OpenC Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I will be entirely honest; while I'm still 100% prepared for yet another disappointment, I can't wait for that knacker to disappear from the club first and foremost - but I would be lying if I said I wasn't intrigued by the prospect of being able to compete at a serious level again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I'm other way around to be fair, Ryder saying it's on means another 10 years of Ashley Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinky Jim Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Couldn’t resist putting this in here, even though it’s in the Other thread....from .com, and they’ve barely mentioned it at all in the past 5 weeks, so perhaps they’ve had some info that we’re not privy to...anyway see below:- Takeover: Last lap We understand that the much-heralded purchase of Newcastle United by a consortium comprising the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, Amanda Staveley and the Reuben brothers will be ratified and announced before next weekend. That will follow the granting of formal approval of the deal by the Premier League - a process that has taken around five weeks, due in part to controversy over the Saudi involvement and efforts to restart the season.

Jinky Jim Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Apparently this is a tweet from PIF Saudi which went up then was deleted almost immediately.Its about recent global acquisitions and has a picture of the statue of Sir Bobby.Someone on twitter thinks it is a premade tweet ready to go up about acquisitions and was supposed to be scheduled to go up but went live by mistake,hence it was taken down quickly....could mean an announcement soon....Really scraping the barrel here. https://i.gyazo.com/46c4ed36e3b7d13bd0aed268228b6581.png Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Puppets Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Did the guardian article itself say the deal is still expected to go through this week? Yes... "The Premier League refused to comment when contacted by the Guardian. Sources close to the deal continue to maintain they remain “very hopeful” of a confirmation this week and claim Project Restart is the only possible delaying factor."

Jinky Jim Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Grabbed this from reddit...absolutely love the idea of “Grandad” being the first to find out that Charnley has left Here’s to Grandad “Okay, so I know how this is going to sound, but here goes. My Grandad works as a steward at St. James', been working there longer than I've been alive. That should sort out credibility. He drove to mine to drop off birthday cards for my sister and said Charnley's office has been emptied. I asked if I could quote him on that, he shrugged and said, "furlough," so... #cans?! edit: Grandad is furloughed, doesn't give a shit.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
