The PIF / Chelsea stuff is a bit of nonsense really. Doesn’t even make sense why Newcastles owners would help a ‘rival’

sorry but that’s rubbish. Brighton have played players who have lost their license, been arrested etc

I still think they're not guaranteed to be safe. They have a better team, but not sure how much better. Some proven PL players + a few foreign players with no PL experience who need to pick up wins straight away. Newcastle last 8 fixtures are: Spurs Wolves Leicester Norwich Liverpool Man City...

31 year old Kieran Trippier come for the longer term vision. Sure he'll still be playing for them in 4 years time

You have to laugh at Mike Ashley giving Steve Bruce a £8M sacking compensation clause just before the Saudi deal was finalised :lolol:

Just press talk. They have a bunch of finance people running the club with no football hierachy. Their training ground is a shit hole and allegedly they use wheely bins for ice baths ! Can't see any serious players going there until the whole thing is improved really - from a proper structure...

Super Eddie Howe rumoured to be in talks. Rather them than us

Indeed. I remember a few years ago we were setting up some channels with new partners in the Middle East. Lots of pleasant conversations over email and we went to visit them in Qatar, inviting my Regional lead who happened to be a woman. Much awkwardness (we had expected it was possible) when we...

But what's her role? And shes not a football person. The problem I see they have is seemingly no plan, they have no structure in place on the football side. How are they going to hire a manager? Can you imagine the interview process with a bunch of finance people running it

Will Staveley stick around? I always thought she was the deal broker, probably gets some structure in place and then presumably walks off with a big pile of cash?

There is 2 sides of this to me, whilst the investment is certainly up for discussion - I am surprised the Geordies are acting so classless as to waving around saudi flags, putting middle eastern head dress on etc. How many of them were on Facebook sharing stores if councils forcing people to...

Already in The Sun [emoji849]

Trevor Birch of the EFL once explained what the fit and proper test was (note - it’s not even called that) it is basically only really to ensure they know who is going to be taking over, ensuring they have funds and how they came to get those funds - from memory. On the flip side it’d be...

The horse punchers slagged Mike Ashley off for his practices as chairman of sports direct - 0 hour contracts, the way staff are treated etc. Yet now it’s ok to turn a blind eye to an oppressive regime, a country where women are third rare citizens, you’d be hung for being gay and all round...

Deal complete. Blimey
