Eesh...this is painful this, like.
Even more so the guardian have another new exclusive that WTO link piracy to Saudi.
Does Keys work for these lot??
well thats the 26th over and done with
disapoimted like
totally depressed
One thing that's absolutely clear in my mind is that if it wasn't us, it would have been done by now.
And another thing is clear....but, then, it's always been the case with us....absolutely nothing is ever fucking straightforward when Newcastle United are involved.

Thinking about this a bit more, talking to mates and stuff, and I guess one of my main worries is that there seem to be two sources of leaks out of the three interested parties, namely the seller, the buyers and the people overseeing it.. Funnily enough, for once, I don't think fatso and his cronies are one of the sources, which leaves the Saudis/Reubens/Staveley and the Premier League.
All of the leaks from the buying side have, so far, proved to be either wide of the mark or just wrong-whether we like it or not Aye, it may indeed turn out that it's gone through but, as it stands, it either hasn't or for some reason it has but we haven't been told. All the 'it's been done/given the green light' etc was accompanied by statements such as 'could be done in the next24/48 hours' or 'an announcement is imminent' and NONE of that has come to pass.
The other source of the leaks i.e. the Premier Leagues has, so far, proved to be far more accurate. These leaks have suggested that there are problems with the bid and there undoubtedly are, otherwise it would have gone through by now. My reasoning is this-either the leaks from the buying side are wrong-so it hasn't been done yet (so therefore there is a problem)...or they are correct and we are long past the time when they said it would be announced (and therefore there is a problem).
Does that make sense? Ah, bollocks....maybe the beer is clouding my thinkingbut, to my mind, the fact that it has taken so long suggests that, even taking into account Covid, project restart, etc, something major either has held it up or still is holding it up.
Right. Whine over.
