Fantail Breeze Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/PCP-v-Barclays-Summary.pdf Interesting that the judge largely confirms the truth of Staveley's allegations re the conduct of Barclays, but denies any compensation whatsoever on the grounds that PCP is basically a non-existent enterprise that had no real-world ability to raise any finance. That’s not true though is it, who brought Mansour to the table for the first Barclays bail out. Did she earn 300 million for f*** all ? https://www.euromoney.com/article/b12kjth9h0p0xf/revealed-the-truth-about-barclays-and-the-abu-dhabi-investment Ahh, you’re right. That silly High Court judge hasn’t got a clue compared to you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinky Jim Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Love the way this has turned into thread vs thread, its mental. It’s stupid that there are two threads in the first place as people are going to voice their opinions either way. People being positive about it we’re getting chased by people negative so they set up their own version. I set up the first thread back in March last year as “Futile optimism-The Saudi Takeover Edition” as a way of discussing the potential takeover...Days before it became a possible reality. The thread morphed into the “Takeover thread” when there was a good chance the takeover would happen........By May/June/July it looked down and out and we started the bickering war of its definitely on/definitely off.....So i started a new thread “Positive Optimism” as a means of bringing together those people who still felt there was a chance of the takeover happening, a place to put in hearsay/tweets etc rather than reopen the “Braindead” Thread. There is still a place for both threads...The takeover Thread provides the opportunity for deep discussion, whilst the Positive thread provides a light hearted break for those who want, perhaps, to escape reality?

Stifler Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 For what it’s worth the UN released a report which says the exact same as the US one does back in 2019. As we learned in the summer, that isn’t an issue that this deal will be tested on. The deal going ahead comes down to piracy and possibly the separation of PIF from the state. For what it’s worth it’s not even about spectating PIF from the state, but being convinced that the state couldn’t suddenly take a hold of NUFC or ask PIF to do things such as dispose of NUFC etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s stupid that there are two threads in the first place as people are going to voice their opinions either way. Yeap and it's ridiculous people want an echo chamber for their own particular thoughts. I see it similar to the separation between the transfer rumours thread and the braindead twitter lies thread. There's a clear distinction between fact and current understanding and fallacy and lies. Not to say something cant start in one thread and end up being relevant in the other.

Yorkie Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I see journalists are goading Newcastle fans on Twitter as a result of these Khashoggi findings. Utter cunts. Which one's? Barney Ronay is a really good writer but a miserable, dreary dullard. I'm a Guardian reader/listener and it produces a lot of great content, but that paper was always going to shit all over the concept of this takeover. When a story like this comes along, taking the piss out of a club/fans is just a bi-product of asserting/emphasising a political position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
