Latest takeover statement

[toonsy]

I'm sure you've all read it elsewhere. Couple of things, although admittedly I've said it's a load of crap all along....

1 - If every stage is complete, why would it collapse? That's the caveat at the end of the statement.

2 - Why would they issue it through a journalist when others have been direct releases.

Sorry, I'm still not buying the take over idea.

I'm not sure what we can read into this...if it came straight from the group themselves that would be a different matter.

I don't think it changes anything.

possible credence in what sir John Hall said about them not having the cash - and someone else implying further that they arranged to borrow the money to buy the club, but the PL knocked them back as they didn't want another Glazier scenario - where the club is permanently in debt hahahah you could'nt make it up - just cos ashley isn't a bank and they were trying to find the funds in other ways.

but NO this takeover again stinks to high heaven and more than likely ashley is the sticking point because as usual he never had any intentions of selling - played the media game again to divert attention away from the managerial and transfer positions

Another view is,what if and it's a big IF,this takeover is true,its went to the Premier League and Ashley has his little clause of advertising and percentage of club shop sales in the deal and the Premier League have said or are saying no.
It's an avenue that would limit the growth of the club for the period they have agreed.

Something not right about this, it’s all a load of BS, maybe seeking publicity. I don’t believe any of this Bengazi shyte.

Interesting stuff; and also maybe odd that we have had no leak or info coming out of the FA. You would think that they would be a hint or two. I cannot imagine them being that secret.
