adios 717 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 No actually that's me. You are as positive as @trooper is negative. Surely the feedback has given you that impression already.

He's expecting the transfer not to happen, Benitez to walk, us to get docked points for tax evasion, a giant sinkhole to open and swallow the Gallowgate end, Shearer to be murdered by Gascoigne robbing us of two heroes, and Sunderland to be taken over by a free spending Carlos Slim.

Dr Gloom 21812 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 the deal is now unlikely to go through before feb (when the new TV deal is announced), they're still haggling over price and stavely is fucked off that ashley's people leaked the news of a bid being close - they see it as a desperate move to try to get more money out of her. the relegation clause is also causing consternation. stavely wants the money knocked off the asking price, which she would then repay to ashley if we stop up. ashley obviously wants it the other way around. he's also insisting on keeping the sports direct advertising all over the stadium after he sells up, for a period, where stavely quite rightly wants to attract new sponsors which will inject money into the club.

Is this from a different source which said it was definitely just a ploy by Staveley to buy Liverpool? or the one at the top of the page where you said it was really close and money would be released for the transfer window.

trooper 940 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Would a £100 million relegation clause be a fair estimation ?. Also Rafa said today he's met with Charnley but wont know the transfer budget until Xmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I browse #NUFC on occasion but rarely contribute. use twitter for information gathering, bit of chat with the twitterati and my legions of adoring fans from the podcast listenership. I just wondered because I accidentally wandered on there in the aftermath of the Leicester match and thought if anyone regularly perused this they'd think all Newcastle fans were screaming Armageddon all the time and it would taint their opinions of more rational fans. As much as I am occasionally flabberghasted by post-match reactions on here, this was like the army of the dead learned to type. People here 90% of the time are very sensible.

"The team is now just a point above the relegation zone and, according to those familiar with the discussions, PCP has estimated that Newcastle has a 65 per cent chance of relegation. Unless concessions are made soon, a deal may not be completed before the next transfer window closes in January, warned those familiar with the discussions, meaning that a new owner would need to wait until next season before investing in new players."

adios 717 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 65% seems fucking ludicrous anyway although if there's truth in the £15m figure and Ashley stays it's probably not far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
