In short, no matter who the owner is now - what we have now is what we’ll be forced to start and persevere with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was aware that the takeover could happen over the summer but thought Everton was the better option. He could have waited if he had really wanted to come back and finish what he started but we are where we are. Time to move on from that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Do we think the takeover team will play a major role in running the club day to day ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean by takeover team? If you mean Staveley, then yes, I’d imagine she would run it day to day. She has even previously said that her employees were in the process of buying houses in the area whilst the deal was ongoing last summer. I think PIF and the Reubens will be more hands off.

Mattoon Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I think I'm over Rafa now, what he did for us, not just with the team but I'm sure he had a hand in the takeover and he woke up a sleepwalking supporter base stuck in a perpetual nightmare. I do believe he would have been perfect to rebuild NUFC from the ashes, however I also believe the consortium have their own ideas in mind and I trust them to make the right appointment to take us forward. Rafa is with Everton now, for all the rights and wrongs of that, he's made his decision and we know he doesn't break contracts. If this takeover goes through we need to move forward ASAP.

Aye, it seems like her husband is going to be involved as well possibly Jamie Reuban, it looks like they will need a lot of backroom office staff to make up the years of decline, I would love to see her business plan she mentioned on talksport the other day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbthree3 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 It's like looking into a weird alternate universe where we can attract anyone! Looking at unemployed managers for starters, I can't look past Conte for now. Just like it would've been Poch last year amid alleged interest, Sky ran with that and Allegri etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wandy Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I know that we failed to get transparacy of all the intricate details as to how the arbitration verdict was reached but....the actual verdict has to be made public as soon as it has been reached, doesnt it?

No. If the takeover fails we know arbitration fails. If it goes through, then either we have reached a settlement or won arbitration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbthree3 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I can't remember a "board dispute" arbitration to base precedent upon. Conte at Chelsea was a manager's tribunal and even that was leaked, including the day the hearing began and the day - two months later - a decision was made. The actual judgment I don't think was made public for that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
