Kanji Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Keep that man interested and happy and we'll be golden. He's emotionally invested, probably the only time you'll ever see him like this in an interview. Particularly if you see him talk from his PIF point of view. I've long said I felt the main reason the PIF did this was because Yasir fucking LOVES sport and now he's absolutely hooked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any boffins know why, Always get nervy that the Premier League are going to do us over Apollo is one of the largest PE / Fund managers so if is the same Apollo then maybe PCP has taken on some further investment or another financial event has occurred .. alternatively, could just be a name change !

I couldn't give two fucks personally, the Saudis will force none of their beliefs on us and vice versa. We live in a country where the government are openly admiting that they are making us suffer to bring down inflation, they stole billions from the public purse to give to their mates. They lied at every turn and continue to do it to stay in power, it may as well be a dictatorship because we get fucked over and can do nothing about it. So facing that every day I welcome the Saudis sensibly investing in our club and community to give us a ray of hope once a week. Stuff the haters, they had no sympathy during the Ashley years so why should we care now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've long said I felt the main reason the PIF did this was because Yasir fucking LOVES sport and now he's absolutely hooked. 100% this. It may have started as a business endeavour for PIF, but their chairman visibly and evidently fell in love with the club and the stadium the first time he stepped foot in Saint James’ and he still has that sparkle in his eye. Absolutely loved the response to that first question if they expected CL and a cup final in their first full season. These are not here to make up the numbers or accept anything but supremacy. They will invest in top class infrastructure, grow revenue year on year and then reinvest every single penny they can into the squad. They’re basically the polar opposite of what Ashley was. I still need to pinch myself from time to time to ensure it’s real and I’ve not made it up as some coping mechanism to deal with the neglect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 For a man who's so successful and amongst the who's who in business and sport around the world, I still can't get over how happy he gets when he's talking about NUFC, in the stadium looking at the fans etc. He genuinely looks like he's loving it.
