Guest Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Really hope the soundbites are to push for this to happen sharpish so the new owners can get in their own players, manager, etc. Can't be arsed with this dragging out to October/November and the team having to just plunder our way through another year.

Don't agree with the "don't have time thing" given how much time has been wasted on this pledge exercise. Edit: should add that it will be great when the money does get donated to local charities obviously. Edited July 4, 2021 by Joey Linton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 What's the actual aim here, feel like I'm missing something? This Crouch woman isn't going to force the PL to anything or even try to. The PL aren't going to buckle at this stage because of some tweets and letters. Yes it's making things public which is good but the PL are their own governance right? It's not like there's someone else who can tell them to have the arbitration in public cause it looks bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleary a small dig at the fake ITKs like Keith and Wraith who are only after self-promotion instead of what’s best for the club. Greg is a top lad doing it for the right reasons.

She's the Chair of the review panel currently looking into English football governance, she could potentially make recommendations that could result in the PL losing its powers to self regulate. If the PL insist on this being held privately when everyone else wants it to be public it's a very bad look for them when the panel decide whether there needs to be independent regulation of the PL.

Perhaps yeah. Suppose there must be backchannels between the PL & Gov and we know Boz wants that sweet Saudi lucre in the country so assuming there's any joined up thinking in the Tory party that might be the play.

toontownman Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 The fact they went straight to meeting the big 6 before the rest of the rest of the league in terms of what would happen tells it's own story.

andyc35i Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 This is positive news in my opinion as it seems to suggests she still has the backing to buy the club. But I don’t get how this will change anything for us regarding a sale. The Premier League will just say they followed their own rules that NUFC signed up to as a member club. If we are aiming to prove that the rules are rigged and not fit for purpose then that’s all well and good, but PL will just deny everything even if it is in public Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
