No reason to believe he does either. The truth is nobody knew anything until Nick Barnes broke it on the radio. Now a few people on here all of a sudden are saying things and people like you are hanging out their arse believing everything they say, it's sad and pathetic. I'm not quite sure who I pity more tbh

People are f***ing mental if they genuinally believe talks are happening today which are then being leaked every hour or so to associates, who then post it on a messageboard. Nobody has a f***ing clue and it's embarrasing that people are even posting shite to get people to think they know stuff thats going on.

My issue with what Magnus is saying is that it is very specific i.e. the share holdings after the takeover. Unless his source is directly involved in any takeover meetings I just can't see how they can be so specific. I think Magnus is posting in good faith, but without knowing his source I think he may just be being passed some internal speculation and thinking it is fact. I hope I am wrong.

Two excellent posts. I don't think people understand how this stuff works on any level and it makes it ripe for exaggeration. Almost every rumour we hear is actually just a chinese whispers version of something posted on here as guesswork and/or complete shots in the dark.

By the time it comes back around, it's 'someone with no reason to lie has told me it's Zuckerberg and he's bringing the Winklevoss twins along with him'. The reality is the person feeding that info has heard it from someone paraphrasing shite off here, twitter, 606 or wherever.

Not saying nobody ever has info, but having been there, it's either clear when you're in that position and you know the person is first hand involved with the deal, or it's usually just other fan theories being spat back out of a washing machine. I'm sceptical of any rumour that is the latter.

Deleted his story now - also made his profile public again. He's been fairly active for a person who would've had been in the air if he had been leaving Newcastle.

Don't want to come across rude here, but are you sure you got blocked or are you just confusing it because he briefly made his profile private?

He must have bought Wi-Fi on the plane. Never been tempted by it me like, the key is to download some podcasts/films before yer board.

Who is Magnus and what does he know? Apologies but I simply can’t and don’t want to keep up with every post on this thread like I did with the last takeover thread.
