  1. I'm really not trying to upset anyone but genuinely, lads, the idea that this takeover is still in some way a going concern is completely in your heads. Literally nothing out there has pointed to the idea that the consortium still exists and is pursuing the takeover. It's complete fantasy stuff. Why are you doing this to yourselves? On some level you must know you're setting yourselves up for more guaranteed disappointment? It's honestly really bewildering and sad at this point. Please just wake up. Please. Please.
  2. This is Billy Pilgrim's ITK. If true then we know that Ashley, Pochettino and the directors of the PIF all require food for sustenance. Coincidence? Unlikely IMO.
  3. Harsh on Rod, that! Not quite as bad as believing a random on here because he gets team news though, is it? Knowing someone who knows someone on the first team staff =/= having any sort of source with Ashley, his solicitors, or the now non-existent 'consortium'. Still, probably a step up from the parody Twitter account!
  4. Read this post and thought "eh, Joelinton's obviously not playing". Astonished to learn he is.
  5. The ramblings of this actual vagrant, and the cryptic tweets from a Mike Ashley parody Twitter account, suggest to me that something very big indeed is just round the corner.
  6. Agreed mate. First and foremost he has to be judged on his ability as a defensive wing-back. #backbruce #backtheboard #backbrexit
  7. Top trolling. Not actually trolling there - an obvious parody of the absolute degenerates in our fan base who've been itching to throw him under the bus.
  8. Should be the last time we see ASM in a black and white shirt. Not Bruce's fault at all - he's just not a good enough defender. Significant chunk of our freak fans always going to be more comfortable with using someone like him as a scapegoat than Bruce.
  9. It certainly boggles the mind to see so many people who've spent the last couple of months screaming that they're done with NUFC forever, get back on board after a fairly turgid away win against relegation fodder.
  10. What a truly rancid opinion on every conceivable level. Almiron has spent 10 minutes running against a desperate and tired West Ham that has no choice but to try and attack.
  11. No mate, they honestly didn't. They didn't even consider the question, it was completely irrelevant to the case they were presiding over.
  12. Oh. I'm astonished that she still has the cheek to be passing comment on this considering she and her melt boyfriend have embarassed themselves at every turn for the past 6 months. And I know I'm nutting a brick wall here but for the record, the WTO passed absolutely no comment on the relationship between the PIF and the government of KSA. So if someone is telling you otherwise (like this Shell clown), they're either consciously or unconsiously bullsitting you.
  13. Can you link a few of these legal opinions? I know the guy the NUST hired to write to the Premier League attempted to make that argument, haven't seen any others? https://www.footballlaw.co.uk/articles/newcastle-united-fc-takeover-and-the-premier-leagues-owners-and-directors-test That is the NUST guy. But all he offers is: "∆ On 2 June 2020 Qatari- and Saudi- based lawyers provided confirmation to this author that KSA PIF is a separate legal entity." Which is a) a worthless and vague piece of information and b) tells us nothing about the independence of the PIF, which is the crux of the matter. No-one who wasn't under the pay or the influence of the Saudis would ever try and make the argument that the PIF is operationally independent of the government of KSA.
