    yep basically all that has to happen is that mauriss and Ashley send the paperwork and if it passes Ashley will sell into mauriss.

    Ashley won't care who he gets the money from he'll just want it done..

    the premier league will see it as a solution ... they'll be like phew ... pass Mauriss right ****ing now..

    and boom everyone's happy except the toon fans who will be unable to complain because they just wanted Ashley out and anyone will do remember.

    indeed , but I can actually see something like this happening.. something else out the blue. He seems adamant that this is now under way and it's been constant throughout and not just him reporting it tbf.

    it would be like a get out of jail card for the prem

    It seems like it's got legs and any nufc fan should know how things usually end .. and when I say usually I of course mean ALWAYS

    You've just got to laugh, mate. All of us demanding Ashley out are going to end up with an even worse owner, some twat who doesn't have a pot to piss in.

    The only thing I was marginally interested in was Mauriss' alleged links to Branson.

    I was done before this takeover anyway so it'll just finish the job for me if it fails or mauriss is the new owner I've started watching other sports and intend to take up gold again to replace match days.

    lockdown made me realise life was easier without nufc

    I hope this isn't the one he's not bullshitting about . I do think the prem league would be relieved and pass it inn a heart beat and I do think Ashley would be happy with solution

    If the rumours about Mauriss are true then the PL would be wide open if they pass him after this fiasco.

    Daily Mirror. Ffs. It's almost as bad as the Sun. Please tell me people don't believe what they print.

    I personally don't think Mauriss exists. Sounds nuts, but it just looks odd to me. How is ANYONE that rich simply hidden from the interenet? I've had a little dig into it ages ago on this thread; he lives in a bog standard house somewhere and his company turnover is around $3m or something.

    I mean, he was supposed to be doing a PR offensive - there's not even a recent picture of him. Just really, really weird.

    Links to Qatar. Smells of a PR stunt.

    It's not a "TV company", mate. He broadcasts existing content to airports and such in the US. He runs an advertising agency.
