    I hope all the other teams/fans now realise they have no hope of winning anything other than the championship
    as the PL don't want you to win anything in the PL
    this also puts a massive slant on the FA's role and competitions

    2007 -2008 the last time when the cup final didn't feature a team from the top 6

    ‘’We hope those exciting plans aren’t in vane we would welcome any resurrection of talks and progress with the Premier League, the Reuben brothers remain totally supportive of the deal should there be a way forward

    I have to say its seems likely to be back on the cards

    Why would the reubans say this publicly? If they were trying to let PIF know im sure they'd just have called them...

    Just as an update from yesterday I, disappointingly, have not heard back from the PL to my email to them.

    I have, therefore, sent a “chaser” email to them.

    Comments=Hello

    I sent you an email yesterday about the PL’s role in the failed Newcastle United bid and whilst I did not expect a full reply yet I did hope for the curtesy of an acknowledgement. I am disappointed to note that I have not had that acknowledgement from you.

    It may not be an important issue for you but I can assure you that it is an extremely important issue for Newcastle United fans. Currently over 50,000 fans have signed a petition seeking for an independent investigation into the PL’s handling of this takeover. I Further understand that the Football Ombudsman is to write to you following contact from a number of Newcastle United fans suggesting that you do make a statement in response to the concerns being raised about how the takeover was handled by the PL.

    It may be that the takeover was handled by you in accordance with the rules or, it may not. All the fans including myself are seeking is the truth as to what has gone on and what caused the prospective buyers to withdraw.

    I, therefore, look forward to hearing from you in response to my original email at your soonest convenience.

    Regards

    More updates as they occur.

    :)

    I have this weird feeling something could come back on about it.

    Seen Chopra’s tweet aswell. Interesting although may not have anything behind it.
