I don't think zero hours contracts are the devils work and I don't care that Mike Ashley uses them, I don't approve of any mistreatment of someone because of their sexuality nor do i see how NUFC signing a football player influences that problem.

I didn't think they are stoning people to death in Saudi Arabia for being gay, are you sure about this?
Wouldn't swear to that mind i haven't googled it or anything, i'll leave that to you.
It will carry the death penalty as it does in most counties where sharia law holds sway but i would imagine like most of them they will avoid using it.

You keep clinging to that nonsense.

if they murder a reporter in turkey stoning a few gays in public won’t bother them.

Post a link to the news article on the gays being stoned, not disputing you I would just find it surprising. I will obviously condemn the action when you post it.

That was the first link. I’m sure if I search through the rest of the search engine I’ll find it. Stoning of LGBT people in Saudi Arabia is allowed along with torture and other barbaric acts.

you’re just another mag who is happy to look away at a murderous dictatorship owning your club because you are going to spend a few quid.

it’s actually quite worrying that zero hours mike is a bigger monster to you lot than the king of SA causing mass genocide and starvation in Yemen.

The source above though is almost certainly Staveley. Could be true. But she blabs a lot and it's not necessarily all true.

Staveley is a weird one and blabs everything, she did it the last time too. I’m astonished that Ashley hasn’t pulled the plug.

The BEIN accusations won't have slowed anything down or at least no significantly. maybe the time it took them to email them and ask them for the proof they don't have.
Not that i am saying i am certain the take over will go through or anything because I'm not, like I always say i'll believe it when it happens and not before.

Just saying that BEIN don't even have an argument never mind a case when it comes to getting the premier league to block the deal on grounds of Piracy.
Their case in a nutshell is that a pirate broadcaster called BEOUTQ who they believe are based in Saudi, but can't prove and nobody knows who they are, broadcast their material with the knowledge of the Saudi government which they also can't prove.
They believe its done by a Saudi company which they took to court, lost and had so little evidence where refused the right to appeal and had to pay the Saudi's damages and costs.
They believe it's knowingly going out over Arabsat which they say is a Saudi owned satellite company which they also took to court and also lost, not to mention the fact Arabsat isn't even owned by the Saudi's.
Not to mention the fact that none of the above has anything to do with the company trying to buy Newcastle which is PIF who have never been accused of being involved in any of it.

It's not exactly a compelling argument is it, while i would not be surprised if the Saudi's are doing what they say they are it's not what you think it's what you have proved.
They may as well have wrote the PL a letter saying please don't let the Saudi's buy NUFC as it makes us sad.

Stop digging yourself a bigger hole and just admit you couldn’t give a shit about their appalling human rights and treatment of women because you’re daydreaming they sign Mbappe and deliver the champions league. You’d get more respect by just admitting all you all care about is being the next Man City.

imagine pretending you’re looking forward to them building better training facilities ffs:oops:

I skimmed the article and didn't see anything about a gay person/persons being stoned to death.
The article is dated 2015 and it mentions a woman sentenced to death for adultery, did she get stoned to death?
If you're going to adopt this stance and keep speaking out against these atrocities which is fair enough, I would suggest you at least spend the time and do a little research and accuse them of the things they are actually doing.
God knows there is enough horrendous stuff going on over their for us all to be appalled about without you having to make things up. stick to the facts it will provide you with a stronger argument.


probably worth you having a bit of a read up on Yemen as well by the way, who is fighting who, who both sides are i'm guessing by the statement you don't know much about it.

Which ones are you referring to? Most of it is made up or guesswork. "Sources" is a running joke.
But I'm sure since you've just decided for no reason that you are right! 😂

So is it made-up or guesswork that PIF are backing the takeover?

It’s also a pure coincidence, of course, that the likes of Caulkin and a few others, who Staveley has spoke to in the past, seemingly have an inside scoop on this. Being in the media spotlight is important for Amanda.
