    good point. He’d not waste his money on arbitration unless this specific sale needed to go through.

    I'm just sitting on the sceptical side of the fence, which I'm allowed to do. I'm not insulting any poster on here, or saying it's all made up, just that Twitter keeps putting deadlines out and we should focus on the facts so we don't get hopes built up.

    No issue with anyone!

    Sorry, it was just I put a post on here almost a year ago about how there was always these milestones, and they always come and go, so was a bit of a laugh adding new ones to the takeover calendar. Maybe Chaos can even find the post - but, yeah, July 4th, deadline day, Xmas, all included.

    There's been loads of false reports and it's usually mouth arse the Tyne

    It was never going to go through unless it was early January maybe and after the window shut after safety was confirmed (officially) which is still not the case

    We're safe the value of the product is known and all parties can now press fwd without uncertainty on the value of the purchase

    Thing is, they need to move fast because before you know it, we'll be in the middle of a transfer window sitting on a kitty of £0 with offers for ASM. Time is not a big commodity in football.

    Not just that. The UK is on the brink of coming out of lockdown. Which means fans in stadiums maybe next season.

    This one is happening. If the PL continue to play hardball then Ashley will pursue the competition law claim. He will win that. Why? The ESL is persuasive. The big six have pretty much proven that their own interests are all that matters.

    That one is the killer.

    The competition law case is a clever way to bypass arbitration privacy rules.

    The judgement will be public.

    I could not care about the Ponytail. I've been consistent. The Ponytail doesn't even realise who the best centre half the Entertainer's had was.

    When you have 320 billion things move a little faster than we're used to
