geordie_b Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I know it's a completely separate issue, but what happened to the outcome of Staveley's case against Barclays being 'imminent'? Fully appreciate the word has lost all meaning with regards to our own takeover, but it's one that keeps cropping up. Am I missing something? Has the definition changed? "About to happen" says Google. Are there actually loads of people out there who don't understand the term?! The 'imminent' article was published on Friday, not like it was weeks ago...

Hhtoon Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Ben Jacobs is stirring up our fans excitement needlessly for attention. [tweet]1363910767817465857[/tweet]?s=21 The bloke has a lifetime ban from the BBC tells you everything you need to know about Jacobs. A couple of podcasts later and he’s raising hopes and has fans giving him the attention he craves, personally wouldn’t trust one thing that bloke says. Why was he banned from the BBC? Edit - just saw the daily mail article. Bizarre Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we stay up the noises already are that there’ll be no money to spend, and that’s the best case scenario. Should we get relegated you can bet your life Bruce will not be paid off, and will get the job to bring us back up. I’d even predict should the mackems come up, they’d spend more than us and probably with momentum of promotion have a better season. In either scenario that won’t be a club I’ll be supporting any longer. Luckily my view is Ashley has already abandoned ship and we’ll have our club back soon. The only question is which division that’ll be in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackyboy Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I find it very difficult to stop believing that there will be a takeover soon. The reason for that is that I'm desperate for just a glimmer of hope. When I stop letting my heart rule my head I see a different picture. If there really was a takeover in the offing then I would expect Ashley and the potential new owners to come together to protect the investment. They would have ditched Bruce and brought in the man who would be the new manager. Neither party would have allowed the situation to become as desperate as it is now and risk relegation.

They would have ditched Bruce and brought in the man who would be the new manager. Neither party would have allowed the situation to become as desperate as it is now and risk relegation. That is pretty much my take on things. There seems very little pressure on Bruce's position. The Jones appointment doesn't suggest that they are looking to move Bruce on anytime soon. I suppose you could say the lack of fans in stadiums has helped ease that pressure on Bruce. If the takeover was looking pretty positive you'd like to think the buyers would be in Ashley's ears about the situation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbheed Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 A new appointment that isn't the consortium's first choice makes even less sense than sticking with Bruce. By most accounts, Rafa is the consortiums first choice and we already how that would pan out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Ashley not sacking Bruce could be seen in either a good or bad way - the takeover isn't coming so he's stubbornly sticking with his pal, or the takeover is so close that he'll leave it as their problem.

The only question is which division that’ll be in. I see this Takeover by Staveley/Reubens/PIF as the only real chance we will have to see our club become everything that I have known (all my life) that it is capable of being. It is such an excellent thing that this group of people have been able to realise how great - and unique - we can be with the right support (with 'their' support) and this fact of them and us together is what is making them REFUSE to give in. They are behaving how I would behave if I was in their position . . and yet they are not (historically) NUFC supporters like I am, like WE (on here) are - but they are not giving up, they are F I G H T I N G for our future. Whatever their original motivations for picking us were, they are now still in there, fighting for our (ours and theirs) future. THAT is why I have always known that they - and us - will ultimately succeed. Keep the faith people! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To visit teams in the Championship next season. Hey..maybe even a trip to the darkside again. Exactly and with Bruce in charge they’ll do the fucking double over us. The club could literally be finished for years if this doesn’t go through. If people think Ashley has been a disaster up to this point, I suspect a post covid and disinterested Ashley could exceed all our expectations. This is a tipping point whether you think this goes through or not, i literally don’t think there’ll be a club left worth supporting if it doesn’t.

Happinesstan Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 If we get relegated, and the takeover fails, we could well be fucked. There will be vultures looking to take the club off his hands [in some shady deal] and he'll take the deal that suits him best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll meet them in the Championship next season and Bruce will take us to League One. Mackems might just stay up coz Bruce makes us shitter than any other team, including them.
