Robster Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 It was always going to happen the way Edwards goes on, there’s plenty of tools out there. I’ve got no problem with him backing Bruce but he’s literally been goading the fans over it to the point it’s ridiculous. Do that and you’ve got to expect to attract a nugget eventually. That's not exactly the problem though is it. It's more the fact that Keith has liked it. Absolutely abhorrent from them/him. Can we put NUFC in the In Memoriam thread ?

Dr Jinx Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Everything to do with this “takeover” is absolutely cringey right now. I hope that Keith Lemon chap can afford whatever he’s spunked on that legal nonsense because he’ll be getting nout from Mandy now her Barclays meal ticket has sailed. We all made a lot of assumptions about what the Saudis plans were for the club, like they would throw money at the situation to succeed, we never considered that they might not do that which could have been equally as likely. Just a punt like they made with Uber and other investments that they dipped in and out of just as quick. Let’s face it, aside from Mike Ashley looking for compensation from the PL we’ve had absolutely no proof that the consortium are negotiating with him again. Zero. Again all assumptions from jaded supporters who are akin to the pilgrims going to Lourdes each year hoping their cancer might be cured. It’s as grim as that. The takeover as it is or was only exists now in the ramblings of a bunch of male Karen’s on Twitter. We should want nothing to do with it. Stop giving them the attention and the bullshit will stop. Maybe one day we’ll wake up to a story that it’s all done but right now all we have is a club that’s in limbo, with (mostly) detestable people from top to bottom (the owner, boardroom, manager, coaches and playing staff) It needs burning to the ground with a wicker man in the middle of the pitch for said detestables.

Disco Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 It'd be really nice to know the metric by which Bruce was appointed? Can only assume it was to make sure that there was no criticism of the club from the manager. Local man to placate smooth brains and yes man to placate themselves.

Teasy Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 People taking Edwards seriously ffs. The same idiot who's claimed there basically is no takeover is now claiming there is no longer a takeover as news? Which is it?, was it already off months ago like he said or is it just off now?, can't be right both times. I'd guess he's wrong both times. Seriously, people taking that mong seriously just confirms this is the negative takeover thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Taking it in context its a daft statement for Edwards to make, at this stage of the season when there is literally nothing Ashley can do to save Newcastle other than sack Bruce and replace him with a competent coaching set up Edwards has said he wont do that. For what is worth I think if we lose to West Brom I think Bruce is gone, Jones will stay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Any takeover that could be derailed by Luke Fucking Edwards is too fragile to exist in the first place. Is that who he's going to blame for it not happening? The idea that the takeover can be derailed by people being negative about it feeds into this weird belief that it can happen if enough people beleive in it and will it to be so, like a fairy getting its wings.

BlueStar Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 So given what we know about Mike Ashley, do we think he would a) Sell the club for 100m less than was supposedly on the table last year or b) Gamble and assume he can get the club back in the Premier League with minimal investment in players or coaching staff, fuck it up and leave us stranded in the wilderness for another decade.

I honestly don't know. I'd like to think that he's done with the club, and that he'd be happy to take what he can and leave, but you just don't know. It could very well be that he wants to talk and agrees to a smaller deal if we go down then suddenly get the urge to take a gamble again. We honestly don't know what he's thinking, and we don't know if he wants to focus his funds elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto2005 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 If he was that desperate to sell and get a good price why on earth would he gamble 100m+ on not sacking that fat twat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miggys First Goal Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I don't see him taking £100m less for the club. He'll definitely assume we can go back up at the first time of asking. I don't think we'd be that lucky third time around. If getting relegated results in him suffering financially, I'd love to see it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
manorpark Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Nothing has changed. Has Ashley issued a statement to say the Takeover is off? Has Staveley said that the Takeover is off? Have DeMarco and co told us they are no longer on the case? NO . . . they haven't. Things are still happening quietly behind the scenes - as they SHOULD be. Quiet - no leaks - is good. All we have to do (still . . . ) is just W A I T. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjmc Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 If he was that desperate to sell and get a good price why on earth would he gamble 100m+ on not sacking that fat twat. It's so close to being sold he only feels like a custodian waiting to hand over the keys or the sale is off and with eyes elsewhere in his business he simply is at an all time low of giving a shit.
