So we've earlier turned against Amnesty, now it's come to smearing Khashoggi and his wife. And thats before they've even taken over. Wonder what is next? USA deserved 9/11? Bin Laden was an upstanding citizen and a courageous freedom fighter? All those Yemeni children deserved to die? People have gone completely mad, and it's as bizarre as it is tragic. Not much of what you have said is actually true. No-one has turned against amnesty, frustration has been voiced but I think I can say that there are no posters saying amnesty International is a bad organisation. Being pedantic, its not his wife and whilst she has legitimate grounds for her complaints they are focused solely on nufc, as if we were the only SA business interest.

Ah the language of diplomacy love it :lol:

Thats possibly the most inaccurate statement since 'the takeover's imminent'

Always reminded me of a massive foetus

Because if they are meeting government as well as the FA I suspect there can't be many major stumbling blocks and will be diplomatically asking what the hold up is given the concessions they have already made regarding piracy

Are we taking that as a bad sign that he has had to try and get involved to get this done ? Think it's the opposite to be honest Agreed

Nah, I take that as a way to push through the inertia. Cant have been refused i don't think

Was thinking exactly this It has nothing to do with it. Not as such but in this age of dead cat PR I imagine the optics of announcing anything alongside this would look pretty sledgehammer and obvious. It has nothing to do with the D&O test and that's what the Premier League have to go on. OK, I'll let the Daily Mail, know they can't run a headline like 'While trial of dismembered journalist starts the FA approve Saudi takeover - what cunts!!!!' They should be amenable given their history

Was thinking exactly this

Man City going in dry here oooof!!!!

Happy birthday to Gorilla, your present is currently with the FA

When you've got nothing to love all you have left is hate

*this weak *pointing at FA

Evian has been our best passage of possession

This is beyond shite

Why ? Because the draw is at half time, so unless they change the rules we won't be out till full time

Thats not even news, it literally says nothing

Think it pisses him off that Caulkin is popular, whereas he knows the majority can't stand him. But he might have a point

Why would we not extend the contract of decent performers ffs. Do you think the Saudis are going to come in and buy an entire squad in week 1?

My guess would be a platform yet to be invented that exists somewhere in whatever replaced cloud technology

♫ ♬ I feel it in my fingers... Fun fact (or not). The song that replaced that wet wet wet song after shitloads of weeks at number 1 was take that with back for good. The underlying chords are exactly the same. Not saying Barlow is a copying cunt but...... Whigfield's Saturday night replaced it in the charts, followed by "Sure" by Take That. Back for Good was a year later. So fun fact (or not) is actually "or not" so my timing was a bit out...….just like my guitar playing

My birthday is 2nd July, great date for an announcement It's also uninterestingly, the exact midpoint of the year
