Crystal Palace said we were willing to pay £60m for MG. Not sure we were anywhere near that in reality. It’s been said numerous times before EH went as far as going on record that the numbers being mentioned weren’t close. So if we bid £40m+£5m for MG what is your thoughts on VH’s valuation?

But it's still absolutely perfect for football. If you want to see T-Swizzle then get yasel to London.

I agree with this. I think the Saudi league is long term more important for them but thr World Cup is massive and gigantic worldwide statement. I made the point that NUFC are not their main footballing priority and some others have disagreed. Bankrolling the CWC and some of our ‘rivals’ and spending big on castaways from our rivals - serves bigger priorities. Where we stand in their footballing priorities will dictate how much non-direct money and effort they will invest in us. Multi club, fucking around with assets, shmoozing UEFA etc. is a lot of effort.

Fender's SJP gigs are enjoyable because of the sense of occasion, pride in the local lad and the city centre location As a modern venue for large scale gigs, SJP isn't up to much. The lack of toilets for women is a disgrace, for starters If Taylor Swift played then the place would just be a massive lake of piss because 50,000 lasses trying to share approximately 10 toilet cubicles just doesn't work

Kuhn Army.

Cat A for me, marra

Good spot. International break after too so presume there won’t be a Monday game that weekend.

He was linked earlier in the season, I believe.

How come Sunderland aren't in Cat A

The Scotsman mentions that Newcastle (and other clubs) are interested in Celtic's winger Nicholas Kuhn. I don't know if his name has already been floated about in this thread. He's a very good player though.

True, but fortunately for them we'll be on our annual cup final trip to Wembley that weekend 😀

The new category ticketing system in play now for us. CAT A: Arsenal City Liverpool Chelsea Newcastle Spurs CAT B: Burnley Brighton Everton West Ham Bournemouth Fulham Palace Villa Leeds Brentford Forest CAT C: Wolves Sunderland Anything stand out to anyone? Hungry cunts.

They already got the World Cup. Why waste more money and effort? That was always their priority with regards to football. PIF isn’t the Royal family; it’s essentially a conglomerate of different organizations each needing to be successful in their own right while competing for funding from the same pot.

Palmer as a xenomorph as he looks like his breath would be honking.

You've guessed it, from those clues.

It's not niche, everybody loves Alien/Aliens. Nobody is Bishop as Bishop is a good guy (synthetic). Ash however, the club are full of Ash bots and Carter Burkes.

Forest (H) will be on Sunday 5th as they’re in the Conference League the Thursday before.

Hard power - I mean physical - buying influence. They become a major partner to UEFA and potentially the PL and the dynamics change. Champions League was sponsored by Gazprom for ages man. If a PIF company is in that position we’ll never get kicked out of the CL for non financial compliance if that’s a priority. Saudi leaned on Boris Johnson to get the sale done with a very fair concession. Saudi have clearly influenced FIFA. If they want to they can lean on UEFA too. UEFA are easy to lean on too, their biggest risk remains a mega club owned breakaway league. Old money clubs are the main agitators of that.

We need to stop buying players from the premier league as we end up with is completely protracted deals that don’t get over the line. It’s like a deliberate plan and all played out in a very public manner.

PSG were bought for about half of what Ashley had paid for NUFC four years earlier, and were a midtable club for most of their short history before takeover. They were never considered a big club in European terms, and never had OM or Lyon’s status in France. They were bought to buy Platini’s support for the 2022 WC bid.

Hard power is the military Maybe I missed it, but I don't remember Qatar bombing UEFA HQ.
