    Yes I’m the same. It’s the waiting that kills though. I don’t know whether to look forward to seeing some exciting players or the same ****. Total ends of the spectrum.

    I just don't see why it benefits any party involved if they announce it's failed for reasons x y or z .. just say nothing. This we the case with ALL previous failed takeover attempts.

    This one was closer or is but I see the sane game plan should it fail being adopted ..

    The only thing for me that makes me actually think it’s still on with PIF is the fact that they have not gone an bought another European club. Because they could!

    They will just go away and that would take time... might even come back and buy west ham in the future or another club Leeds Maybe if this fails

    Possibly. But if they can’t buy us then I think they would struggle to buy any other premier league team. I could however see them buying an Italian team.

    Maybe. But the Italian fa would welcome the financial input and wouldn’t care if there was the odd skeleton in the closet. Know what I’m saying!

    This one sets a precedent for future takeovers. God help others.

    Just seen that it’s Newcastle V City tomorrow in BBC.

    what a great time to announce the deal, an hour or so before KO.
    I will get some San Miguel in the fridge.

    Competency of the PL is one of the main issues.

    the arseholes that made the info they found on companies house are to blame... they not only tipped of all the people that wound do anything to stop such a deal going through , but also told them exactly where to go ie the premier league.. if those dickheads said nothing it would have we be through months ago .. just boom. done

    It was always going to be picked up as it’s public knowledge. It’s a shame but it raised hopes. The one thing that is bugging me is the total silence.

    nevertheless it was some divy on Twitter that couldn't resist ****ing it up. if people could learn to say nothing they don't have to in life. it's the same with fanny... say nowt to anyone until you've nailed her ... or you can get your bottom dollar someone will put a monkey wrench in your programme...

    Agreed. They do it everytime. It will have miffed the buyers too.
