he's got a very small opinion on Newcastle as a club or he's being manipulative because he's covering the possibility of finishing lower than last season and the one before with false positives. I'm sick of hearing him cream over other clubs and belittling nufc. it's not a good look needs to change that
Aye mate. 100% just covering his own arse, I’m sure when Ashley took over Soton were in league one, now apparently we’ve achieved as we’re a couple of points behind them. Just refreshes that if this takeover were to fail, I’ll genuinely be suprised if i watch one Newcastle match next season & I love this club! How a team can fall so much is ridiculous
from Match 2 in his post match interview at spurs he instantly ignited the rafa comparison himself by saying we're 3 points better of than last year ... he continued with that rather than just talk about what he's doing until very recently and I suspect he's realised it's possible the end result is that he's done worse than the last 2 seasons. he's laying the foundations just in case.. If we finish on 45 points he'll say " if you told me id do aswel as a great manager like rafa Benitez is take that " if we finish on more he'll say " we've improved on last year " , but if we lose the next 3 he's going to say nothing about comparisons and say it's been difficult due to coronavirus and no home advantage the owners been terrific but not mention any comparisons.. he's very good at talking is Bruce... it's ultimately all about him though. he's done well he didn't need to make it a personal crusade that's all. Sick of his comparisons aimed at making himself look better than he is and sick of his pandering to Ashley and creaming over other clubs... he's a nice bloke but i saw through it early on and I don't like it .
looks like the press have gone with option 1. I suppose they'll get more clicks with the it's off or in doubt stories
Ah, teh old press making that it wont happen for clicks. Thought it is would get more. Martin Samuel has a conspiracy article that will get loads of clicks if you fancy reading it, it's on the closed top 8
there's those that are desperate for it to fail and they report everything with a negative bias and those that want it to pass who report everything with a positive bias. The majority of course want it to fail ... only the fans of nufc want it to pass, so 99% of the reports are ultra negative
This ^ It’s a complete logic fail. The idea that the Saudis banning the TV rights holder who bought the licence from the PL, from broadcasting in their nation, is somehow a positive development in terms of the PL relationship with the Saudis is a completely ****ed up conclusion.
What part of, the deal for that region isn’t up for renewal are you struggling with? It’s abject nonsense
You don’t have to wait. BEin have the licence to the PL TV rights until 2022 for that region. That’s it.
They've broken some kind of rules hence the ban. what's your take on the situation ? it's reported the only other scenario is they be been told it's failed and thrown a tantrum ... to me that seems unlikely.. they'd just appeal and take legal action not just a knees jerk hissy fit .
There’s nothing to suggest beIN have broken any rules. The Saudis have just seemingly stomped their feet and made watching the PL legally in Saudi impossible. That’s all that’s happened here. Doesn’t sound like a smart move to me if you’re wanting to stay on the right side of the PL like, as they’ve literally made piracy the only option on their turf, and completely stuck 2 fingers up to both the rights holder and the PL.
