Well done to these fans. The name of Jamal Khashoggi should be chanted by the opposition fans at every game that Newcastle now play as well.

A subsequent post from the official Croydon Metropolitan Police Twitter account read: âOn Saturday 23 October police received a report of an offensive banner displayed by Crystal Palace fans. Officers are assessing the information and carrying out enquiries. Any allegations of racist abuse will be taken very seriously.â
Hopefully , and then their little sportswashing exercise might end up having precisely the opposite effect that was intended.
Seems like just about everything that ole Bonesaw gets personally involved in turns into a public relations disaster for them.

Donât really know about the banner but the description sounded a lot more than the image looks.
However that statement is 100% spot on by the Palace fans and it has to be made and said in public because beyond the odd comment writer none of the broadcasters were.
They just wanked themselves silly over about it.

Was fuck all racist in that. They just called a spade a spade. Waste of time but I have a suspicion that criticism of all this is going to lazily be slated as racist. Fucking mad.

Thing is if plenty of people do so (Newcastle fans no doubt) then they have to investigate
Would be an incredibly selfish and irresponsible thing to do in my view. Football tribalism should not be allowed to trivialize the real issues.

Itâs what I reckon has happened though. Hopefully nothing comes of it when I first read about it I kind of felt a bit uneasy but having seen it itâs quite different from the description.
Would have preferred the character missing but to me itâs obvious itâs an attack on what they are attempting and credit goes to them, as a gay man that statement should have been coming from the PL not the fans.
Itâs spot on

You being serious?
Iâve no idea why youâre treating this like itâs pie in the sky. No oneâs suggesting it will happen overnight, but teams as big as Barcelona and Real Madrid at least operate alternative models to PLCs. Teams as big as Rangers have significant minority fan ownership. In Germany, thereâs a whole system in place to prevent what weâve seen in England.
The official position of Spirit of Shankly - Liverpoolâs supporters union - is ultimately to strive for fan ownership. That is a legitimate position and in my view the right one.
Because it is pie in the sky. None of the teams youâve cited are in any way comparable.
As for it being Spirit of Shanklyâs official position, Iâm sure it is. But that certainly doesnât lend it any more credence, if anything the opposite.
Only in Newcastle, on this occasion I think.
SOS are asking for either fans to find two billion quid to buy the club (and then persuade FSG to sell) or a conservative government to nationalise a private business.
The pie is in fucking orbit, mate.

I hope that they will. Iâm sure that our fans will have the civil courage too to expose these Saudi ©°~â Ă for what they are.

The more the fans chant against them , hopefully the more some players get reluctant about joining them⊠I know money matters most for them but even if 2 out of their targets refuse to join them , that would be a benefit

Iâm all for people exposing the truth about Newcastleâs new owners but how have Cityâs owners escaped this for so long?

I saw someone say that the PL clubs are refusing to do business with Newcastle in January. Anyone else read anything like that?
This is MBS:
Lets hope to see many more banners and protests about the bonesaw cunt.
A former senior Saudi intelligence officer has claimed that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is a âpsychopath with no empathyâ who once boasted that he could kill the kingdomâs ruler at the time, King Abdullah, and replace him with his own father.
Aljabri [the former senior Saudi intelligence officer] has strong support in the USâŠthe former acting CIA director Mike Morell said Aljabri was âhonourableâ. Intelligence relayed to the US by Aljabri â Morell said â had led to the interception of bombs that had been planted by al-Qaida in 2010 in two desktop printers that were being flown as cargo on two planes.
Morell said there were also other examples of Aljabri saving the lives of Americans, but that they were still classified.
