Just relates to payment of money. Ashley cannot call off deal without suffering significant financial penalties himself. Its happening.
People can be overly optimistic but in this case people are being overly pessimistic. This is done, Ashley is gone, go get your favourite alcohol and enjoy this. The Ashley era is over and Newcastle survived it as a Premier League club
This. The legal framework is complete. Legally, we are sold, subject to PL approval. Only the PL can stop it. They won't though.
I love the fans out there trying to tell us not to get excited because what they're really saying are all the things they need to tell themselves to stop worrying ... their words are basically them telling themselves everything will be ok and nufc will still be **** , but deep down they know whats coming.
The ones getting on their high horses about the Saudi human rights record are doing my head in. Where are they when the Russians or Chinese restrict human rights.
Thank you to Amanda Staveley for seeing the potential of the football club, going around the east and finding anyone to put the money forward. It has clearly taken years, been hard graft, its nice to see that effort and determination is replacing a fat toad who reached into his back pocket.
yeah they're actually disgusting because their real issue is nufc being the next man city. they're being insincere by using human rights rather than their real reason, otherwise why did they all say nothing about sheff united saudi owner ? ill answer it .. because he wasnt rich enough for them to be bothered by it .
It's well known what the Saudis get up to. Just like it's well known thst China imprisoned people for speaking out against their government. The Russians actively encourage persecution of gays and immigrants. Certain far east countries have the death penalty. The USA has the death penalty.
And not to mention the Chinese preventing people from speaking out earlier about covid-19. How many lives might have been saved if this had been made public knowledge as soon as it was discovered. we will never know.
To be fair, Abramovic isn’t Putin and Fosun aren’t Chairman Mao. So we need to not plummet headlong into the “ignorant Geordie” mix. MBS was in charge when Khashoggi met his horrible fate: I believe he is trying to change things now - since that time it’s been a wave of Western investment and we/Amanda look like being beneficiaries.
