McDog Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) For me it was kinda funny. I started following the Premier League again for the first time in 20 years in August last year but didn't catch too many Newcastle games. I showed up for a video conference with my British IT manager counterparts and was wearing a 2004 Newcastle Home shirt. One of them said "Wearing Saudi colors mate?" - had no idea what he meant but after the call saw the news. Watched every game since as I had Newcastle merch, liked the team and wanted to see where the project would go. It has been an amazing several months. Edit: I should add I was a huge Newcastle fan way back then. That was the team I supported. Edited April 30, 2022 by McDog Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Hearing from some mates on here that the deal was happening on a bad personal day was absurd. Then few days later when it was all kicking off at the stadium and I was on the road getting absolutely lit up and yelling toon toon in an airport lot ripped to shreds under the booze. Fucking a. Take me back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon25 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Have to say, after 2 years of personal turmoil and absolute despair, the takeover going through - at an unexpected moment - marked a significant turning point in my life, my recovery and my future. Unbelievable how much football affects you sometimes, but the takeover really gave me hope for a better future, silly as that sounds.

Fucking magnificent that’s what this club can do for us all at tough times. Great times coming no matter what happens today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres more chance of Norwich surviving than there is that he didn't either make the video himself or ask some other goon to do it for him. Attention seeking tit.

Paullow Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I didn't realise he had a Wraith like reputation . I've started to listen to a lot more podcast at work in recent months, including TF, and I quite like the content, and agree with a lot of what's said.

bhoywhonder Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 There was a very similar one done about 10 years ago post-promotion, it even had the same Florence and the Machine track behind it. I mean, at least change the literal lyric interpretation to something more upbeat ("its hard to dance with the devil on your back". Yeah, we get it....). Would've went for 'Skwod' by Nadia Rose ("Guess who's back? yea I rose from the dead"). Or 'Rock the Kasbah' just to piss off the right people.
