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


Recommended Posts

 

I’m all for putting pressure on but this letter seems like absolutely waste of time without any clout behind it at all.

 

Good luck to the people involved for trying but I’m really finding it hard to expect anything at all from it.

Be a right kick in the tits if the QC reads it and says it’s actually all above board

 

I agree there is a real danger of this happening. 

 

Just from my own observations about the Premier League as an organisation, I think this is VERY unlikely.

 

Having said that, neither do I think that the P L will come totally clean with the documents / information they provide. Much further investigation and probably more than one lot of Legal Action (beyond what has already happened) is likely to be needed.

Well it clearly isn't the transparent sharing of all the information requested by NCSL. It sounds like a short case explaining why everything was fair and above board. Probably the response expected by NCSL. Off to court with a request of full disclosure next then.

It’s all part of the legal game. They were hardly gonna say ‘oh yeh, you were right lads. Go on, have a takeover’

 

This, bit like when Masters spoke at the fans meeting, some people just accepted what he said as being true and give up.

 

I don’t think these lads will roll over that easily. The fact PL have responded tells you there taking this seriously.

Well not really. Not everyone is as optimistic as you manorpark.

 

On top of that, bar Liam Kennedy/ITKs, what concrete info is there that this is going to get overturned?

 

Newcastle fans and pessimism go hand in hand.

Might not happen in the end I don't know...maybe it will.  But fully agree with with this.

Think this is what Ashley's legal team wanted and expected. They now know the PL want to drag this on and from here onwards, all of it will get disclosed. Depending on how much the PL want to ride it through.

 

Didn't Mimms[/member]  say something was going to move along soon?

As dodgy as f*** that Ben Jacobs gets all the PL leaks btw.

 

They're doing nothing but fan the flames about Qatar/Bein links given Jacob's history and fairly obvious allegiences.

 

He’s been the only journalist that’s been accurate throughout this entire process beginning in March. He’s basically been like the grim reaper for us as it’s always been bad news too.

PL checkmate.

NCSL have been flogging a dead horse.

 

As negative as ever I see. :lol:

You know me Scoot :blush:

But let’s recap the facts: 

Buyers  officially withdraw offer

Manager confirms deal dead

Owner starts legal proceedings due to failure of sale

PL says nothing to answer to wrt breach of competition act.

 

 

To counter that we have:

Mimms posts (hope he really has a contact by the way) and a couple of old fellas posting telling everyone one that no news is good news (I admire their optimism). A bloke posting about bread and a few Twitter likes to fans

I just hate it the PL is determined to do us. I dont agree on saying negative things on this two chaps. They are doing thier best.

 

The only problem I am having is the sheer confidence of the bread baking lawyer. they should work hard to get things done than showing confidence in this process.
