    Seems like a fair appraisal to be honest.

    No I'm perfectly fine mate in just aware that a few months really is nothing and that fan reaction is disproportional to the reality as always.

    I didn’t get that tag bro. My tags are ****ed.

    All I was saying is this only ends when both parties can walk away with their reputation intact, so brace yourselves for a defeat that might feel like a win.

    Depends like I've said there's no evidence other than its adjourned and until its confirmed off its not off

    That's the spirit.

    All we've got is news it's been adjourned and people speculating.

    Let's see its not ideal but I feel if it was over we'd be due a statement within a few days

    Mate, it’s time to stop. Thread needs to be locked and closed, the only thing you might get is a closing statement of some sorts in the next day or two, but given Ashley’s track record of communication I wouldn’t hold your breath there either.

    That's just what you and the others think, but let's not forget it's not over.

    If you recall my position has always been that a deal will be done before arbitration.

    The CAT case will hopefully be confirmed this week and hope hopefully the premier league will fail in their attempt to make it private.

    Then I believe they'll do a deal.

    It's long been my belief and I'll save you the screenshots

    You also believed things about arbitration that have just been shat on.

    Don’t trust people like Ashley or Staveley. It only ends one way.

    Just accept my position and leave it there.

    You can keep moaning and jumping to the negative view you always do mate

    You're entitled to it but make a note that I've been out on my own saying that it'll fi through before arbitration ever takes place :emoticon-0148-yes:

    this is the bit I can’t get my head around.
    I think either:

    1- NUFC have been asked by the panel to toe the line and are being co-operative so as not to piss them off.

    2- NUFC have been told that the PL need time to work on a plan to allow the takeover to proceed.


    The behaviour i’d actually expect is that NUFC scream and shout about the PL publically or via back channels.

    also I can’t work out the purpose of all that noise from Staveley.

    Look guys if you want to move on then move on.

    I'm not until it's actually concluded.

    That's it

    Seems to me that the only logical explanation is that the club have got it wrong and been told to keep quiet until the race is run.

    We can all choose to believe what we want but I’ve thought this was dead for ages and today has confirmed it. Not that anyone cares but I said the same as DPP, if it’s Ashley/Bruce 1st Sept I’m done. I’ll stick to my local village team and coaching the kids, **** Ashley and **** the premier league.

    Chadwick goes with the wind tbh. He was adamant it was through last year. That's not to say I think he's wrong, but I feel he's being more reactive than perceptive.

    Sadly, I think that's me done with things. Life has hit me like a ton of bricks lately with some family illness, and dedicating time to tracking a deal that likely won't come off, all because rich white men in suits can't get their **** together, just feels like time I could be spending with people that matter.
