The powerhouse the fans deserve? Cheeky fucker, spend some money, you own it now you cunt. 

Would rather he just carried on the road he's on tbh. Don't bother spending anything, just sell the club and fuck off.

In a way... you have to admire the sheer brass neck on this cunt.

Aye, now.

Mike Ashley: “After four years of the club being subjected to this investigation, I am pleased it has now been discontinued. It is now time for the dark forces that are preventing this football club from becoming the power house that the fans deserve, to step aside.”

The above sounds like a fabricated quote, but it's real.

Fuck off you fat cunt.

Fucking ladgeful, that.

That little dig at the 'dark forces' bodes well for the takeover. Hell hath no fury like a greedy git scorned.

Starting to think that the ESL was an open secret and the timing is all starting to make sense.

Showing my ignorance here...but is this the arbitration, or something completely different.

Different.

Not quite, it says “lost the immediate sale, or the likely opportunity of…”

It is strange that this is happening if arbitration is still a possibility mind.

Not sure that is quite what it is saying, especially if they are asking the PL to change/reconsider their decision.

I don't know how you get that. It shows if anything that it is still on. This is just Ashley trying to force their hand sooner rather than later.

You don't know how he got that?

Not read any of his posts, like?

[AyeDubbleYoo]

It just says that the sale didn't go through as it should have, at the time it would have. 

[Dokko]

So this is change the decision and put it through of you will need to cough up daft money. If so I would love to know the figures. Hopefully tens of millions, possibly even a metro station or two.

Actually both things could happen - reconsideration and damages to Ashley.

I’m not sure exactly what powers this tribunal has.
