    God imagine Bruce’s first press conference. I bet he will be smiling like a Cheshire Cat.

    No, the Saudis deliberately withdrew from the process to avoid the PL giving the reason

    The reason is the investment fund is a #bentasfuck front and they were trying to hide the fact that Mohammed bin Salman would be the real owner

    Your club that you watch via illegal stream as you’ve never set foot in Anfield.

    I’ll always support Newcastle United.

    But I for sure have lost a lot of interest and passion. How anyone can have passion for a Ashley ran, Bruce managed football club isn’t human-like.

    I get more entertainment watching me dog chase his back end about in the garden. Absolute dross.

    I love the club, I hate what’s inside the club.

    I'll be keeping track of results but not wasting my time watching matches anymore - some of the stuff on show this year was awful - would have honestly been more enjoyable using a nail gun to tack your bollocks to ply-board covered in broken glass.

    I despise Ashley, but it’s the Arabs that have pulled out due to the length of time it’s taking. I believe he does want to sell this time. One things for sure, I’m not turning my back on my club, never in a million years.

    I'm not sure it's the club that's at fault it's the secret not knowing what the ****ing process is to be an owner from the PL is the ****ing problem

    no other owners have come under such scrutiny

    I hate the ****ers that run the PL
    I have said the PL are corrupt and have been for years

    Can't blame Ashley or the Saudis for this.

    Sounds like the PL cartel has applied enough pressure to prevent it. You only have to look at recent events with City to see where the power lies.

    The press will surely put pressure on the PL to find out what happened and why?

    We will never find out why they have pulled out.

    I would love it (not KK style) if Ashley came out and released a statement. He won’t though.

    Remember it’s his asset and the PL have potentially cost him a lot of money! He wanted to sell.

    No other owner (bin Salman) has tried to hide their identity so much by setting up an "investment fund" as a front.

    The PL asked who the legal owner would be and they ran away.
