KaKa Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 This looks like they are applying pressure on the PL and effectively calling their bluff. See what happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Meh, just take 17 weeks to inform the whoppers and even then, just shrug and scratch your bollocks. Seems to be how to get your way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 So what happens if they don't formally withdraw? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1964 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I don't get that, they have very pubically withdrawn. This isn't going anywhere I don't think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 So what happens if they don't formally withdraw? Nothing I'd imagine? Just waiting for the PL to announce officially they're re-starting the process from scratch on Monday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 The league blocked a willing investor in club and region - but their process is meant to protect the member club. Yeah ok. The league only cares about its friends. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 I don't get that, they have very pubically withdrawn. This isn't going anywhere I don't think Like I said already, it's one last roll oftl the dice to put pressure on. It's all at the PL door now, no more lies and misinformation from the PL. It may work, it may not, but expect things to move quickly to a resolution now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 One interesting thing for me is hat they supposedly met to discuss putting harder pressure on the PL but instead decided to pull out. Almost like it’s preemptive to the claims that they are just calling the PLs bluff. Think by the skin of my teeth I remain a Manorparkian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Be sorted by this time next week. Friday 3pm. Maybe even today Seriously though didn't gm hear thry were going to say yes, PL could easily turn around and state we were only days away from a decision and save a lot of drama.

I'll give it 2 weeks, any action from external sources and PL will come quickly or not at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BergenMagpie Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Only thing that can save the deal is the government stepping in. If they would do a 180 now when theyre basically off the hook Qatar would be way more pissed off than if they had just approved it at day one.

Stifler Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Let’s say Ashley said he no longer can support us, or no longer wants too and puts us into admin. Would the Premier League still deduct us 9 points even though he tried to sell to a willing buyer who had enough funds who they wouldn’t approve? The answer is yes and an indication of how fucked up the system is. I honestly hope the takeover goes through and we once and for all pull all the football rules which prevent open competition. Fucking disgrace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Shows the big clubs in this league even offering a hint of creating a european super league is enough to stop the PL given anyone else a chance to complete. The likes of Liverpool and Man United are far too powerful. All those fans taking the piss out of us, unless you're a fan of the "big 6" you're fucked too.

Tsunami Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 There’s no way the PL will now wave this through. Why would they, if they do say anything it’ll be either that the buyers have pulled out or that the test hasn’t been completed. The consortium may be hoping for a change of heart before they formally tell the PL of their decision but it’ll come. The PL has shown where their loyalty lies. It should bring into sharp focus that the top echelon of the PL is a closed shop if there’s any sign of a threat. Pity they can’t trot off and start a non relegation European Super League so we can try and enjoy, may be even compete, in the league again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
