Let me explain. Nobody gives two fucks about zero hour contracts, beheadings or khasshogi. We just want a successful football team. As do all football fans.

That statement is a bit far reaching and lacks compassion. Try telling those people on zero hour contracts who would prefer not to be on them, or family members and loved ones of those who have been beheaded. I suggest to you that they do give two fucks!

But you were all saying that you dont want a club that wins things...just a club that tries. MA has given you a Geordie manager, spent s fortune on players, has you in mid table and in the QF of the Cup. Surely that's trying. Then you whinge he spends nowt and complain about zero hours contracts even getting a local MP to waste Parliament time discussing it. Then you say dont care about the disgusting regime that may take you over? I dont quite understand Buttercup?

you’re right it does lack compassion and it’s certainly morally wrong.
My point was, and I probably didn’t articulate it well, was that I’m perfectly happy to turn a blind eye to Saudi ways if it means being a successful football club.

it’s completely hypocritical. I’ve never said it isn’t. If that’s what you’re saying I fully agree.

Why can't you lost just be honest and say "I know they are corrupt as can be and into all kinds, but they are minted and I want to see some investment at Newcastle"? It is embarrassing these lost mags, going on about how they are not subject to the O&D test, the state had nothing to do with these boxes, Khassogi's family have accepted the apology etc. Jesus, just call it what it is. We already think you are all wankers so you cannot go further down in our estimation.

On a scale of 1-10, 10 being supremely confident, how confident are you of this takeover coming off?

Truthfully 8.5 , I’ve already stated I’d be f***ing gutted but supposedly we will have another bite of the cherry with a American , who knows , I was excited to fuck but now I’m suspecting all isn’t straightforward in this deal, we have never been this close and believe me the vast majority of our support will be gutted.

Can’t be more truthful than that.Still I’m confident.

of course, that’s how it works. Out of interest as I genuinely don’t know, in what way do the Saudis pick our pocket ?
I’m very naive on this but I thought it was a very amicable relationship we had with them ?

It probably wasn't the best analogy, they don't pick our pockets, much the opposite.

Business wise everything is amicable, they visit the Queen and spend billions on contracts.

Can't understand why it hasn't just flown through.
