Just been listening to Max Rushden and a times journalist. Both massively against this takeover. The journalist said he was appalled at the street scenes but more appalled at the disgusting posts on Khashoggi windows timeline.

Max asked him about the PL stance that the kingdom of Saudi do not own the filth. The journalist said "I'm not even going to waste my breath on that"

So everyone is basically clear that the state do own the filth.

So question is what's masters and co gonna do now.

Too late now they’re already in.
 

Well the Saudi-Scum are fast becoming the most hated club in World football, and will be media targeted by all, deservedly so.

Oh and as a quick btw

The premier league comment...

"The Premier League has now received legally binding assurances that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will not control Newcastle United Football Club.


How the fook can they state this?

Legally binding, vetted and monitored daily basis by who FFS. :evil:

I guess you’re all going to stop using facebook because they own a decent chunk of them. Or stop going on Cruise holidays because they own a chunk of Carnival. Or stop watching super hero movies or taking your kids to theme parks because they own a chunk of Disney? No.. didn’t think so 😂

Forgive me if I think it's wrong to attack the way a woman looks. I've mentioned this before elsewhere so it's not like I'm being precious. I said the same thing recently on the politics forum.

As a society, we need to stop body shaming and insulting people on the way they look. We need to be better than that.

As I said, attack one of the very many legitimate points, but let's not stoop low enough to insult the way a lass looks.

Whilst you're right its wrong to criticise people for their looks; when compared to celebrating a takeover of a group who blow up and starve kids, torture their own people, and chop journalists up its quite low down tbf.

And whilst I could be wrong I don't think you have had a go at those celebrating it and openly engaging in sports washing on behalf of that hideous state.

In a word Boris. The same great mind behind fake policy on the side of a bus, screwing NI by rushing through Brexit and a million other slapdash deals which don’t hold up to the light.

This is the absolute finest whataboutery I've ever seen.
The fans themselves when interviewed talked about how the celebration was about getting our club back. Sam fender on the BBC said it was because Ashley was gone.

You are acting like they were celebrating the Saudi regime - that's not true.

Not at all. I am interested. Strip away the owners wealth and who are actually the richest club.
It is the kind of question @Grumpy Old Man generally has an answer to.

Also need to look at indebtedness, and overall profitability. So that rules out clubs like Barcelona, Real and Inter. I'd have to say probably the two Manchester clubs (United have high debt levels, but easily serviced in the context of their income) and Liverpool. All three are now self-sustainable.

You would have to feel that the Labour party would have certainly put up more of a defence. The Tories recently interviewed themselves about putting wages and business above people. This shouldn't surprise anyone.

In the 15/16 season he spent £102m across the 2 transfer windows, summer and the winter. He was then sacked in March 2016 for the fat Spanish waiter to arrive.

£69m was in the summer window, sorry I’m 11m short.
Imagine looking forward to a reply on a rivals message board 😂😂😂
