Totally agree that this rule should happen, but the timing of it is both transparent and hilarious. This is purely because we've got a squad decimated by injuries, will likely be looking for a loan deal in the January window, and the Saudi state owned league is suddenly and inorganically much stronger.

Nothing to do with stopping the circumvention of FFP rules that can, and surely has, occurred since multi-club ownership became a thing. Had we a full strength team, this wouldn't even be on the agenda. But we don't, so it is.

Bring it in, by all means, but don't make out like it's anything but an obvious attempt to stop us strengthening in January.

We'll no doubt have closed a route that's open to literally every other club in the league, but it is what it is. One of the costs of doing deals with the devil, isn't it? We'll be forced to get a player from somewhere else, I guess.

Bullshit......... You are SO full of shit. Watching you throw your integrity away as you bend further and further over for the Saudi blood money is pitiful.

In what non-currupt world does a minnow club sign a 60m MFer and then make their side worse by loaning him out a few months later??????

We all predicted that you'd loan Nevez back in the summer. Fuck off with your victim shit.

I've just heard that 2 more groups from the Middle East have expressed an interest in buying Newcastle.
One is a crisp manufacturer and the other is a dance academy.
The consortiums are being headed by Sultan Vinega and Sheikh it Al Aboot.
 
I think the investigation will be dropped as no crime has been committed. The worse thing the Saudis want is this going to court and being proved fair comment.

"Following an assessment, officers have concluded that no offences have been committed," said Croydon police. "No further action will be taken."


Quite right too.

I get it, why would a fans of a team unaffected by the rules be bothered by them?

Fuck off with this patronising bullshit.

Spurs have had to follow the rules...... Didn't stop us building our club up.... We just had to do it the hard way...... You're just crying cos there's no shortcut available to you.

The mistake was allowing Chavs & City to get a foothold the way they did; not that we shut that pathway down (reminder, the EPL clubs majority VOTED for this).


If you're such a BIG BIG club like your lot constantly bleat about, then monetise that support and potential and build organically like we did.

Meh. Might actually even things out if there’s another mega club.

Whatever, just win the CL, win the league then I can check out of modern football a happy man

Wonderful, a league with a club owned by a Russian gangster, a country that uses slaves and now a country that has spent decades spreading fanatical Salafism across the Muslim World with oil money. No doubt there will be a club owned by a CCP businessman using Uyghur slave Labour, that will probably be us.

The Premier League, what a product! Just need Hitler back from the dead to own West Ham.
 
Great another absolute tinpot club who haven’t won a bean about to get filthy rich

Imagine in 2002 someone saying that City, Newcastle and Chelsea would be winning titles etc, you’d have laughed them out of the building

Fuck football, it’s finished
 
Amazing how Sky were appalled by the ESL, we had that Long speech from Neville etc, nearly crying

They don’t mind human rights abusers buying a club though do they, in fact they’re celebrating it, Newcastle’s games will be on Sky so ITS FINE

Neville ok with stoning women and drowning gays is he? Fair enough
