail wagging the dog. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Puppets Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Literally every NUFC fan should be able to see that Saudi Arabia are well out of order in all of this. It's clear as day. Human rights. Piracy. The lot. Why anyone would feel the need to defend them or blame others for scuppering the deal is beyond me. If the deal fails, it's absolutely unequivocally the fault of Saudi Arabia... no one else. Any NUFC fan defending them or blaming it on anyone else just proves that sportswashing works. Or just proves that blind loyalty trumps common sense. For the record, I still hope it goes through from a sporting perspective, but I'd struggle to criticise the PL or anyone else if it didn't.
