Tom 14011 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Aye I have absolutely zero power over the situation, I think the takeovers dead anyway & the people dragging it out are after YouTube views, like Wraith & the Dentist. Oh and don’t forget “ladies night” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isegrim 9798 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I only had a look at Stein’s profile and he actually does seem to be a rather competent business man. We’ll see how far those two can push the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35095 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 It would be worth it just for Luke Edwards blob strop tbh. But, knowing our luck, it’ll be approved only for the Saudis to have lost interest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But who knows? The inference seems to be the legal action is to get the takeover approved so it can go through. That’s only one possible outcome, even if the legal action does rule in favour of the club. There could be compensation, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know what Patterson is doung for his living but Stein has probably been involved in quite a few legal cases with his businesses. The QC they do have on their side doesn’t look like a British Lionel Hutz either. At least they seem to be confident of having a case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 See the usual suspects are wanking themselves daft over this. Never mind that the Saudis are massively involved in F1, golf, advertising on sky etc. I’m more than happy to miss out if this is the reason, but honestly it was never the PL’s concern, it’s delusional to suggest there’s no links to murders and other horrific things from any current PL owners. I don’t have much of a point tbh, I just hope the same journalists won’t be flocking to cover events like the Qatar World Cup and we really can push back against murderous regimes/people getting heavily involved in sports but sadly they will and nothing at all will change, we will still have articles wanking off about PSG etc, the same as they don’t give a fuck about Khashoggi’s death other than it now being a tool to block any takeover. Well now that’s over we are probably in a worse spot than pre-takeover talk, with an even more disinterested Ashley 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All worthwhile considering Qatar’s great footballing tradition, burgeoning population and global reach. Eh Sepp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
