Walley from AA WITH …
They should invest to the community too like City do.
They are investing into the community, he’s said that in this interview
Did you not watch the interview?
@petestreet100 i do. But they need to pull it off no matter what the obstacle is
@freakyholic they will don’t worry about that
He did say that lol and even amanda
They can just buy the premier league, all the football clubs in it, uefa, fifa, and all their sponsors. They may as well at this point.
@petestreet100 if u think they can pump dirty money in like city were allowed to think again, the FA learned from there mistakes with city… No Saudi company can sponsor Newcastle… Which is money laundering, they’ll have to invest the “right way” so well see how this experiment goes without state sponsored doping being allowed
@BarebackBarbarians FC Haha they will get around it by charging Saudia Arabian football clubs £30 Million a pop for pres season friendlies, or charging £100Milllion for a club box, there is loads of ways around the punitive rules and every club trying to enforce them is wasting their time and may as well get used to beinig 2nd best. That includes City, who can’t even buy the champions league.
@Stephen James lie about what exactly? The fact is, the Saudis own Newcastle and that means there’s a level of love there because we are their asset, they’ve said they want to turn us into a power house that’s love to my ears mate… You stay there being jealous, we’re good!!
@BarebackBarbarians FC we’re allowed to spend 190m in January, what you’re saying isn’t necessary
@petestreet100 is it we already?
please buy man united
Once the money comes rolling in there’s only going to be 1 United 🖤🤍🖤🤍
@aZZa Dee 😂
😅😂
You only get your legend back, Steve ‘Cabbage’ Bruce.
Thank you for buying our club , made dreams come true
@Gregg 1975 Yes. I know. Both are invested into a a club owned by murderers. So what’s your point?
@Michael Airley how safe r the underage girls u teach that’s my point 🤔
@Michael Airley cmon Michael there’s more to it here….. you know man utd have had lucrative sponsors with Saudi telecoms for many year’s, they never seem to get mentioned, they mustn’t be the nasty murdering type who are involved with them eh. BTW I hope you are not using an I phone
@Gregg 1975 Let’s not stray from the conversation. Newcastle are owned by murderers. End of story.
@Michael Airley wrong!!! PIF have yet to be charged with murder neither have the reubens, you’re talking drivel
CNBC should sack this woman. The nerve of her asking if he is a betting man.
Why?
@Michael Airley because (practising) muslims dont bet, forbidden in Islam
I don’t want your dirty money in our city.
@Rido Vercascade 👍
The more the better. Fuck the corrupt big 6, its time for NUFC to take over the prem!!!
Move city then 👋🏻
I bet you’re a makem
I bet u r man u fan, Jealous of Newcastle.
Yep, enhanced with Jamal’s blood
@oluwatoyin kushalu
Yes, he got justice, and all the perpetrators of the crime were sentenced to murder.. Khashoggi’s family were satisfied with the verdict.
@سلطان الذبياني some would say one got away
Bless 🧂🧂🧂
@oluwatoyin kushalu
You must understand what an idiot, the case is completely closed
@سلطان الذبياني just ignore him, the jealousy is overwhelming his tiny brain so he’s doing what he can to antagonise everyone.
Thank you Saudi Arabia for putting Newcastle fans out of their misery. The other fans are only jealous because you didn’t go in for them.
The Phoenix has rising.
@سلطان الذبياني The troll is from India…
@Ry Rilo oh why r u talking like that when your own people beg to work in Saudi, your country is the shithole of this earth where 200 women get raped every 1 minute
@Satnist ..so you people are going to insult the whole world to try and guess where i’m from…you really are a Satanist like your name suggests😆
Totally agree. It’s pathetic how the 18 PL clubs all voted to prevent sponsorship by Saudi companies that they own but said nothing when Ashley renamed/sponsored the stadium the Sports Direct Arena. Nothing about Man City’s owners or Leicester City sponsorship and calling their stadium the King Power Stadium, owned by their owners
Hwtl
They know oil is gonna end soon soon. So they r just finding new businesses to invest sports and e-gaming along with technology r the next biggest thing to capitalise. For them money is more important than the club itself. They r just intrested in ways to sustain their wealth which in turn they invest in technology to further increase their power. simple as that.
@سلطان الذبياني idk know what you understood from my comment I said they already know that that’s y they r shifting to other businesses using the money they already posses to sustain the wealth they currently have
its not a bad thing. if only poor countries follow this model.
They dont depend on oil actually
Don’t worry. We have hundred of wells that known and there are more not been explored yet. However, another resources not bad idea to move forward to be top country in the world.
@Ali Alshehri well said 👌🏼
Community? They’re coming for what they can get from them.
no more like create new jobs and affordable housing in Newcastle. Since they are likely following models of man city whom are owned by Abu Dhabi, invested heavily in the community of Manchester and the housing and there was considerable uptick economically of the surrounding environment, these people are beyond filthy rich, the money they use to improve reputation in foreign communities so they amount of money they spend as long they achieve that
All toons thumb down! They tried to trip up Saudis and that’s racist in my books!
This is pathetic journlism. Why didn’t she ask about Jamal Khashoggi?
I see you interested in the case of the murder of one person, all the perpetrators of which were tried and sentenced to twenty years in prison.
But the strange thing is I do not see you interested in asking about killing millions of Iraqis in 2003 led by George Bush and Tony Blair
Tell me, have any of them been tried yet?
@yasser sarhani no, democratic colonialists can kill people with impunity. It’s okay for them
Why should she ask the Minister of Finance about him ?!!
This is the Minister of Finance and not the Attorney General .. Do you need a large microscope!
Are you on Saturn?
Khashoggi’s family after the trial of the accused of death and imprisonment in court
The family pardoned their father’s killers.
In Islamic law, the family of the murdered has the right to demand their right to execute the murderers or to pardon them
The politicization of the case was stupidity on the part of some Western countries. Turkey, where most political prisoners are located, does not have the right to talk about human rights, and America does not have the right to talk about human rights after the Abu Ghraib prison case, and Britain does not have the right to politicize the case and so far we do not know who killed the princess Diana
France has no right to talk about human rights, and it is still killing civilians in Africa and stealing its treasures, and it is proud of the museum of skulls for the heroes of the Algerian jihad.
Political blackmail failed against Saudi Arabia The hyenas returned to their caves
THIS IS FOOT BALL NOT POLITIC
Oh ..you Magpies love the terrorists now .. huh?
Murderers og a Washington Post journalist.
Really I am sorry for you . Weak as much as your comment. I don’t need to learn English. these words are enough for you. Pathetic
@Ali Alshehri poor baby. Murderers
@Michael Airley cry more 😂
@Ali Alshehri I’m fine thanks. I have a very clear contience. Enjoy the blood money guys.
@Michael Airley ok thanks . 😂
I don’t think his a betting man 👀
Investing in Newcastle is a very great step, this will benefit the Saudi Public Investment Fund, and Newcastle Club 🇸🇦👏
Sportswashing 🤡
@Jibril plastic foreigner who chose juve. Do one you complete irrelevance
Gona be Leeds next club to be taken over now they are solid and sound they look a great investment
🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍 NUFC
our tax money being put to good use
@Looshroom because u said it like it’s something big or some kind of problem it’s no big deal
@GOLDEN I didn’t say anything like that, I just said there was 15% VAT ( Value added tax) and that’s it, I didn’t say anything else.
@Looshroom it’s okay let’s not argue further it’s pointless
@Looshroom there is no tax in saudi stfu
@Looshroom
Its worthless lol it aint like the us or other countries you guys are clowns
If they wanted a challenge they should also buy arsenal. We are shit too guys 😂
Not quite as shit as NUFC, though
I Duno mate, clearly you haven’t seen us play 😂
Say what you want about Saudis but they’re hard working people’s. Cos boy have they got a lot of work to do. You couldn’t buy a worse club. From top to bottom, a full rebuild. Players, facilities, the lot. Club been bled dry for years. Someone cleaned the windows and it made the chronicle. That’s says it all lol.
That’s what’s gonna make it all the more satisfying seeing the transformation
As long as they get quality playes and coaches like conte simone guadeola zidane tucheck and players like icardi calvert cheiasa lewendolski any players with good goals to games ratio
We love you Saudi Arabia. Kind regards, from Newcastle
Thank you from all us Newcastle fans ⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️🇸🇦🇬🇧
We understand the whole concept about investment and its a good thing. Especially during this covid situation. A club like Newcastle United fc are one of the lucky ones and I personally think fully deserved to be one of the best clubs in the world in the near future. Thank you Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
Amen
@Tegridy Geordie do you need some mothafucking tegridy?
But there’s a strange problem,money laundering dirty money.. So basically one individual billionaire from Saudi Arabia didn’t buy the club but the state of Saudi Arabia bought the club? I just don’t get how this is allowed, it’s one think when 1 billionaire buys ur club like FSG with Liverpool or Roman with Chelsea but when a WHOLE COUNTRY are allowed to buy clubs.. That’s state sponsored doping.. The FA after seeing how city are state sponsored doping what was traditionally a small club in Manchester city how can u allow another club to be bought by dirty oil money
Thank you for investing in Newcastle utd, I was starting to think I might never see us win a major trophy but you guys have now made it possible.
Loving how steadfast & unapologetic the NUFC fans are. 🖤
my cousins were the ones passed around facebook wearing the newcastle dressing gowns and newcastle towels around their heads like a turban celebrating in the street XD
As a toon fan, this video just made me almost cream my pants. ⚫⚪🇸🇦❤
Saudi Arabia MURDERS people who don’t agree with them.
Cry please . Pathetic😂
@Ali Alshehri You certainly are, sir. One day you may mature…maybe not.
@Bon Scott I hope you grown up and not be like a sheep
@Ali Alshehri Ok…you have lost me there, my friend…maybe explain what you mean ?
It’s the same old story, isn’t it? Newcastle, a small-town club trying to pretend it is a big-time club. It will never happen.
Newcastle is a big club, and it will return to lead the English Premier League again
How about the land behind the gallowgate?
Look on the upside they didn’t chop up Steve Bruce
🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
It had to take an entire nation, a Kingdom to get Mike Ashley out. Imagine that.
0.40 senses a fart
I hope PIF consider buying Arsenal next 😍
Asalamu Calaykum warahmatulahi wabarakatuhu 🤓
Head choppers United 🤷♂️
As a Newcastle fan, I thank the PIF for investing in our club. We are very fortunate and very greatful.

@BarebackBarbarians FC It’s Not the WHOLE country, it’s an Investment fund. Guess the Saudi’s want to invest in sport now.
I agree mate
@BarebackBarbarians FC Take a breath. What is your problem with the takeover?
I’m puzzled as to why Saudi Arabia would buy Newcastle United. They do know what they’ve taken on, don’t they?
they know. Sports investing is very profitable.
The Emirates started making profits from Manchester City after it made a champion team.
The Public Investment Fund has a lot of investments in many sectors and now they have started investing in sports.. See their major projects in NEOM, Qiddiya, Amaala, Red Sea Islands, Rawashin, etc
@عبدالله so it’s about the profit margin, the bottom line? At least we know.
Having owners that share our ambition for the Club area and community is all we can ask for.
🖤🤍✊🏻
As a Liverpool fan I’m really excited to see what Newcastle can be in a few years.
Thank you, Jericho. As a Newcastle fan, I hope that Liverpool wins the league this season. I can’t see Newcastle winning it this year lol
@Carl Hamilton Don’t worry your time will come,.. trust the process lol YNWA
Nice one Saudi, don’t invest in country’s that could do with your money such as third world countries and invest in country’s that don’t need it. Don’t invest in your own country and provide jobs to the poor but invest in developed countries and create jobs for them and pay them lavish wages. Don’t produce anything yourself and just buy everything from the rest of the world. I am genuinely happy for Newcastle but your ethics make me sick!
Total nonsense. The government is setting a plan to spend 27 trillion riyals on developing many things in the country, till now they spent over 2 trillion. Saudi Arabia investment’s are around the world.
Typical hater with inferiority complex towards Saudi Arabians
Wow let’s hope Newcastle utd begin their long journey to create a trophy tradition that matches Liverpool FC, Manchester United. The start of the 21st century looks bright for Tyneside. The Geordies deserve success After all their support for the club. Newcastle is the sleeping giant that is about to be awoken. The 2nd coming of the entertainers
So happy to see the joy in faces of Magpies’s. .
Those fans really needed the happiness.
They are trying to buy a clear conscience. It is nothing more than buying a new washing machine. Just a facade and the fans can’t see it.

I believe no body in your country are good enough to invest and improve these clubs. Therefore, the PL allows the other investors around the word to develop and improve your country league because it’s bring a huge income to your country. Also, sharing this business with many investors will bring more money and more fans to your country. Economically in main side (tourism). So uk people are smart in this manner.
Mohammed al-jadaan love ur smile when asked about the perchase of Newcastle,that smile says it all……we r taking over the premier league 😄😄😄😄😄
They should build a Keshogi statue at the grounds
We Newcastle united fans do not want your saudi dollars!!! Your human rights are atrocious!!!
Talk about yourself. The real fans are happy with it . So keep crying 😂
They sell us crude oil then use the money to buy football teams, weapons of war and expensive London apartments from our rich bastards… Thanks to electric cars, this BS will be over in a few decades…
