    Because he wants the PIF. But seriously no idea mate.

    Presume it's another they are time wasters and it's back to normal business

    “Dear fans, I want to sell, PL won’t let me, there’s only one credible bid, hope they sort their differences out to give the club what it needs and deserves.”

    Then more fan antagonism towards both PL and NUST, no transfers and another season of Dwight ****ing Gayle and pals.

    I think it's going to end any takeover hope personally...

    It's the usual process... Once he does his interview you know it's officially off... In all honesty I think that's for the best... The hope needs ending

    Funny thing is, Ashley comes out of this looking like the one wronged. Agreed to sell and the PL wouldn't let him.

    People are adamant it's purely to dismiss these two non existent bidders and nothing else

    It'll add pressure you the PL approving the PIF takeover

    I expect it'll be similar to his last interview.

    I'm staying forever

    No he's going to say those two bidders are tyre kickers.

    PL I only have one buyer for the club. I want my money. Stop piffing about.

    for once he’s being honest. It may clear the deck for PIF 2 also.

    agree.
    It’s to focus the anger in the right place and put pressure on the PL. masters is probably saying ‘mike just accept one of the other bids’ and doing this closes that potential conversation.

    could be a good thing as he was quite connected to the deal and Staveley’s camp. If they were going to choose a Journo to write the inside story of the revisited acquisition it would be him.

    or.. there’s no news to report and he’s on his hols.

    Apparently the PIF have changed their investment strategy recently:

    https://www.themag.co.uk/2020/08/ne...they-pulled-out-of-newcastle-united-takeover/

    They seem to be less interested in entertainment type investments and may have already moved on. There are no other legitimate bids as Ashley is asking for too much. Did he really raise the asking price at the end?
