Dr Jinx Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 It’s a load of bollocks to suggest that the deal is being done on the quiet. The deal was done, the negotiating part was finished long ago. If you’re referring to the o&d’s test, why would the PL let it go through quietly when we already know they’ve picked sides with Qatar (Bein) As if they would double cross them now. It’s done, as in not happening/finished. And the cherry on top will be when Staveley loses her case against Barclays, she won’t have any chips left on the table once that happens. This was the chance. We got fucked on it probably by both sides. Fans lose again and now we’re stuck with a Mike Ashley who’s lost his shirt this year. For our sanity we need to let this go.

manorpark Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I fully understand why a number of people on here are saying (things like) "It's dead, finished, we have been 'fucked', move on for your own sanity" etc, etc, etc. AND that some of those saying that actually do believe that, though some of those saying it are obviously only 'saying it' for their own sanity. I understand all that. However, it is obviously not dead. Until such time as Staveley and / or Ashley say that it is categorically dead . . . it is very much ALIVE.

Guest Cheesy Beans Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 What a clickbait quote that is Staveley hasn’t even said it. The full article here, isn’t even about Staveley or PCP: https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/18687308.mike-ashley-calls-off-talks-henry-mauriss-bellagraph-nova-group/ That ‘quote’ is an assumption because there has been no verified progress.

Guest reefatoon Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 We need Ashley to come out and call her a tyre kicker again, so we can all go back to the bitter resentment that has darkened our moods for the last 13 years. I’m already back in that funk now. Seems to be the best way to be for a Newcastle fan. Hate it all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's already happened to some extent, one of the reasons why PIF withdrew their bid. I read somewhere on this thread that the govt might step in and get it passed, I have no idea if there is any truth in that, but it's the only way I can see it happening, because the PL definitely don't want the takeover to happen because they are already in bed with Qatar.

Bimpy474 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I have but one wish in life now, to be rid of the parasite feeding on our corpse. To fell the vulture that has circled us for over a decade, picking our bones clean. All we have is a fading hope someone will pay what the fat greedy tosser wants, fading away that now.
