One by one mate, if I worked for a SAFC fanzine I’d be bricking it

If it did go through be interesting to see who refuses to advertise with them.

 

[Saff]

Why have the mags come straight to a Sunderland board instead of celebrating? Total obsession with Sunderland springs to mind.

Im just sad the Pardew dream is dead

By which she means a half mile radius of the ground.

They were rumoured to be moving the ground if the deal went through when it was agreed to however many years ago....

Hopefully to Riyadh

It’s probably about 4-5 of them which all told isn’t really a lot.

The sad news for the ones who are on here is that they’re absolute f***ing freaks

100%. If benefits nobody other than Newcastle.

We've had Hangus the Monkey at Hartlepool, looks like being Beheadus the Magpie as the new skunk mascot.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. No doubt it will be an exciting time for them but I suspect their new ownership is about to come under huge scrutiny.

They will get a free hit with the first £200-300m spend, but after that they can’t really afford to get it wrong as I suspect the PL will hammer them with ffp

Well yes, it’s true that Saudi Arabia are an awful bunch with terrible human rights issues. Not sure that I need to stop supporting the club I had for life though. Would you?

Yes. I have a conscience. Some things are worth more to me than having genocidal mass murderers owning my football club.
But that’s just me.

The I in PIF is for investment.
They're in it to make money, it would be hilarious if they were run sustainably.

They'll sell SJP and build a mosque

 

[johnny kayo]

It’s horrific news, doesn’t matter how it’s dressed up

 

[Horace Cope]

Hopefully to Riyadh

Made me laugh at the time because the only viable options were all south of the Tyne in the Gateshead and surrounding area

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

They'd have welcomed Islamic State as long as it made them look like a big clerb.

Also l, wonder if they'll still sing about a certain ex player of ours, seeing as the forced marrying of little girls was only abolished there a couple of years ago. Fantastic custodians.

I'm not sure FFP has much clout to be honest Hank. It's been slaps on the wrist mainly for clubs so far. And it still allows for mega spending. Wage caps would be a way forward.

It is for the female and LGBT section of the mags support.

 

[Jenks]

This is great news for the region if it happens. We may be able to loan some of their youth team and reserves.

Might be time for me to have two season tickets.

You’ll catch a few with that

We live rent free in their heids, it’s a shame cos as they are minted they should be paying us to be there.
