Newcastle United

[Highbury Hillbilly]

I've never understood why Rafa is so overrated.

His football is horrible, he had one good stint at Liverpool over 10 years ago and people are still giving him the benefit of the doubt, plus he's got health issues.

He's a foreign manager who's had significant staying power in the PL, despite being years past his best.

He got relegated w/ Newcastle, but stayed with them and took them back up. Any manager of his level would have turned tail and gone elsewhere.

He's also doing a great job so far at Everton, while spending close to zero.

PL clubs voted yesterday for an immediate temporary suspension of sponsorship deals directly linked to owners.

That we'll & truly fucks up the new Newcastle owner's plans.

Depends on what they mean by 'directly linked to the owner'.
The corrupt Saudi Govt could order any Saudi company to buy 20million Newcastle shirts over the next 5 years, which would add about 200 million a year to commercial revenue.
It's simply not enforceable.
You can't police a corrupt dictatorship.
Once you let them in, the rules no longer matter.

Well yes that could happen.

An example of directly linked to the owner would be Mike Ashley's Sports Direct sponsorship. Or a bigger example would be Etihad and man city.

LOL that won't stop a god damn thing.

There is nothing stopping the Saudi's from getting a sponsorship with Fly Emirates and funnelling their owners the money.

Do you think rich and powerful people get to where they're by letting little ranting people like the Prem owners get in their way?

Its happening, the money is coming, FFP has done fk all, somehow ........ every season ....... City still manage to have the most expensive players, £100m for Grealish?

The whole things a joke.

FIFA fked this up years ago, the cat is out of the bag, throwing tantrums just because a whale has hit the beach isn't going to put the genie back in the bottle.

[Ach]

Bruce is gone

You only need to look at City's commercial revenue to know where they are cheating. It's almost as high as UTDs now.

Up by 15 times I think over just a few years.
Yeah right.
Meanwhile they can't even fill their stadium

Newcastle fans asked by the club not to wear arab headgear as it's culturally inappropriate and offensive.

Just keep waving the flags, it pleases the Prince.

By who?

Another up tight white guy named Steve?

I know for a fact the Saudi's don't care, they'd think its a compliment.

Just out of interest (because I haven't looked) where are City claiming all this revenue from?
