The club shop in the Metrocentre has a small amount of NUFC Gazelles in.

Nothing needed to do to keep her straight. She was answering in a way to tell the Lords ‘Yeah, I hear you, but you’re going too far, and this isn’t what the government wants’.
-
Lots of twisting of what she said. She actually said that there wouldn’t be any unnecessary revaluation of existing owners, and heavily indicated that everything would be more focussed on new owners. She also said that the government are not looking to outright ban anyone from owning club (I.E. state ownership) and there is no indication that the regulator would deviate from both the Premier Leagues, or EFL’s directors and owners test. She basically said that the government is open for business, in fact they even discussed the possibility of other states and Middle Eastern states buying clubs in the future, with name checks for Qatar, and Kuwait.

How’s that not a penalty? Oh yeah, Liverpool shirt.
-
Get in! Up against it in the cup now though.
-
Arsenal are level, so if we do hold on, it looks like we’ll be up against it in the semi-final.
-
Aye, on TV you can tell the crowd has been turned down, even the speakers sound silent.
-
6 minutes? Fuck off man.
-
Get in!
-
If anything, that’s a penalty to us.
-
Surely a booking that?
-
Howay!

I thought Joelinton was banned.

For extra context. In the proposed bill that would form the regulation that the football regulator would have to adhere too/police, a Lord who has previously claimed to be a Liverpool (but during the discussion of this bill claimed to be a Brighton fan) proposed an amendment that would mean that no club that is owned by a foreign state, including public investment funds would be granted a licence to play football within the top 5 leagues of English football. The proposed amendment also forbid any government employee from being an owner or director (including our own government, which would have affected Karen Brady as well). The government minister who is advising the House of Lords on the bill asked them to withdraw the proposed amendment, as they don’t want to exclude people unfairly from owning or being a part of football clubs. It also had a number of reservations being asked about it by a number of Lords. When a government minister asks for it to be withdrawn, it pretty much means that the government won’t adopt it further down the line, if the Lord who proposed it still insists on it. As it happens the Lord who proposed it withdrew it. An objection to it by any other Lord would have seen it not moved (also rejected) as well.

It means it was rejected.

Amendment withdrawn.

House of Lords is now discussing the amendment in the football governance bill that would effect us. https://parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/73011c64-91aa-47aa-98ab-0c8378d3e047

Why the fuck do all our fans seem to still have Twitter?

Lloyds bank is taking the ground floor unit, which is going to free up their building on Grey Street to The Ivy. Some section of it is becoming another location from the people who have Lane7. The very top unit is set to become a restaurant.

Without joking, if the figure is 300, she’s housed 1% of them. She used to adopt children, but is retired now, so someone she knows got her into hosting international students, in particular Saudi’s. She’s been invited over to Saudi, one of them in particular appears to be fairly wealthy.

Also in the last day, they have had to defend their racism. We don't owe anyone any apology for our reporting on infections people have derived after using certain barber shops, and to accuse these people of simply making it up when they or their children have experienced some of the horrific things shown in those photos is very, very bad faith. This isn't about race. Everyone is entitled to have a trade and earn a living, but the issues reported to be caused by these institutions are not only widely and meticulously documented nationwide, but are supported by health professionals and reported in most news sources. As we have stated multiple times clearly there is a demand for such services, and there is nothing wrong with that, they're popular for a reason. All that is being asked is that care and consideration is taken. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/35kT8VSUaxR7JGkR/?mibextid=wwXIfr Just another Facebook group trying to portray themselves as news.

My mother in law has actually been housing some in her house.

There is zero chance of them having a hub out of Newcastle. A route maybe, but again, the demand wouldn’t exactly be large. The tourist demand to Saudi isn’t very big, compared to Dubai. The North East doesn’t even have a Muslim population large enough to justify a pilgrim to Mecca route. Any route to Saudi would be relying in freight to/from the Middle East, and Asia, and onward travel.

Bale aside, all of them players outside of Shearer played the majority of their Premier League careers with clubs on the top of the pile. Shearer had 1/2 years at a good Blackburn team, and 2/3 years at a good NUFC. The rest of the time he was at mid table clubs, and lost 2 years of his career to injury.
