Wor David

Who played for Kevin
Hallowed be thy name
Thy Kingdom come
Thy will be done
For Eddie…
As it was for Kevin

 

Give us this day our first win
And forgive us our hopelessness
For thine is the future
the trophies and the glory…
For Eddie and Amanda
Amen

And so the Lordeth he doth answer

Is it lost on them that in Saudi Arabia, those women would be in trouble while the men wouldnt be able to drink in public like that?

 

They might have all the money, they're still morally bankrupt.

 

Tbf its nice that they are let out for a day.

I can accept them staying up as long as Burnley go down.

Except for us winning the league, nothing would please me more than the Saudi sportswashing project being relegated.

[El Rojo]

It would be brilliant if the other top flight clubs who objected to the takeover refused to sell them any players in the next transfer window. Unlikely, though.

Or make them pay 300 million for the Ox

Nothing to see here. Move along please.

Of course it'll be a fair market price.

Havent a clue how this is going to work. So all the PL clubs will get a say on each others 'new' sponsorship deals, not just newcastle's, to decide it is 'market value'?

 

How do they decide what's new, increased market sponsorship deal for say ourselves, united, arsenal etc when the likes of brighton, palace, burnley and the rest of the smaller 14 clubs now effectively running the PL, get far smaller deals?

 

I tell you, people who opposed the Euro league will regret the day it didnt go through more and more when this stuff starts to bite.

It's only for what are considered related parties. If Google want to give Burnley, Newcastle or ourselves £1bn for a sleeve that's fair game, if it's Saudi olive oil then it will need to be assessed. 

[an tha]

Looks like good news to me....will provide some controls to stop them inflating deals.

 

Easy enough to administer.

 

It's a postive step...although of course not allowing takeovers by likes of these would be better.

[aws]

It'll be hard to enforce unless they've put the onus of proving the sponsorship is at market value on the club rather than vice versa.

Drop them in the middle of Riyadh dressed like that and pissed up, then see how great they think the Saudi’s are.

Newcastle United owners next buy will hand Liverpool long-term boost

0-1 at home to the mighty Cambridge Utd. Got a way to go haven't they?

The argument that it removes all distractions from the relegation battle is a valid one, but a good cup run can also provide some mental relief for players and fans alike. 

 

As it was, the fans didn't seem too pleased that the last 'distraction' has been removed.

[Pete]

Hope they get relegated and become a rich man’s Nottingham Forest (although Forest actually won things). Fuck them.

I had most of the 1st half on. The fans seemed right up for it.

Didn't watch it, but weren't they all booing at the end? Splendid!

Probabaly telling Eddie to get on a flight to Riyadh for his public beheading.
