I reckon we'll find out this morning that Keys' mystery Other Bidder is Donald Trump

Nah not yet, the ghost of Princess Diana has wrote a letter to the Premier League now.

I don't think it's Newcastle, like. This would have happened to anybody that was going to be bought out in this manner. Norwich would have got exactly the same grief, so would Sunderland, so would Liverpool, so would PSG. We just notice it more because.. well, because we're Newcastle fans at the centre of it I'm pretty sure that a lot of us would be dishing out the same sort of "ah, but you've got it at the price of your very souls" vitriol if it was another club that was getting bought. Ultimately I agree that a good proportion of it is motivated by jealousy at what might be rather than genuine political interest and concern, though.

I'm not sure this forum will make it to the end of April tbh, needs to be done quicker

How is there supposed to be another bid on the table when it appears to be widely accepted that a multimillion pound deposit has already been agreed and paid like?

I'm not that arsed about football fwiends like, have to be honest. Being everybody's second favourite set of third rate underachievers has not scratched any itches for me.

I would be surprised if the fit and proper test included a section on What Other Folk Reckon, mind

His ghastly little homily at the end is a bit misjudged but I don't think I'd have an issue with the rest if it was a different club like. It lacks his usual subtlety but I wouldn't have expected anything other from the Guardian to be fair

I believe it to be true (although I have no corroborative evidence and am basing my statement 100% on what I want to be true)

Aye

fair point like I'm all aboard the believe bus now

just read that. That's me convinced

Cannot help but agree with this like I don't think anyone will be relegated this year, least of all us, but I do wish that a ceremonial first move would be to thank him for his efforts and peddle him

That's some post Yorkie largely chimes with my own point of view on this

Only a reassuring sense of confidence that it's done

He went to The People as I recall, a paper richly deserving of his particular talents
