Newcastle Utd (and Viz)

Yes all billionaires are obvuously corrupt - but you've got to draw the line somewhere and I think it should be quite a bit before direct ownership by a warmongering state who organises killings and subjugates women/gay people.

Im saying people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones.

Im quite impressed how you and Big Oil can separate bad people, do you share the spreedsheet?

Rapist = Not bad
Beheading = Very bad

Never said Usmanov was a holier than thou character MG, I'm focused on them literally killing a journalist and pretending they didn't while everyone knew they did

This is a bit like scumbag neighbours winning the lottery.

Social services and the police will continue to knock on their door.

No both those things are bad. But it's quite stupid to act like they're the same level of bad. Developed societies do not act like they are the same level of bad.

So im not part of a developed society cos I dont have a level of acceptable morality?

 

[Runub]

lol There’s fans celebrating outside st James’!

Yep. Some dressed as Arabs....how original

 

[MikeH72]

Bit of an eye opener reading some of the posts on here before this news broke. Red faces

So bizarre that you’re celebrating this because it makes you look right on the internet 2 years ago.

Is that worse or better than spending 27m on Alex Iwobi?

Am backing them to get relegated this season

You just admitted that life is black and white. Murder and stealing a crayon is the same to you

Hope they are waving £20 notes around as well.
Classy that one.

Maybe Ashley can reopen Woolworths with the money he will get here.

He sorted Debenhams out, I seem to remember.

As we've proven, having money to spend isn't worth much if you don't spend it properly

We could already have been in a very good position before this acquisition had taken place if we hadn't thrown money away on a number of expensive mistakes

If Newcastle kick on from this, then so be it. If it has the beneficial side effect of us demanding better from those in leadership positions at our own club then all the better

Agreed.

I'm going to say if you're incapable of looking at anything with any degree of nuance then you probably don't have a very developed mind. Sorry Goat but this is just a completely ludicrous line of argument you're peddling.

And just to address the Trumpian whataboutism you're also trying to throw around no it isn't great that Usmanov seems to be at least somewhat involved in our club and no I don't like that sport is largely run by billionaire money men who profit off it more than anything but it is still not the same as a regime with massive human rights issues getting involved. That is just worse.

Ah well, they will be off to the January sales

We get Sean/Matty Longstaff
