The top sports guy at Dubai Media is saying it is done. Apparently he's the Arab Pete Graves / Keith Downie

Most of the “journalists” tweeting are nobodies... only that presenter is semi-credible.

I’m refreshing Twitter as much as the next person but so far we only have the UK reports to go by, which basically are just “definitely interested, price £350m”. So let’s see what happens...

Pete Graves confirms that the Arab Pete Graves is very reliable. This could actually be happening.

Basically nobody has a f***ing clue. I see one tweet saying it's done, another four saying it isn't, then someone from Abu Dhabi pops up saying it's all but confirmed.

If I had to take a punt, I would anticipate they've been in talks, the Sun have gotten wind of it and printed that story and exaggerated it in true Sun fashion, which has left every other journalist scrabbling around for information. Meanwhile, the Abu Dhabi press are probably just regurgitating the Sun's story, which then looks like it's nearly done.

It's probably still a while away from being done, the same as Staveley, the same as Kenyon. Just the automatic link between 'Abu Dhabi' and 'shitload of money' has everyone losing their heads.

So you’re saying I shouldn’t have got the tattoo saying “NUFC PREMIERSHIP CHAMPIONS 2019/20”?

Given Amanda Staveley’s involvement with the City takeover, I wonder if she’s involved somewhere here...

So much this. A lot of people on twitter getting excited have short memories.
