NUFC/Sportwashing

You're stuck down a hole, you're helped out but it's a member of the KKK. Can you be happy that you're out of a hole, and be disgusted at who got you out?

Staveley and the Premier League have issued statements insisting the PIF are separate to the KSA.

That's bollocks too.

I hope the Newcastle fanbase learn not to be complicit in Sportswashing.

If a KKK member helped me out of a hole I would thank him and that would be it. I wouldn't be begging him for his help. I wouldn't be starting petition for his help. I wouldn't let the KKK member use me to paint the Ku Klux Klan in a positive light so the world would ignore what they are. I wouldn't be out in the streets with a white hood on my head waving a White Power flag. I wouldn't be on Twitter abusing the widow of a murdered victim who was killed by the KKK.
 
@The Fish since you're one of the sensible mags, what do you make of the inter and Marseille links? I imagine if I'd been a mag, celebrating being the richest club in the world and dreaming of winning titles etc it would come as a bit of a blow tbh. Would they be the joint richest club? Does it suggest that they aren't going to throw the kind of money that would be needed to become, for example, champions league contenders? After all they'd likely have to spend similar on inter, just to have both aiming for the same thing. Maybe they want several clubs dripping with cash, or maybe NUFC will just be ran within FFP rules and they'll aim for sustainability. Don't really know what to make of it but certainly shows the mags acquisition is part of a bigger plan, whatever that may be

The ironic thing is KLD can fund us massively after a promotion of two (if achieved). Possibly the best owner we’ve ever had - that’s what a lot of the NUFC fans I work with don’t get. Some even called him a “budget billionaire” when he took over.

He's only worth slightly less than Ashley and his family wealth a factor of nearly 4x yet they haven't got a clue :lol:

Right, so you'd be happy to be out of the hole, and think the KKK-er is a wrong'un. Finally.

This is where we as a fanbase need to f***ing shape up, pretty sharpish. I hope that any dickhead wearing a towel on his head is confronted, I hope that every flag on twitter is confronted, I hope that everyone having a go at Khashoggi's widow is confronted.

We're definitely part of the diversification of that country's investments. Dunno if it'll cost as much to compete in Serie A as it will for us in the PL, but everything from Staveley is speaking to gradual steady improvement, rather than Chelsea/Man City splurges.

Dunno if KSA are looking to buy Inter outright, or if they just want a share?

Unfortunately 110 thousand of you begged the murderers to buy you. Anyone objecting to being used to deflect from murder and oppression will be in a massive minority and will be shouted down.
We’ll find out if/when we get the T-shirt thing off the ground.

It's on the website to buy for £15 in various sizes so I guess it must be! :lol:

Heard him taking credit for the takeover, turning his fans on other podcasts/twitter users, then calling for calm and accord.

The bloke is an embarrassment. Got more time for True Geordie than I do him, and I've no time for the fat lad at all.
 
Just watching SSN and its tured into NUFC TV. They've trailed an interview with Ranieri at Watford for over an hour and just about tongo there for it. They decided to speak to that slavering twat Downie first instead who mentioned Bruce driving away from the training ground at the udual time three times then, when they went to Watford, were informed Ranieri was sick of waiting for them and fucked off so, they started talking to the reporter standing inside Vicarage Road about Newcastle. Obviously it was that Mag who admitted to having tears in his eyes on Friday who was the anchor
