Sale is close - Barnsey

Odd that he claims to have just joined - not hard to Google and find out he's talking more shit:
Aye but he claims he's been made CEO today however there's nothing in companies House yet to confirm it
 
Would you give up your high paid, secure job if taken into a room and told you had to cease and desist or be escorted off the premises? That's all I'll say, but he chose the way that was hardest for him, but allowed him to continue to pursue the club and hold Donald to account. I have been given this story from 2 people close to him and me (small world) and in my view, yes, it makes him a better fan than me, because I wouldn't sacrifice so much personally, and I doubt most here would, let alone actually have.

All I was getting at was that people think he's just sniping from the sidelines, well he's to some degree in the trenches in the battle against Donald. More than most of us can say.
The only way that would happen is if he's been saying something libelous, it might explain why he's been nitpicking absolutely everything the club does.
 
How long till the likes of Donald and Sloanes come out and blame the fans that the takeover has collapsed again
 
Same old shite. You said it would be this date. Ah yeah, but a donkey walked past the stadium so it’s been delayed by two years.

I think it's a fair point about the date, but instead of just saying that he should come out and confirm whether he's heard anything since or whether he's still giving people hope based on what he heard weeks ago

On that podcast last week he said he still thought it was happening and had heard nothing about it falling through etc

It’s a cop out. But it keeps people listening to his radio show for a bit. Just generic garbage.

Barnes tweet on 25 July says “with a view to selling before the season starts. Sale could be much sooner.”

Season start was assumed to be 12 Sept at the time. TBF we need to give until 12 Sept before calling Barnes or his source as bullshitters. The “much sooner” prediction has been proved wrong.

Also note "with a view". That's very far from a set deadline. It's more, we'd like to get it done by the start of the season if we can. People need to get it into their heads - there are no fixed dates in takeover negotiations.

As GOM says, you can't really put much stock in the actual dates, even if he thought 12th September sort of time initially it could easily slip. I just wish he wasn't arguing semantics over the date, but was saying whether he'd actually heard anything concrete that it's still progressing (as opposed to simply not having heard its fallen through).

Fair point 👍
We all need to be patient on here.
