Second paragraph is amazing, reads like a villainous monologue Like Harvey Dent out of Batman

We won’t get even get the dignity of a public statement when it fails The Premier League won’t acknowledge it

They won’t, this rhetoric is just another example of being in a virtual bubble, the outspoken fans in here or on Twitter, don’t represent the vast majority of the fan base People underestimate how much sympathy Bruce has garnered, not to mention the ‘support the team, not the regime’ brigade Pretty much this

Same here I’ve reconciled myself to this takeover not happening, but Leeds becoming the dominant force we might have been, will be truly awful to witness on top of that

There's just no way this decision-making process would have been handled the way it has been from the Premier League, if this was Man United, Arsenal etc.

“I presume you haven’t seen contracts” “I’ve not seen the contracts either” :lol:

It's not a company from SA it's SA. The PL themselves described PIF as a company in SA like. whose chairman happens to be the crown prince of saudi arabia (and as far as I understand he's been making more and more decisions for the country the last few years) and its literally the public investment fund of saudi arabia how the hell can it not be considered an arm of the KSA goverment But what difference does it make if it's a company, the crown prince or the king himself! Just because bein is banned in SA, they can't own a PL club? Still a totaly different question. By blocking Bein, the value of the broadcasting rights just decreased considerably in the MENA region and they are fucking with a massive partner of the PL. Obviously the PL will take all that into consideration. Take this as me being ignorant, but is that relevant? Of course it is to the PL, but by their own OD test, is that relevant? I keep on saying this, all is well and our long dreamed of positive announcement is not (now) far away. C A L M . . .

And there it is Fucking hell this is unreal, another takeover attempt that will seemingly just fizzle out My only hope at this point is that we actually get a definitive answer from the Premier league rather than just being left in limbo

How can we be moving forward if the club is on less points than last season?

Why does the host or the other pundits not directly challenge these baseless claims by pulling up the relevant stats that disprove such idiocy It's not fucking hard to do the bare minimum of research, I mean they get paid a load of cash to simply regurgitate generalized soundbites that have little relevance to the specific team in question

4 wins in 19 games now

Yedlin's outstanding fro, the highlight

That Solly March is one of the worst players I've seen for some time

Brighton are so awful

Lazaro looks thrilled to be coming on for the last 5 minutes

Our game plan has been to stop them, clearly. You're giving us too much credit

Brighton are absolutely hopeless, I thought their manager played positive football?

Two shocking sides

Very poor that from ASM

Spot on mate! It's theese games the younger players should play. There's nothing to loose playing a couple of them. But it's typically Newcastle! It's too late to start playing the young lads when they are 22. Would've understand it if it was a game where we had to fight for survival, but this game... I should go for Watts instead of Krafth and Longstaff/Young instead of Bentaleb(who probably won't even be here next season). Bruce = Coward I've rationalised it from Bruce's perspective and I think he's just completely fixated on beating our points total from last season, so he's going to use whatever senior player in whatever position to get there I think ASM should have been rested tonight too

Definitely believe that theory now about Lazaro's loan deal having hefty appearance fees build into it

Bruce is honestly such a coward, playing Krafth instead of the academy lad Bentaleb instead of Matty

There were strong rumors of them going for Ajax's keeper (Onana) a few weeks back, but they were struggling to find a suitor for Kepa
