    I think some people are putting two and two together and getting 11

    Why cant we accept what Donald is saying at face value - its far from done yet

    IF it happens , it will still be a while if we accept the facts he's put out over the weekend

    Baffling how some would believe opinions of others but not info direct from horses mouth

    Firstly because he's a bit of a politician and what he says can't always be taken at face value.

    Secondly this is a chat forum where people chat about stuff.

    Thirdly, it's harmless.

    Fourthly he hasn't said that it's far from done, you may have imagines that.

    Why do you need to bring your negativity into this forum. PF is clearly your milieu.
    Is it because nobody gives a rat's 9rse for opinions like yours.

    Haven't been negative about anything Im as excited as anyone about the potential takeover - just accepting the facts that its nowhere near as close as has been made out

    Surely, unless you're now claiming to be ITK, you have no idea of what stage it's at.

    Isn't that true?

    'I said I can’t say too much but it’s not quite as advanced as people make out but better than 50/50. Nothing is done till it’s done.'

    Not quite '99%'

    What is it with these 'people'?
    They get so het up about something good on the basis it isnt signed sealed delivered in a way that suits them.
    They then proceed to darken every area of fan sunshine they can.
    Were they not hugged enough as kids.
    Has their mrs ran off with another woman?
    Baffling

    I have been on this forum a day and I am now having to put someone on ignore.
    That same poster is detested on PF so he now feels a need to pollute this forum.
    They add zilch to places like this.
    I suspect they add zilch to the community they live in.

    Don't put anyone on ignore mate, it's not that kind of forum.

    Just report them, the Mods will quietly observe and ban them without warning if they're obviously trying to spoil the board for decent people.

    Well aye, some thought there would be Netflix cameras in Consett, others thought it might be announced before the match, it obviously isn't that advanced. He has, however, said its more than 50/50 and when someone said it wasn't happening he said "not at all, don't be so negative". So it's fair to say he thinks it'll go through. He also said to expect a resolution in one to two weeks. So putting 2 and 2 together he thinks it'll go through and has given a timeframe, I don't see anything to be negative about there
