    His tone makes it sound like the PL have succeeded in kicking the can down the road again.

    The only kind of fan action that would make a difference and get this in the national news is physical disorder outside the PL's HQ. Our fans simply havent got it in them do that but Man Utd and Liverpool fans would be all over it in a shot.

    I think it'll happen.

    There's an uprising about to take place.

    My email was short and concise... It's the numbers that are going to count not the content, so just write something and click send.

    If you want more Joelinton's and less Saint Maximins then do nothing.

    I might irritate people on here, but I'll tell you this I'm going to get thumb burn this week peppering mps with emails.

    I'm going to fight for this city and this club

    Emails and petitions wont make a blind bit of difference. Its been pointed out many times that nobody outside of our own support either cares about this or wants it to go through. The PL's twiiter account was bombarded with hostility last summer and they didnt give a ****.

    I have to say, the club statement and now this tweet from Ghoudussi doesnt tally with the idea that the club are in a strong position to win, or @Sheikh_of_Araby 's claim that negotiations are happening.

    Doing nothing will do even less and this is clearly about avoiding a 50/50 arbitration.

    No harm in trying

    The sooner folks make peace with this reality the better for their own sanity.

    As short as I can put it, none of this CAT/Arb matters.

    Tbh you told us all this crap before it resurfaced and the case was made public.

    Stavely told us if we wanted it back on we had to go to the premier league, so we did and PIF came back to the table.

    Now we're being asked by our QC to send an email, so I have

    There is harm though. By sending emails etc you are raising your hopes up and therefore setting yourself up for more hurt if the takeover doesnt happen.

    Do yourself a favour mate. Relax and let it play out by itself. If Ashley is now relying on fan protests to get this through then he clearly has no case.

    Mate fill your boots, however you want to think is up to you. I could well be wrong, I’m just not going to spend another second of my life thinking things are going to magically happen!

    Well you're entitled to that view mate and I respect that and understand what you're saying, but I personally believe this is what I've been asked to do so I have.


    The 1st time they asked I did the same and it definitely did something because pif had walked away before hand.

    I would like to thank the Newcastle United Supporters’ Trust and all Newcastle fans for their incredible backing and huge efforts over the past few days and beyond. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.


    Speaking on behalf of myself and my husband, the Reuben family and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, we are not just overwhelmed by your support, we are humbled by it.

    Our group has received emails and messages in the thousands and I can’t begin to tell you what that means to us. We do not take it for granted.

    We understand that a strong Supporters’ Trust means a strong Newcastle.

    And we understand and have seen again just how powerful and beautiful a united Newcastle can truly be.

    Definitely do not hang off anything that clown Patterson has to say. For months he has said Ashley's evidence is.dynamite and now he's making out it depends on it being played out in the public eye. He's full of ****.

    Thought you said there would be no legal cases happening anyway?

    I think it's clear we're being asked by the legal team to email our mps and it's not a huge ask so I have mate... I agree about patterson I'm not a big fan but he's paid alot of money and tried to do something.

    Yes I believe the aim has always been as nick demarco said to avoid arbitration and I believe if transparency of the case is given that the premier league will fold and there will be no cases.

    It's 50/50 if it goes that far and the premier league have no reason not to roll the dice as none of they foul play will be exposed either way.

    It's up to you mate but I've done it and it took 2 mins.

    The PL are definitely hiding something. Convinced of it even more now.

    They apparently have something that is so bad that if they gain transparency the premier league will be forced to accept the takeover before court.

    Otherwise they'll go with the 50/50 case as they've come this far and have nothing to fear

    That is my reading of this anyway?
