Scoot Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Edwards seems to have taken it personally that Liam Kennedy has become the go to journo on this story. @LukeEdwardsTele I had never heard of him before this case... Let’s hope he’s as good as he sounds. Bring it home Robert. Bring it home. Quote Tweet @LiamJKennedy23 · 1h Just who is Robert O'Donoghue? Meet the straight-talking, Northern Irish, anti-competition specialist who is set to take the #NUFCTakeover battle to the Premier League. He's been utterly raging about this takeover since the beginning and the reason for that is because he has no sources linked to the consortium. So like a spoilt little brat, he's going on the way he is/has done since april. I mean, who on earth goes on like he does? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I'd imagine Luke will still be going on about how he thinks we mistreated Steve Bruce in a post-takeover scenario where we've just qualified for the Europa League semi's 5/6 years down the line. He's going to be insufferable for a very long time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We harp back to the “glory days” of Kevin Keegan and Sir Bobby Robson when we challenged amongst the elite, chasing the EPL title and also playing in the Champions League. We have longed and hoped for something different. We live and breathe our club every day, do you actually understand what that means? FFS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably daft but it could be anything was wondering if it was a distraction technique while demarco builds a case. Maybe trying to lull PL In to false sense of security as they’d likely just laugh this threat off or even just simply piling on pressure from all different angles.

James Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I think it is without question that the club paid this groups legal fees. There are a few reasons for this I can think of: 1. The preferred legal route requires a ‘customer’ 2. They had written some letters a couple of months ago which had statutory response times, so this is the speedier route 3. Generally coordinated attack of the PL from all angles 4. To add further pressure on PL without directly antagonising them 5. To break the legal action in smaller chunks to possibly avoid lengthy pre-arguments on which courts have what jurisdiction 6. To make an early grab on all PL communications. Regardless have to move on from the idea that this is just a couple of chancers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 That was from 6 August. It’s old news. That said, Dickie Masters and his cronies will probably have had a good laugh at the use of the words ‘Harp back’. The correct phrase is ‘Hark back’ While I’m at it, the correct phrase is ‘change tack’ (a sailing term meaning change direction) and not ‘change tact’. And don’t get me started on the correct use of the word ‘Peddled’.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
