What insulting a womanās appearance and yet not one comment bar mine about the other supposed owner?
No, but being at the center of comments about new ownership. Not like Salman has rocked up to St. James. Agree that the tenor of the comments could do with some improvement, but she really has made herself the public face precisely so that MBS stays out of the limelight. It is not as if she was brought on board for her money, is it?
Frankly, having a woman in the role is brilliantly cynical on the Saudis part, a version of the āglass cliffā principle.
Amanda Staveley is to Saudi Arabia as Ghislane Maxwell is to Jeffrey Epstein.
Or is that unfair?

Well I thought the new owner was āpeterā from coronation Streetā¦but no it isnāt.
Whatās the punishment for non compliance?

Chop their heads off ?
I believe the Taliban were flogging men for wearing trousers, so presumably something along those lines in the Wahhabi tradition.
I laughed when I read Lampard is one of the top contenders. Would be a downgrade. From gritty effectiveness to posh ineffectuality. Please hire him.

Amanda Stavely - comments on her appearance seem a little out of place. Iām sure Iāve been guilty of this stuff too, but reading it seems like a miss.
Not sure what it says of our current society, but Iām perfectly fine with Steve Bruce having a big fat head, or Fat Sam being touted, or calling Dyche a ginger bollocks with a husky Phyllis-from-Coronation-Street-Voice, and Pep a bald fraud. And so on. But commenting on Stavelyās appearance seems wide of the mark.
I also wouldnāt make the comparison with Ghislaine Maxwell. Saudi Arabia is obviously a disgrace with regard to its human rights record, but Stavely hasnāt done anything illegal and isnāt sitting in jail awaiting trial.
Anyway, Fat Frank for manager? Sorry, jolly Frank!
I would take that. He hasnāt shown that he has what it takes, and while it would be difficult to not improve Newcastleās fortunes from their lowly position, especially with money thrown at it, I donāt think Lampard is very good.

I think the AM discussion is over, till weāre better informed.
Probably a reminder to all of us not to make judgements based on appearance. I presumed sheād had some work done, and Iād have probably weighed in with a joke if Iād seen the conversation earlier.

Donāt see any difference with commenting on her appearance and calling Bruce a massive pie head. Why should her be a female mean she is exempt?
Watching her fake cheering when they scored was just as nauseating and fakeā¦
Sheās been whoring herself around football clubs and owners with zero disregard for where the money comes from for 20 yearsā¦ I remember FSG refused to speak to China if she was involved.

Perhaps. But letās finish my sentenceā¦ āand isnāt sitting in jail awaiting trial.ā
Iām not on board the St. Amanda train, but it does seem unfair to make a comparison to Maxwell.
