The Geordies won’t be happy, not that they ever are.

Ashley could pump £200m into the club and they'd moan it wasn't £300m

Bit of a catch 22 for Ashley. He doesn’t want to spend anymore money but unless he continues to invest they will be in danger of being relegated which massively reduces their worth when it comes to selling the club.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

The Premier League have played that one quite well. Paves the way for the other buyer, if Ashley wants to sell which he might well do ahead of the mother of all recessions.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Decided they can no longer compete as the all conquering mighty Whites have entered the league and it will be just a waste of the honest money.

Relegation fodder lovely

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Excellent.

Can't stand Petrostate teams.

If they start the next season with nothing sorted, I'd fancy them to be in the relegation scrap. Up to the lockdown (in my opinion) they were the spawniest of all the teams in the Prem; they hardly seemed to play well in any game, yet somehow fluked wins here and there.

Without the cash investment, and the turmoil that would create, I'd expect them to struggle.

With a human rights hat on, I'm saying "this is a great day for the Premier League to not have a club associated with this grubby regime"

With a person who often wishes bad things on Newcastle United fans hat, I'm saying "hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"

This this this!

 

[blue-shifted]

I bet the heads up (rather than heads off) that they were going to be refused as fit and proper owners and given the chance to gracefully back out

 

[Nameless]

Lol. What a shame.

Guessing Steve Bruce will be.

 

[Mellotron]

Good.

 

[Eeyore]

I feel sorry for the supporters that there hasn't been a change there. However, I'm pleased this hasn't happened. If they had tried a take over at the Albion I would have been against it, prospects or not.

 

[The Wizard]

Newcastle fans don’t seem to like Steve Bruce yet they only got a point less under him than under the messiah miracle worker Rafa Benitez

I can’t imagine Steve Bruce was behind the purchase of that donkey Joelinton either, not sure if it’s true but a Newcastle supporting friend of mine said that the 40M fee they paid for him was a sham made up figure anyway.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

It's a bit of a shame they hadn't either sacked or broken any trust with Bruce assuming this was happening, and then being unable to bring in anyone decent when the takeover fell through.

 

[dingodan]

I shouldn't laugh.

I shouldn't eat this whole packet of Jaffa Cakes either, but I'M GOING TO.

Dont like the Saudis but gotta say they did this well
