If today's events are not taken as a warning shot by the super-optimists then nothing will be. We are massively, massively up against it. The game is rigged beyond belief and the events in April have made no difference to who pulls all of the strings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We now know for certain that those running the game are in the pocket of six clubs, and therefore those clubs will receive all the assistance they need to maintain their position, wherever possible.

nbthree3 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) The article says nothing of the sort https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/newcastle-owner-mike-ashley-receives-144421784.html - Spellman is our PA North East sports reporter and Gardner posted the tweet thread earlier.

The only people who will know that 'for certain' are Ashley's legal team based on the documentation they have (which nobody has seen). You are not certain and basing it on opinion. Which brings me to the point I made, let the legal teams fight their cases based on actual documentation and arguments that they can present. You're like a rocking chair back and forwards the last few months, just let it play out man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbthree3 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) Here's the Ryder piece https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-takeover-mike-ashley-confident-20777907 Here's the PA piece he's reporting from https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/newcastle-owner-mike-ashley-receives-144421784.html Mike Ashley has had encouragement ahead of his big legal battle with the Premier League - after Saudi Arabia were taken off the American government’s piracy watchlist. - Ryder The report, which keeps Saudi Arabia on the US government’s priority watchlist, adds that illicit streaming devices “are widely available and generally unregulated in Saudi Arabia”. - PA PA are reporting that a £300million Saudi-led takeover should get the green light ahead of his Competition Appeal Tribunal and an arbitration battle penned in for July. - Ryder The matter is now the subject of arbitration proceedings, with Ashley instructing lawyers last September. Documents related to a separate Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT) claim by St James Holdings Ltd against the Premier League stated that the arbitration was due to start in July. - PA, not an explicit mention of green light just stating what will happen. The quotes he's sourced in the article are from the PA one I linked. Not cans in the slightest? Edited June 9, 2021 by nbthree3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not talking about our legal case and how strong it is, or what Ashley has on them in terms of how the PL have dealt with us. I'm simply referring to the levels of corruption within the halls of power of the PL. If you can't see that after today's "punishment" for those clubs then I don't know what else I can say really.
