    I believe that the reason why the accounts are delayed is because we have made massive loses. Or MA has taken his loan back out of the club!

    Didnt we get a seperate loan just recently.

    Might be that we have to sell ASM to balance the books.

    I just think he's a good player and we're a small club.

    Cancel Sky and stream matches. As a fanbase we should be illegally streaming games.

    ASM leaving isn't really surprising. His performances last year were clearly demonstrative of a player much better than the calibre of team he was in. Willock to Monaco would be an odd choice but again he will surely have better offers. Is another season of relegation battling appealing to anybody outside of the dross like Shelvey, Hendrick, Krafth, Clark etc that makes up the bulk of our squad?

    The takeover is effectively dead (not convinced PIF are even around anymore - Staveley was hoping to use her brokering skills to reel them back in). The CAT case will probably get thrown out so at least we'll have it formally ended by September.

    I can't muster the energy for this season. Too far away to do anything geographically, and not wasting more time on them. Can't even blame Bruce for this.

    I think the owners/directors would be as we’d understood; RB under their corporate identity, AS under her corporate identity, PIF under whatever they have as a corporate identity - ideally avoiding any prospective argument that MBS makes the PIF decisions…. And the key should be ‘who does..’ make PIF decisions, even if it belongs to him (MBS) that doesn’t mean he controls it…. maybe he has the decision about where and when to invest in a new entity, but that’s not one and the same as ‘controlling decision making once that entity is owned’.

    unforch, we are all ****ed and guessing as NOBODY tells us what the intricate issues and arguments are focussed on, and if we knew that then our guesswork would be more productive and our mindset would be less unhinged and victim-y

    As fans, we are utterly disregarded by all parties; corporate parties, club parties, judiciary, legal profession…. It’s a ****ing little boys’ party going on up there, but they dress up and pretend they’re the lifeblood of the game.
    I’m staying on the ride until a decision says I should get off; but I detest this ****ing capitalist charade

    I've been watching the Olympics and it's far more honest and rewarding.

    I reckon Rashford would do a better job than Tom Daley in the diving
