Exactly! Get the saudis in. They invest in just about every other big company in the world and no cunt bats an eyelid. Are they the richest owners out there? Yes! Right, that's who I want! Nobody else but them.

This is where I'm at too. If it doesn't go our way, I cannot continue supporting the club due to the fact we have been totally robbed of a massive opportunity for the club and the area because of corruption. There would be no point at all in football to me anymore if you're blocked from competing. This is NUFC so this is exactly what I think will happen too.

My thoughts too. Obviously I've not been since last January and I had cancelled my season ticket 10 year deal at the start of the 19/20 season after Rafa left. But I will be offered my seat again in the coming days/weeks and having planned to not go back until Ashley had gone, if this takeover does happen in the next couple of months and I've just gave up my seat, I'll be gutted. So my plan is to start paying for it monthly, not attend the games to watch bruceball, then if it does go through, great. If it doesn't I'll just cancel it and I'll have lost a few months worth of payments.

More of a whoppa I reckon.

Thank god

It does if you remember the PL are there to protect the "big 6". That is basically all they're there for. Makes perfect sense.

But they put 2 people forward didn't they? Bander Mogren and Yasir al Rumayyan.

I don't think she said that did she? She was asked "the Premier league didn't think the right information was forthcoming on who would actually own the club" She then said "oh no, that's not the case at all". Basically she was just disagreeing that they didn't recieve that right information. Unless I missed a bit?

It's because they're massive. Everyone's cup final.

Exactly this^

People actually taking that seriously. Wtf man!

I just don't fucking understand any of it

I thought the judge was deciding on whether to have a public hearing or a private hearing? Now we find out the PL still haven't even filed their evidence to have it thrown out. Ffs

The owners who object to the deal are concerned that the involvement of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) at St James’ Park will mean a cash injection into the club that will mirror Sheikh Mansour’s spending at Manchester City or Roman Abramovich’s at Chelsea. So it's OK for them to spend what they like but nobody else can.

I think 90% of his tweets don't make sense. I used to have to re-read his tweets all the time and still have no idea what it was he was getting at. Normally sticking up for the Premier league.

So if you're saying no, then it's probably yes. Cheers Luke.

Could this not be to indirectly put pressure on the judge in the CAT case to not agree to the PL''s request to have the CAT case heard privately?

Id imagine if the takeover does go through and the PL are shown to have not acted correctly, heads may roll and the consortium would be working with completely different people to the twats who've been in charge the last 18 months

Never seen that coming. Corrupt bastards.

Then you read that last screenshot about us. "They're always piggybacking on success"

He obviously hasn't wound you up at all has he? Calm down!

Hahaha

I do agree it's an area that we've already tried but if it's not doing any harm I can't see a problem with it.

Your typical NUFC fan. Do absolutely nothing, but critisise those that do try something. It's part of the reason we're still stuck with Ashley. We've got a fanbase full of them unfortunately.
