r0cafella Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 This is better than the football tbh We're actually attacking. On the subject, I find it difficult to infer this puts the deal back on. More Ashley is fuming and wants compensation. I mean I no other industry would you see a business takeover blocked in such ways. Ashley can’t sell his asset because of a third party quasi regulator Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 really makes me curious as to what was being said in various premier league meetings, obviously Charnley would have had to have tried to get something from Masters on this debacle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PIF could be calling for a review of the decision or looking into legal action, maybe they are but this is just Ashley trying to get some compensation. 17m isnt enough apparently. Sometimes it takes a dick to fuck an areshole. *insert Team America gif* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Eh. A bit too much Ashley cheering on twitter. He's still the enemy. An unholy alliance is being formed right before our eyes.

Guest Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 The President of the FA is a member of the Royal Family. Make sure we withdraw from the FA Cup too just in case they can’t differentiate the Football Association from the Royal Family. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley can’t sell his asset because of a third party quasi regulator The Competition & Markets Authority can block takeovers in other industries. They’re an independent body though, not the owner of a market deciding who’s allowed to join that market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 As part of the club considering all options, I also wonder if the option to just go ahead with sale has been considered and call the PL’s bluff. Now that would create an almighty mess, but would be great fun to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cheesy Beans Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Must be some impressive backtracking from NUST on the way. After all, it wasn’t that long ago after their tea party with Masters they were telling us how sincere he was. The club now coming out and specifically accusing him of not acting appropriately. Once again, they stick their finger in the air before making a decision on which side to hop into bed with, after lobbying for membership (£££) on the back of a crisis.

It might be exactly the right time to call their bluff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjohnson Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I'm willing to retract my statement that there was nothing going on. Obviously something was, but don't see how this is going to get PIF back, and isn't just a tactic for Ashley to get a bit of money out of the PL. Even if he's right and wins, he gets compensation....probably top 6 funded, but it doesn't bring the actual investors back, just shows the PL being questionable in behavior. May be some longer term implications in the longer term, but I think the best we would see out of it is Masters resigning with a promise to review the OD test Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
