    If he spends a little he's going to get it back and hid 300 million. It's reported they've agreed to pay 30 million more.

    That's now

    Keith downie sky sports news

    Edwards said last week it will be back in December so get ready...

    Downie said only last week it was all off as far as he knew, but only a week later he's suggesting it's potentially back on.. He's obviously heard something...

    Any legal challenge has to come through the seller or that's my understanding and as far as it's been reported the aim is for change of ownership not compensation.

    It's just a matter of time and hoping Bruce gets to 40 points....

    It's the latter im less certain about

    If it was to put the takeover in doubt Bruce would get the bullet surely

    Who knows, but if it goes to court I'll be surprised... I think the prem will hold out for as long as possible though and who knows what the clubs situation will be and if PIF would go ahead if we're in rejegstion trouble. I think it'll be next season providing we stay up.. Maybe Dec Jan if we're sitting 7 to 10 points of 17th

    Don't think there's any chance you'll finish below 2 of Burnley, West Brom, Fulham and Sheffield United.

    You'll be about 14th I reckon.

    I think we should be OK, but probably much like yourself it only takes a few weeks and you're on the **** and once you're in the bottom 3 it's so hard to get out of it..
