There’s really little that they can do. I’m guessing that Staveley is encouraging it as she seems to be more upset than the Saudis and the Reuben Brothers but then to my knowledge she has now tried several times to be involved in the takeover of a club and this was probably her best bet.
It’s crazy that the Saudis made little effort to resolve it if that was the only reason. The most recent issue prior to the takeover collapsing was that the PL were supposedly concerned with a lack of transparency over who would be in charge. The PL certainly seemed to be stalling in the hope that it would all go away. If piracy was the only reason, I can’t understand why the PL didn’t highlight that as it was a strong case. Perhaps they were never convinced that piracy would be resolved even if the Saudis had given undertakings. Do you reckon that was likely the reason?
Weren’t they linked with Poch too?

Well if Wigan can be sold to someone nobody knows if even exists...
I was chatting to a mate who is a Sunderland fan and he is very suspicious of a takeover bid being played out in public like this. It’s like the latest Newcastle instalment with Chopra supposedly fronting a consortium; whilst admittedly there does seem to be something in it, why play it out in public?
