    Rathe leeds than West ham, but whoever it is it'll only make the situation far more painful... Just wronged on a collosal scale..

    I don't even give a **** if it's PIF or not. Leicester weren't taken over under any fanfare, neither Wolves, neither Villa. There's good ownerships out there with ambition for clubs that doesn't have Saudi money. If our club wasn't grossly overvalued by £100m, we'd already be sold to someone decent. But Ashley won't do that. He has crippled this club, destroyed its soul and even now in looking like some kind of victim is ****ing us over, and over, and over.

    He could say "right, the £100m debt I accrued through my abject stupidity isn't the fault of NUFC, so I'm writing that off as a tax liability. Club's for sale at £200m." There'd be a queue from SJP to the Monument of willing buyers, none of which would necessarily be Saudi princes." He's just a morbidly greedy **** and I suspect he won't make a deal with Saudi's, will stick by Bruce, will relegate the club and will then make zero effort to sell in the Championship either. I think we'll be stuck on a turgid ride with this odious bastard for years and years.

    That's the thing it's this deal or the clubs finished.. Lost a lotto ticket and it'll go to the arsehole down the street

    People keep banging on about Leicester, but not only is that incredibly rare it won't last and they've spent alot actually... Far more than our ****house has anyway, but not as much as the big clubs..

    Villa are rich as **** btw and so are wolves

    Neither do I mate, but you’re massively over estimating the ****s they give about football in general let alone one particular club.

    They don't give a ****. They do care about Saudi money though. They will be thinking of what they get out of the Saudis. NUFC is irrelevant.

    Exactly and they established London will get **** all and they don't care about the North East, so they ****ed us over as usual.

    They won't care about who the Saudis want to buy. If Saudi money comes into the economy it wouldn't matter if they were after Spurs, Brighton, Newcastle or Queen of the South.

    It's still rumbling on but if we go down whatever happens with the arbitration case will be irrelevant..

    True. Constant arguments with your conscience. Newcastle or Sunderland. Toilet or get a round in. Constant arguments.

    PIF announce $3TN worth of investments over the next decade. Newcastle not one of them.
