    Amnesty and BEIN has no influence on the fit and proper persons test. The test is concerned with UK finance/ company law.

    Human rights and alleged piracy of matches does not come in to it.

    It isn't

    funny all the fakeover/flat earthers have suddenly gone all in on another assumption.

    I was adamant this was real months ago.

    some on here just jump from one extreme to the other and hold their position as if it's a fact .

    its not done ...

    its always been happening and we're at the final stages, but nothing is ever done until it's official.

    As mentioned to you, just because YOU haven't got official confirmation doesn't mean it's not done.

    It is done.

    It is done.

    It is done.

    Patience clearly is not your strongest virtue
    Negativity prevailing over realism

    I won't respond to you on the takeover until YOU get official confirmation.

    If this does fall through due to a media **** storm then the media should become the target. Ashley should ban all press from SJP and fans should hammer all the journos on social media. Amnesty referenced us... yet ignore what us fans say and want. ****ers.

    if it falls through it will be a deep scar.. the arseholes will rub it big time.. then apart from that Ashley stays and the already dead club will be worse than it was before this

    If the PL gave In to pressure from Qatar then, given the controversy over bribery for the WC This will reflect extremely badly on them. Other clubs shouldn’t have a say In the takeover either due to not having say on previous takeovers and also conflict of interests.

    I'm thinking Gladiator and I can't imagine Rafa strutting round the pitch after a game yelling " are you not entertained ".
    However if he did I can imagine the scene with half the crowd w@nking themselves into a frenzy screaming " yes Rafa, yes Rafa " and the other half screaming " f@ck off that was a bag of turgid sh!te "

    Really hope we don't go back to Rafa. Dodgy signings and turgid ****e even with hundreds of millions to spend. It would be like Maureen going to spuds.

    Can you imagine the atmosphere if Ashley and Bruce are still here next season? That would be worth the ticket money.

    It would take away the excitement of the pending takeover if Rafa came back, in my opinion. Should the takeover happen it's time to move forward.

    Although I agree it still does concern me. There is motion in the objection and the premier could consider the image impact of the saudis on the premier league.

    Having said that money talks and the premier league needs a pick me up. The financial impact of covid-19 is still to be seen but it has to be negative so what better way to prop up the league financially than to have the wealthiest fund involved.

    With all the brands associated with the pif. The over seas exposure is just going to make the premier league audience significantly bigger. Which means more money. More opportunities for advertisements. For sky. For by sport. For amazon. And Bein sports? Not sure why they are objecting if I am honest!
