They did at the time, sailed through. That’s what happens when you are one of the five PL founding clubs. See Wimbledon and Coventry on the last day of the season too, then you maybe see the corruption. You won’t see a PL without the five original clubs sunshine.
but. but you're not one of the top 6 either

which means you're not entitled to challenge for anything
 
The point is the hypocrisy.

If you allow one why is the other any worse?
The sale would probably have been approved by government and passed straight away if the Saudis had classed it as an arms deal and said they planned to use replays of some of our performances this last season as a more effective form of torture than waterboarding or white noise for human rights prisoners.

Write to your MP to demand transparency from the Premier League
over the NUFC takeover

The Premier League has sat on the prospective takeover of Newcastle United for 17 weeks (and counting) which has led to the collapse of the deal. Answers are now needed.

United we stand a far greater chance of getting a resolution we desire. We have got to come together as a fan base and this is your opportunity to write to your elected representative and demand action from the Premier League.

For the sake of the future of the football club and the North East, if there is a small chance, we can get answers from the Premier League and get an explanation we must come together and we must do it now.
 
Do you have a copy of the letter they want us to send?


I am writing to you as a constituent. As my local MP I would urge you to help me and thousands of other Newcastle United supporters get answers from the Premier League.
On 5th August 2020 Newcastle United Supporters Trust wrote a statement asking that they support our call for transparency from the Premier League
https://nufctrust.co.uk/news-story/nufc-takeover-statement-august-2020/
I am not writing to ask you to comment on the takeover of a football club or indeed a football matter. I am calling for you to help me get answers from the Premier League on their process:
I ask that you write directly to the Premier League and ask them:
1) Why did a process which generally takes a month last so long, 17 weeks and counting, without coming to any decision?
2) Is it true that several Premier League clubs objected to the takeover and what influence do the views of competing clubs have in the approval process?
3) Do you agree that it is unacceptable to leave loyal fans in such doubt for so long and that the process needs to be improved? For example, it is clear certainly press was briefed but there was no dialogue or engagement with fans at all?
4) Do you think it is fair that Newcastle United has been left severely disadvantaged as a consequence of the delay?
The supporters of Newcastle United have been ignored by the Premier League. The Premier League may have sound reasons for drawing out the takeover process for more than four months and the Premier League may have done everything they needed to do to protect their business and Newcastle United.
We, the members of the Supporters Trust firmly believe our elected representatives must come together to get answers for football supporters.
Please support the Newcastle United Supports Trust get the answers we deserve from the Premier League. Support the cross-party call to action


yours..............................
