Whitley mag Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I don't think many people would want Saudi if they had a selection of owners to chose from, or even if the current one wasn't as s**** as Ashley. But sadly we are where we are. I would probably still pick Saudis ahead of most others tbh. If they're good enough partners for our govt, Amanda and the Reuben bros, they are good enough for me. Exactly these journalists now preaching we should be wary of their motives can f*** off. I’d happily see them purchase the club without passing the test, and then just fold the club to f*** off the PL. These journalists would be better off investigating which clubs are actively pulling Masters strings to prevent this and also what extent Bein are medalling behind the scenes. I would actually like this to be investigated - for exactly the same reason I want Hunter Biden to be investigated. This conspiracy theory is as bad as any of Trump’s ridiculous notions... Conspiracy theory or naivety on your part ? I think you’ll find certain clubs hold more sway than others. https://offthepitch.com/a/manchester-united-and-liverpool-given-special-access-vet-chief-executive-candidates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Just find it utterly bizarre that the prospective management structure of the club is the issue holding everything back PIF have a multi-billion business portfolio, with NUFC forming just a very small part of it. They're not amateurs when it comes to acquisition We don't know that it is. Well it's not because they don't eat pork so I'm fairly certain it is about the management structure.

I’d say you’d be more of an idiot to continue to want Sports Direct FC to represent our great city, in a league who clearly would only value us as being continued cannon fodder for the big 6. But each to there own I’m sure you’ll be amongst the thousands who continue to rock up and happily take it up the arse. Most of those who are against the takeover probably don't attend games anyway. Some of them might be actual moral objectors. Although they'll probably happily join millions of others in marvelling at football played by clubs like Chelsea and City with their angelic owners.

And most of the people in favour of the takeover has no idea who MBS is or what he has done and are willing to do to get what he wants. Don't get me wrong, I would love Newcastle to have bottomless pits of money and compete with the best in the world. But I don't want MBS as our owner. Doesn't mind Amanda Stavely or the Reuben brothers though, think they could be good owners without PIF. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you either like MBS and what he stands for or you just don't give a shit and want Newcastle to get his money. I'm more worried what he could do to Newcastle when/if he looses interest. How would he react the day the fans will drive him out as with Ashley right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 The only way to ever improve the world we live in is to (how can I put it) 'embrace' and 'deal and communicate' with rulers and countries that are currently like Saudi Arabia, there are plenty of them. aaah yes like we did with south africa during apartheid You can pick many examples from any of the 'big old countries', certainly a few from us in the UK, but that is history, it is not how it would work in the modern world. Why would you choose to seek out examples from the long past, just to try and make some point. Why? I'd take issue with your comments because it seems like 'improve' is being substituted for 'become like us and adopt our values'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
