The Fish 10857 Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Have to hope that his directions at Man United weren't particularly aligned with long term visions for footballing excellence. To be fair, he's had to scout for 6 different managers in 8 years. Six managers with pretty disparate styles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33219 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I really hope we've been on top of this shit from day one and are getting the best legal advice around.

It's not even like they are trying to hide the fact that they are shitting their pants. "It will be seen as" should really just be "it is" as it's painfully transparent but I will almost guarantee that PIF have one of (if not the best) legal teams in the world. They will do everything in their power to stop us taking their spot, but we will have the necessary paperwork and legal assurances on everything. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4386 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I still think we should do the "Sell Jeff Hendrick to a Saudi club for 200m" thing just for a laugh. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzler 9750 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Aye, I could go along with that. Even sell 4-5 of the players we don't want for that just to make it "seem" legit. But the actual deal is £200m for Hendrick and we'll throw these lot in for free. tbf I'd take a straight swap of Hendrick for Neves - but the Saudi club has to cover all of his wages. That would also cause uproar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35083 Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 To be honest it’s just something else that could be exploited to our advantage. All it would take is asking parties friendly to the Saudis to put in some outrageous sponsorship offers that a PIF-owned entity could then slightly improve on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 I am starting to wonder when they bite back will come, surely our lot won’t just sit idle and allow this cartel of clubs to be anti competitive. We’ve followed all the rules, even while others like Chelsea have took the fucking piss, all while new rules have been brought in that very clearly target NUFC. I think we’ve honestly been too good toeing the line so hopefully it’s for a purpose as it’s currently doing us no good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’ve honestly been too good toeing the line so hopefully it’s for a purpose as it’s currently doing us no good. I think they must have anticipated this, especially with what happened during the takeover. They've clearly decided to play the long term game, knowing full well that with the potential the club has it will eventually become a self sustained behemoth if the correct structure is put in place. What Howe's managed to do with the squad years ahead of anyone wildest expectations must have left the cartel absolutely seething. You can see it in the vile poison the likes of Klopp, Arteta and Ten Hag spit. They're absolutely scrambling to try and put the brakes on. Little good it will do. I think if something very clearly anti competitive happens we could see the club take legal action, but the focus will remain on laying the foundations for the inevitable success that is coming. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35083 Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Not that I think it’s going to happen but it would be funny as fuck if we just bought a few players from the Saudi league for next to nowt and gave them 6 month contracts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
