Hasn't been the same since his kid was born. Doesn't take much not to be 100% and maybe he's not resting as much or his focus has slipped. Hopefully gets back to his best soon, he makes such a difference

Lol. Quite the group. We will do well to get 3rd tbh

In this country we happily vote into power people who sell our state industries to their friends who make billions and run them into the ground, people who are bought and owned by Russians and others, who enrich themselves and their friends while stripping us of our rights and money. The vox pop Russians are same as ordinary people everywhere, they care about feeding their family or drinking themselves stupid

Or it could be a charade that's still carrying on and it's a faked death so he can live anonymously spending his billions

Newcastle United: Club Sold To PCP - Official
spongebob toonpants replied to The Mighty Hog's topic in Newcastle Forum
From the football clubs point of view it raises their profile in the middle east Asia and south America. Its all about being a global brand. It's pointless ignoring the fact we're owned by PIF , that's not going away, but this is more about marketing the club than "sportswashing". It seems to be sportswashing is exaggerated as a motive the the Saudi rulers. They don't give much of a toss what the West thinks, they've got oil so they've got money so they've got power. This is all about consolidating their money and power, that's what motivates them, not what football fans think of their politics -

With all the usual caveats about the disgusting rulership of Saudi, I actually don't have a problem with this or infact the Saudi-like change kits. Leadership aside Saudi has a young football crazy 36 million population. It makes total sense to me to position the club to make us the team of choice for that audience. Saudi isn't just about MBS as revolting as he is, I'd much rather be associating us with the gen pop Lfc and man ufc have benefited hugely from getting to the asian market first, SA is a huge marketplace we would be mugs to ignore -
Talking of Brighton he's not exactly flying under the radar, but I hope Ashworth has his hooks into Ferguson, that kids going to be a monster

I think (choose to believe) that when she was using "his excellency" on the phone it was to emphasise to Everton that there could be no negotiation as the boss had spoken so out of her control. The honorific reinforced the idea that was the final offer and no room for compromise. Made me cringe though

She's reviled by the right wing because she took the knee, stood up for minorities, and against Trump, and spoke her mind while being unapologetically gay. Past her best at this tournament, but not her fault she got selected. She's a hero imo
