  Newcastle United: Amanda Staveley Subjected To Unfortunate Comments

  Amanda Staveley, PCP Partners queen and darling of Newcastle United fans, has been subjected to some pretty grim comments recently. Ms Staveley is, of course, the driving force that put together the consortium which is currently bidding to buy Newcastle United from Mike Ashley. A consortium which includes PCP Partners, the Reuben Brothers and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. Wor Amanda is currently involved in a high court battle with Barclay’s Bank for a cool £1.6bn which she says is owed to PCP Partners for […]

  Newcastle United v Manchester City Debacle: The Final Word!

  I’m sure the pain of watching that embarrassing first half “performance” against Manchester City in the FA Cup will stay with us for some time. Trying to play the Rafa way without Rafa was suicidal, and so it proved. Below are the thoughts of our UTD111 Forum member “Ghostfacekillah” who speaks his mind and doesn’t hold back! It’s the final word before we move on to Bournemouth! The first half was entirely Bruce’s fault, the way he set the players up, they were on a […]

  Get Ready For The Next Newcastle United Rollercoaster Ride!

  Had my fingers crossed in the last week hoping that there might actually have been some sort of announcement to say things had been finalised on the transfer of our club to Amanda Staveley and her chums to finally put us out of our misery.

  Newcastle United Season Ticket Issues!

  This article is written on the assumption that the proposed takeover of Newcastle United goes ahead sometime in the coming weeks. Leaving aside the whole takeover business for a while, lets talk about season tickets for St James’ Park. There are a number of practical issues which will need to be resolved both in the world of football generally, and at Newcastle United in particular. These issues affect both the club and its long-suffering fans. For example, much has been written about whether the 2019/2020 […]

  Why Objections To The Newcastle United Takeover Must Fail

  As we know by now, there have been objections to the takeover of Newcastle United which we are told is currently underway and seemingly fairly advanced. The main objection targets the involvement of the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund who, if the deal goes through, are taking an 80% holding, with the Reuben Brothers and Amanda Staveley’s PCP taking 10% each. Amnesty International have pointed out the Saudi government’s awful human rights record, Kashoggi murder, bombing of Yemen (although strangely no-one raises the fact that […]
