Miggys First Goal Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Got a bad feeling about this one. Convinced it’s going to happen and they’ll turn out to be complete shysters and we definitely do a Leeds this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Puppets Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 So are we all agreed PCP/PIF/RB are gone for good? 100% definitely not. It's gone quiet, but there's no way Staveley, Reuben's and PIF have completely walked away. Not a chance. My personal belief is this PR exercise regarding the new takeover rumours is an attempt to push PIF to get back to the table and offer the PL what they want.

My personal belief is this PR exercise regarding the new takeover rumours is an attempt to push PIF to get back to the table and offer the PL what they want. I can understand the logic but personally, I think it's just wishful thinking and that it's quiet because there's nothing more to be said. In saying that, there is the NUST meeting with the PL which should be interesting to hear about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I find it hard to believe that PIF would walk away from the deal in its current state. The PL never rejected them for a start. They were planning on spending £350m to buy us, a couple of hundred more improving the infrastructure of the club and transfers, plus further investment of millions into the city. The Reubens have probably earmarked some development in the city as well. There's so much at stake in that deal that comes with potentially years of planning. I can't see them walking away from it like this. There's more to come from this deal before its dead and depending on how they deal with the PL it could still yet be completed. Just my opinion of course which is based of pure guess work and wishful thinking because who really knows what is going on? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really if arbitration find that they’re a separate entity, it would be difficult for them to find grounds to reject using current o & d. The PL are looking to absolve themselves of any responsibility, if it goes to arbitration they can say to bein we had no choice but to approve.

Absolute Elsewhere Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Ashley has even said himself the day the club finally gets sold there won’t be none of this circus and bullshit it will just be done.

Zero chance PIF or this new lot end up buying us. While it is unlikely that either of these two deals go through I do find it hilarious that everyone takes this one line from Ashley as gospel despite him being proven to be a liar and to mislead fans on purpose.
