nbthree3 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 If anyone wants a laugh. Keith's at it again All the replies to this conversation. I found Yousef to be quite grounded in his views based on public information, the CAT website. Matches up perfectly with what I understand - and what anyone looking at those documents could conclude. Keith by comparison is based on relative fantasy in this case, "failed to get thrown out" (the made private bit the club did refer in their statement so I'll hold on that one - " It is currently attempting to prevent the competition courts considering a claim by the Club’s sellers from taking place in public, arguing that too should be held in confidential arbitration.") The highlight of the replies for me. Not a slander at Keith though, the work he's done in the background setting up the CAT case is very admirable. But now it's the court's time to carry out the process in their own time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If De Marco's whole team adds up to that it's still only 200 hours. Doubt it's into 8 figures but it's been going on long enough to have hit the -illions territory imo.

The bloke is banned by the BBC and told lies in the last takeover, which caused the Chronicle to pull a podcast within 24 hours. Just wait for the cases (arbitration first) to conclude, everything else either positive or negative is just noise, by people desperate to feel important.

ToonArmy1892 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Sheikh_of_ArabyWell-Known Member Arbitration is a process to settle a dispute. It is ADR and a step further than mediation. Both parties are encouraged to settle prior to the final hearing. The mistake that people make is believing that it is a court case. It's not. While decisions are legally binding, it is informal. There is no cross examination of witnesses. Both sides present their argument and evidence. The arbitrators then make a decision. As there is only one issue to decide - separation, it will last no longer than 2-3 days. How do I know? I have acted in Tribunals.

Scotty66 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Keith got absolutely schooled in those tweets. I do believe he has done a lot of good work for helping this takeover and putting pressure on the PL but my god, he needs to stop acting like an absolute cunt and making out he is the be all and end all of twitter. The audacity to tell someone they know nothing when he knows nothing about them is really shitty. He's a grown man ffs, yet acts like a spoiled 13 year old.

gdm Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Just watched the bit of the Ben Jacobs thing and his comments were taken out of context. he basically says all the interviews and rallying cry for transparency suggests they aren’t as confident on the key point of separation and if they prove that they are seperate it would go thru. He’s basically saying if they win arbitration the takeover will go thru which is what we assume ourselves but he’s also saying he doesn’t think the consortium are all that confident as they make out to be on the point of separation. Amazing how they’ve missed out the first part of the conversation to make it seem ultra positive when really it’s not 20 mins in listen for yourself https://youtu.be/lktNumnKUFE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
