Just normal people, a nice bloke along our road. Frustrated by years of Ashley, I just think he’s someone who doesn’t analyse sad things about the world (so wouldn’t be suited to nsc :D). There’s a lot of it about. We have a Ukrainian refugee in our family, she recently posted to her 200 UK...

How many Geordies gave up their ST’s when Saudi Arabia took over? Once the takeover was back on, remaining ST’s (they had spares from folk who’d given up in protest against Ashley) sold out within hours. Telling us all we need to know about 99% of football supporters.

That's my instinct too. A tiny few would join you to be replaced by silverware hungry newbies, the rump left would justify it with: a) Well, everyone else is doing it. b) I blame the PL, it's not my responsibility. c) I want to see silverware, I'm entitled to that. d) Conveniently .... we...

We have NUFC supporting friends, decent people, who absolutely love the Saudi turnover. Newcastle supporters almost as one are cock a hoop, the attitude is “Our rightful turn has come, watch everyone get jealous as we start winning the lot”.

The Saudi government via their fund, took control of their 4 main clubs today, paving the way to sign Messi, Benzema and others on £171m a year each. NUFC are owned by the same fund. I wonder if it’s crossed their devious minds to later loan stars to NUFC on modest charges that don’t impact...

The UAE are part of that coalition carrying out mass murder in Yemen. https://www.hrw.org/world-report/2019/country-chapters/united-arab-emirates Dissidents are sent to prison after 5 minute trials. Homosexual acts carry a 10 year sentence. Females committing adultery face sentences up to...

It sums up football supporters in the modern game in this country (and France/Italy). Supporters will do literally anything to win trophies, scrambling over human rights abuses/dead innocents, to get their hands on silverware ultimately. Mansour/Citeh is an identical scenario, but the good...

'She's' booked another facelift.

Heads will roll in Jeddah for that result, after being held at home by the lowest budget EPL club.

The old 'circle the wagons' zzzzzz motivational tool. How about not pretending to be injured and attempting to score more goals?

A couple of weeks ago many posters still thought the Saudis were getting relegated. Have any views on that relegation changed?

Note to self - keep avoiding foreign resorts like that.

A talentless choir with a shit chant, led by a couple of old bruisers.

BBC1 just showed the Cambridge winner. I hope when they go back to the studio there’s time for arrogant Shearer to squirm. My guess is a faux “well played Cambridge”, thus avoiding talking about the sportswashers.

Eventually money will tell, NUFC will unfortunately compete at the very top of the game. Chelski and ManC were nothing 30 years ago. My only hope is that Howe is sacked by that time. Seeing that smirking, sly face after bought wins, would be irritating.

So, Eddie Howe has the gig. This time conquering his latitude sickness (the aversion to jobs north of Dorset). The salary and transfer war-chest just might’ve assuaged those fears. NUFC are crying out for a defence. His brand of football appeared to be lose 4-1 or win 4-3. I wonder if...

1978/79, 1979/80 ….

She has a very famous forebear, a WW1 hero.

Locadia - £27.5m. You know it makes sense Staveley.

I think you’re right initially, they’ll probably get through a couple of managers and mistakenly buy lazy mercenary ‘names’ (Pogba types, but not quite that level). A vastly expensive player rebuilding required, to me Wilson and Saint-Maximin seem the only the cert’s to survive.
