I heard Greizmann is hot favourite 😂.... But I don't think Mbappe fancies it as too cold
 
Sounds like a good idea. I would bring in Fat Ronaldo as Director of Football and Ronaldinho as Assistant Manager as well. In fact I'd only employ people with 'Ronald' somewhere in their name. Gouge out the eyes of anyone who didn't.

Ronald McDonald as sports nutritionist.
 
The Saudis are a vile state and should not get to bask in reflected praise, or glory by pumping money into a community institution. But who's really to blame for allowing it? The government, the PL, the new owners and even Mike Ashley. So if the criticism from other fans and the media were directed at those groups it'd be easier for Newcastle fans to resist the urge to leap to the clubs' defence. But like I said, it's easier to splash a picture of a daft lad in a headscarf on the back page, under a headline declaring something like 'Newcastle fans warm welcome for the murderers of Khashoggi'. That's better copy.
You're a reasonable sort, so I'm sure you can see why months of what appear to be quite a few Newcastle fans mounting campaigns on social media, writing to MPs and the Prime Minister, lobbying the Premier League, going down to London to protest, trying to get in to Premier League buildings in order to try and get the takeover to happen make it harder for other fans and the media to absolve 'the fans' (recognising that those weren't all fans but they were a sizeable group) from criticism. Yes, the government and PL allowed it, but many NUFC supporters worked really hard to try and push them in to allowing it.
