Ketsbaia Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'm not falling for this. Not yet.

Guest gggg Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I'm not sure ArabianBusiness.com is any more reliable than The Sun/Mirror considering it includes disgraced journalists from the same papers like Anil Bhoyrul and Piers Morgan. They made up shitloads of stuff about last years takeover and Man City's takeover iirc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Hosain Kaebi please. Love him on FM08, free transfer that becomes a sold right-sided PL player after a few seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mani Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 So another day and another corking leg-puller from The Sun. This time Fleet Street's finest have us in talks with Sirious Mahjoob, a man who when Googled seemingly doesn't exist. Probably because he doesn't. It just seems another chance for those 'crazy guys', probably Spurs fans, to have a laugh again at us poor, gullible Geordies. As the story goes though, the boy that cries 'wolf', or Keegan in our case, just isn't believed. http://www.newcastle.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=163636 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 The site is claiming quotes from an interview with another media agency though. If it's completely untrue they've got some balls of steel like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDiablo Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Really don't want Keegan back though. It would be hell, he'd be under the microscope and the media would be blowing every little incident out of proportion saying he's off imminently. Good manager but just no thanks.

Teasy Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I emailed ArabianBusiness.com about not being able to find info on this bloke and asking for details of where his information came from. Not much back but I'll post it anyway: We had the same problems in English but our Arabic staff tracked down the lead on a Persian news website. Unfortunately no further details about the guy himself but we are working on it. The news agency that the initial Persian copy came from is a bonafide source.

It would be hell, he'd be under the microscope and the media would be blowing every little incident out of proportion saying he's off imminently. Good manager but just no thanks. Agree, he'd be far from my first choice. And if Handjobs got an agenda re: bringing in his own players and staff, we'd be in the exact same pickle all over again. What's encouraging is that the guy seems to have some sort of passion for football. I just pray to Allah he's got a bit more footballing acumen that the current bunch of tards; and appoints a footballing director/advisor/chairman typething.

Yorkie Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Would a single Iranian player manage to get a work permit? Why wouldn't they... just out of interest? (Sure there's a valid reason, just not that clued up on it). There's been plenty of players from that quarter over in this league. Think Teymourian's the latest Iranian import?

Teasy Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 what aload of old fooking bollox, every fooking site is rehashing the same story that came from the Sun. Lazy fooking journos! bullsh1t! How is that arabian site rehashing the SUN? same fooking story mate, written differently,. to avoid plagiarism ofcourse, the Sun mentions an arab in Dubai, that fooking iranian website mentions some guy based in UAE which is where Dubai is in. same fooking sh1t. Are you that stupid? Your talking utter bollocks , where are the quotes in the sun? They mention the same name, that's the only similarity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Everyone seems to be focussing on the Iranian thing, but the article claims he's based in the UAE. There's every chance that he's just piped up with these bits about Iranian footballers etc because the comments were to an Iranian news agency. This is if it's not all bollocks of course.

Unfortunately no further details about the guy himself but we are working on it. The news agency that the initial Persian copy came from is a bonafide source. I've just had a look at the news agency. They look like a proper, controlled Iranian news source. Could see the plausibility in no-one except a fluent Arabic (Persian speaking) person being able to read it. A few select articles are translated over to the English version, hopefully they will do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
