June to July 2020 - NUFC

I'm absolutely convinced they never wanted this non-takeover to go through. A PR nightmare that could've easily turn into a disaster. They've played an absolute blinder here, delaying, delaying and delaying until the Saudis pulled out so they don't even have a legal case to answer in court. Credit where credit is due

I think the Premier League never wanted this to go through. PR nightmare.

That and they've got a £400 million pound TV rights deal with BeIN Sports.

Newcastle's a massive club...are they fook.

 

[Ale taster]

Would be funny as fuck if they went and bought someone like Brighton and didn't give a fuck about FFP. Spending 3-400m this summer.

Imagine if they bought us instead ?

Look at that tracksuit

"I think the club is dead"

Keith Masters?
For someone following the takeover that intently surely he would get the PL CEOs name right?????

Apparently not......

The Saudi takeover summed up

 

[Shotton axe man]

Personally don’t believe the prem had anything to do with it, could be proven wrong like but I reckon it’s been dead in the watta for a couple months now.

 

[Nig]

Can anyone get me up to speed as to why it's collapsed or is just take the piss and find out later time?

They saw their supporters, then looked at the massive club down the road and that was that,

The

have allowed Mike Ashley to do this. He's undoubtedly asked for more cash, because there's a stooge in the wings promising more. He renowned (by people who have businesss with him) for changing deals last minute, and the Saudi's have rightly told him to jog on.

Ashley's getting the blame

I did say within 24 hours he'd get the blame. Didn't think it'd be this quick though.

 

[Nig]

Look at the pyatt on that boss eyed mess, it looks like he’s been cycling behind a gritter?

Fooker looks like he got stuck in a wind tunnel and someone threw a sack of ball bearings in.

Champion

You have no idea how many fucks he wont give

 

[Maravilla]

As if anyone actually thought it would happen

Given that Mark Campbell and FPP had both pretty much got to the stage of running us day-to-day before their takeovers collapsed you'd have thought people would have waited for their takeover to be officially done and dusted before shitting themselves.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

I see the latest angle is that the PL have blocked billions of investment within the NE

They seem to be getting the premier league mixed up with the last tory government?

 

[Deleted member 361]

Rivalry aside. The two MPs talking about mental health and one again talking about writing to the Premier League is actually disgraceful really.

This narrative that the top 6 are all corrupt and don’t want them to be in the club.

Yet they say all this about how corrupt it is and how the other owners in the top 6 are dodgy.. but that’s only a disgrace if they aren’t allowed to join them.

Because ultimately if they were to be in the club who cares if it’s dodgy. The hypocrisy is stunning.

If I take my red and white blinkers off for a minute the whole thing just stinks and shows football up for what it is these days. Do we need more oil money adding another super team? I’d argue we need to get rid of this type of model all together and pop the bubble of greed. I’d be happy if it was all clamped down on and the gravy train ended... even if we know it won’t because they’re all involved. media. Agents,premier league management. It’s sickening.

 

[Mr B]

After all this I hope the Saudis don't change their minds.....

I’ll miss big Mike, but I’ll be happy once he sells up to someone who can take them down to where they belong just in case another Saudi type bid comes along.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Apparently the Saudi's have scheduled a press conference tomorrow morning, presumably to explain why the deal has fallen through.

The venue is the Saudi embassy in London.

Not many journalists are expected to attend.

Mr Ryder might attend although he might be in bits at the end of it...............

Tv rights and this and that. The this and that being human rights and random beheadings.
