    I mean, it really, really is. 8 weeks is the least it's been; that only signified the document on Companies House. From Jan to June there has been NOTHING from either buyer or seller, and even less from the PL themselves.

    It's really quite shambolic what football has become.

    Losing interest now. Got more pressing concerns. Been 4 weeks and I still haven't received my new passport. I can't apply for my Turkish residency without a passport. I can't move about Istanbul without it or a passport. FFS. I'm under house arrest..<laugh>

    I do, yes. Ludicrous though it seems given the content of the Companies House doc, and the comments from respected journalists, I find the black hole of info, the void that is NUFC, beyond comprehension.

    I tell you what else this proves - that anyone who's said, happily, on Sky that Man City/Mansour were 'good for the league' was, and is, absolutely full of ****. Anyone who has lauded their success, praised their methods, knocked one out over their 'style', was a complete bastard liar. There's no clamour for NUFC to replicate, no impetus from the PL to let NUFC have their takeover, no journalists lining up to "hope" that NUFC can repeat this. They've all been utterly silent, if not anti, the whole thing. So anyone who now says anything about glorious Man City can shut their ****ing pie-hole.

    That’s Ashley all over. Stavely got her fingers burned the last time by saying something, I reckon they’ve all been sworn to secrecy. No good for the fans though

    I said a month ago that we will here nothing and get no explanation or closure and I'm beginning to think the season will play out and come next season it'll have just gone away and MA will still be the owner.

    The crazy thing is that if the PIF failed the fit and proper person test for the right reasons it would actually restore some of my faith in football. However, I have so little faith in them that I wouldn't even trust them to dress it up as being for the right reasons, nevermind actually being for the right reasons. We all know that there are serious moral questions around the Saudi regime, but if it does fail, those reasons will have nothing to do with it.

    That’s my deepest concern. But one I’ve been banging the drum on for about a month now whereas a lot of other more positive minded folks (who forget we have had 13 years of utter tripe and also no luck whatsoever) have been saying it’s ok, the deal is done, yada yada yada!

    Chaos me and thee where just born to be negative bastards but also realistic negative bastards who should be worshipped!

    I honestly don't know what to expect now, but I'm edging towards it already having been failed .
