    You've just said the same thing twice but in two different ways.... I'm confused..

    It's off and it's not still on mean the same thing...

    Was Redknapp on the sauce?

    He almost said that it will happen then stopped himself.

    Evidence suggests it's going to happen. Ashley being bullish and saying he wants it done within a month or two, Staveley on Bloomberg, NCSL/Keith being supremely confident (he has seen evidence), Ashley taking on the NCSL case, PL delaying (yet again) and the wide amount of scrutiny they are inviting upon themselves.

    If they lose this CAT claim, every club that's ever felt wronged by the PL can sue. I don't know who's advising the PL, but to my mind they're doing an astonishingly bad job.

    Ashley might win his CAT case, but I don't see any way in which NUFC can win the arbitration when Beloff is the one who will ultimately make the decision. The PL knew they had it in the bag when they wangled that one through.

    It’s beyond me that one man, Beloff, literally has the power to change the course of history for NUFC and the local area. Literally millions and millions of pounds of investment and jobs created for people in the NE.

    And one man can stop it as he is unfairly biased towards the PL.

    He should just fight Joshua and Wilder at the same time, he'd smash those 2 big dossers no bother

    Basically it shows that the UK courts are as dodgy as the PL themselves. It was a scandalous decision to allow Beloff to remain in place.

    I actually hope wilders corner don't save him this time. He actually sacked him for that you know... He made up all kinds of excuses and accused fury of cheating... I hate wilder he's a A grade bellend.


    The thing is it means fury will have had to beat that **** 3 times to get that belt... If wilder lands a lucky punch he'll run away rubbing it in and won't fight him ever again.

    America just hates the idea that the biggest fight in the sport and undisputed would be British, so they're shafting us..

    That can be challenged after the event. Judicial Review.

    I think he just wants the step aside money, I doubt he wants to get back in the ring with Fury after how it ended last time

    I guess it can be challenged either way can it?

    It can be challenged. Beloff should not have been allowed to remain as chair.

    Nah he's too thick and too arrogant.. He firmly believes his suit was too heavy, his water was spiked, fury had eggweights in his gloves and that fury was on steroids.

    He's also rather lose money than see someone get undisputed after all he talking he did about Joshua..

    He was out there laughing at Joshua and rubbing it on after the 1st ruiz fight .. He's a got no class.... I wish braeland let the fight go on.. Wilder had backed away into the corner and was about to quit

    Just re-reading the high court judgement - Beloff provided advice relating to KSA. He told the PL that KSA satisfied the elements of control to qualify as a director. He failed to disclose that at the time he was appointed to the panel.

    The other two members- Lord Neuberger and Lord Dyson. Two of the UK's most respected retired judges. Thry take no ****.

    The High Court therefore said that the only issue for arbitration is whether PIF and KSA are separate and whether the definition of KSA as a director is correct. Section F of the PL rule then comes to play so thst the ODT can be applied.

    Basically, the separation is established then the test is a mere formality.

    Exactly why I cannot understand the PL's delay. Just agree it's separate, get on with it and give the club a new owner and forget this whole sordid little affair.

    This cat case being upheld is the key otherwise they'll take their chances at arbitration.

    Arbitration is a coin toss apparently
