The ever accomodating George Caulkin has once again settled some fan nerves by reassuring them on Twitter. George was asked if there was anything other than failing the owners’ and directors’ tests that could derail this takeover.
George’s response is very reassuring as he seems very confident this deal will be announced soon. However, he does provide one unlikely scenario that could, in the very least, cause a delay to the announcement.
Once the PL give approval which they will, very soon, the only thing that could stop it would be the money not appearing in Ashley’s bank. That’s what I’m told. The money transfer is likely to take a few days, because that’s how it works.

The NUFC fans on Twitter seem delighted with Caulkin’s response as they do what Newcastle fans do – give everyone a good laugh.

Potentially slightly different with a £300m transaction?

Comment #2rob
i think the financial penalties and ensuing court cases would be very damaging to ashley if he pulled out now.
I don’t want to skip your posts but when we see it’s you or toon 22, you just know it’s going to be negative.and who needs it.

Comment #3Fast bank transfers can happen almost instantaneously or by the next working day.
If it’s a cash only deal then there might be a short delay while they sort out enough suitcases and maybe it has to be paid in dollars to Ashlely’s home in Miami so they could be just checking that exchange rates are favourable.
Why not photos of Ashley from anyone either over here or over there. Why not ?
Press not doing their jobs, surely not.
He’s more elusive than Kim Young One.
Has Ashley got his own train set ?
When he gets the dollar who will be buy next . Top Shops and Animal surf brand mist be on his horizons.
