Newcastle Utd (and Viz)

Obviously you still want Everton to win, and there's the whole social aspect of discussing Everton's ups and downs, both on here and in real life. But other than that, as i said yesterday, modern football is a load of bs. I just feel very sickened, at the thought of a club whoring itself with Saudi blood money tbh.

Oh well the aussie rules season was very enjoyable this year, and the ice hockey season is starting next week as well. This corporate stinking pile of bs of a sport, is totally and utterly not worthy of the time and emotional investment. I love Everton, but i hate the modern day incarnation of this sport.

Got contacts up in Edinburgh who support Hearts/Hibs.

Way its going I'll be watching the SPL the way English football is whoring itself out to murderers and terrorist supporting regimes.
 

Honestly only looking at stuff now. Can anyone give me a synopsis. Newcastle got bought. They keep mentioning on sky ifnits found arabia is running tlit.they get kicked out the league. Etc.. all sounds dodge
Nufc is bought by the Saoudi state. Unlimited funds blah blah blah speculation speculation, horse punchers... That's the short story.
@EverTheOptimist lost the plot and got banned.
Our packleader FB92 would do ms Staveley
 
Like @catcherintherye says it could go one of two ways they want a Plaything or an investment long term.

However another monied club thrown into an already congested top half of the table isnt good for us regardless if they turn into a Man City or another Villa/Spurs type club.

Be interesting if they do a naming rights deal on their stadium as will give us an idea on what Usmanov/USM can get away with at BMD.

Theres a finite number of top players out there. If they become another City (which I doubt they will) they will just replace one of the teams at the top.

We are also evidence, that if you go flashing money around thoughtlessly it doesnt always work. Wolves tried it too.
 
The fit and proper persons test must be a absolute farce. “How much torture have you committed on your own people mate?” “Just a hundred thousand or so, but they were mainly women’s rights advocates” “Ah, that’s not a problem then, but I am a bit upset by BeIN sports…”
