Lerner threw in the towel when he realised his fortune was pocket change in comparison to the Man City owners. On the other hand our players will suddenly become more valuable as the market is inflated. The only way we can gain any leverage is the current path we are taking , developing talented youngsters the rich clubs haven't got the time for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Brilliant listening to a Newcastle fan on 5Live trying to convince the presenters that the Saudi state will have no indirect involvement in the running of the club. She completely lost the argument and eventually changed her tune to “I’m just a fan, I’m not bothered who runs the club”. I sense that this will be the party line for most fans.

That mythic idea of Newcastle as the club they are supposedly meant to be. The media is just as guilty in helping this through. Cheerleaders for despots and a craven Premier League that only cares about its profits. Let’s see what happens in 5 years when the ESL starts again. http://"UK authorised £1.4bn of arms sales to Saudi Arabia after exports resumed | Arms trade | The Guardian" https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2021/feb/09/uk-authorised-14bn-of-arms-sales-to-saudi-arabia-after-exports-resumed Quote UK authorised £1.4bn of arms sales to Saudi Arabia after exports resumed Campaigners accuse ministers of ‘putting profit before Yemeni lives’ as figures revealed....... Before you and others get upset with the Saud's I suggest you walk to Downing Street and protest and lobby the government to break all ties with them and stop putting guns in their hands. Then the same needs to happen in America too. - https://www.brookings.edu/blog/order-from-chaos/2021/02/04/its-time-to-stop-us-arms-sales-to-saudi-arabia/amp/ Quote The war in Yemen is America’s war. Saudi Arabia has spent a fortune buying arms from America to prosecute a war that has killed almost a quarter of a million people — the world’s worst humanitarian catastrophe in our lifetime. Two American administrations have enabled the war. It’s long past time to stop. What??? Canada too??? http://"Canada violating int’l law by selling arms to Saudis: Report | Weapons News | Al Jazeera" https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2021/8/11/canada-violating-intl-law-by-selling-arms-to-saudis-report Quote Canada is violating international law by selling weapons to Saudi Arabia, according to a new report by rights groups Amnesty International Canada and Project Ploughshares, which are urging Ottawa to suspend all arms exports to Riyadh. France are always there or there abouts. http://"Saudi Arabia arms sales: Which countries are still exporting? | Middle East Eye" https://www.middleeasteye.net/saudi-uae-coalition-arms-sales-country-breakdown Quote France is the third largest exporter of arms to Riyadh, with Paris accounting for 4 percent of the kingdom’s arms imports between 2015 and 2019, behind the US (73 percent) and UK (13 percent), according to the most recent figures released by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI). Over the same period, France was the second largest exporter of arms to the UAE. It's disgusting how things happen. It's disgusting how these scumbags got into power in the first place. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) Can't believe all the sour grapes on here, all jealousy.
