‘So the actual owners of Newcastle murdered that man personally.’
See comments above,Mick. The Saudi Regime own the company that bought the Toon. It is totally autocratic and ruthless. Few totalitarians do the torturing, the shooting, the poisoning and the ‘disappearing’ in person. They just ensure that it happens to order. The problem for me is that the test for ‘fit and proper’ ownership is antiquated. It is all centred on finance and ensuring that Clubs are owned by people who won’t lead them into administration etc As with all things Premier League.. it’s all about dosh. The moral dimension .. though harder to define… should be front and centre. My stance : ‘If you have no sense of justice, have cashed in and even caused human suffering ..then stay away from our sport. Find your pleasure and your status someplace else. Not here.’
