Takeover Thread - July 1st statement, Staveley letter to Tracey Crouch (and response) in OP

[Guest neesy111]

The club's communication to supporters just stinks in general.

 

- It took them ages to say what they were doing with regards to refunds

- While I wouldn't expect them to comment during a NDA, there's been nowt but that feeble statement from Charnley saying Ashley's still committed to a sale

- It took a Slovakian keeper coach to shed light on what's happened to Dubravka and they've still not confirmed Joelinton's in quarantine

- A pre-season friendly against Burra in which we were gubbed was weirdly referred to as a "training match" with no in-game updates

 

Then you can add in shite like the social media team RTing Fernandez's tweet about having a word with Messi when the policy is clearly recruit for next to nowt.

 

Proper defensive stuff. Is Lee Marshall still involved? The fella who used to bite constantly on Twitter?

 

My mate still hasn't had his refunds yet.

Aye, my mate was saying at the weekend that he still hasn't had a refund as well. Nothing out of the ordinary for NUFC tbh, just standard shambles.

George caulkin On the podcast gave a pretty long winded answer but essentially said he is getting on his life and assuming we are stuck with the current situation. Is this takeover dead, no it’s not but he can’t see a pathway to getting it done

Still absolutely staggered reading that that at no point have we been given an update/reason/statement whatever you want to call it on why. Nothing from any party following it all falling to bits. Even more baffling everyone has just dropped it and moved it without answer.

PIF probably don't think it's worthy of answer.  It was a small cog in their 'Vision 2030' and won't be seen as needing much attention.

 

It's dead.

[James]

If they come back it will be some shadow company with its own structure. We won’t initially realise it’s them

As correctly said by someone else, the lack of communication from the club about it is disgraceful (but not in anyway surprising).

Can NUST not swoop into action?

Which means, its effectively dead.

Weirdly said they wouldn’t be pursuing Staveley for answers despite being introduced. They’ve now dropped any mention of the takeover since.

Presumably because it’s over and there’s nothing left to discuss?  PIF formally withdrawn and the others confirmed as time wasters 

 

Edit: made a right arse of them quotes!

[manorpark]

As I have said quite a few times, we will hear when this is finally resolved, as either a "full stop" or as a "Takeover", and we will hear absolutely NOTHING - from anyone that matters, Staveley, Reubens, PIF, Ashley, - up until that final point.

 

Everything else we see reported or commented on is just BS.

 

All we need to do is 'forget it' (kind of) and just W A I T.

Why do you keep ignoring we have heard from PIF already? They're out. They were funding 80% of it. Of all the parties involved that's a pretty fucking big one to get that statement from. And if everything else reported or commented on is BS, that means we ignore all the shite being spouted about how it's now being handled 'behind closed doors'.. right?

[Menace]

Because he's deluded.

 

 

"Feeling very confident about this week"

 

"This has completed, just waiting announcement"

 

"Talks going on in the background"

 

Righto pal.

Beyond parody at this point.

Weren't they also funding Staveley's 10%, as her payment?

Because even AS and the Reuben Brother's ignored it?

 

Manopark is getting some totally uneccassary grief here. Just an optimistic bloke who is excitable and wants the best for the club, so what if he's slightly annoying with it?

 

Some serious projecting going on in here you bunch of incels.

I think as long as people aren't pretending to be ITK and spouting rubbish, then I don't seem any harm with a bit of optimism (however misguided others feel it is). Ultimately people can stay away from this thread and await news via other channels if they feel there is currently nothing further to be discussed.

This Friday is key!

[Shearergol]

WAIT isn’t the best advice for our fans though, given it’s what we’re told every year.

It's certainly unnecessary advice.

[TRon]

I don’t think I will ever stop being angry about this whole thing. We have had this utter cunt taking the piss out of the club for nearly a decade and a half. We finally get in a position where he is a willing seller, with buyers wanting to transform the club and area. This was no sideways step, this was a huge step forward with exciting times ahead. It was all there, ready to happen finally, you could feel the excitement coming back. Only for it to be completely shit upon by an organisation who under these tests are supposed to be looking out for the clubs best interests. It’s fucking mind blowingly frustrating and infuriating. We won’t ever get a chance like this again, yet Masters and his merry band of muppets have decided Mike is what’s best for Newcastle, so pipe down and get on with it. Fucking utter cunts the lot of them and shove your shit 6 team league right up your arses.

[Guest Cheesy Beans]

You’re all mistaken though. NUST had a cup of tea on Zoom with Masters and were ‘satisfied’ with the answers he gave. We can all run along into the sunset now holding hands and no further questions need to be asked.
