Premier League: Newcastle United clear to loan Saudi Pro League players after vote - BBC Sport
13 teams voted against it, but were 1 vote short.
How do you think this will impact the league going forward?
Which teams do you think voted in favour of it?
I cant wait to see Neymar and Benzema play for Newcastle lol
Honestly though, as unfair as this is, I always did want to see some of those guys play in the premier league.
Also how stupid is Sheikh Mansour that he never thought of doing this. (Edit, I think this is wrong, but it kind of exposes how much smarter the Saudi ownership is than Sheikh Mansour and his staff.)
How exactly is this a Newcastle issue when the majority of PL clubs voted against the rule changes? Yet another example that fans shouldnt sit on their high horses as the clubs know they are involved in shady shit
I have it on good authority that Stavely voted multiple times with a variety of funny moustaches and glasses
lol at all the toon and city fans on here coping by saying “ya well point to evidence of it happening/it hasnt happened yet so chill out”… ya cause the strategy of wait and see if it even happens has worked so well in the past (chelseas abuse of extra long contracts, city paying itself with sponsors, citys 115 charges, and on and on…) the prem tried (and unfortunately failed) to address an issue here before it became an issue. yall need to stop with all the arguments and realize its not whether newcastle or city or whoever actually do it. its that NO club should be able to do it. If its not against the rules then it would be stupid for any club to not take neves, veiga, mané on loan for cheap. for once the prem was proactive about an issue where we could see the writing on the wall…and it failed.
p.s. if/when one of the clubs signs one of these players on loan or for some unreasonably lopsided terms…will yall be back on here admitting you were wrong? or just moving the goalposts? (i.e. well player x isnt even that good so stop complaining…not against the rules anyway.) now: we havent done it stop whingeing…after theyve done it: its not against rules…hes not even good… yall voted to stop it!
