    Proof of funds

    This has to go to the Premier League hierarchy for scrutiny even if Ashley has agreed a fee.

    This could take a little time,I'm not panicking yet.

    Failing to have a spare 2 billion in his back pocket to buy liverpool, doesn't mean he will struggle to buy us.

    According to information given to a Chron reporter he has similar personal wealth to the co owner of Sheffield United which is £18 billion.

    £350 million is easily affordable to him if that is the case.

    Really!!!You would believe anything that he said.Like before Christmas when he said we were nearly sold,when he said Rafa could have every penny the club generates.I could go on.
    My take is this,this fella is genuine,he thinks he has a deal in place.All this so called doubt is the fact a couple of other interested parties are sniffing about and they have been caught cold as this group has stole a march on them.
    The parasite then throws something out there to them that there is still a chance they could come in with a deal.Therefore a bidding war starts and he get a few extra million.

    TBF it was reported that the Al Zayed group approached the Journal with the statement (and thus providing more communication about what’s going on at NUFC than Ashley has in 12 years, despite owning nothing at the club yet!)

    And that's my point.They think it's a done deal and it's the parasites people throwing doubt around to start some sort of bidding war.

    Could be. Just as the Mexican interest could've flushed out this one.

    Paul Kitson now claiming his 'take over is a done deal' statement, several months ago, was about this Zayed group.

    But he would, wouldn't he.

    Other than that tweet to the ronnie, there has been nothing else. Where are these people getting their information from? Certainly not NUFC, because Jabba doesn't tell anyone anything (except lies)!

    Until it's proven/happens, I think I'll just get on as usual and hope Rafa signs a new deal!
