Could it go either way ? Yes.
Are we desperate for it ? Absolutely.
Are you desperate for it to fail ? Of course.

As has been proven for weeks now, we’ll look for any positive noises as we are desperate for it to go through. Likewise you will look for anything that counters that as you’re desperate for it to fall through. And do you know what, that is absolutely fine and expected from both sets of fans.

Me personally, I can honestly say I don’t really care. I don’t think it is going to be the milk and honey you are all salivating over. The “I” in PIF gives you an insight into their intentions, and after watching Staveley perform at her hearing she ‘ain’t all that

Why do you keep mentioning the SNP?

I think someone who is the chair of a comittee for international trade would hold some influence.

Being under Sturgeon has what to do with it exactly?

He’s not even a member of govt man, nor the opposition for that matter. Im literally astounded that you think his voice would be listened to from a govt desperate for major global investment.

I think you are banging the drum on government intervention a tad too much tbh, this seems to be your ace card that you are banking on

If this was us I’d be pretty apoplectic about the hypocrisy of it all like. What can the government say? It’s ok for us to sell you billions of dollars worth of arms etc but you can’t own one of our football clubs? It probably makes me some sort of moral free shyster but if they were buying us I wouldn’t give 2 fucks about their human rights record. They are one of plenty of despot regimes around the world that occupy my thoughts around about zero % of the time. I don’t give 2 fucks that my iPhone was knocked out in China for example who are the poster boys of human rights issues. It looks canny minty nonetheless. If any of these cowboys want to spunk billions on safc my arms are open in a welcoming embrace 😂

The final decision may 100% be up to the PL. Who knows ? Maybe they’ll do exactly what they think is right and bollocks to any outside influence.
May point though is that it would be incredibly naive to think the govt aren’t leaning on them to give the green light. You’ve only got to read the press to see it’s already happening.

The irony for me is that I hate the Tory govt yet I’m glad they’re looking to get it through.

Seems like stavely's having a bad day;
Amanda Staveley breaks down in tears as Barclays lawyer launches 29 minute rebuttal of her case, demolishing almost all of her evidence. Staveley’s lawyer says Mr Onions finish was “extraordinary and bizarre.”

The partner in crime being video linked in from Puerto Rico just sounds dodgy in itself haha.

I have a vision of him being mega tanned and giving his video evidence in a Hawaiian shirt sipping a cocktail. With a massive tash as well 😂

Can’t believe I’ve just read a tweet saying it’s disgusting how the Barrister for Barclays is treating her. That’s his job 🤣🤣🤣

Shes after 1.8bn or something and it his job to make her trip up.

She must have obviously been in wrong and he's made her admit it by pressuring her.
Canny ironic that someone called Onions is making people cry mind :lol:
