    Joe will be collateral damage.... looking on from wherever he’s at, knowing what might have been if he’d only had a few weeks patience. He’s a lesson in self harm to everyone on the board. The grass will be greenest this side of the fence very very soon.
    As I told my ex wife.

    Next deadline (real one, not Ramadan-esque) is the 11th June whereby the PL has to have submitted its response to the Competition case, then I think the week after which is the arbitration response.

    So anytime between now and those dates we may get snippets, but most likely I expect the PL will follow through with rebuttals then do whatever it can to extend court dates.

    Our former head of sports science has left recently. Nothing takeover related, but I bet he knows what’s going on. Jamie A. Harley is the name.

    Bird and Bird are experts at procrastination designed to wear their opponent down. When that tactic fails they settle out of court.

    Bird and Bird are litigious in nature but view court as something to be avoided in most cases and advise their clients accordingly.

    They planned from day 1 to delay and hoped they simply give up

    Yup. We will know for certain within the next 2 months. We can then either look forward or move on.

    Rumour doing the rounds that the PL asked for a further arbitration extension and were refused and warned.
