I’ve still got 3 months of Roy’s username and avi to decide on, glad I didn’t forget about that.

All suggestions welcome.

Unfortunately you didn't claim the bet and I forgot. I've lost a bet with a Tottenham fan ... I have this avy all season
 
He won't go to Spurs If they don't get in the champions league...they'll be Googling transfer targets because they'll have no money available whatsoever.

Issues surrounding the ownership of Newcastle United face fresh controversy after it has emerged that the UK government could have actively attempted to influence the Premier League's decision to green-light the Saudi Public Investment Fund's (PIF) £300 million takeover of the club in October 2021.


emails reveal that government officials met with Saudi officials to discuss the takeover, while then-Foreign Office minister James Cleverly was asked for updates on the takeover from the Saudi ambassador.


According to the documents, which were obtained under the freedom of information act, the UK government considered that a failed Saudi takeover of Newcastle United could be an "immediate risk" to the relationship between the two countries, with a £30 billion investment plan agreed between the two countries in 2018. This direct investment into the UK is planned to take place over a 10-year period as part of Mohammed Bin Salman's 'Vision 2030 plan' which aims to diversify the Saudi economy to become less reliant on oil and gas.
