I like the idea of being the last and knowing all the teenagers that have been making a racket will have their lives taken away before they ever got stared
There's way more chance of the PIF takeover going through than you ever buying a round of drinks. That said, Trev does indeed suck my balls. But I ask him to take his teeth out first.
Did you notice his dig at Luke Edwards in it? There is no guarantee it will play out the way we all want it to – well, the way most bar a few luke-warm dissenting voices seem to want it to. But this legal action has significant legs. And the next few weeks could well prove to be some of the most crucial in Newcastle United’s
Personally I think this case is futile on its own, but has Ashley actually launched his or was it all piss and wind?
In some ways, having the fan-led action might mean the PL (and those potentially implicated from the 'top 6') might underestimate it, like most of the national press has so far. The fact that (despite it 'just' being fans): 1. the PL "have to' answer to the letter, or go to court 2. O'Donoghue is a top QC in this field 3. The case could cost millions Might just catch them out compared with if Ashley had gone in all guns. It would be funny if Liverpool and ManU owners simply dismiss it and then the PL turn round to them and say "No, we have to disclose EVERYTHING!". Would love to see the look on their faces.
Hopefully that's the case. That's what I'm saying. This is still legal action and involves a high profile QC. I hope they do underestimate the whole thing. If they do then they could get an unexpected kick in the balls.
I think they'll be happy to lose in court rather than let the Saudis in.. These people don't care about public opinion.. They're like drug dealers and know the punters will keep coming back
