Guest Cheesy Beans Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Absolutely fucking farcical... The PL’s defence is ‘well actually, we’ve refused to make a decision’ How can this be allowed to continue? Even if it’s true, how can they sit here five months on refusing to make a decision. Read Caulkin’s twitter/NUFC statement and then read the PL’s statement and they couldn’t be further apart. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really give a toss if he's got something to back it up or not. I'm not invested in Ashley so if he gets criticised by other PL clubs and their mouthpieces in the media so what? At least it's good to see the PL being made to squirm in public rather than doing their dirt behind closed doors. We have nothing to lose by now, might as well enjoy the shit show.

Dokko Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I lost interest a few weeks ago and life has been much better for it. But I’ll gladly keep popping in ant checking on the car crash in hope it claims as many corrupt souls as possible. It’s a fully fledged soap opera now, treat it as such and enjoy the show.

NE27 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 So, am I right in thinking that unless NUFC pulled the takeover from PL it still stands? Obviously that's a big thing for nufc and the takeover, but unless nufc state that it's done and withdrawn to the prem, it officially isn't? Surely they have to apply their test, and ultimately fail it due to insufficient information being provided? How does it just stay open without a decision?

I believe Newcastle United said the PL rejected it and said Masters has acted the wanker. The PL responded by saying they wont be making a comment. Only for them to then make a comment by releasing a statement, and saying Masters didnt act a wanker & they haven't rejected any deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose the only thing I'm wondering now, is if the PL should've rejected the deal if Information wasn't forthcoming? They literally have no cutoff for takeover processes?

Yeah and that is where the PL really want to be hanged for, they should've made a decision months ago over this. If they have a valid legal excuse for rejecting the takeover then I'm fine with that, but to not make a decision to accept/reject is completely farcical.

Ankles Bennett Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Nobody able to tell me anything about Southampton's appeal then? It's quoted as gospel on here, but all I can find is an article stating the PL took time to investigate the company, not that the deal was rejected and re-submitted? It might well be the case but I'm interested in how people on here know so much about it. It took the PL 8 months to ratify the Southampton takeover. They rejected the original consortium takeover on the O&D test, and the guy who put it together then discarded the consortium and made his own takeover bid and he passed the O&D test and the takeover was then allowed.

nufcjb Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 All this would not have happened if the PL just passed the takeover, without reading letters from widows, human right groups and foreign broadcasters. Serves their arses right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
