Various: N-O has lost the plot over potential end of Mike Ashley's tenure

[huss9]

Extracts from ‘The Magpie Prince: Why Does MbS Want to Buy Newcastle United?’ by Tom Pollitt, published on Inside Arabia;

 

Given driving-bans for entirely different reasons:

 

‘Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS) is the de facto ruler of a desert Kingdom where drinking alcohol is officially illegal and, until recently, half of the population were prohibited from driving simply for being women. It may seem surprising therefore that he has taken interest in the rainy British city of Newcastle, a place where it is unofficially illegal not to drink alcohol and where the locals (known as Geordies) are given driving-bans for entirely different reasons.’

 

Penchant for violence:

 

‘In fact, aside from a shared, well-documented penchant for violence, MbS has little in common with Newcastle folk. So, what could he possibly want with them?’

 

Cannot understand a word the locals are saying;

‘For a man notorious for his opposition to freedom of speech, it will be refreshing for him to get involved with a city where outsiders cannot understand a word the locals are saying.’

 

Often becoming violent in order to protect their treasure:

 

‘It is fitting that MbS wants to buy the Magpies, as the magpie is the animal whose lifestyle most resembles his own. The crafty black-and-white birds are known for collecting and hoarding shiny objects, often becoming violent in order to protect their treasure.’

 

Rendered the country scarcely better to live in than Newcastle:

 

‘Saudi Arabia is a country much maligned for its militarism, religious fundamentalism, and human rights abuses. To list just a few of the myriad atrocities, the kingdom routinely executes more people than any other country and is carrying out a harrowing air-war in Yemen that has driven hundreds of thousands into famine and rendered the country scarcely better to live in than Newcastle.’

 

Naturally, Newcastle fans have never heard of him:

 

‘Then there is the widely reported murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul in December 2018, an act for which MbS is widely held responsible. MbS’ brutal crackdown on domestic dissent has also been widely publicized, as have his (largely exaggerated) steps towards so-called “modernization.” Suffice it to say, the prince is a major player on the world stage and you would have to be living in a remote, tribal community not to be familiar with him. Naturally, Newcastle fans have never heard of him.’

 

The internet is full of bewildered members of Newcastle’s “toon army” of fans:

 

‘While MbS is a big fan of flogging, the modern football supporter is more into blogging and vlogging. The internet is full of bewildered members of Newcastle’s “toon army” of fans, barely containing their excitement, desperately trying to figure out who this bloke is and whether he really has £280 billion. Who said football can’t be educational?’

 

Like a Newcastle fan on a night out. “[MbS is] volatile and arrogant:

 

‘The way the CIA describes MbS makes him sound like a Newcastle fan on a night out. “[MbS is] volatile and arrogant,” an anonymous intelligence official told the Washington Post. “Someone who goes from zero to 60 [and] doesn’t seem to understand that there are some things you can’t do.” So, maybe the fans will like the prince when they get to know him.’

 

As yet unidentified language spoken by the people of Newcastle:

 

‘For one thing, he [MbS] would need an interpreter to translate his no-doubt inspiring motivational speeches from Arabic into English and a second interpreter to translate them from English into the as yet unidentified language spoken by the people of Newcastle. In reality, he may not need to do very much.’

 

Many of them would be willing to accept a bid from Lucifer:

 

‘Besides, in defense of Newcastle fans’ willingness to overlook MbS’ crimes, many of them would be willing to accept a bid from Lucifer himself if it meant finally seeing the back of Ashley.’

The postcode is for HMRC at least.

What the actual fuck was that load of drivel?

Pretty sure this is affiliated somehow with "Burnsie", so it's a load of shite.

HMRC have absolutely fuck all to do with any takeover.

 

Yet another garbage tweetthingy...

Not quite right..

 

There are taxes involved on any profit MA makes. The tweet is bullshit mind, HMRC wouldn't be involved yet but they do have an interest later

[1964]

I can't begin to tell you what a heap of steaming dog shit that HMRC link is.  Believe me when I say I know

[Guest chopey]

The HRMC got Charners locked up didn't they?

[Dokko]

They are trying to suggest money has been transferred and MA is paying the taxes on the sale right now. It's pretty imaginative. Even researched the postcode and room for the dept it would happen in.

So he can use Google then.

What a cunt.

Its an attempt for publicity man. He/they will be hoping it makes the local news etc and their names and publication gets a raised profile. The more reaction it gets the more chance there is of it happening.

 

Be interesting to find out how whoever find it came about it.

[Interpolic]

Aye anah, he's still a cunt.

[TRon]

Once the season is finished now imo. Then the PL can hide from the fallout for a couple of months.

 

Good shout. If it's going to go through, that would be the right time for the PL officials to cut and run after giving it the sign off.

[madras]

Aye anah, he's still a cunt.

Aye I suppose.

[jackyboy]

End of season announcement then SB can give them his shopping list of the new players he wants to take the club forward, since he walked through the door, I'm nobody's patsy, I don't want to make excuses, we played really well today (after getting hammered), front foot

 

PLEASE HAPPEN AND GET RID OF THIS FACE LICKING TOSSER

There’s no way they’re keeping this knacker, he’ll be out the door pronto.

 

You could give him the best players in the world, but they’d not be much good in the treatment room.

 

Good managers are not readily available often, and especially not out of contract ones. There’ll be no messing about here Pochettino nailed on.

[wormy]

#wait

[Chris_R]

#wait

 

That could've been the club motto for the last 13 years. Now even with the end supposedly in sight, we have to wait 4 times (and counting) as long as it's supposed to take.

[Ankles Bennett]

I'm not in favour of Pochatino.  He had mega bucks at spurs plus two class strikers and still couldn't win anything.  Much prefer Benitez.

That’s not strictly true. I’m sure he spent relatively little in comparison to quite a few teams around the top and got pretty close to winning both the Premier League and Champions League. Also, just compare the way Spurs now play under Mourinho and you can see how good Pochettino is

I'm glad you've got fuck all to do with anything.
