Just to say I will brutally murder anyone that starts seriousposting about how it's simply outrageous allowing the Saudi Arabians to own a club with their human rights record if you support a club that's owned by (a) billionaire(s)

I think we can all agree it’s a shame such a detestable group of people have decided to group up with the Saudi’s.

Revising my funniest possible outcome from this being the Fake Sheikh's triumphant return, to Newcastle spending a billion quid on players, finishing fifth, and then getting zapped by FFP because the Saudis don't even have the minimal amount of nous required to get around it with the figleaf shell games other owners use.

I'm rather new to this footy business, so I'll ask a perhaps dumb question.

If you were a rich as gently caress Arab, it would seem more interesting, more challenging, and perhaps less expensive at first, to buy, say, Millwall, or any other English League team, and improve it to the point where got promoted. At least there would be some drama.

Why isn't this route ever taken by the billionaires? Senseless to try to think like a billionaire, I know.

Not sure Millwall would be my first choice, now that I think about it. No. I was lying. Millwall it is.

Probably safer to buy a huge club with massive regional support, and Newcastle is way too big for their current state so an easy choice.

E: Like, look at the Man City attendance drama - that would never happen to a club the size of Newcastle

I don't think club cash flow is that big an issue with billionaires. At that level, the cash value of clubs is a great investment, typically. So you could get your money back and more.

e: gently caress I don't know

In honor of their new owner, hope the Geordies create a new celebration when they score a goal like the Poznan except instead it's recreating the gimmick gesture for the character Macho Man Randy Savage played in the Spider-man film:

My brain can't handle this at the moment. When George Caulkin tweeted its done and just waiting for the announcement I nearly cried. Worried I will burst into tears when it become official.
