Ram-Alf Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 8 hours ago, Ted McMinn Football Genius said: Don’t know why, but something about Amanda Stavely has alarm bells ringing for me. Ive seen her interviewed on TV and heard her on Talksport, she comes across as quite arrogant, impolite and self serving. How as an English woman (with all the equal rights she has enjoyed throughout her life) can be associated with and be the spokeswoman of the people she represents simply astounds me. ??????? I think NUFC may now be dancing with the devil in more ways than one. A Millionairess in her own right, She's got where she is with not being very nice, She's in it for the Loot and nowt else, Football is going further down a very dark path, State sanctioned Murder by the 80% shareholder of the company that's took over the Bar Codes. The BBC has asked the Government to disclose the details under the freedom of information act on what the talks were about between the UK Government and the Saudis...the BBC recieved a heavily redacted copy of the 2 meetings, They didn't want to sour relations between the 2 Countries...Shocking! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-58840820 DCFC Kicks, Ted McMinn Football Genius and uttoxram75 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Tup Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I find the Newcastle takeover both infuriating and depressing in equal measure. How on earth is a regime who commits genocide on a defenceless nation like Yemen and stones to death women and children from its own country let alone has public beheadings, allowed to buy a football club in England. Fit and proper person my arse. Mel Morris is an arrogant ******** yet is being treated as if he is the one committing war crimes. It is an utter disgrace.

richinspain Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Wouldn't it be fun if one of these mega mega rich groups bought say Burton Albion or Doncaster Rovers, and then won the Champions League in front of their 2000 loyal fans?

JoetheRam Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) Morality has not existed in football since...? Can't welcome worker exploiters, leveraged buyouts, gambling companies, property developers, investment bankers, oil men and newspaper owners but get all outraged by Sovereign Wealth funds taking over. Either they're all wrong or they're all acceptable. Personally, I find them all equally horrible and long for the day that it either all blows up or fans "seize the means of production" and run all the clubs themselves. I kind of pity the Newcastle fans - so desperate for success and so fed up of Mike Ashley (who I cannot believe people want here - I'd rather we were liquidated) that they're welcoming the Saudi's with open arms (pun intended). But then again, fair play to them for still being so invested in the shitshow that is top flight football that they care if they win trophies or not. Ducking Neoliberalism.

Mostyn6 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 The way their fans have treated managers disgusts me. I hope these new owners are nutjobs who fill the team with their sons and nephews and the team just gets whacked 8-0 weekly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be quite funny to hear their fans have to try an explain and justify a load of useless Saudi players being on their books rather than mbappe.

People continually bang on about what great fans Newcastle have - no, they have a lot of fans, not great ones. They used to worship Andy Carroll - he didn’t demand to leave or refuse to play (Harry Kane anyone?) but left Newcastle when they decided to cash in on him - and yet the first time he went back they all booed him… I saw some of them quoted this morning that they’d “got their club back” - not sure where they thought it had gone - at least Ashley turned up to watch them even if he wasn’t willing or able to pump in the big money needed to make them competitive. Quite how having a remote group with extremely dodgy views on human rights in charge rather than Ashley is “getting your club back” I’m not sure….

Day Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 If we was Newcastle, there would be similar celebrations albeit on a smaller scale, let's not try and deny it. When the Michael Dell, the fake Shiekh we're linked with buying us things, some were getting a little carried away. They are the latest chosen ones, can't see why they shouldn't enjoy it. We can't even handle losing a game to Rotherham so to sit here an point fingers at Newcastle who have had a sniff at the top and want more, just seems a little bit hypocritical.

At times that wasn't unrealistic or improbable! I think there is certainly a case to be made for Newcastle fans having delusions of grandeur. Us too, but to a lesser extent, I'd argue.
