Rafa’s didn’t think he was worth £40m. How foolish that looks now

I was rewatching Breaking Bad and it struck me that it’s similar to Kojak, because there’s police in BB and Walter is Bald and Kojak is a bald policeman.

Baines has retired lads. Its off.

So this is what we’re reduced to, speculating about speculation. It’s gone on way too long, somebody should sue the PL for boring us to death.

If they are rejecting it on the basis of this they are cunts of the highest order. Not just because of the decision but if those were the reasons they could have rejected the takeover 15 weeks ago. Instead they have put the club in the worst possible limbo while most other clubs were able to “plan” for next season.

Of fucking course.

"Aye Maxi's a canny lad he's gannin nee were,except to the kebab shop to get me an extra large donna with chilli source.

“Yuh wah dissapointed to lose ASM, he was a canny, canny playah, wuhl have ta roll wah sleeves up again & dust wa selves down again, Tyne bridge, blaydon races, ye olde Gallowgate bogs, big Andy will do well on the wing”

“Mike your on mute” “top left mate....” ”click...” *Mike closes laptop*

Aye I think I said as much months ago

Agreed, I mean from what I have read about the actual O&D test I don’t see how MBS would fail that anyway (since it’s mostly about having money, not being involved in fraud in football, and never bankrupting a football club before). I’m honestly at the point where I just feel the PL don’t know what to do so are sitting on it and hoping the Saudis pull the plug on the bid.

Agreed, also iirc only one bid can undergo the O&D test at a time so it would make any ‘exclusivity’ fairly meaningless. I also don’t really understand the “not liking the structure”, as you say it’s been there since day 1 so if this is what they’ve been faffing on with for 4 months that’s a complete disgrace. I also don’t see what difference it makes to the PL who has final say if they’re all involved in the O&D test? Unless Edwards point is that they think the decisions would come from outside the Officers/Directors listed, such as MBS? In which case I think it’s pretty farcical to presume the leader of a country would be making day to day decisions for a relatively small asset in his portfolio, he’d leave that to the trusted members who have been appointed as officers and directors by his investment staff. I also don’t really see how that would actually hold up upon rejection? What would the Saudis even be able to do to answer what would essentially just be an incompetent wanker (Masters) simply not believing them?

That’s still quite a lot of morons, selfish bastards etc. The worst part for me is the complete lack of compromise from those in power and the twats still claiming no deal is what they voted for. It’s completely at odds with the democratic freedom they claim to be upholding. It’s not even the tyranny of the majority, as you allude to, as most people now realise what a stupid fucking idea it was and that they’ve been lied to.

It just goes to show how much of an unlikeable prick Edwards is when the only coat tails he can hang on to belong to Steve Bruce

Nee idea who he is but there’s no way he’s better informed than Edwards and Keys

https://chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2020/07/a-new-start-built-on-old-lies.html?m=1 The convolutions of this logic are dizzying. Brexit must happen so that the UK parliament can take back control from the EU of something over which it did in fact have control but had foregone the right to exercise, but since it had done so then now it has taken back control that foregone right should continue to be denied parliament because it would have no fewer rights than if Brexit hadn’t happened in the first place.

It's good to see Chopra says how it is and doesn't suck off the cunts.

Roy Keane is an absolute bell end, but he’s spot on here

Indeed, but Ashley isn’t any better tbh.

Aye but the ambition is Top 10.… on a regular basis. Fuck me, stop it Brucie, I can only get so hard.

I so hope it’s Ashley.

'A parcel of Dwight'.

The stage is set for a heroic comeback by the champions. They'll talk about it for years, when the legendary Dwight Gale put them behind early and against all odds they managed to overcome the tactical nous of Stephen Bruce to nick the three points in what will widely become known as "The Dwight Escape".

The BBC still believe Bruce gives them some idea of what formation to play . When all he does is put 11 names on a sheet and says go and play.

If Charnley is still employed, he'd probably sign this Messi by mistake.

I’m gonna watch the cricket and have the match on in the background. As long as we go out with a good attitude, dust wa selves down & roll wa sleeves up and break some fucking legs I’m not bothered what the score is.

This 'cup run', man. Took replays to get past third and fourth division clubs then just scraped past a vastly changed West Brom who were clearly looking at promotion only. First PL team we played we were swept away.

Hopefully they're in a generous mood or else this will be a complete and utter waste of time. Deapite this I will still be compelled through tradition and stupidity to watch at 1AM on a Monday morning, just so I can complain about it in real time.

Joelinton hat trick?

Did they get the foreign object out of your arse ok? In all seriousness hope all is well.

Mag in disguise marra

Talking crepe

But he was on fire for Wigan.

We bought West Brom’s old home shirt.

Sounds like he’d be perfect to write the latest classy chapter in that club’s history

Go back long enough and I bet you'll find "15 is barely underage marra"

The question is what is he going to do with the £531 left over?

Weyhuv got ohwa club back marra

Had to go to Germany too though
