This protest is for what exactly? The PL denied the takeover because bong eye and co couldn’t satisfy the question about if PIF is separate from the takeover. Which it isn’t by the way, the buyers then walked away.

Anyone else would accept it and get on with their lives. Not these head cases though.

Are you having a laugh? It is bloody obvious what the prutest is for? The currupt preemya leeg blocked the Soodi takowa of the Toon and that meant Messi and Ronaldo went to other teems. Mbappe is hanging on as hes been telt it will be done before the January transfer thing. Its the fault of the Keeys bloke and Hoffman who divnt like the Toon. The big 6 know if the Tooon get money that they screwed as no other teeem loves football more, or loves the FA cup more, or deserves it more or has the faymus number 9 or has more passionate fans. The big 6 have telt that Masters gadgee that if he lets the takeover go through they will go to the soooper league. That's what the prutest is about. Aye, and investment in the reeegan.

The shenanigans going on up the road are like a 'Alice in Sunderland' novel - twists, turns, intrigue, conspiracy, deception, treason, sabotage - but at the end of the day it is just a fairy tale to amuse MLFs, and to the general public who can be bothered to give a toss.

Newcastle United have been named as the club at the heart of a case being heard by a Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal.

The Law Gazette reporting that The Solicitors Regulation Authority said on Wednesday (15th September 2021) that London firm Mishcon de Reya and its former partner Elizabeth Ellen allowed for payments to transfer fixers who helped to push through deals involving their client Newcastle United in 2011.

The report explaining that: ‘James Ramsden QC, for the SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority), told the tribunal that the use of the client account was not sufficiently connected with the provision of legal services and was therefore a breach of the rules.’

Whilst the players and counter-parties that make up the case are being kept anonymous, the tribunal accepted the naming of Newcastle United as the club involved.

For Newcastle United fans no doubt, they will be thinking that if any club was going to end up being named as the Premier League outfit at the heart of such a case, no surprise that NUFC is making headlines yet again.

Looking back to 2011, the players that Newcastle United signed were Davide Santon, Yohan Cabaye, Gabriel Obertan, Demba Ba, Rob Elliot, Sylvain Marveaux and Mehdi Abeid. Those players then helping NUFC to a surprise fifth place finish, Papiss Cisse signing mid-season in January 2012.

You would assume that this case involves transfers of incoming players, but as for those who were sold in 2011 by Newcastle United, we saw Joe Enrique, Kevin Nolan, Kazenga LuaLua and Wayne Routledge leave.

‘A solicitor and her firm were responsible for using the client account to pay third parties involved in football transfers involving a Premier League club, the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal has heard.

The Solicitors Regulation Authority said today that London firm Mishcon de Reya and its former partner Elizabeth Ellen allowed for payments to transfer fixers who helped to push through deals involving their client Newcastle United in 2011.

James Ramsden QC, for the SRA, told the tribunal that the use of the client account was not sufficiently connected with the provision of legal services and was therefore a breach of the rules.

He said that Ellen was not an inexperienced solicitor in the operation but rather an introducer of counter-parties and key part of five transactions under scrutiny from beginning to end.

But what does it mean for the takeover?
 
Can see the mags being comfortably in control of the game against Leeds, two of three up. Only for the ref to abandon the game due to the whistles and dangerous projectiles. 3 points awarded to LUFC.

It was a different era in the 70s and 80s though. Some of this might be because I was a bairn just getting into football, but it was not as huge as it is now. To me football clubs back then were home town clubs, supported by the locals. You had teams that a lot of other fans liked and respected and teams that everyone hated, but national exposure was match of the day and the news papers. You had limited games on TV, but the likes of Liverpool picked up a few young fans from around the country, partly by being in televised cup finals. Meanwhile the likes of Sunderland and Newcastle had good seasons and bad seasons, drifting up and down the league, largely unnoticed by the masses, same as about 85 other league clubs. There was very little international exposure.

Then Newcastle exploded onto the scene with Keegan and Hall, splashing lots of money left right and centre. They played games with lots of goals by building a team of forwards with no defence. There was real excitement and attention, right at the time Sky took over English football and made it a massive worldwide thing. Almost instantly you could watch masses of football like never before. Newcastle were smart with their PR and marketing, giving the media their little cliches they still use today,making a Toon brand, geordie nation etc. Even when not playing, Newcastle were always in the news. It felt like you had the predictable, solid Man U winning everything and this mental club with goals and money everywhere, but the drama of constant heart break, right at the time Sky needed darlings to sell their new product to the world. Both were in the right place at the right time.

By comparison when Sunderland had their spell under Reid, we went about it quietly. PR and marketing were something for other clubs.

Newcastle didn’t win anything, they were very entertaining runners up and also-rans. But now, they are no longer a media giant. Two decades have passed since they exploded into something massive, and they are now just another club who flirt with the relegation zone and drift to mid table. Media profile and excitement wise, there is little to chose between them and Villa. In the whole public perception they are a husk of this media giant they were. On the pitch, there has been little excitement in the team for years. In the 70s and 80s, nobody expected much, but once you build a club up to be a famous worldwide brand, it is hard to take shrivelling into nothing again.

This sounds like corruption to me, transparency is needed to get to the bottom of it. Wonder if the mags take this on as well as part of their moral crusade.
