That’ll be the first swerving of the financial fair play rules by Newcastle
25M a year shirt sponsor.
By pure coincidence a Saudi company.

Before you go throwing mud, have you checked other clubs to see what their shirt sponsorship deals are worth? And obviously there’s a good chance we’ll be doing business with Saudi companies.

I’ve checked for you and Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool’s are all significantly higher than ours. City and Liverpool’s are more than double ours.

So it’s a non-story.

Let's be clear: Budget wise NFC is/will be in the same league as City and PSG. I personally do not believe states should own football teams (or anything associated with professional sport. But then I am not sure an oligarch is that much better, or an oil company, or...
Sportwashing has won golf over, they are well on their way with football and it will not stop here. TtC likes the fact his team is in the limelight again. I can understand that, NFC had excellent fans badly let down year after year by the former owner; A knight in shining armour chased him out and is pouring money into the club, they can put their chin forward and pretend they're back in the elite as they'll undoubtedly will be title contenders very soon.
Whether they'll have sold their soul or not is irrelevant. What isn't, though, is this constant gaslighting trying to deny that financial rules are broken, and that they can do it since others are. It's fine to be OK with sport washing I suppose, but at least accept it is the case.

Does sportswashing even work? I can't think of anything that's made the Saudis' human rights abuses more prominent in the public consciousness than LIV and Newcastle United.

You are correct, at the moment it doesn't work. But they are playing the long game.

That ship has sailed pal .
I’m giving up on City now . I’m looking for a mid table club with potential. What’s the season ticket situation at Anfield like ? 😁

Still a 25 year wait, my son will probably have kids his own age now before he gets one.

Ridiculous.

Something wrong there then . That’s ridiculous. We are definitely going the same way . Pricing fans out and tourists everywhere.
The final last night was appalling .
I can see Stockport calling 😳

[Wallasey Runner]

I love all this, so far Everton have got shut of Conor Cody which is an absolute disgrace and the fat ginger one wants to buy more Burnley rejects who helped him achieve relegation.

He already has several in his current squad and they are equally shit, but for some reason needs more.

Deckchairs on the Titanic springs to mind.

7m a year to 25m

The first figure would be a legitimate figure for a shirt sponsor of a team such as Newcasle.
The new amount is financial doping.

[TaketheCannoli]

Utter bollocks. How do you get to set what’s acceptable “for a club like Newcastle”?

It’s going to get quite tiring being this salty.

I suppose the only way to tell would be what was the amount any company with non Saudi ties were willing to bid
Then you have your answer.
Don’t get me wrong the CL exposure raises the bar but it still stinks

Sponsorship for a club in the bottom half of the table vs one now in the champions league?

I've acknowledged that in previous post.

New sponsor is owned by the public investment fund which also owns Newcastle.
We all know what will be going on, whether the FFP rules should be in place is another debate, fact is they are, so you would think they would try and cover their tracks better than this.

[TaketheCannoli]

I’m sure their lawyers are more savvy than you or me so let’s assume it’s all above FFP board eh.
