    I do wonder if it's failed hence this Mauriss bid .. I understand people want to dismiss the obvious but It could be that surely?

    From what I understand, the club cannot accept another bid unless the Saudi's bid has failed. I'm no legal expert, just going off what I've read so not sure if that's true or not. It's not an auction, although it would probably have all been done quicker if the fat ****er had just chucked us on ebay like !!

    The only thing that makes me think it’s not the case is why would he offer 350m and not just 300m.

    This guy is more of a crook than any PIF member anyways. The ducking FBI are looking at him. Fit and proper persons test. I don’t think so!

    350 million dollars is just under 300million pounds

    that will be the answer

    You've been told the PL will not announce anything.

    Therefore we have to assume at some point the decision has been made and we are awaiting the funds to go through

    I think we would have heard about it long before now, so more probably bollocks about this Maruiss fella....unless you can actually accept more than 1 bid.

    If this goes on any longer it may actually lead to some sort of war between Saudi and Qatar....all caused by Mike Ashley <laugh><laugh>

    The thing is im being open minded .. I'm not ruling anything out.

    I mean it is possible what I'm suggesting might be the case .

    there seems some belief from people that if it fails/failed it would be made public.. that isn't the case. The buyers and sellers would be advised .. then they would say nothing they don't have to

    If this Henry thing is true then we are 100% not having Ashley at the end of this are we.

    I don't know anything about Henry Mauriss, but I don't really know much about the Saudi Arabian geo-political agenda either so, **** it I don't care.

    1. failed
    2. say nothing
    3. mauriss bid
    4. announce mauriss takeover

    that's all that would happen.. the other failed takeover would be left to speculation and that suits all parties more than a finger pointing excersize and disclosure won't effect any legal claims or stop then being made either.

    It would seem that way, but Mauriss isn't rich enough for a premier league club these days... not even a billionaire

    You will soon change your tune like an old guitar based on some twitter post.
    Been funny as Fook to watch you twist and turn on the opinion of some ITK

    We don't know his net worth, but net worth means nothing in comparison to your physical cash.

    He's just bid £350M, so I would wager he's wealthier than Ashley and GACP who were interested in the club.
