No updates from @Whitley mag today? I wonder why.... Aye. Not a peep from both @Whitley mag or @manorpark for a while but just wait and they'll come around and post together like clubs pulling out from the European Super League.

Probably because like all of us there’s no news, positive or negative out there to post.....and I don’t include edwards efforts as worthy of any news. I’m sure they will appear as soon as we get any titbits to feed us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I think we can all agree that news surrounding football since Sunday has been exhausting as well as riveting. I don’t think the appetite is there to go around the houses again on known info or guessing games on what we don’t. Its bubbling away under the surface and away from prying eyes. I’m far happier when we don’t have leaks or stupid stories from troll journos. The weekend will bring its own path, we lose to the dippers and it’ll be all doom and gloom until the next game, we get a point or 3 and we’re as good as safe. Takeover talk will soon resurface.

Candi_Hills Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) I am always reading that this takeover has been “exhausting” and that it’s not fair to get people’s hopes up as the strain could lead to mental collapse. I can honestly say football has never fatigued me to the point it affects my ability to function. Edited April 23, 2021 by Candi_Hills Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHoob Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Wonder if this is what Edwards was spunking his kegs over? The German article he links further down I assume suggests that there is some Saudi backing somewhere along the line for the ESL, but it's paywalled so nee idea.

Billy Pilgrim Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I had a feeling that PIF would end up being involved some how with the super league set hopes to aww for fucks sakes man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consortium of one Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Edwards is a mouth breather and I don't pay attention. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingcrofty Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 The article literally only says "the initial investment flowed from Saudi Arabia". Doesn't say PIF, doesn't say anything to do with anybody in government or anything whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nepharite Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 PIF have their money in so much it would be hard not to find some connection to them. It's an investment fund. PIF have money in Amazon, rumoured to have been approached to broadcast the ESL. This is just mischief making again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 The takeover/arbitration and the ESL have no direct connection though do they? Maybe I'm missing something. The PL are doing fuck all about the 6 clubs so what is the worry ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHoob Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Don't think you are missing anything, looks like Slater putting 2 and 2 together and getting 597. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awaymag Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Big news from Saudi Arabia.......they are running out of sand and have been nicking sand from Brighton. Newcastle Online........aw man, that's the takeover screwed then, De Marco will quit as he loves his Brighton view! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I mean this seems completely left field from Slater. Saudi backing of the club World Cup killed the deal now ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 That’s clearly not Edwards’ news like. I hate him as much as anyone but I love how everyone immediately ignores his information if it’s negative about the takeover Lap up some ITK from a random forum who knew one statement was going to be put on our website, but not a journalist who has sadly got more right than wrong about this takeover.

Stifler Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Having a negative outlook doesn’t make him ITK when things don’t go right. I don’t think Edwards has broken or been partial to any news during this takeover saga, he has just displayed an overall negative outlook. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saudi backing of the club World Cup killed the deal now ? I think what he is actually saying is 'I've not said anything about KSA money being behind the Super League, killing the NUFC deal, but KSA money was behind Infantino's 2019 CWC plan'. It was just confusingly written. Although, he then goes on to completely contradict himself by saying the SL would have been KSA backed.
