    He'll make sure that the business side is set up properly as governed by the country they are dealing with

    Of who I know is available I'd like Pochettino. I think he would give us an identity the fans would all get on board with and is a project manager. If we are to have the finances to significantly improve our position we've still got to do it right.

    I clicked on that link, and from the posts I saw it's just sad - and not in a slagging them off way. They've had so much **** kicked out of them football wise recently that I think they genuinely don't care. I love to see us beat them and be higher up than them, etc, but it's only a rivalry if their club survives and they are close enough to us to make it meaningful. We know what it's like to have the heart ripped out of our club and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

    There but for the grace of god and all that.......

    you know the film saving private Ryan when the German begs for his life and they let him live ? and he comes back later on and kills the person that let him live slowly with a knife ?

    they've been a worthy adversary and I feel for them, but I'm not risking missing this opportunity to end this war

    look this is where they die

    With any luck, they'll get taken over by Iran's sovereign wealth fund, and the two countries can contest their rivalry via the Tyne-Wear derby rather than proxy wars in the middle east. North East becomes a footballing powerhouse, and everyone can stop bombing the sh!t out of Yemen...

    This isn't Hollywood though and there would be local jobs lost and a lot of local investment lost too. We would also be better off with near neighbours back in the Prem to attract players. It would always be a stumbling block to us to have no other clubs nearby.

    The Saudis and the Iranians would finally get to see what a proper local rivalry looked like

    **** like that happens in real life.

    tbh i do feel sorry for them and if ours goes through I hope they are a few years down the line given a new start , but not quite of the same magnitude.

    saying they don't care means they're sitting in the bath waiting to drop the toaster in it imo
