Not at all. We all know the yanks can’t be trusted. However, It’s doesn’t mean I have to side and agree with Newcastle or it’s fans.

As for the Newcastle fans! Can’t stand them myself so I hope they stay shit for a long long time and win fook all. Sanctimonious twits.

It is dressed up as the big bad Middle East v the moral crusading west. White v anyone who is not white. Politics at play using sport. Don’t fall for any of it. Using the greatest tool at their disposal…football tribalism to get you to think a certain way.

The Everton’s, Newcastle’s of this world will continue to write letters and demand punishment because they can’t compete on the field so they resort to off-field collusion. We have no friends so fuck em all.

Ashley is not doing such a bad job ;)
 
For the good of the game you have to hope that Ashley manages to expose the PL for the utter contempt and bias they have shown in all of this and who the cohorts are.

There seems to be fairly strong evidence that the PL broke their own confidentiality rules to tip others off and have used everything they can to delay matters and effectively stop the takeover. They’ve then attempted to keep the CAT hearing a private hearing and today’s hearing has had precious little reporting. Can you imagine if the PL had threatened to throw Man U or Liverpool out of the league for wanting to be sold? Instead they can announce they’ve signed up for a Super League, screw their fans and the PL and ultimately get no punishment at all.

I’ve no love of the Saudis but there’s plenty “dodgy” owners out there but they don’t represent any threat to the status quo.

At this point in time I think most fans don’t believe that any takeover will happen and as much as we detest Ashley, we hope he wins substantial compensation and the reasons are made public. God knows what the PL has hiding in the cupboards. He’ll not invest any of it in the club and we’ll still be shit but hopefully it might help other clubs who may get in a similar position.
 
I've never had a problem with the Geordies. Indeed have had many a good session up there with a few pints before games and far too many after the match.
After we beat them in the penultimate game of THAT season many of their fans came over to us in the way back to the station wishing us well and hoping we would win the league.
Decent bunch of fans in my experience of meeting them up there, at Maine Road and at the Etihad.
Hope they get a good result here.

This is a good post. The battle is not with Newcastle it's with the corrupt PL and if Newcastle can expose that then I'll be delighted.
I'd also have no problem if the Saudis or anyone else took them over and injected a load of money.
 
"The Premier League "abused its position" after it was "improperly influenced" by other clubs in the build-up to blocking a Saudi Arabian-led takeover of Newcastle United, a tribunal has heard"

Presumably, we'll run the same argument in Court when the PL finds us "guilty" of whatever it is they can concoct. Let's hope Newcastle win as it won't look good for the PL's processes
 
I've just been reading the coverage of this in the main papers today and I think almost unbelievably, the "big 6" have made people despise them and their scheming ways so much that a lot of the coverage is at least leaning Newcastle's way, despite everyone's objection to Saudi Arabia.

Sorry what is'everyones objection to Saudi '. I have no objection what so ever.
You may quote the murdered journalist but I would retort with the recent U.S drone murder of innocent Afghan civilians. The US are probably the biggest murders of innocents going. If the Saudis ate so bad why is every government in the western world queueing up to do deals with them.

Premier League 'abused position' in Newcastle takeover, tribunal hears

The Premier League was "improperly influenced" by other clubs before blocking the takeover of Newcastle United, a tribunal hears.

Whatever people think of Newcastle fans it is pretty obvious that they have been totally stitched up here. It has been revealed that contact was made between other PL clubs (and Bein Sports) and the PL before the PL threatened to "stop Newcastle playing football." It is very reminiscent of what happened to us with UEFA.
The PL is supposed to be independent and act for all its clubs not just a cosy cartel. I think it is very safe to assume that City were not one of those involved in this corruption (because that is what it is). It is also equally safe to assume that the owners of LFC and MUFC were definitely involved. So why isn't this story headline news in our media and SKY Sports?

You know why people object to Saudi Arabia owning Newcastle, and you know why governments are desperate to engage with don't play stupid because it's not half as amusing as you think it is.

If my government, Labour, Conservative or who ever can deal with them then I have no issues with a football club being owned by them.
IF I had my way they would be international pariahs after the Kashogi murder but I knew nothing would happen. They are allies in a very murky Middle East so they can do what they want.
