I'm most certainly not!!! My point was that up until they became involved with them up the road I'd never heard a fellow Sunderland fan complain about their human rights issues. None of us gave a toss so I'm not going to pretend to get all worked up about it now. If they'd bought us I wouldn't be bothered about it either and that's the truth. I'm just a football fan and I just want to go along and enjoy the match. No doubt they are the same. We're also at the beginning of a new era under a new owner and we're going along nicely. I'd rather concentrate on that.

OK, you've made that point dozens of times.

You've never heard, other people have heard.

End of story.


".We're also at the beginning of a new era under a new owner and we're going along nicely. I'd rather concentrate on that."

So why don't you?

I hope those whose morals are so high do not use the investments of these people.
If Newcastle fans are expected to give up their club on moral grounds then all those with morals over this should cease to use anything that has been invested in by this group.
Does everyone do this?

If not it is massively hypocritical and is a clear indication of the subjectiveness I mentioned.
Sorry to bring this up but fair's fair.

Well done, you managed to get in the Disney / Uber comment without actually mentioning them.

As their minor investments are far reaching and constantly changing, it’ll be almost impossible for the average man in the street to keep track of them, unlike the companies they actually own. The problem is that the purchase of your lot isn’t simply as an investment with the objective being a healthy return for their fund, it’s to allow you to be used to help cleanse their atrocious reputation and anyone who simply accepts it is helping them to achieve this.

You really are a bit thick aren't you.

Why the fuck would football fans in the pub be talking about Suadi murderers when it as nothing to do with football?

Why the fuck would football fans on a football forum be talking about Saudi murderers when it as nothing to do with football?

Why the fuck would football fans on a football forum be talking about Saudi murderers buying Newcastle when it as nothing to...........oh wait🤔

I assume now that you know you will now give up on everything you can find that you use, related to their investment....right?

In terms of being a pariah club

Chelsea and Man City are one thing but Geordie Arabia has set off more moral outrage than every other club combined

Yep, subjective moral outrage.
The majority will be outraged whilst using the investments of the same regime.
Hypocriticalness off the scale...but we're all hypocrites. It's just a case of what brings it out.
 
800 pages of abuse, including my own contribution. Just for the sake of alternative opinion, it could be argued some benefits will come to the north east if Newcastle does morph into Man City/PSG. Positives:-

1. If your a tyneside kid who wants to play football, then Sunderland might be the only avenue if you want to stay in the NE.
2. Players who sign for Newcastle and then subsequently don't fit in, its natural if they're have a house here to maybe come down the road.
3. The newcastle economy will be seriously boosted again and that helps us all.
4. The rest of the country will come to hate that strip and club and whatever vestiges of moral authority the mags once had, has being shredded. Its chance for us to get promoted and once again be seen as the plucky brits chipping away at the new colossus and any victory really would be all the sweeter for it.

It's galling when the main paper that is as aghast as the majority of the UK over the Saudi takeover is the Mail.

Fans groups selling their soul for this blood money.

A Newcastle United Supporters Trust survey found 93.8 per cent of members in favour. But this is dirty money from a dirty state: a new low for the game and a stain on one of our great football clubs. Both deserve better.

Where is Caulkin and all these other NE reporters?

They are a disgrace to their profession.

The Saudi state don't own Disney or Uber, they have a tiny amount of shares.

A tiny amount of shares?
What monetary value would a tiny amount of shares be?

Would it be ok if those same people only put 50 pence into Newcastle. Would that make it ok with you?

I certainly will, could you please provide a list of the companies they own. Exclude the ones where they have minor investments of less than 50% as they won’t actually have any control over those.

I realise I may be waiting a long time for this list to appear.

That's about as logical and persuasive as your preposterous flat earth opinions.

Decent football fans around the globe will be appalled at the way your fans are happy to accept this blood money.

No.

I'm gonna order an Uber eats and thank the delivery driver in the voice of Bernard Bresslaw from carry on up the Kyber.

Then drape an Islamic flag across the window, stick a tea towel on me heed and put Bambi on.
