The murderers are playing these thick fuckers brilliantly.![]()
Its not hard. You or I could do it
Pretend to have/have access to BIG money. Money to burn. (that's the hard bit)
Make promises you know you can't fulfill and football fans (not just Newcastle) will lap it up and nothing else will matter.
Solidify your god-like status by cleaning some windows, painting a few stairwells and sending out tweets that tag in/refer to club legends. Have grand plans for Stadium, training ground etc. (Reynolds at Darlo once unveiled a plan for development that included a dry ski slope).
Newcastle are falling for it. But so would fans of a lot of clubs. I hate to say it, but we could be just as easily played by false promises and the money.
What's different with Newcastle is the moral element. We know what the Saudis and MBS are. We know that association is dubious. So do they.
I don't know, and never will know how our fanbase would react if PiF had bought us. But I know one thing... I'd not be wearing Arab dress and calling Staveley "Queen Amanda".
