A lot of Newcastle fans here, don’t mean to offend your club and I very much appreciate that they are not in the same ball league as City or Chelsea when it comes to financial irregularities, but just wanted to highlight a few things:
- You have had a net spend of £250M (only Chelsea have had larger net spend) since takeover. People often come back at this with we didn’t spend at all in Mike Ashley era, but your net spend there was £176M in his era (do appreciate it is much much lower than United, City, Chelsea etc, however it must be said that you had much lower revenue than these teams in this era.
- 3 of your sponsors (Sela, noon and Saudi Airline) are also owned by PIF/Saudi governemt. People always banged on about City’s dodgy sponsorship.
Just wanted to highlight again that these financial irregularities that I have just mentioned have not been proved as of writing, but just thought I would point it out to all Newcastle fans who were saying there was absolutely nothing wrong with financials at the club. Also wanted to say that these financial irregularities are nothing compared with the sort of stuff City and Chelsea are being accused of. Once again would like to say sorry to NUFC and its fans if I offended you or your club in any way.
