Of course journalists will stir things up for the next few days or however long it takes to get the deal done. “Ashley could pull out” generates more clicks than the truth, which is that we’re past the point of no return but these things take time to finalise. Truth is, it’s happening. Whether it is a universal good is another question - but Ashley has set the bar so low that it’s almost certainly an improvement.
been giving them the billions vid since u sent it.. they just seem bitter, but of course say they aren't worried.
The media really hate this idea of a powerful NUFC pushing up the league. Latest from Oliver Holt is a lovely example: That would be the same Oliver Holt who previously wrote this regarding some very similar circumstances, just not involving NUFC, which really highlights their agenda:
Selective memory. They don't want us to become successful because they like to call us delusional. Fact is we are the 8/9th most successful club in English football history. This takeover is a game changer. We have the potential to go from sleeping giant to massive. They know it and are trying to pour water on it. Southern media bias. No London club has the level of support that we or dare I say Sunderland has.
