Fuck Off.

Anybody in the press or on twitter complaining about saudi money can fuck off. That ship sailed long ago. if this is true I hope we drown in cash and steam roller every media darling club that the wankstain pundits jizz over, all the time speaking up for Ashley and his cronies and gaslighting his criminal mismanagement of our club. The man is a piece of shit in human form and I will be totally delighted when he fucks off for good. I don’t care about the saudis, Id rather it was that than venkys chicken or owen oyston.

Didn’t take long for people to get onto the bloke mention in the articles wikipedia In seriousness it’s amazing to read the professional way everything is being set up with this from what it seems. This is going to be a massive difference to the absolute whopper we’ve had as owner for the last 13 years.

I live in Manchester and work with loads of city fans. They don’t hate us in general, they think little of us. They have a regional rival like we do. They have though had the time of their lives since been bought and after years of utter shite. If the deal goes through and we get half of what city have had we would be buzzing, and not just for the football team. City redeveloped a large part of east Manchester and it’s unrecognisable. One of the best grounds I’ve been to too.

Imagine if this did happen. The face of Phil Thompson and Merson on soccer Saturday. The sour faced old cunts. Mind you that's if Merson makes it through the lockdown. He's currently in his backgarden counting how many blades of grass he has after a bet with the guy in his bathroom mirror

You must be gutted. Good. You sad cunt

True, we'll need someone to clean Mbappé's boots.

Gene’s looking well.

RTG is trying to convince itself that if this happens, the rivalry doesnt exist anymore. It changes everything, we're not the same club, so all the shoeings they get from us going forward won't count and history stopped The fear is palpable.

they didn't fancy trudging through the 2010s with the loyal toontastic footsoldiers

Welcome, Erling.

Imagine telling the Sovereign Prince of Saudi Arabia he’s not a fit and proper person. They’d never find the body.

Richard Keys?

what is there to be pessimistic about? you just need to look past the new owners' penchant for stoning, persecuting religious minorities, executing peaceful activists, murdering journalists and oppressing women. we are about to become the wealthiest club in the world.

Remember standing on the terraces of Level 7 back in 2015, eating cherry tomatoes and duck pizza. Best days of my lifetime.

Can’t we just rename it Christmas Tree: Cunt?

They get invited to the Saudi embassy to ‘talk it over’.

...and his teeth

Gaping hole in his argument tbf.

This is the takeover thread. Dont try that shit again.

If it is, you can guarantee that Sunderland will find the guy.

Tbh, if took all the Saudi money out of London all you’d be left with is the Russian oligarchs

Me, letting the hate flow through me and embracing the Dark Side…

Imagine SJP is going to be mental again. So many happy smiling faces. The ground full again the massive flag in the Gallowgate. No SD signs & no Ashley, Charnley, or Bruce in sight. It'll be fantastic

Here! You! Aye, you! Fuck off!

Well, well, well...

I’m impressed you managed to type this one-handed.

Lockdown, impending furlough and the kids driving me insane. Had to find somewhere to escape to...

This. It should also getting the occasional bump because every week since trudging through the 80s could be the week that CT gets the hang of this football lark.

I think anybody who pays any attention to media critics is mental. The pundits love to slag off NUFC, trolling out the same old lazy cliches about unrealistic expectations and what a great owner Mike is etc etc. It’s nailed on they’ll bang on about the negatives because they feel the need to put us in our place, and even more than that, they love to see our fans being downtrodden and downcast. I think its something that dates back to the Keegan days and having ‘ideas above our station’. Well fuck them, I hope this happens and they choke on the tidal wave of Saudi money. I couldn’t care less what the likes of Merse, Dennis, Tommo, Rio or Hippo Head think about it, they’re just whiney wind and piss merchants.

That might as well say "What will happen to all of my sources if a #nufctakeover was completed?" Also, the grammar

Rafa 3/1 to be manager next season...he’s contracted in China till December 2021 🤔 https://www.oddschecker.com/insight/football/20200415-bookies-believe-steve-bruce-will-not-be-in-charge-of-newcastle-next-season-amid-takeover-talks

Isn't that pretty much just what Stewart Donald is? Came in all positive, drinking with the fans etc. then when it goes to shit he hides and claims he wants to sell.

Why are they even worrying about that? They’re 2 divisions below us and show absolutely no signs of rectifying that anytime soon. It’ll not be long until they start thinking since this happened to us it’ll happen to them as well. Like Monkey Fist says, this is going to completely demolish them the 6 in a row craic is aging worse than milk that’s sat in the sun for a month. I agree with what ewerk said in response to the worry this might not be a Man City moment btw. I would also add that since they have a real dislike/rivalry of the UAE and Qatar I can’t see them wanting to sit back and watch sides owned by these rivals like Man City and PSG outdo a side they own. I also think Man City had/maybe still has other investors that own a percentage of the club besides the Abu Dhabi group, if that’s a reference point we are going to use for this takeover. Again agree with ewerks point regarding having the Rueben brothers experience of the area for their expanded investment, with Staveleys percentage being her demand for helping broker the deal since she missed out on getting an investment in Man City and watched their value skyrocket.

I’m listening to this, in solidarity with poor Penfold who’ll be out on his ear.

Ffs, we’re going to be lifting the title in an empty stadium.

This goes through and it makes Benitez one of the clubs most important figures ever. It was obvious that him coming here and talking the clubs potential up turned Stavely on probably those involved here. You have to bring him back as your first move

Well that will need explaining. IIRC they were attached to Stavely's previous attempts to buy so the Saudis have maybe just accepted that and don't mind them having a minority stake. There was also talk that the Saudis wanted a regeneration scheme in the city similar to what Man City did. In that case the Reuben's experience in property would be very handy.

I think if anyone deserves this then it’s me.

17 lines in this sentence. 12 of which are superfluous. Must try harder Master Clark
