    I thought we were talking players who were in the championship.

    No I’m talking those that where involved in our post promotion squad.

    It’s still 11 players either way mind.

    Even so. It is still bonkers that 10 or 11 are still with us and that’s MA fault.

    The futures bright: the future is PIF!

    You seem to be ignorant of the F.A, EUEFA & FIFA ? I also remember Forest fans with the same amount of enthusiasm as you are now showing and weren’t your fans similarly as exited when Ashley first came in ?
    I hope you do stay up because you are a big sleeping giant (that needs to wake up ) with a fantastic loyal and knowledgeable fan base !
    looking in from the outside, am not sure about your new ownership and their ethics... I hope I am wrong because Newcastle United FC is rightfully respected throughout the football community !
    All the best.

    Go look up the word ignorant, then read what we were talking about, Which was the new EPL rule announced today - which has jackshit to do with the FA, UEFA or FIFA. Now I'm sure you obviously know all this, saying as I'm the "ignorant one", that they announced that NUFC could now sign sponsorship deals with Saudi Arabian Companies after blocking this for 2 months. However any sponsorship deal signed with a related party - In our case Aramco, Saudi Airways, STC etc. have to be "agreed" by a new external PL commercial department, however retrospective deals are all fine. This now applies to all PL clubs.

    Now please do continue to tell me who the ignorant one is? :emoticon-0173-middl:emoticon-0173-middl:emoticon-0173-middl

    Excuse my ignorance, but have you got a link to what you have just enlightened me with as I cannot find anything about it online regarding all epl clubs ?
    In general, I thought I was being quite complimentary with regards to NUFC and it’s fan base ?
    Reminds me of that old saying..... “ You’ll always get one “
    Now you have yourself a great Christmas

    Certainly. You can find what we were discussing here - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/s...y-LEGAL-action-new-commercial-deal-rules.html and pretty much every newspaper and news outlet going.

    Whilst I'm at it, can I also point out to you that the FA have no power over the premier league which can be researched by reading Tracey Crouch's government led review into football.

    Also that UEFA have no authority on rules being implemented by the EPL, and also whilst I'm at it the fact that FIFA deal with International Football and NOT domestic football.

    The fans at the time of Ashley's appointment were excited for a new owner due to a number of alleged dodgy off pitch dealings from the former chairman with regards to things like warehouses, brothels, buying free agents for £8m when his son was the agent and the manager had shares in the selling club etc etc. It wasn't quite the same as in "HOLY **** LITTLE OLD NEWCASTLE ARE THE RICHEST SPORTING ORGANISATION UNDER GOD/ALLAH'S HOT SUN"

    As for the point on Human Rights, ethics, morality etc. I can only speak for myself, however I have never seen anything official which makes the western societies of the world this planets moral compass.

    Do they use medieval capital punishment techniques by way of beheadings? - Yes. Would I rather be beheaded poisoned whilst strapped to a table, fried whilst sat in a chair or in Sadam Hussein's case hung - I think I'd opt for the sword. Again personal choice. Nowt said about the good old USA.

    Do I believe they have outdated laws with regards women etc? Yes, however I think their quite correct in not letting women drive, if I was in power they wouldn't be allowed to be in politics either :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm.

    Are they outdated with their views on homosexuality? We only changed the laws in the 80's for Christ/Allah's sake - Give them time.

    Did they assassinate a journalist? I don't care. Every country in the world assassinates people. The US used a drone to assassinate an Iranian General just last year. They got caught. None of my business.

    End of the day I just support my football club through the bad and ****e times - (been going since early 80's) and the hope of a brighter future.
