Sad to see once respected journalist with socialist ideals (St.George of Caulkin) is doing his best Ostrich impression with all that's going on.

He was clearly being briefed by SPIF for years and wont say anything against the regime.

Probably as they have his passport.

“These are my principles - if you don’t like them I have others” - this quote springs to mind when i think of him and the local politicians. Snakes.

There's a lot happened since i last checked this thread but what I'm gathering is Luke Edwards and the Mag fans have made arses of themselves again.

Just to be a bit serious for a moment.
Been going back and forth wondering about this, and reading some previous posts.
We've seen the nutters with their tea towels etc, and we've seen some reasonably sensible posts from yourself and others, even Mags in Peace occasionally.
Question:
How many of your lot are actually torn like you say, why are you on here trying to persuade us, and what response would you get on your own forum if you were making your case on there?

Mag on Luke Edwards Twitter alleges he’s called Ben Johnson. Edwards alleges he’s threatened to murder him and didn’t like his skull and crossbones image on his threatening Tweet.

Plot being lost and they’ve only been taken over for a week by these hideous people, supported by sycophantic nut jobs in the local media and the vast majority of their local politicians, council members and arrogant fan base. Frightening how money and a chance to buy success without any real effort can blind people to the reality of who they’re getting into bed with.

Every death threat they issue. Every journo that calls them out however distastefully ( mag journos aren’t exactly paragons of virtue) moves their dream farther away. Death threats man. A Geordie Fatwayaye is it?

Hope the fuckers get caught. It’s a good job they aren’t a citizen in KSA pulling shite like that.

May be a deflection tactic as he has morals. He is an arse but maybe he's thought his reputation would go down the pan joining them. 1. Would only be for the money. 2. He would get tortured supporting the murdering bastards.

Fair play to him. I would hope any decent player or manager would refuse them. Pariah club. No one should acknowledge any wins they have.

He’s gone up in my estimation. Out of all of them I thought he would be the most likely to hold his nose. Seems like ive misjudged him. Sorry Brendan. ( you’re still a nob tho )

This takeover has been planned since May 2019 and yet as we speak Bruce is still at the helm. If this was another Man City the appointments throughout the club would already have been made, with the new manager lined up for months.

They’re either going to give him his 1000th game in the premier league as an act of ‘thanks’ or they will sack him on Saturday and create euphoria for Sunday.
My opinion like.

Met up with my mate for a beer and a catch up last night

He is a Burnley fan but lives in the North East and his missus is a season ticket holder for the MAgs so he goes along to some of the games.

His take was that most fans are realistic and expect a couple of years of slow build to get up the league to then challenge for the top tier players.

It will be interesting to see if that is the case as my feeling is if they arent buying player like Harry Kane in the next 2 windows the idiots in their support will start moaning on about the owners and that the Saudi lads will be much less tolerant of this than Ashley was

Let’s face it. The Saudis arent there to make money. And the minute the natives start getting restless I’m sure they will discover a moral compass. At which point the Saudis will dump them at the first opportunity. As soon as the tea towel Taliban stop being useful idiots and revert to being just the usual idiots the Saudis will be gone.

I reckon they'll give him his 1000th game and they'll all be going on about how honourable their new owners are.
