Here are your Newcastle United evening headlines on Monday, 26 July.
Did big six "cartel" hatch scheme to halt NUFC takeover, in the same way they contrived ESL plan earlier this year?
With the club's arbitration case now parked until "early 2022", all eyes now turn to the Competition Appeal Tribunal where public disclosure is anticipated by Ashley who is hoping that claim gets the go-ahead in August.
Those details would leave PM Boris Johnson facing fresh questions on the conduct of the Premier League's big guns.
The "cartel" (PM Johnson's own words), got together to discuss a sneaky scheme to damage the competition levels in the Premier League earlier in the year, so who is to say they didn't make moves, as Staveley suggested, to block Newcastle's takeover?
Superstar lawyer Daniel Jowell to spearhead Newcastle United's anti-competition claim against the Premier League
Legal 500 described him as: "Up there with the best" in 2020, while they said this year: "Exceptionally intellectually able and great at distilling complex arguments into the essential points."
It was the same publication who'd said he was a "A superstar in the making," five years earlier.
Ashley will hope that Daniel Jowell could be his most important signing yet at St James' Park.

He has managed just seven starts after the move cost Newcastle £11.5million.
