    This unnamed American consortium story concerns me. seems to me like a softener for the bad news heading our way. I would go as far as saying it's a clever approach.

    Think it's just stirring. Now that the PL Project Restart has fin lly concluded, their focus is now on the takeover.

    I'll come back when the Takeover is back on the agenda!

    Anyway it's a ecumenical matter.

    I don't know why that would be bad news? Getting a super-powered NUFC would be great, obviously, but I'd be more than happy with a decent FSG/L'pool model as well.

    Anything but ****ing Ashley, to be honest. I mean, Wigan's takeover revealed they have 4 existing directors, with 3 more coming in from the new Chinese owners. 7 directors in total. We have Lee ****ing Charnley. It beggars belief.

    sorry I'm suggesting it's not real and just a cunning method to soften the blow of the deal being blocked. a deliberate leak if you like.. a pill to hand out.

    I get you can see it that way I suppose, but I feel like it's just a standard response and we can't read much more into it beyond what it says

    It is a standard response. People will look into it whichever way they want but due to the sensitivity of the process, there will be no bias or prejudice either way.

    You do realise that this isn’t the voice of reason thread?? This forum has only been going for about 9 years and no-one has found a need to open a thread voicing reasonable comments and so you will need to start a new thread if you want to post any more of that sort of stuff on here.

    If the Premier League are spending all this time looking into our new prospective owners and taking this long etc.

    Why then are they not looking into why the club isn't paying back the season ticket money and continue to take next seasons money as well. This is akin to theft!

    The fact they appear to be thorough is good news. They can't be accused of bias or underhand motivations.

    Their inaction in relation to tickets is however a joke.

    She's currently suing Barclays Bank for £1.6 Billlion as we speak if the stories are to be believed...
