Did they not?

Not an armband in sight!

Wonderful goal from Almiron.

Hate the death penalty but how does that rack up per annum by head of population, do those in Saudi Arabia get a fair trial and leave to make multiple appeals? ... Not all American states have the death penalty either. The US trend is also coming down

The American stats work out to around 1 per week, almost certainly guilty of murder, mass murder, themselves. How many of those executed by the Saudi's were for murder or even rape? How many do the Saudi's execute weekly? Saudi has around 10% of the US popualation so a factor of ten must be applied for consistency. Comparatively 40 a week?

I'm not comparing like to like figures and the American deaths per year is coming down - just showing that other countries, cultures etc kill people legally. It is irrelevant as to whether the figure is 1,000,000 or just 1 as the fact is that you can be killed legally in the USA as well as in Saudi Arabia.

I also don't know about the Saudi legal system, how fair the trials are etc but innocent people have been killed legally in other countries and the harshness of a sentence is up to the country handing out the sentence. I am sure there are several offences that if we committed in England we would get a different sentence to if we committed the offence in another country.

Again I am not defending the Saudis just pointing out that things aren't as black and white as a Newcastle shirt.

Up the Geordies. They wait a lifetime and three Saudis come along at once. King Charles and the MEP's know where to follow the Middle Eastern money never mind the Magpies.

Again I am not defending the Saudis just pointing out that things aren't as black and white as a Newcastle shirt.

But one thing is very clear. And makes the Newcastle owners wholly different from US or English owners.

It's the Saudi owners that are in charge of the system that carries out the executions there, whether through their courts or sawing apart a journalist on their orders.

English or American owners are not responsible for the legal systems in their countries.

Were the Geordies OK with you in their end, Mental.

Yea tbf, they were sound, I didn't advertise the fact too much, just when rodders had that breakaway and I let loose a bit, my geordie mates were saying I was on day release so they just laughed along, we went back to their pub afterwards and had a good night of it.
Like down at spurs before xmas, they all knew we were Leeds but because we were with a gang of spurs we were fine, again, we didn't do anything daft, plus they won so it was happy clappy for them.
Normally in away ends we keep a low profile and be respectful, thing is, your'e soon sussed when they score and your sat there looking fed up.

I've sat in the Spurs & Hull ends, no fun whatsoever!

Joelinton was stopped in the early hours driving his car and has subsequently been arrested for drink driving.

Due to appear in court

What a twat

Probably get off with a lot less than we would as per usual

[1964white]

The Magpies haven't conceded a goal in their last five Premier League matches

[Jaydog]

The polar opposite of managers. Howe - Marsch
He started from the ground up. Watch their defence. A well oiled machine.

Signed Gordon for £45 million

If gordon is worth that, harrison is worth £50 million, that means our board will accept around £17 million.

His stats aren’t great, but he is only young.

Clearly, Howe thinks he can improve him, may look money well spent in a few years.

This is true, hope EH knocks that horrible streak out of him though.

Have to say I like Eddie Howe, I’d trust him with most players.

It’s a dream job, of course, taking over at the start of a big takeover with money to burn. I can see him being there for years and years, unless he takes the England job at some point.
