    I'm sure it doesn't help, but that's all. I'm sure this wasn't a surprise to anyone..... I think it's still all to play for personally.

    It doesn't. Only MBS and PIF.

    Damning though.

    It won't have come as a surprise. Unless the club and De Marco knew nothing of it...

    It hasn't been released yet and the media are playing dot the dot.

    Not sure it mentions PIF either

    Or it’s got bollock all to do with anything, because PiF aren’t buying the club.

    Court documents. They tried to kill someone else in Canada.

    It doesn't matter anyway I mean obviously he'd use his own planes he's the chairkaj of pif which was already the problem... We already knew he'd ordered the killing of kashoggi, so the situation is exactly as it was..

    For the record I’m a “if there’s smoke there’s fire” kind of guy.

    So I still think there’s something happening (pun intended) and that this news is just horseshit.

    Ashley’s not taking the Pl to arbitration if there’s no end game for him. What’s the point?

    So I think (I’ve said this a few times) that the arbitration is still to prove that pcp is not connected. But I reckon there’s a restructured deal.

    I can’t believe that Ashley would take all these gambles he has done with SB. Unless it suits him.

    I suppose the flip side is that the deal is dead in the water and that the club is financially strapped to death and that’s why SB has not been sacked. Because we cannot afford it?

    You don't need to be under the PL test. Conduct that would be a criminal offence in the UK is enough.

    The thing is we know they chopped this guy up and we knew mbs was already listed as chairman.

    He was on TV only a couple of weeks ago announcing things for pif..

    I feel the grounds for separation are still as they were and there must be some or they'd not have taken the case.

    It’s the only way that something happens. I quoted a couple of weeks ago that why don’t AS and RB take on the deal themselves. Even if it’s with Ashley. PIF can still do commercial deals that gets them exposure and when everything is sorted they can come in slowly as minority shareholders over time.
