I had given up hope when first hearing of the takeover withdrawal. Now I'm thinking that we still have a chance and all of this is to induce immense pressure on the Prem to accept it. Looks like the two main issues why they haven't already are Quatar and other Prem clubs neither of which they could own up to. So what else can they do other then accept or lie through there teeth? I don't think they can go on anything to do with human rights as that's far bigger and just simply beyond there intellect. The Saudis regardless to whatever anyone thinks about them supposedly pulling out WILL NOT want to miss out on something when it's Quatar opposing. With the noise our fan base have made I think we have pushed them into a corner we're they simply have to speak pretty soon or accept the takeover. I have a strange feeling the takeover will be announced out of the blue with nobody expecting it.
