I don't understand, why are all the mags on social media saying "We've got our club back".
When its been bought by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia?

I understand celebrating getting rid of a dickhead owner, and being excited as owt about having basically unlimited cash to spend. But they haven't got their club "Back". Its been given to some arabs from half way around the world.

Mrs has dropped on me that one of the brother in laws (non attending mag) is coming round for drinks with his lass… should be fun. First one I’ve encountered in person since this went through.

I bet the likes of Man City , Chelsea , Man Utd, PSG , Real , Barca are absolutely delighted with this news
They will be able to sell all their reserve players who they can’t shift because they are on obscene contracts , players like courtino , matic , mata , Barkley etc , and who do you think will be stupid enough to buy them and carry on paying them stupid money
Yep Newcastle

There is a strong rumour that one of those listed would not be welcome in the KSA and won't be going to the landfill. I bumped into him on Mykonos and he was very friendly.

The biographer that is the source of that allegation is currently getting sued for libel by Abramovich for making it.

Can't wait for the first self respecting player to come out and publicly turn a move to them down due to their owners. Many more will then follow suit.

You are f***ing joking mate I take? Players with principles? 1 in 100 at best. Agents will be wanking themselves daft at the thought of going to negotiate with the fuckers when they have no European football and imagine if they ever get there, fuck me. Anyway that's my last comment on the matter, twats to a man.

I have never read any of this thread and don't know whats been posted.

My take on it all

I've always thought that Two Newcastle fans died in a state sponsored murder when their plane was shot down along with many others. Many on here including myself grieved with their fans and donated a fantastic sum of money with sympathy.

However, Jamal Khashoggi also died in a state sponsored murder when he was strangled and hacked to pieces.

The source of money which paid for the murder of Khashoggi is the same source of money which has bought and paid for a significant part of NUFC.

I wonder if the family and friends of those lads who were killed in a state sponsored murder can see the connection? Doesn't appear that their fans care about it to be honest.

Very sad state of the world IMHO, when kicking a ball around is more important.

That means watching the last World cup (which almost everyone did) is no different to them being caught up in this and defeats the points scoring arguement. They're both wrong and shouldn't have happened but you can't indulge in one because it suits and get moral about the other because it doesn't
Seeing people on the previous pages turning a blind eye to everything else - Chelsea, Man City, PSG - all the other Arab/Chinese/Russian money in clubs (and businesses) is ironically the attitude that causes this (its Man City rather than newcastle so that's not so bad) and they're still doing it, there's only one thing that seems to bother them and you cant extracate who has been bought from that.
