    My take on the takeover

    There’s no fu(king way they’re are going to allow a nations all ruling, murderous ,oppressive dictator to buy a premier league club. It’s not going to happen.

    If Ashley passed all of the criteria then anyone will.

    It will pass only if they bid for one of the leagues darlings.

    No, they absolutely wouldn't but that's the point...PIF are stating that they're separate whereas the PL are saying the distinction isn't clear enough.

    If VAR can be used to give penalties, why can't it be used to give yellows for diving, cheating bastards like Rashford, who's just done a Tom Daley in the Burnley box?

    Football teams have funny ethics, like...encourage your players to cheat and con the ref to win free kicks/pens or get opponents into trouble as much as you like, but, say, be late for training and you get fined and dropped.

    Maxi went down like he was poleaxed yesterday & within seconds he was miraculously cured.Kidology is regrettably part of the game.Give me the Norman Hunter/Tommy Smith/David Batty approach any day.

    If any player other than Goalkeepers dive on the pitch, send them off and 10 game ban.

    If it doesn't happen, it will be for what they (or he) may turn NUFC into rather than Saudi Politics.
