    @Santaseyebrow

    https://www.shieldsgazette.com/spor...d-led-bin-zayed-group-links-downplayed-226197

    Stories ran from yesterday evening. Now while it doesn't give a detail of the Sheikhs worth it does explain why you probably can't find out - they are forbidden by their religion to discuss it and another article quoted he is modelling his takeover on City and PSG style investments (not as much as them but still in the same style - gotta be better than ****ing Ashley right?) soo...

    Discussing the BZG bid, fellow UAE journalist Peter Redding, speaking exclusively to the Gazette, said: "Sheikh Khaled Bin Zayed Al Nehayan is a well-respected business pioneer of the UAE, of that there is no doubt.

    "Given his wealth you only have to look at the company's trading and profits. Here in the UAE local business people do not speak of wealth it is known as Haram (not allowed). But it is definitely safe to say he is a serious player.

    "As far as a deal currently – the silence is key. And that can definitely be seen as a positive.

    "I have open contact with BZG and, speaking to them, I feel a deal to buy Newcastle United is not far away.

    “I think BZG group are looking to replicate foreign ownership from the likes of Man City and PSG. While I don’t think that kind of wealth is an option I can see this being huge for Newcastle United."

    "Knowing the culture of the UAE and being involved in sport, this is no smokescreen. This group are the real deal."

    Maybe...but I have it on good authority that God thought he was quids in when he invented humans. The reference to the phrase " quids in " is in the Bible somewhere.

    Unfortunately I've left my Bible at work, however I'm pretty certain that when Moses came down the mountain in his Triumph he had a tablet in one hand and a couple of quid in the glove compartment for the ferry in case the trick with the parting of The Red Sea didn't work.
