Greg Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Absolutely disgusting that NUST is letting its members and other fans know it has a dialogue with the Premier League on behalf of its members. Absolutely disgusting decision to keep this dialogue open and look to build a better platform with the PL to stand up for fans. Disgusting that NUST wants to act professionally and build that dialogue further for the betterment of fans going forward in the long term rather than just as a PR exercise. Of course it would have been much better to just release the letter it sent as a PR exercise and make NUFC twitter happy, and not get a response from the CEO of the Premier League, and not build a relationship for future dialogue with the top man at the Premier League. Can I ask, are all members made aware of the contents or just the senior members? I don't blame for you trying to open a formal dialogue with the league, I'm just curious how those type of things work in what is a fans group. Just the executive board members not the plebs. Just be a courteous reply I would have thought similar to the Kashogi fiance received. He stated today that the matter was confidential so be absolutely gobsmacked if it was anything else. This your not missing out on anything I would suggest, just a bog standard holding reply saying their views will be taken on board. Joke aside though think they’re doing the right thing keeping it private, all opponents of the deal have leaked letters to press, shows a bit of respect and will give them credibility with PL for any future dealings. The latter part was one of the main points from our barrister in terms of credibility and influence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Why are people up in arms about NUST? They have demonstrated they can be trusted to have a dialogue and not “fish for likes” by plastering it all over the internet. I might not matter too much to the PL but you can bet the new owners will take note of this when it comes to including them in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, too much has been played out in the media via deliberate leaked letters. Appreciate the Trust rising above it and I'm sure will release when their legal counsel advises.

mrmojorisin75 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 On the NUST thing I'd personally have like to have seen an opinion thrown in as well, along the lines of We got a response, thanks, and we're confident from it that things are being fairly done Or We got a response and it's so opaque that we're not confident that the process is fair and reasonable However you word it What's to lose? If the response tells you the PL are playing at cunts what's to lose by telling people? If the response tells you they're good guys nothing to lose by saying it. Nothing confidential has to be revealed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am almost 100% certain the response was the same boiler plate “we cannot comment...” and then some sort of personalised nicety at the end. And if it was that, it would be pointless to go public with it. The intrigue about the response serves the trust better to be honest. I’ve no issue with that at all.

Greg Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Richard Master's literally wrote to the legal counsel acting for Hetiz Cengiz complaining their correspondence had been leak into the media. If we never want to speak to them again, and not use this as an opportunity to build some sort of dialogue with the CEO of the Premier League beyond the takeover e.g. on other matters, then we could throw it all away for some likes on Twitter. But that would be very stupid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s far more use having a trust representing the fans that either the club or other organisations can trust to have a dialogue with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but he’s been with the PL since 2006, started off as their head of sales and marketing before being promoted to Chief Executive. Before that he spent 5 years as the commercial director for the football league. He’s not some blow in they took off the street. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue just saying he acknowledged the letter would have been suffice. The second you talk about 'keeping it private' it gives a connotation that there is vital information being shared.

FinnMag Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Masters was also asked about piracy in Saudi Arabia - something which many feel is holding up the deal - and he said: "BeoutQ is now off the air, and what we want, off the back of the WTO report, is for Saudi Arabia to respond positively the situation and to allow sports rights-holders to take their rights." When Masters was asked how long it would take to conclude, he responded: "Shortly". :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Much as Manchester City’s Middle Eastern backers have done in the eastern part of that city, the Saudis could invest in broader regeneration in Newcastle, showing their benevolence, leveraging some cultural capital and further burnishing their image – which, let’s not forget, is an all-important consideration in the deal. So while Newcastle's Toon Army and the House of Saud may seem unlikely bedfellows, they offer exactly what the other side needs. Through the takeover on Tyneside, the stage is being prepared for an unlikely union, but one which could shake the top of the footballing tree. *the Russians know the score* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
