    Been thinking about this news and the control element of things. I’m wondering if it’s linked to the lifting of the FFP rules aswell.

    The fact is a limited company is setup to purchase nufc from St James holdings Ltd. The directors run the club on behalf of the owner(s). Who in our case will be PIF 80% RB 10% and AS 10%.

    How can you establish who has outright control?

    953 pages and 4 months of false hope.

    you have to realise just how pointless football is . I mean we've reached a time where fans are sitting around hoping for takeovers knowing otherwise there's no chance of competing never mind win a cup. unlikley takeovers by owners with great wealth and even when that unlikely event occurs the powers that be deny it.

    just got to take comfort in the fact Ashley wants out, so eventually someone or some consortium will come along if we stay afloat long enough .. I don't care if aren't stupid rich.. just someone with enough to compete higher and maybe have even a remote chance of winning a cup .. that's all .. this whole things been exciting but it's just not going to be sadly..

    nothing lasts and Ashley will won't either

    so what happens next? PIF agree that he has overall control. PL reject it?

    Or they say he has no say. PL don’t believe it. So we just stall?

    it would appear the link to Salman would be a direct link to piracy and they will fail it.

    they will simply hide behind lack of information until they provide the link

    so

    it's ****ed

    He looks a little like Richard Keys.

    Anyhoo. It’s clear as day who runs PIF but how do we get around that?

    if the premier league wanted pass it they would

    the fact they've gone this route makes it abundantly clear they don't want it passed .

    see previous post

    2 options .

    they've put the bid in checkmate

    Not at all. If it was going to be rejected it would have been a long time ago.
