  1. As Pete said on the Football Ramble recently (in making an admittedly anti-Saudi takeover point) "modern life makes hypocrites of us all". I just want to enjoy football again and see a Newcastle team actually try to compete. Does that mean I think SA are the best country in the world and whiter than white? Not at all. I'll continue to find certain actions they take absolutely deplorable. But I'm willing to be a hypocrite on this and want my team to do well, even if it means they're owned in part by a state with some pretty big skeletons in the closet. All I can really do to reconcile that is hope that the added exposure pulls SA closer towards "western values" (for whatever that is worth nowadays). I do worry that it might just allow them to sports-wash their image away with a few trophies for a resurgent Newcastle, but that's the point where I'm a hypocrite I suppose. Not really sure what point I'm trying to make here like Just sounding it out in my own head I guess
  2. I know its a bit of arse wiping but a simple form of words to cut and paste would simplify this greatly It auto fills the form for me, so all I had to do was confirm my address and then press send. Mind I'm not sure how useful sending a letter to a Cornish MP will be Likewise, sent to my North Devon MP, worth a go
  3. Joined today - I got 2 separate charges of £1 rather than a single £2 charge so might be yours is the same and will come out twice.
  4. Don't understand the Caulkin-bashing, he had a source right at the heart of the deal and reported what he was being told. Reading the interview with Staveley in the Athletic is painful, appreciate it's only 1 side of it but man she seems like she really gets it, what this club could be and what it needs to get here. Would love it if she came back in for us with another consortium (preferably a slightly less decapitation-y one).
  5. Ughhhh I can't even drink this away because it's on a fucking Thursday for fucks sake. The dream would be Amanda and the Reubens come back for us. No idea if that's affordable for them or not but just having owners that will invest and try to improve each year. That's all I want.
  6. Took me far too long to realise that's just us. Was thinking we'd had quite a few on that list like
  7. I wonder if all the pundits going on about how Bruce is gonna beat Rafa's point total will bring it up now that he's failed completely?
  8. Not that I really think we will, but am I right that 8th gets you into Europe if City are banned?
  9. We're so lucky to have a proper football man, good geordie boy SB in charge.
  10. What a mad bastard Liverpool fan so presumably just got bored of winning.
  11. My mate's just stuck £1 on for Carroll to score and us to win
