In other news and subsequent to some heavily worded but polite emails to management, I received a written and heartfelt verbal apology today, along with a "This has given me an opportunity to reflect on my own actions."

Got wrongly accused of something yesterday and received no apology. Threats and demands made, and made to feel like I'm incompetent, on the basis of them not doing their job and reading the notes properly. Decided I'm not having it and will be complaining.

🇶🇦 Richard Keys Drops Newcastle Sale "Bombshell": Fact or FRiction?
In a report that could signal a massive shift in the Premier League landscape, veteran broadcaster Richard Keys has claimed that the Saudi Public Investment Fund is looking to offload Newcastle United. While the news is shocking on face value, I'm personally viewing his 'whisper' with a healthy dose of skepticism given hairy hands history with the club! .
Writing on his personal blog, the beIN Sports presenter suggested that the ownership project, which began with a £305m takeover in 2021, may be reaching its conclusion. Keys claimed that he has heard "whispers" that the Saudis are looking to sell, noting that while there are interested parties, the PIF is holding out for a £1 billion valuation. He added that a figure closer to £500 million is likely more realistic.
Despite the gravity of these claims, I'm taking his report with a heavy grain of salt. Keys has a well-documented history of "anti-Newcastle" rhetoric, having previously admitted he wished the takeover had happened to "any other club." His past predictions regarding the initial 2021 sale were famously inconsistent, leading me to think his latest 'bombshell' is a calculated attempt to stir the pot during a low point in the season.
Furthermore, the geopolitical context cannot be ignored. Keys is based in Qatar with beIN Sports, and given the complex regional rivalries involving Saudi Arabia, critics will argue that his narrative may be influenced by his employers rather than genuine inside knowledge of the PIF's boardroom.
The rumored £1 billion asking price represents a massive markup from the original purchase price, and if Keys is correct about the £500 million market value, any potential deal would be a long way off. For now, we are left to wonder if this is the beginning of the end for the PIF era or simply more speculative noise from a long-time critic. The coming months will be pivotal in determining whether the club's recent struggles lead to a change in players, management or a complete change in the hierarchy.... or proof that Richard Keys chats 💩!!!!

@MumbrianSpinner I know the instinct is to go full “not having this” fair enough 😄, but the best play
calm, factual, professional, documented
That’s what wins these situations.
