Downie has been like a love sick puppy since the takeover. Getting excited that "His Excellence" will be at the game on Sunday. The right man to a tyrant. It's like getting excited because Gobbels will be there!!!

If we are attacking Holt for going to Saudi Arabia to do his job and being a hypocrite then his right about the Twitter. Amanda Staveley is equally as wicked and evil. She is quite happy to work for a murderous tyrant and gain from his dictatorship. That's what this all about.
You are still ignoring the fact that Holt in the past himself has on a number of occasions defended other clubs stating 'it doesn't matter where the money comes from' yet apparently it does now? Where is he morally drawing the line?
 

Again, he was talking about the owners he's met in response to a question about Bruce. Unless you genuinely believe he was referring to the Saudi prince in which case you are stating you think a sky journo would say that about someone committing atrocities which is mental.
Why did he delete his post then backtrack?

Because in his own words 'he realised how it may have come across' - acknowledging how mentalists like Holt and those of you on here have interpreted it. You have looked for what you want to see rather than what was actually there.

Hes speaking about people working for him.

Would you make money for your boss if he was accused of such crimes? The people running your club clearly aren't much better. You can join them in sympathising with the Saudi state.

At least you'll get a new goalkeeper though eh?

'Mentalists'. Says the fan base running around with tea towels on their head and abusing the widow of kashoggi. Disgusting set of fans.

So anyone that works with the Saudi's are horrible bastards?
 
Hi from a .1 %

But we have got a billionaire owner who seems a nice chap so that do for me.
Mental how people have just accepted this brand of corporate football. When I was a young fan in the 90’s, the players and coaches used to come round schools, they’d talk to fans and were approachable. Now it’s just ran like any other multi-million pound business. I’d take our owner over there’s any day of the week, it still feels like a family club with the same ambition from owner down to the fans. If selling your heritage for a few trophies bought and paid for by money from a despot state is what you want, crack on. But you haven’t got your club back by any stretch and you’ve lost any respect you might’ve once had.

I'll search for that article and get the context.

So now we're mentalists because we didn't interpret something so vague in the right way.

You're really pushing your luck on here.

Time for another retraction if you have anything about you.

The people who Downie meant have direct contact with Mohammed bin Salman. They work for him and are happy to do business with him. They know who he is and what he has done. Therefore Amanda Staveley is not a "nice person".

Eh - if you think a sky journo would say something like that on his work based account you are daft. It would 100% put his job at risk.

You may dislike Downie, Christ I don't care about the fella myself but I doubt he'd come out saying the head loppers are cracking fellas.
What is more 'mental' @mag in peace ? People complaining about Saudi Arabia human rights violations and crimes. Or those wearing tea towels and abusing the widow of kashoggi.

Considering you throw 'mentalist' around easy, this should be a simple answer?
You are assuming I've not been critical of these fans. I have. The thread is nearly 1000 f***ing pages. I can't repeat myself in every post.
 
This is a project to boost tourism in KSA and their new cities. No doubt more British suppliers given contracts to help build Neom etc. Saudi tourism advertising imminent at SJP. After all, if Ashley van promote Sports Direct with a whacking great advert on the roof of a stand why cant they paint a picture of Saudi itself. The human rights record goes out the window as they dont understand it. If Kim Jong and the North Koreans bought nufc then it might sink in. I wonder why they disnt buy liverpool or arsenal for example. Ah that's right, as recent success means the fans arent desperate enough to turn a blind eye and there is a property boom in Newcastle to take advantage of. SjP to close now and new ground to the banks of the river Tyne and sjp knocked down for flats
Correct.

With those billions they could have bought anyone.

Their knowledgeable advisors would know its impossible to succeed at any other club other than those who would give everything up to get rid of Ashley. Even Ashley knows what's coming.

They need to advertise. They have no interest in Newcastle nor do they have any interest in F1 or boxing. They hate the west but they have the money and boy do they know how greedy the western world is. That's partly what fuels their hatred .

So why are we mentalists?

If the 1937 era Nazis had taken over he'd definitely be referring to Hitler as Mein Fuhrer. What an arse-licking wanker
 
A rich awab man is what they always wanted. Not a team that tries because they where unhappy at finishing 4 th under robson and 5 th under pardew. The only reason they turned on Ashley was because he didn’t buy the league like Chelsea did that’s what they expected him to do. They only turned on him when they seen what happened to Man City and they wanted Ashley out because they thought if they can do it so can we.

Spot on.
