Could Newcastle's Saudi owners have hatched the greatest scheme ever to avoid the Premier League's FFP rules?

Step 1.  Build up your local league to a level that is competitive, where you attract both ageing stars but eventually younger talent.  Notice they bid for both Mbappe and Osimhen who thankfully declined but how long will that last?

Step 2. Hand pick the best young talent within your league to play for Newcastle under some kind of shady undervalued purchase agreement / loan agreement.

You just know it's coming and I really can't see a single thing that the Premier League can do about it.

On a work football group. Bloke who runs it is a Newcastle fan. Incredibly giddy yesterday and I had to delete a few messages I’d typed out that would probably have done me no favours! Seeing this lot happy, and their players in a kit with some big money Saudi sponsor no one has heard of just rubbed me up the wrong way.

They'll struggle with CL football as their squad is just not good enough.  Crashing out in the group stages (very likely) will affect their morale as well.

Needs an eye on that one.


Part of me (the wrong part) understands why a Newcastle fan can go on supporting the club when the owners change (let's face it if you survived through Mike Ashley you obviously are resilient)


What I cannot understand is why anyone in Newcastle or the surrounding areas would go and watch


Saudi Arabia v Costa Rica or Saudi Arabia v South Korea


Here's a true test of the people of Newcastle, boycott these, make it look as empty as it should be, even if they give you free tickets.

They'll be handing out free tickets to local schools to make it look busy no doubt. While giving Newcastle astronomical fees for the privilege.

They have finally dropped the pretence that the club isn’t owned by the state. They know UEFA and PL will do fuck all.

No, I won't be there, I loathe and detest them with a passion.
I always had a soft spot for Newcastle since the 74 cup final, and a feller swapped me his rosette on the train back to Euston. Always passionate about their club, and that side Keegan built was a proper football team.
I really felt sorry for them under Ashley as he was a carpet bagger of the worst sort. Now though I join you mate in loathing what they have become.
The Tories really must have put pressure on The FA and the Premier League to push the deal through. Now we see the guy who personally ordered Kashoggi’s interrogation and death, about to be feted by Sunak, just so we can sell more weapons for him to drop on Yemen.
