    Oooh, tell me more about this potentially on the brink of administration you confidently mention?

    You’re just another scruffy plastic gobshite aren’t you? We are at our lowest ebb and still we occupy your tiny mind, what a sad life you have.

    In view of some of the names like Gareth Bale being linked with the new regime at Newcastle ...

    ... it's surprising that they've extended the contracts of 31 year old Carroll and Manquillo.

    "Newcastle United’s takeover saga has been cast into further uncertainty after taking an unexpected twist on Tuesday when the Saudi Arabian government permanently barred the Premier League’s Qatar-based Middle East broadcast partner from operating in the kingdom. BeIN’s £500m deal with the Premier League runs until 2022 and there is now no legal way for anyone in Saudi Arabia to watch England’s top tier till then."

    I'm a skeptic of this whole takeover. Too many stumbling blocks as far as I can see. Obviously, I hope I am wrong but it all seems to good to be true. As for speculation, everybody knows the same information (the square root of f all!). What I think is if this doesn't go through, we will lose ASM and will hurtle down the league and wind up relegated. There will be no comeback this time

    IF the Saudi Government, or indeed any other Saudi organisation approached The Premier League or Sky with an offer to buy the rights soley for broadcasting in The Kingdom, that might just solve the problem. Some pf this money could go to the Qatar company, under some guise to save face, and they in turn could withdraw their original complaint.
    In Saudi Arabia they could even promise to show the games for free.
    This would, in theory, appeal to The P/L executives who could hide behind the excuse of getting the Game to a wider audience.

    That would just leave the matter of the murdered reporter.
    I would guess that there is no EVIDENCE that links this murder to any official orders.

    I'm just floating an idea you understand.
    Imagining what a devious mind might come up with.<devil>

    No cans then <laugh>

    Tbf they've dodged a bullet although majority of the fans wont see it.

    Horrible scum bags those lot and they are an actual regime.

    Ashley must he laughing his cock off with the non refundable 17m deposit. Hes a very very clever man.

    Wish he owned us <cheers>
