  1. As demonstrated by City’s investment this is more than about football. This is an absolute no brainer for the govt, a foreign investor ready to plough millions into a northern city so they don’t have to. But still they stand idle and say they can’t get involved.
  2. They’re also behind the largest arena being built in the country next to Etihad. Also to think PIF make these guys look like paupers. https://www.si.com/soccer/manchestercity/news/man-city-owners-invest-in-new-stadium-development-on-etihad-stadium-site https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/name-east-manchesters-new-350-19001136
  3. She came across very well. I’m hoping the Reubens are next to go on the offensive later in the week.
  4. It’s tantalisingly close just to think the whole city could benefit from this kind of investment. I’d like to think there is some real renewed pressure being applied by govt behind the scenes. The short sightedness and utter disregard the PL has shown for the future of the club is criminal. How two individuals like Masters and Hoffman can be unaccountable beyond a private arbitration is scandalous. A football club like ours has a massive impact on the local economy which should go way beyond these 2 individuals. It’s inconceivable a national institution should be held hostage by a corrupt organisation who currently appear unaccountable to anyone.
  5. Calculated and on the PL’s main broadcasting partner. This will be going down like a lead balloon at PL headquarters.
  6. Mark these words by hook or crook they will own this football club. ‘Amanda Staveley says she will not give up on her bid to buy Newcastle United from Mike Ashley. The Ripon financier has given a new interview to Sky Sports and insists that her company PCP Capital partners, the Reuben brothers and Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund are determined to see it through’.
  7. Aye, luckily he’s irrelevant in the grand scheme though.
  8. Turning the screw nothing not to like about this move.
  9. There we go a group willing to organise something. Can’t do any harm and would reinforce to the consortium just how much we are behind them.
  10. https://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/newcastle-united-owner-mike-ashley-feels-he-has-takeover-winning-hand-3295491 ‘The push for a public arbitration is not said to come from a position of fearing the club will lose – this approach has been painted as desperation in some quarters – more from mistrust, which is something which has coloured the relationship between United and the top flight since indications the deal would be passed in May 2020, then wasn’t. Ashley is said to have taken a more ‘hands on’ approach to the deal in recent weeks, which flies in the face of his general strategy when it comes to footballing matters at Newcastle United with the club again sleepwalking through a very quiet summer in the transfer market’.
  11. I think the 2 posters will realise that post was in jest. Take your own advice and have a beer ?
  12. It only needs a hit squad of 20 or so in parliament square to hit the headlines. I propose Fanny and Joey to fire the rockets. They’d look after each other inside and with no access to devices during their stretch it’s clearly a win win all round.
  13. The militant approach certainly seems to grab the headlines as per ESL. I remember the old sack the board days when the city centre used to be ransacked after the match. Clearly I’m not condoning such behaviour, but a few powerful fireworks launched at Laura Kuensberg during the BBC news might get us some headlines.
  14. He was making reference to the fan base in general. Don’t take it personally ?
  15. Well fucking said where in the end game, one more push at the behest of the buyers. Surely that’s the least we should be doing. Staveley isn’t a supporter and she’s worked 3 years to make this happen. The mancs and scousers would be having a pyro riot on parliament square if this was happening to them. Get the bus laid on Jinky, Manorpark you can drive.
  16. Also a bit embarrassing how you went to the effort to edit your own spelling correction.
  17. You’d know all about embarrassing posts having just caught up on your latest drivel.
