No it won’t.

People are getting all high and mighty over this, pretending that they wouldn’t want it happening to their club. Some may stick to their morals, but the vast majority would be over the moon

Naturally, like most I fully oppose what I have read about their regime.
wgat would you like me to personally do about it ?
I presume you likewise feel the same so what would you likewise do about it as you have as much to do with it as I do ??

You are right it is hypocrisy, but I want it to collapse myself because I hate the Mags.

Are you happy to be backed by a regime with a hideous human rights record against women, LGBTQ community, people who oppose their regime and non muslim poeple ?

Why would my moral stance change because they buy my club?
Unless i am mistaken that is what you have been accusing me of.
Your argument is now that the Saudi's are buying Newcastle my moral compass is out of the window and I suddenly don't care about their human rights violations.

My point is 6 months ago while i disapproved of the human rights violations I was not out demonstrating against them. In 6 months time i will still disapprove of their human rights violations and i still won't be out demonstrating.

I am curious because I genuinely have no idea, what is it precisely that you expect myself as a Newcastle fan to do should this take over go ahead, what is it you feel would be the right thing for me to do.

You are exposing the weak arguments of those whose blind hatred clouds their views on Newcastle United.

Frankly, you are speaking into the echo chamber but it’s good to read your well reasoned points.

Or aye, me too don’t get me wrong.

It’s hypocrisy all round. Newcastle fans who had issues with Ashley’s business ethics and practices suddenly couldn’t give a fuck about these taking over. People who usually couldn’t give a fuck about the Saudis are suddenly experts on what happens over there

Ok...you could protest in Northumberland Street, lobby your MP, if you had a conscience that is .

Most people didn't do that with Ashley who the vast majority wanted out.
Unlikely people are gonna bother doing that for incoming mega rich owners.

If you think his posts are well reasoned, you should be worrying more about how weak your own intellectual scaffolding is and doing something to urgently strengthen it, than what a bunch of Sunderland fans have to say.

I imagine it must be difficult for you to find work and keep a roof over your head when you have the logic faculties of someone who eats crayons.

The blue ones are the nicest. Red ones taste a bit like strawberries.
