  1. He can do better than Arsenal in their current state Such a ridiculous comment. He's an 18 year old kid that they've just given a chance in the team this season, and he's too good for them already huh?! Really irritating these type of comments. I agree. Problem is it doesn’t take long for the player (and agent) to start believing them too.
  2. As I remember it he built clout, a bit like the two lawyers, by claiming to understand middle-eastern culture and hearing things 'in the region'. It's no great surprise. Twitter is full of people wanting to feel important. I admire anyone who's avoided such bullshit. Wasn’t he involved in trying to get people to buy the club? Maybe at NUST level before he moved abroad.
  3. I’m sure Penn was ITK back in the day. Think it was just team news but definitely recall something.
  4. I'm pretty sure he is wrong. Judicial review is only available of decisions made by public bodies. It is well established in case law that sports governing bodies are not judicially reviewable. See R -v- Football Association Ltd, ex parte Football League Ltd [1992] 2 All 833 And: https://www.ashurst.com/en/news-and-insights/legal-updates/judicial-review/ "The following characteristics have been considered relevant to whether an act or function can be reviewed. The "but for" test: in other words, whether, but for the existence of a non-statutory body, the functions exercised by such body would inevitably be regulated by statute. Bodies which have been considered amenable to judicial review using this test include the Advertising Standards Authority2 and the Takeover Panel3. However, the Football Association's decisions escaped review as the court held that if the Football Association did not exist, the state would not have found it necessary to perform its functions4." I may be wrong - but there's lot of reading out there on this - or may be thinking of a different judicial mechanism. Don't know who is right but if you are Greg, then could the PL just turn round and go - takeover denied because......well we can't be arsed with the hassle? Or we don't like NUFC as we love Sunderland....... and PIF wouldn't be able to legally challenge. Seems ridiculous if true He's now clarified after we exchanged a few DMs on Twitter Just need you to clarify now who was right?
  5. Is anyone on here struggling to see this match? https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/free-now-tv-sky-sports-monthly-pass-3488250
  6. Exactly. Technology is not 100% perfect. You surely put in a fail safe check. Surely that’s VAR’s role but that for some reason wasn’t called upon.
  7. I know you all love this guy
  8. Wasn’t as obvious in real-time and I don’t think they even look out for that now officially.
  9. Might be worth someone more eloquent than myself to let .Com know their error. They’ll change it if pointed out it’s incorrect.
  10. (Tin hat on) To me they are both saying the same thing and what the BBC are reporting also...(?) Edwards says Saudi State which is incorrect. Got you So instead of the “government/state” its just claimed people “within” SA. No expert but that should seal the deal if nothing more to reveal... Like the people “within” the SA are the same people buying us but actually named.

  12. If that is the deleted BBC tweet then the wording is more worrying as very specific for it to be a simple mistake.
  13. Designated camera behind goals for celebrations apparently in the EPL.
  14. https://twitter.com/lm_0200/status/1272263153171279875?s=21
  15. My dad used to go on about that goal and in particular that team over both legs.
  16. Cramp from that manager (again?)
  17. I do worry how sport and particularly football is getting attached to politics etc. Especially on the pitch. It seemed at one point a week didn’t go by without a minutes silence or applause for something. Then a whistle blows and you are just meant to snap out of it. Dare I say (Tin hat on) one thing the Mackem’s (use to) do right iirc. One game at the end of the season to cover everything.
  18. The report is complete. So nothing to delay it. Still due on the 14th (I think). Unless it's appealed against by either or both sides Yes but it can’t be appealed until it’s unveiled... surely? Which is what I (thought I) was answering. No that's not the case both sides will have the report and be able to appeal before the report is published. The report will not be published if there is an appeal as it will then not become a legal or sanctioned report If that’s the case my apologies Makes no sense (to me) as WTO I would think would claim they have wrote an independent report. Release it. Open for discussion and therefore then open to any appeal although the fact it’s not a legal finding kind of makes the who appeal idea seem a waste of time other than personal pride.
