£5billion, a billion for a new stadium,a billion to pay off ALL the known & unknown debt,how much to pay off all the crap players contracts, money to demolish &rebuild it to todays standard,millions for better players,then the Qatar,s quarterly pay back.Not much left.

So I guess the Qatar ownership isnt going to have to follow the months and months of blocks by the PL, looks like its going to just fly through.

On another point i'm not seeing any mention of sports washing with this deal.

Consider the shit that has been written about us and the flack about Mansour spending a billion on us, well these fuckers are talking about a total investment in excess of 10 billion with everything included, our owners could sell up now and make a fortune on their investment the Qatari's wont be able to.

The only reason they are buying the Rags is or the name, it is 100% sports washing and don't let them forget it.

Despite his political connections, already seeing Sheikh Jassim described as a banker by the likes of Dan Roan. That may be true, just as Sheikh Mansour is a businessman but unlikely to be referred to as such.

By contrast, Dan Roan is described as a *anker by those that have crossed paths with him.

Nothing been mentioned about the fit and proper test the premier league do?

Probably give sheikh jism a welcome to the premier league tshirt, a ruffle of the hair and a pat on the arse.

How red mardarse clubs get treated differently playing out live in front of the nation.

I'm still sickened by the new years eve style countdown clock sky sports news seems to have adopted for this takeover shite.

Will be piss funny if the glazers turn round and say nah you're alright we're staying put.

Come on uncle bulgaria or whatever the fuck you're called, don't sell out.

Look at the obstacles Newcastle had to face and the hysterical media coverage.

That 1b for a new stadium will be 2b if it ever happens.

To be fair to the British press they’re still reporting it. It’s gone from the screaming front page outraged headlines for the barcodes to the page 16 side bar article just under the haemorrhoids cream advert in Exchange and Mart for the Qatarags, but its still being reported - don’t be such a cynic!
