Saudi really in everyone’s heads

I lived there and it’s not the hellhole you make it out to be. It’s not perfect but it’s become a fucking scapegoat now. And people hating on the traditional outfits (Gerrard, Ronaldo) shows how close it’s got to flat out racism

Not everything is Saudi Arabia’s fault and the country is very much evolving

Newcastle used to get such timings in the past as well. I remember it was common to see Newcastle and Manchester United play on Sundays.

It’ll be no accident, they’ll be one of the teams that get good numbers for Sky so just one of them if it ain’t broke situations. They had a similar run of them last season.

If you think it’s good for us to have these shite late kick offs here in Australia you’re wrong. They’re shite. Glad I could help.

Cash rules everything around me

Because Saudi are paying sky sports to put Newcastle on TV. Just like they are paying the refs to be shit for every team. Saudi have also payed the PL to start removing teams. Soon it will just be Newcastle in the PL, paying a team that Saudi picks every Saturday - at 17:30.

Yes that is exactly it

We get picked for TV most weeks, I looked at last season and 27/38 of our PL games were on Sky/BT/Amazon. This season it’s 8/11 so far.

There’s only a certain number of slots available and we are playing CL this season so more likely to play the Saturday, as the Europa teams play Sunday.

It’s crazy how clueless people are.

For this case, cheque complete without VAR.

Because we’re living rent free in everyone’s head

I wish I knew. I’d much prefer the 3pm slot or earlier. I hate the Monday night football slot. That’s the worst one.

Cheque complete

It’s scandalous
