Kanji Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Sean, you’re an Odd human being having a go at someone who’s spent 3 years of her life trying to buy your football club and believing in its potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 If he’s going to improve us off the pitch, improve facilities and grow us commercially, good luck to him I’d be happy. I doubt he’d be able to do any of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he’d be able to do any of that. This guy isn’t buying us He has no money or credibility. Yet another media placement from Qatari’s to make this easier to stall. Idiots like Edwards spinning a tail of the Saudis not being the only option makes things a lot smoother. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE27 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Wait, didn't Edwards reply to someone's sarcastic tweet yesterday when they said would he report on him and his company if he says he's going to buy the club, much like Henry has. And Edwards said yes, if you deposit 350m into escrow to prove your funds, insinuating that is what Mauriss has done? And now he hasn't even produced proof of funds or started fuck all despite being interested since last year. Imagine people being pissed at AS for actually trying to buy our club(and sadly failing twice) and saying jot all about some fake counter offer from this joker.

This The PIF stuff is done, if it was a negotiating tactic it would have been done in silence like the majority of this.

NG32 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Mauriss sounds like a chancer much like Ashley himself. He has resources but has very little personal capital in the bank to make the purchase out right. My worry would be he loans the 300 mil and then burdens NUFC with paying it back. It's a funny old world where Ashley has fannied about with NUFC for years pretending to sell or messing buyers around...now he is scurrying about looking to flog like a desperate tit.

bealios Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Written dialogue with the PL is not going to achieve anything except a polite response saying nothing. As we’ve seen with Ashley, the only way this is going to have any impact is of that fan pressure impacts on revenue. If the 50,000 fans who signed the petition had it in them to cancel sky subscriptions, and a mass boycott of any of the PL’s commercial partners. We may not have a huge amount of options available as fans, but we’re still one of the most watched teams, that’s why we’re on so often. A public cancellation of subscriptions, spamming social media etc. would be fantastic if sky lost 50,000 subscriptions over this - even just the sports part of you cannot bear giving up the whole thing.

Shearergol Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 No rebuttal from Spurs and Liverpool re Staveley's comments.

Because to counter it is to give fresh fuel to the flames and legitimises it to some extend.

Ketsbaia Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I did think that PL were going to approve but were using their leverage to get as much as possible from the deal - piracy fixed, a big bid for the next MENA rights etc. They pushed it too far, PIF walked away and now PL will realise the limit has been reached, will leave it at that and approve. But no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ClintonBaptiste Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 If AS had the case some people on here think she has she'd already be in court with the PL . Fans can protest all they want , the PL couldnt care less - we don't matter to them and they'll be more than happy when we get relegated next season .
