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


Recommended Posts

Maybe it’s Qatar that has bought those properties? Just to throw another spanner in the works.

 

That sounds batshit crazy. Maybe they just sold the flats to a Middle East investment group that fucking hates football.

 

If Saudi were going to buy the club and money was no object, they’d look at other options. (Leazes Park)

 

The damage has already been done by Mike Ashley with regards to any future development of SJP, it’s almost impossible to reverse that

I did just make it up. Just a thought.

I imagine they'd look at all options, not just other options.

I had a response from my dweeb of an MP, sort of

 

Dear William Pilgrim

 

Thank you for getting in touch about the Premier League and NUFC.

 

Richard wrote to the Premier League on November 24th to ask what was going on, and what the next steps are following the failed takeover of NUFC. He knows the strength of feeling of his constituents on this issue, and is concerned that the process has not been transparent and that his constituents deserve answers.

 

Richard has spoken to Guy Opperman, his neighbouring MP, about this issue – see here – https://twitter.com/RicHolden/status/1291484530071805959. He has also previously written to the Premier League about this – see here – https://www.richardholden.org.uk/news/richard-holden-writes-premier-league-seek-clarity-about-nufc-takeover – and is now awaiting a response to his more recent letter.

 

Once we have heard back from them and have more clarity about the situation, we will be able to update you. Richard may do a press release on this, but there will certainly be some information put up on his website when we have more info.

 

 

Kind regards,

Sarah

Senior Parliamentary Assistant to Richard Holden MP

 

My response to the response:

 

Hi Sarah,

 

Thank you for responding and I look forward to seeing what he has to say on the matter. I always understood it to be the case that Tories absolutely love money so would be curious to see a situation where the biggest pot of gold in the world was hand delivered to the region and there wasn’t the fullest effort available to secure it.

 

Regards,

 

BP

Its died a death

Transfer window opens in 4 weeks

Move along nothing to see

 

 

Just stay out of this thread then. Instead of telling others what to believe. You're just annoying.

 

This is something I don't understand about those who keep, persistently, posting in this thread that any takeover is dead - if they believe that, why do they keep coming back to this thread?

 

Surely, if one believes that there is no active takeover activity then it would be a complete waste of time reading this thread unless the subject changed to indicate a new development.  So, therefor, I can only assume that those repeatedly commenting (in this thread) that the takeover is not happening are just trolls - which is why I ignore them completely.  I don't agree that they should be banned from the forum (I hope they've got something other than trolling to contribute to other threads) but it would be nice if there was the ability to temporarily suspend an account that is trolling a thread (just to give everyone a break from their persistent negativity).

Would love for some real investigative journalist to expose the level of interference going on from top 6, and expose the corruption preventing this takeover.

Hopeful. But realistic. Confident they've got a good chance. But also confident the PL and its power clubs will fight tooth and nail to deny it. Their legal team certainly are.

Surely fighting tooth & nail to deny it would be completely against the rules of the OD test & competition laws & would implicate those clubs further? You’d think they’d take a step back now it’s gone ‘legal’..?

Not if it is all hidden away, behind closed doors.

It seems to me that the foreign office didn’t particularly want the takeover either. What information were they given by the PL about their future plans that would have been disrupted had a takeover gone through?

 

The smell of corruption is wafting at this point.
