Without agenda, a simple question.
Do you honestly not see, in the cold light of day, why all and sundry are questioning the morals and ethics of both your club, and more poigniantly your fans, of which you are one?
I think from reading your posts, that you are not a knuckledragging oaf that has remortgaged to buy out Lakelands tea towel production, so you must realise, surely?

Posted this myself but should be repeatedly bumped. Skewers the many pathetic defences we've heard. Particularly at the end, talking of how Newcastle fans are becoming unwitting PR puppets for the Saudi regime, jumping to their defence. Essentially they have purchased an army of political activists in North east England, to spread their word, even if the activists don't realise it yet

As an aside, the main HITC sport channel is run by a shouty shouty squeaky Irish Newcastle fan making meme videos and using it as a personal Newcastle blog. It's mental really, the side channel HITC Sevens is so much more professional in presentation

I wasn't over the moon with Ashley of late but I appreciated what he did, even if he did make massive errors as well as sulky pet lip digs in a teet for tat with certain fan groups.

If it went teets up and this regime came along with promises, I'd guess that many of the fans would be over the moon and argue exactly like is being argued on here.

I thought it was a light projection? 🤔

Of course I understand the outrage and I would hazard a guess that a small portion of those with that outrage will have no other agenda and will believe their morals are nailed tight shut.
But most people's morals are subjective, as I mentioned many times.

I also mentioned that, had this been the other way around and sunderland or another club outside of the elite got taken over, the majority of fans from those clubs would still be following their club and still be massively excited at the potential of it.

If you want to argue that from your own personal stance then fair enough. I am doing it from mine and my honest opinion.

I will maintain it comes down to a lot of jealousy among football fans.

I very much doubt it. When it comes to politics in the UK, Neville is most outspoken. But the greed of the majority of professional footballers means the human rights abuses will be conveniently minimised or side-lined while we line our pockets with the Devil's riches.

I fully expect this to be the case. I’d be amazed if he actually expressed any concern in any meaningful way.
How Sky square their support for this with their quest for global inclusivity escapes me for now.

Newcastle United has went plastic so it doesn't really matter who comes in. The bigger players we do get (assuming a bank roll) will be coming for the money and potential easy route to a cup....but mainly money, not for the love of the club, so journeyman or men, it matters not from this point.

It's all about, if you can't beat them, join them. Football was sold to the devil a long time ago. I'm sure that's not lost on you.

Requote from another thread I posted earlier.

"It may help you to understand our viewpoint, if you firstly erase from your mind that we are jealous.
WE ARE NOT JEALOUS.
We have our own wealthy benefactor, who, whilst not as wealthy as yours, easily has the wherewithal to finance our passage from League 1 back to the top flight. Once there, he is comfortably wealthy enough to sustain our club in those surroundings.
At that point, we as supporters, will not have to scratch around for weasely examples of everyone else's links to murderous regimes to justify our ownership and management.
It will make your life much less stressful to simply accept that the rest of the Football world is forever going to question your clubs morals and ethics, and treat with disdain any victories and trophies you may collect on your sordid journey".

f***ing hell man. That there wasn't an update about Qatar to the level of the Saudi takeover should show that whilst 2 wrongs don't make a right these fuckers have been bought by the most evil bastard alive.

Hasn't that already happened though? The UAE bought Man City as a Sportswashing exercise and it appears to have worked.

Also, re the brand, the Saudis already have links with Man Utd, Spurs, West Ham were keen on a Saudi takeover.

Personally think it's fanciful to think the other Premier League teams are objecting to this takeover on moral grounds. They're protecting their own interests, as is their right.

"The UAE" didn't buy Man City

Love of the club? They are professional's.

The vast majority of pro's don't really support any particular club. They may develop an attachment to one that they had a successful and enjoyable spell at.

A manager doesn't care if a player doesn't "love" a club, he just wants a professional who will give 100%.

not sure how anyone can not change their views as a supporter knowing what your owners have done / are doing. Maybe thats just me, but i couldn't just ignore it and carry on supporting as i’ve always done
