when the news broke 6/7 weeks ago, Mike Ashley was wanting to go public with it then.

Th Saudi's stopped the announcement as its their way, to let the deal be completed and monies transferred before they go public with any of their deals.

Last wed/thur, the reports came out that it had been passed the premier league tests (even sky were saying it at one point)

my hope is that it was true and they were just waiting for the funds to clear, which im led to believe take about 2 days, with the bank holiday, tomorrow could be the day


maybe im clutching at straws like
