The week gets no better for Newcastle
Their owner and chairman, who denied the fact when passing the Premier League fit and proper test, are now arguing in a USA Court that they are emanations of the Saudi state. Maybe we should pause awhile whilst this and the City case unfold …..
"They [the chairman and owners] are a sovereign instrumentality of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and a sitting minister of the Saudi government, and they cannot be compelled to provide testimony and documents in a US proceeding unless their conduct - not LIV's or anyone else's - is truly the 'gravamen' of the case." Newcastle's takeover by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) was approved after "legally binding assurances" the Saudi government would not have any control over the club.” |
