I can't really agree with this.

There are plenty of things about this country that we can be very proud of, there are other things that are an embarrassment. The relationship with Saudi Arabia is one of the most embarrassing, in my eyes.

Can't argue that people in the north east are involved in the arms industry. In my view, that's a real shame, but these are people who have to earn a living. I'm sure many of them would rather do something else. There will be many others involved in other industries that could be considered unethical - in the end we all have to make some form of compromise with capitalism in order to survive - its how the world is.

Having said that, we've still got a reasonable amount of freedom to decide what we do on our days off. If you choose to spend that time propagandising for Saudi Arabia, petitioning Parliament for them to take over your club, and launching the biggest campaign for a takeover anyone's ever seen, then you're going to get a lot of stick and you're going to deserve it in my view.

The dishonesty in pretending to be 'concerned' once the massive campaign was completely successful, and the the pathetic lies about helping them to change (which didn't just come from idiots like Wraith) are deserving of criticism on their own.

They are active and willing participants in a propaganda machine for Saudi Arabia. Nearly all of them begged for it, and they've now got it. They should get the stick that goes with it as well - they fully deserve it.

Continho would be a good signing because he’ll take the money and contribute nothing. Exactly the signing I hope they make.

I disagree.
He's the kind of signing that they'd want. A recognised name that they can use to claim that they're a massive club capable of competing with the best. If he turns out to contribute nothing, they'll blame the leacy left by Bruce and Ashley.

Imagine choosing Barcelona over Newcastle man! 😂😂😂

Inexplicable. Why would he play for Barcelona in the champions league when he could be playing alongside longstaff and joelinton, and be under the tutelage of the managerial colossus that is Beheaddie the eighth in the championship. I mean who could resist the allure of the bigg market on a Friday night? The kebabs, the fights, the stag and hen parties. And above all the overpowering stench of shite wafting in through the bedroom window every morning.

It’s quality all this, because when they realise it’s nothing what they think it’s going to be, the toys will be well and truly out the pram
