I best get down to the shops and get some Brown Ale in. A lot of it. There will be some celebrations when it is announced.

Wow, that shows just how deep the pockets of Newcastle's new owners are - easily more wealth than all the other Premier League club owners put together and, while not a guarantee of success on the pitch, it should make for some very exciting times for Newcastle!

Having said that, has the takeover actually completed - don't think I've seen anything to confirm it has but perhaps I've missed something?

Seems a date that’s being bandied about in the ME.

Maybe need to get Eid sorted out, which I think has just started today?

It's all getting a bit tiresome now, I've got Blunderland fans trolling me and I can't say anything in case it all goes up in smoke.

So if that’s a clear breach why has it not been just called off?

Yep. The hand wringing from the press and them in particular is obnoxious. If they can somehow weave Trump into this moral crusade then they will be over the moon.

The next step must be to find out that Dominic is part of the Saudi royal family.
