.....I did say that PIF are interested even if we go down. If they weren't, the clubs legal action would be pointless. We have new owners in waiting irrespective of our status at the end of this season.
Although I'm Sceptical it would also explain why Mike Ashley didn't even take a risk on some loan players to keep us up.
He has washed his hands of the club. As far as he is concerned there is an agreement in place and it is someone else's problem.
In addition. If they had indeed moved on they “would have moved on and bought someone else overseas”. Relegation is a good thing (for a takeover) as it’s an opportunity to clear out the dead wood and plan realistically and sustainably. If we survive the drop. All they would have to do is move faster, spend more money to avoid the drop again next season. Being relegated gives them to do it progressively over two seasons. With a manager who wants a long term “ahem Rafa” project!
PIF are after a project. A bit like a certain manager who has turned down all offers to date and wants to finish a project.
Honestly, I couldn't give a **** what division we're in if it meant rid of those cancerous ****s. If we also get decent investment and Rafa overseeing it, then cocksout.
Wouldn't it be fitting if both us and the Mackems meet next season in the Champiinship under new owners?
