oof

I hope she hasnt borrowed the money from PIF - not sure what would happen if she couldn't pay I back

There's a rabbit away here. Why would PIF loan her money to buy shares, if they were about to make Newcastle the richest club on the planet and therefore, a money pit? These fellas are in it for a return.
Investment funds aren't kept going for 50 years without them making money.

What happened to her face? Is she ill or is it plastic surgery? There's a picture of her on here from 2016 I think and she looked very pretty. What happened?

Diagnosed with hungtintons disease just after that 2016 pic was taken.

There was more than that caught on the telly cameras during the game man and only one was a bairn. Not to mention numerous pictures of dafties outside the ground, supping cans.

if the level was even 5 per cent of the total it would fund newcastle for a very long time..

pretty sure it's illigal for Muslims to get interest and make money from money in a bank

Do they not already play with pride and passion? Seems to me they do but are handicapped somewhat by their lack of ability.

Also where was the pride and passion in creating that poster? Shit effort, son

I thought the team showed pride and passion yesterday, they just weren't as good as Tottenham. It was the fans who didn't make a peep after Tottenham equalised.

 

[Thatheaderman]

thats why they are buying newcastle abd ither assets..to move away from oil!

True.

What I'm getting at is Bidens response when he finds out for definite, if CIA allow.

Cant see anyone making much in a football club anyway, legally that is.

Well, when the fans turned up in French garb, the French players enjoyed it. You're stating that the Saudis would definitely be offended, but it's guesswork based on what you hope will happen rather than any proof.

Your question is predicated on my accepting that the chairman was ridiculed, which I don't believe he was.

1- I never mentioned the French episode. Whilst embarrassing for you, it has nothing to do with this.
2-I predicated that any decent person, owing a massive debt of gratitude to people for "giving me back my clerb" , might stop short of base stereotypes that ridicule the dress and sensibilities of said peoples.

Interest-bearing loans are certainly haram. Not sure what the status of receiving interest from a non-Islamic body might be,

 

[Deleted member 1169]

no it doesnt...the richest people in thr world always borrow whether they need to or not...the poor view being in debt as a bad thing..the ruch view it as a good thing..both are correct. investment funds choose to borrow all the time..
debt is also very tax efficient, though thats less relevant to the saudis

Is there any evidence you have to substantiate this or are you guessing? I am genuinely interested.

125bn ish is in Saudi stocks. The balance of the 150bn equity investments is largely in US equities, 3.5bn is Uber and they haven't broken even on that yet so unlikely to bail now. The SWF institute estimate the overall assets as 430bn so they have 280bn elsewhere largely in physical investment projects such as Neon via Softbank vision fund. No doubt they have a load of t-bills also and gold.

But this article (

) states they need to:

"The PIF and its companies aimed to contribute 1.2 trillion riyals to non-oil gross domestic product (GDP) by the end of 2025, he added." - that is 320bn USD.

I am becoming a bit obsessed with this only because I do not see them spending big on NUFC against this backdrop and they have bent for a few Burnley and Utd cast offs.

So they're after making money from Newcastle and using it as an advertising vehicle - like Ashley did?

They looked like they were trying yesterday. They ran about a canny bit. Some of them even had a sweat on. Yet they got booed off.
Maybe the youngun should have written “ a team that wins”

You’re not convincing anyone - the pictures are all over the internet / social media.

There was a lot of them and they definitely weren’t all daft kids.

You can try to rewrite history all you like but we all saw it man.

Pics like that and they wonder why the team lacks belief and confidence.

 

[Donnybrook]

you think that the fans went quiet after the equaliser? You were watching a different game to me then. I heard the fans support for the team dwindle as Spurs slowly put their boot on our neck and we meekly surrendered. As we have done throughout Bruce's tenure.

We played well for 10-15, then we became more passive with a disorganised high line, Spurs capitalised with balls over the top. We never got a foothold in the midfield, couldn't find an outlet, our attackers were coming deep just to get a touch. In other words, the team lost because they lack leadership, organisation and confidence.

No confidence must be hard to admit with the amount of unwashed in attendance ...i heard yer getting sacked in the morning but that could have been spurs like...oh and booing i dont think that was the spurs

Not exactly selling the club to potential new transfers are they?
