Are the PIF not bidding for thebTV rights over


Did Keys bump your car once in a supermarket and drive away? He has no influence on this, that is why its not been pushed through yet. :bandit:

Aye. The Saudis want the TV rights legally. That will kill off piracy concerns. The PL know the Saudi's can beat anything put forward by BEin. Keys knows he will lose his job.
 
I think it's failed.. it's to going to Simmer down just like BZG did.. It will take longer to simmer, but the same process is at play here..ie say nothing until it pretty much goes away and it's accepted... then Ashley does interview end of

bet he would be poached across. If they can buy the rights then brilliant. Stops the losses due to piracy. When is that deal up?

Or that it hasn't and we're quite happy for him to go as we'll be bringing in a higher calibre of player.

It always used to hurt when a talented local lad was sold on, as we always knew that if he fulfilled his potential we'd never see him again (Pedro being the exception) as we couldn't afford to buy them back.. IF the takeover went through I'd be really chuffed for him going to Italy. A local lad with a handful of games getting to play in a famous shirt while learning his trade. Then when he is at his peak we would finally be in a position to buy him back.

There's a very big IF in there though.
