I'd have been interested to have seen a survey of Newcastle fans to see if they'd prefer the Saudi bid, the Orleggi group, or some US Billionaire.

They did that on twitter and was massively in favour of the Saudi bid, many said it was the only bid they wanted.

Johnson probably threatened them with a Football Regulator if they knocked them back.

Oh I totally agree with that. But my point is more that there's no forum where journalist can question them on the matter and we can at least watch them squirm trying to explain themselves when there's no justifiable explanation

I certainly wouldn't say Bruce is as good as benitez, if I had to choose for Sunderland it would be benitez every time. That being said I don't think the job he did at Newcastle was good enough, or better than Bruce enough, to warrant the seemingly endless adulation from the Newcastle fans whilst Bruce is pretty much seen as the worst manager of all time

Benitez built good foundations and, with the squad he had, we did pretty well. If he'd been given the kind of freedom to build the squad he wanted (as he is at Everton) I think we'd have built on that solid foundation.

Bruce inherited a strong defence and slowly chipped away at that foundation, the squad that he has should be playing way better than it is. If he'd stayed, we'd have got progressively worse and likely gone down.

Well you already had an English Billionaire and he wasn't good enough for you

Ashley would have been fine if had a modicum of interest in more than survival.

They just want to compete, they don't expect top 4 ..Now

New 80k stadium
Champions league in 2/3yr
Can't attract players like Mbappe and Haaland just yet

Horror Fyass has no idea what she's done by scrounging to her mates to get her that club it'll be spectacular when it doesn't go to plan though 😃

they dont even want to compete. they just want a team that tries. apparently they aren't at the minute, they'll start trying once they've spent 500m i guess.

They need to focus on not getting relegated first. Also there is no way they could regularly fill 80,000.


Grade II listed park and also the oldest park in the city. It goes to show they really don't give a shit about anything else, as long their beloved toon wins a trophy.

true. why dont they take part of the town moor? its enormous. the current stadium size would only be a small corner.

Pete was once a ringer for a footy team I played for a few years ago. You won't meet a bigger bellend and he was absolutely shite.

His Tweet sums up these Mag ***** in the media.

Never forget these biased wankers who are supposed to be NE journalists, not NE1 media sycophants. True colours well and truly out sucking Mag d**k these last couple of weeks.

Never forget.

What aboutism probably isn't helpful but he has a point i think that many critics are really just upset at how rich NUFC is rather than upset aboit the human rights.

The thing that gets me is that some, though certainly not all, in the media are having a crack at fas (who don't have the power to approve or block takeovers) rather than having a crack at the actual people in power (govt, premier league). Punching down rather than up.

This is such an awful take.

People don't seem to be able to grasp, or don't seem willing to grasp that saudi Arabia is one of tbe most horrendous regimes on earth. And newcastle fans have pretty much en masse just buried their heads in the sand and come out with stock responses of "its just jealousy".

No its not. An English football club is now owned by a murderous, child killing state that also specialises in human dismemberment.

As for tbe fans they aggressively pushed for these scumbags to own their club and for tbe club to sell its soul. So they should probably own the fact that their club is now just a cover for the saudi state and the criticism that comes with it.
