    They won't get anywhere with this will they?

    Fucking Idiots

    Seems it’s Emergency Services Day aka an excuse to give thousands of free tickets away. Not sure that's worked as well as they'd have been hoping.

    Wouldn't that mean that everyone who gave them a quid years ago is no longer a member? I've had nothing from them about renewing or paying annually.

    Newcastle United Saudi Takeover

    Speaking of which has there been any indication from Newcastles new owners are going to go on a Man City / Chelsea style spending spree? Just because they've got it doesn't necessarily mean they'll be chucking it at Newcastle.

    Newcastle United Saudi Takeover

    They bought a decent chunk of shares in a concert promoter, think it was LiveNation who then put out a statement saying there was nothing they can do to control who buys shares as they're publicly traded.
