    Just looked on the Scouse Mackem’s board and the last post was on the 30th January 2020. That’s over 6 months ago and even that was by a Liverpool supporter. Not exactly a popular Club.

    Source for what? That it's been withdrawn? PIF have said it. I have no reason to doubt them

    Literally all that's required now is for pif to announce they're back in and then the prem will get pressed to make a decision by fans and parliament.

    They can't fail it or they would have done.

    It going to be passed

    maybe a way how to get rid of them is to post on their board as no one seems to go there

    That’s the thing matey. PIF have to come to the table. And as yet they have not: this worries me.

    I’d a starving person doesn’t get food after 4 weeks they leave. If it takes 18 they are dead.

    Actually the test the PL were doing doesn’t include gauging the opinion of other teams, sponsors or commercial partners so you are talking abject nonsense.

    Has the PL ever officially commented on a takeover that hasn't gone through before?

    Probably not actually. Presumably it's just left to the old/new owners to announce it when it's gone through.

    I remember reading an article before which stated that more people had failed the test than most people realise but the information just wasn't in the public domain.

    Have they ever taken four months and still not made a decision before?

    Are we playing the answer a question with a question game?

    Not like there's been a pandemic recently and an unprecedented schedule of games to sort.

    Although if reports are to be believed they were still waiting info from PIF.
