    The game is fecked. When the football authorities allow such obscene takeovers.
    I’m not exactly enamoured by ours. As I’m not 100% sure where we stand as a business and the passion these people have for our club. Given the amount of clubs they’ve purchased.
    But this one for Newcastle is abhorrent. Given human rights reasons. As 1 or 2 others may be. Man City being one.

    What can they do when the horse has already bolted. Do they turn round to Man City & Chelsea and have them kicked out of the PL. Once the initial spending calms down at Newcastle they'll have to comply with financial fair play, just like City and Chelsea do. We just have to face it, the PL has turned into a game of top trumps or the haves and have nots.

    Whatever the financial equivalent of an arms race is.

    It’s sickening, watching the media response to this. Celebrating it like it’s Christmas. Alan Shearer can fk right off an all. Despicable.

    Departing owners referred to as the cockney mafia. Incoming owners heralded as saviours.

    The ‘United with Pride’ fan group saying this is an opportunity for the owners and their country to see how inclusive Newcastle is and improve for the better. While at the same time condemning the World Cup in Qatar because of the archaic attitudes to certain groups of society.

    Newcastle are quickly racing in to the Champions League spots of my most disliked teams. I’d love them to get Zidane and still get relegated this season.

    The other clubs aren't fooling anyone pretending their opposition is based in morality. They wouldn't care if Harold Shipman bought Newcastle so long as he isn't a multi billionaire.

    It’s disgusting that this take over has happened but the clubs aren’t objecting due to moral reasons. Pure jealousy. Also whilst the World Cup is being held in Qatar and the uk government sells weapons to the saudi’s plus there being lots of dodgy owners at PSG, City, Chelsea etc it seems harsh to single out Newcastle. I wouldn’t want anything to do with them though, I’ll stick with the super reds and our owners of impeccable honesty and unquestioning morals ;)

    Ironic given where Romans money allegedly comes from that they would object on moral grounds.
