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


Recommended Posts

Pure coincidence maybe, but let's go cans anyway!

 

What would be more significant would be keeping an eye on JV1 the company PCP set up for the takeover of NUFC. Should Jamie Reuben be appointed director of JV1 then there could be something in this.

Wonder why he decided to step down now in respect of QPR when it's all quiet and not 6 months ago when it was everywhere?

My thoughts exactly. Could have stepped down out of respect to QPR when they personally released that statement about the deal falling through back in July.

:lol: My fuse is far too short on this forum to only have one. Although I did look and thought I had way more, but I only have five people on there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Could be coincidence.

 

Could be significant.

 

Could be VERY significant.  O0 :snod:

 

I'll go with the latter

Welcome to the third edition of the Black & White bulletin, our weekly look at NUFC matters. Some late, intriguing news on the NUFC takeover front as Jamie Reuben quits QPR.

 

What Jamie Reuben's resignation likely means for NUFC takeover.

 

So here we are again, back watching Companies House searching for clues as to what comes next in the long-running Newcastle takeover saga. Jamie Reuben resigning his QPR board role first came to light through a notification on Friday night, with no word from Rangers or the man himself.

 

It came as a surprise to those close to him, and was the first sign of something concrete from any of those involved in the deal for weeks. Sources were playing down any direct connection between this move and the takeover on Friday night. Reuben, though, remains keen to be part of this takeover. Nothing has changed since the statement issued by the Reubens back in the summer.

 

And what we do know is that work remains ongoing in the background on the takeover that all parties are still keen to complete. Saudi noses were certainly put out of joint, to the extent that PIF only want to be re-engaged when a definite conclusion is close. But the enthusiasm for owning the club survives, even if a sense of being hard done-by clings to those involved.

What we don't have - yet - is a public timeline for it, or any sign of the Premier League relenting on the key point surrounding disagreements over who would ultimately control the club. That's why there is legal action ongoing.

 

The Reuben morsel is a tasty one.

 

His resignation from his QPR board role was something that needed to happen for him to join the board of a Newcastle United that was under new management. The son of David Reuben, one of the UK's richest men, was understood to be enthused about the prospect of getting stuck into the black and white project and was brimming with ideas to improve the club on and off the pitch. He tweeted his heartbreak at the deal falling through in July and it later emerged he had been donating to the Foodbank, on the quiet, as the takeover process continued.

 

Many close to the process - and several independent observers - believe there will be more noise around the deal in the coming weeks and this is a convenient jump off point. Reuben would now be free to join any reconstituted board but we still seem a way off that. Not that it will stop the Companies House watchers. As part of the machinations of the summer, a shell company called JV1 Limited was set up to take the 20% of shares in Newcastle that the Reubens and Amanda Staveley would have in United. Two long-serving Reuben employees Stephane Nayum and Mehmet Saydam were both named as directors alongside Staveley. Reuben - who was to be involved in day-to-day Newcastle affairs - was not named.

 

Perhaps if there is movement there, we can start to look at the final boxes being ticked in this long-overdue deal.

Surely if it was as close as was many thought in the summer it would have had to already have been done in the summer?  ???
