Manure have famously spent a fortune servicing their debt. They may be, they may not, depends if they are getting "preferential" loan rates significantly below "market value" If they are only paying 2-3% for example Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 So in summary we're not their top priority, never were, and the ambition is to still be the top club in the country. Thanks for that fascinating insight Luke. Here's the article paywall free if you've to take a shite anytime soon and want something to read. https://web.archive.org/web/20241009080243/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/10/09/newcastle-not-pif-priority-three-years-saudi-takeover/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegans Export Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 Personally I never expected NUFC to be their top priority, or even close. Bin Salman spent more on a painting for his yacht than PIF spent buying 80% of the club. Quote “The chairman said we want to be the number one club in the country,” a source told Telegraph Sport. “What does that mean in reality? “Well, the message has always been consistent. It is about achieving long-term, sustainable success. To challenge for trophies every year, to try and qualify for the Champions League every year. ...but that sounds more than good enough to me.

Sibierski Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 God forbid they turn us into a sustainable club, that produces home grown talent and regularly is in the frame to battle for UCL and titles when the stars align for that season.
