”If he gets sacked..” Fucking hell guys, no one is getting sacked for that. Why on earth would they?

I wonder where exactly you would need to work to get sacked for that? Biggest crime was forgetting that the saying is about Italy and not Germany.

Please post more tweets from moronic Newcastle fans. Like someone said, full RTG mode now.

Set to land at or near Hamburg. Scouting for HSV players, perhaps? Only one player worth scouting there.

It's almost not worth clinging to every single story that comes out. But how am I supposed to get infuriated over nothing then?

Not in December 2019. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/uk-saudi-arabia-arms-sales-yemen-war-weapons-treaty-oxfam-a9258166.html In June 2019, the UK government suspended arms to Saudi Arabia and its partners after the Court of Appeal found it had approved the export of weapons without assessing whether the Saudi-led coalition had broken international law.

Werent the UK and Saudi arms deals already ruled illegal and stopped? If so, that excuse is hardly relevant anymore.

There are very obvious hidden agendas though. This woman is no-more a freedom fighter than Richard Keys in this case - A high profile name who is being paid to defend Qatar's interests. Even leaving aside the fact that she's met "the love of her life" - a 60-year old guy with three previous marriages - less than 10 times. They've known each other for 5 months, the first 3 of which they only chatted. The moralists on here should rest easy though - her Qatari overlords dwarf Saudi Arabia in any way imaginable and I have little doubt that their influence will stop this takeover, so that we can continue with our honourable lives under Ashley's ownership. You sound like those Saudi troll accounts on Twitter Well done.

The number of countries who have murdered journalists is quite short - and the list of those who have dismembered journalists shorter still. Let's not p*ss on our legs and say it's raining. I’d argue that the 2007 video that Wikileaks put out of the Americans killing several journalists and civilians and laughing about it was equally as chilling. The USA and the UK for that matter have far more blood on their hands than Saudi do overall. So let’s not sit up on some moral high horse. I’m not saying we should condone any of it by the way, we shouldn’t, but if you’re going to criticise one nation right now you should also be able to turn that magnifying glass on others too. Are any of those countries buying the club or what has this got to do with anything? I doubt many would want Trump owning us.

Whilst I have thought there is limited value in the writing of letters to the PL, I do think there is some (limited) value in contacting MP's. NUFC supporters could contact their local MP and put to their MP their desire to see the takeover go through. They could also ask their MP to please make representations on their behalf (their constituents) to the PL and to the Government in support of the takeover. If the government was inclined to take any action it would be helpful to them to have some political coverage by saying they were representing voters who contacted them in support. Can you post your letter to your MP here first please? I think it would cheer everyone up a lot.

Sure it did.

I think it's weird that you dont see how that logic is just as flawed as the whole "well you use twitter/drive a car" argument.

You don't see the point at all, particularly as you're trying to frame people hurling abuse, spitting at, and literally starting on other supporters as 'people with different opinions' Shit, I didn't realise that they started on you! Yeah, that's fine then, they probably deserve financial ruin during a global pandemic. Hope their families end up on the streets too, the little cunts. Yes, laughing at cunts not getting their season ticket money back is the same as wishing them and their families complete financial ruin. In the same way being positive about the takeover is being desperate to be owned by baby bombers?

Nah, you're inventing now. The sequence was ManDoon said he loved the support the team fans not getting their refunds You all didn't like it I tried to provide some context for why some of us hate that segment of our support You said it was indecent Others who are desperate for the club to be owned by the Saudi state applauded I pointed out that they're not in a position to say what is and isn't decent Yeah mine was the short version. Like your quote editing. "The full quote changes nothing about it" "IT" being your whataboutism.

Dont worry he's loving this.

You're just turning to whataboutism like the people you argue about the takeover with "Not very nice to wish financial harm on other fans" "Well what do you know about nice, you want to be owned by murderers!!!" Idiotic argument.

Nah, shows a complete lack of decency in the current situation to say something like that. You know that most likely there are people here struggling financially who could use the money yet you decide to write that instead of just keeping your opinions to yourself. Err, it was ManDoon making the comment not me, I'm saying why some of us can't stand sections of our support. And yeah, keep talking about 'decency' in a thread where everyone's frothing at the gash for their football club to be owned by baby bombers. My heart bleeds. To be fair to Kasper, he hasn't been "one of those frothers" at all, quite the opposite. He just knows the comment was lifting. The relentless pearl clutching over our stoic and noble fans, man. You know fine well there are cunts in our support who were openly antagonistic towards Sack Pardew/Ashley Out and its members. If it's disrespectful to not give a shit about those same people losing out after you watched the way they went on, then it's disrespectful. Who cares. What have the cunts who abused Sack Pardew have to do with any of this? We're just talking about people who've renewed season tickets and might now be in financial difficulty because of covid and needing that money back. You seem to be talking about something completely different. Unless of course you're saying anyone who renewed is a cunt and deserve all kinds of shit. In which case you really need to go for that long walk.

Jesus wept. Go for a walk or something.

I was only quoting you because you were defending him. The "you" was still directed to ManDoon if that wasnt clear. I have no idea what the rest of your post has to do with the original comment or mine.

Sounds like everyone on this forum has been working on some multi-million deals except me

Who's the admin with the fat fingers?

TV rights bids don’t work like that though. Each broadcaster has to put a monetary value on it, they also have to put other aspects to it, about who it will be available too and on which platforms, also how they wish to broadcast it. Apparently Amazon got their bid approved because they included the live stats view into it. The bid deadline is the same for everyone and private. Saudi Arabia won’t be able to just put down £50m more than the other guy. How do Saudi Arabia make that bid? The current deal is at £500m, and ordinarily you would expect that to increase no more than 10%-20%, which at most puts it at £600m. Do they go all out and just double up to make sure their bid is far higher than Qatar? Would Qatar expect them to do that and just bid silly money as well? Yeah that's not how bidding for tv rights work. Most certainly not sort of a blind auction like you're describing. That would be idiotic for the seller as well.

Are you really saying you can knock a multi-million pound deal back, based on a reasonable opinion without evidence Well thats exactly what the rules say so yeah Think you need to do a bit more research on law: An opinion is a judgment based on facts, an honest attempt to draw a reasonable conclusion from factual evidence We are talking about the internal rules of a company explaining how they run their business. Their rules clearly give them enough room to decide what ever they want when it's in the grey area. I doubt there's a section in UK law about who gets to play in the Premierleague?
