The hypocrisy in Newcastle regarding the takeover proves what we already knew anyway. Every single town, it's club and fans wanted it to be them when it happened to us. The utter shite and spite they threw at us was ....and is, pure jealousy that it's not them. So STFU for once in your bleating sad lives and celebrate your rare wins over us like you've won the world cup you jealous Muppets

I misheard the radio news a couple of days ago and just heard: 'Saudi Arabia takeover of garble garble United goes through' and I actually, for a moment, assumed it to be Manchester Utd.

Then I remembered the Saudis had tried to buy into Newcastle awhile ago and it all made sense.

However, I then had this thought: why Newcastle? Why haven't they bought Manchester Utd. I bet they could have offered the Glazers an offer they couldn't refuse and we all have to concede that Man U are the bigger club and consequently it would achieve whatever they want to achieve (sporstwashing, I think its called) more successfully.

Or would Man Utd fans oppose such a deal due to the dodgy human rights issues?

Another positive of this takeover is the Saudi's were one of the few parties that could have tempted to buy the cash cow that is the Trafford red Socks.

Looks like the Glaziers are in for the long term with Little Olie in tow, exciting times!

In a few months we'll be commemorating the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday, which we're still resisting taking responsibility for. We recently commemorated the 200th anniversary of the Peterloo massacre. Can we hold our hands up and say they're clean?

When we hosted the World Cup in 1966, 900 years after we effectively became a sovereign nation, it was against the law to engage in a homosexual act and the police actively set out to entrap people into these. Yet we talk about gay rights in a country that's culturally far more socially conservative than we ever were in the Victorian era (and probably always will be).

I'm sure it hasn't escape your notice, as it's been all over the news, that two women were recently murdered when they were out and minding their own business. What happened to their rights as women?

And look at the clubs leading the moral indignation over this.

Liverpool - whose owners have been convicted of wholesale cheating in the other sport they operate in, who knowingly stole our data, who have the names of two convicted money-laundering institutions on their shirt and whose fans murdered 37 people they didn't agree with.

United - whose ultimate finances are hidden in a tax haven, accept sponsorship from the state-owned Russian airline, a regime that routinely murders journalists, whose owners put nothing into their club and it's local community and who've saddled them with debt they never had before.

Arsenal - whose shirts implore you to 'Visit Rwanda', where they have one of the most repressive regimes on earth and whose billionaire owner also puts nothing in but takes money out in "consultancy fees".

And all of those clubs (and others) owned by citizens of a country where their police force routinely humiliates and even murders black people who have committed no offences. And where they allow their citizens to walk around the streets with automatic rifles which they use to kill people indiscriminately, including young schoolchildren.

You get the picture?

Overall great post.

The bit about modern day Rwanda is not true though. The genocide will never be forgotten, but the Country is no longer defined by that period of history.

Amanda is no angel, she has plenty to tell of the great and good.

In my experience, the richer and higher the class, the more perverted and weird and criminally minded they are.

Speculation and guilt by association of the worse kind. Has there ever been any hint that she knew about Epstein and was involved.

Has there fuck.

Everyone knew what he was up to, just like everyone knew what Jimmy Savile and Prince Andrew got up to, but they were untouchable because of association.

If you had done to Victoria Roberts what Prince Andrew (allegedly )did , you would now be serving a long prison sentence and you would not be going anywhere near the showers, do you think the pervert prince will even have to go to courts, never mind jail?
 
Travelling yesterday I had radio 2 on ( age thing ! ) and that Vine bloke was on about Newcastle take over. A Newcastle fan was on saying why doesnt the press/media have ago about American's human rights, the way their police treat non whites etc. They all carry guns to shoot each other. That America is always going into other countries to try and enforce their way of live.

Personally as I have said before the ESL that the American owners are the biggest threat to our game

Anyone buying the Rags has to contend with the debt they're carrying even before they start, and it's more than the Saudis have paid for Toon. Then there's the crumbling Meccano set
to fettle, and that won't be cheap by any stretch, so even though they're extremely rich, they'd be stumping up a kings ransom just for the privilege.

Every single club from a Sunday league pub side wants success and trophies and those that say they don't are lying as they know they have no chance. I've experienced both and I know which I prefer. Morals and principles only apply to those not given a chance to have them tested, it's all they have to at least try and claim some moral high ground as the fifth goal hits their net when playing one of the top four. There will of course always be the odd pompous weirdo like Conn but they are in a very small minority

You may may to update yourself on the recent enforced disappearance and show trial of Paul Rusesabagina before making such a wide sweeping statement.

It would not come cheap but it's a cash cow however much we like to pretend.

The Saudis could have bought them, new stadium etc and still made a fortune, it's a huge positive that they did not.

The Glazier are milking them and as long as they do, it will be difficult for them to compete, especially with Olie at the wheel.

Not sure whether it has been mentioned but the Football Supporters Association have issued a statement about the takeover. Just the opening blurb is bad with stuff like 'many Supporters throughout the game ....have expressed concern about ther roles of nation states in the ownership of clubs and the impact of their human right violations'.
'Supporters put in an impossible position as billionaire owners pass clubs from one to another.... clubs have become the plaything of individuals or regimes with shocking human rights records'.
No mention of which clubs they mean but we can guess that and also those they have chosen to turn a blind eye with their dodgy owners, sponsors and riotous fans. Do these prats who claim to represent all fans at all levels want to go back to the days when United plus one other club won everything because they were richest and boasted about it?
Just in case anyone missed that the FSA is a bunch of anorak wearing weirdos, they announce this year's football awards by reminding us of last year's winners:

POTY - Ratface - Bruno
Commentator of the Year - Martin Tyler !!!
TV/Radio Pundit of the Year - Ian Wright.

It is concerning that the lies and misinformation pumped out from or via the usual suspects does get believed by neutrals but its never challenged so it would, wouldn't it?

Does anyone know anyone who's a member of the FSA ?

I agree, very good post but I completely disagree about the State and the murdered women. In all societies crime exists, the punishments are different but murder, racism, theft, corruption, etc will exist until the end of time.
