Newcastle Utd (and Viz)

They’ve raised a grand total of £820 mate.

Their entire premise is legally illiterate.

Hold on, I petition that got over 100,000 signatures equates to just £800 quid? It's alomst as if the 100,000 signatures are a load of rubbish, duplicates and paid for accounts from the Middle East isn't it?

The real level of support, if you ask people to donate just £1 each to the cause is about 800 fans. A tiny minority of the fanbase making an enormous noise.

Story
In October 2017 Newcastle United was put up for sale. In April 2020 a sale was agreed with a consortium led by Amanda Staveley and including the PIF fund from Saudi Arabia. The deal collapsed on July 30th 2020.
The deal was presented to the governing body the EPL for approval under the criteria of their fit and proper owners test.
The EPL were obliged to apply fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory rules and criteria and adopt swift decision-making procedures. The EPL chose to delay this process and after more than 17 weeks of indecision without any judgement the buyers withdrew their offer.
The fans believe that member clubs acted unlawfully, and collectively agreed to boycott our club. We understand that they did this after being encouraged to do so by other partners including beIN Sports who themselves held a vested commercial interest.
This led to Newcastle supporters feeling discriminated against.
There appears an underlying determination to delay or prevent the takeover of our club, which in itself is unlawful.
We‘d hoped the intervention of 40 MP’s, the PM and the Ombudsman would see movement but today we are still left without answers. As fans we feel this has left us with little option other than make a legal challenge.
The takeover promised so much for our area, namely challenging the ‘top six” clubs both on and off the field, investment in our city and the feel good factor that competing in football brings a region.
However, today we feel that Richard Masters and his associates are determined to stop this from happening. As such our fans have asked for a campaign to stand up and legally challenge this position. Wor Fund has been created for this purpose and will continue until such a takeover is granted or a court rules otherwise.
All fully audited funds surplus to this legal challenge will be equally shared by two popular Newcastle charities, including the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation.
Thank you for becoming a Wor Funder and joining our campaign for fairness!

OMG lol lol lol lol lol

I mean in law, you have no legal right to be in the top 6. Good luck convincing a judge, a no mark yo-yo club deserves a right to be challenging for trophies.

Good god thats a load of drivel isn't it.And they wonder why prominent people won't put their name to this stuff, they'd be open to counter litigation with the nonsensical claims they are making.
