Ralf Rangnick was moaning about it as well apparently (not necessarily about us), has that bloke done anything since arriving besides fucking whinging? Starting to feel relieved we didn’t get the moaning bastard. First he wants the League Cup to be binned and now this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44793 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 The last question sounded like a hint of a mackem accent and the question was "Did you see the move to Spain as a bigger challenge than coming to Newcastle?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 That Trippier interview is class. He comes across well and you can tell he’s a leader. It’s also brilliant that he kept saying “I wanted to move back to the North”, absolutely decimates that wanker Agbonlahor with his “why would anyone go to Newcastle” spiel. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 42356 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Aside from what he brings to the side, his signing may help persuade a few more top quality players to join us this window, if they were wavering over the relegation issue?

Was Lewis Hamilton asked about the Saudi regime after he won the Grand Prix there? Genuine question as I don’t follow formula one much. It doesn’t seem to me like everyone gets the same treatment on what is essentially the same issue. I know neither of us are exactly comfortable with ownership but even so, asking a player about it is just daft imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an odd one for sure, the notion of ‘sports washing’. With a Grand Prix, a golf tournament or a boxing event or whatever the human rights issues come up but you can ignore them for a couple of weeks then they go away because the event ends. But if you’re the owner of a club that’s regularly in the champions league (which has to be their long term aim) then you would think the questions will never go away. I know it’s the case with the UAE but the Saudis are arguably considerably worse in many ways (not just human rights but their role in geo-politics and so on). Like you suggest, at some point you would think someone has to look at addressing it. Could it even bring meaningful change in the country? I won’t hold my breath on that one. Concentrating on NUFC and ignoring the wider Saudi investment, involvement etc in the uk is obviously narrow minded and hypocritical but we’ve been over that. Football is never really out if the limelight though so it’s not surprising it’s getting coverage. Especially as they haven’t invested in one of the media darlings known as the big 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
