    It’s shocking but not a surprise.

    I also think that the takeover is hanging in the balance because of the current PL/big six carry on.

    I think the PL will use it as an opportunity to decline the takeover. Or invoke additional rules to “ensure” it can’t happen.

    Im being negative I know!

    I’ve just been reading a key point that in June of last year the PL where 24 hours away from giving approval for the takeover and even informed the government.

    Why would they do that if the issues around the O & D test existed at the start of the 24 hours?

    The answer is clearly it didn’t, thus in that 24 hour window “someone” objected to it. That someone being either the big six or Bein sports!

    The PL where over a barrel from that someone and had to come up with something go effectively block the progress.

    Wouldn’t it be interesting if it came out that the big six blackmailed the PL?

    I never said he was doing OK I said he's been much better since our last relegation mate and he actually has apart from the Bruce appointment.

    Don't get me wrong I can't wait to see him leave, but I stand by my comments and feel it's clear people haven't read it correctly.

    It's my opinion that no takeover will happen until this is confirmed along with nufc confirmed as a premier league club next season.

    The buyers have to know that their 10 year plan can't be destroyed and that they won't lose their investment along with it

    Must admit, given the less-than-a-week turnaround for Jose to find a job, it's telling Rafa is still waiting.

    I think he had Qatar connections, so they used influence.

    Forget Mbappe

    We're going to sign Foden instead.
