This. And that would have been fine with its member clubs provided the league sufficiently greased the wheel & wet their beaks. But they didnt, hence the very real backlash. I suspect that the PL will eventually do so to soothe relations & keep the big 6 happy. Especially if they dont want that Super League to go ahead.
Got a ton of respect for Palace fans
The police have to investigate any complaint. It doesn't mean anything will come of it and I hope that's the case as I cant see what they have done wrong.Ffs
Police investigate anti-takeover banner
Police are investigating a banner by Crystal Palace fans at their match on Saturday criticising the Saudi Arabian-led takeover of Newcastle.www.bbc.co.uk
Yep let's waste police time investigating the banner and not the large numbers of crooks and State agents being allowed to run football teams...

Lots of Newcastle fans were gleefully quoting the tweet saying the police will be seeing you so they have clearly reported it.
Just how fucking dumb and scummy are Newcastle fans by the way.
We had someone on here trying to push that agenda. People are ridiculous.I'm finding the whataboutery hilarious. There is one guy in social media who is telling me that Joe Lewis' Argentinian land dispute is comparable to the Saudi's human rights abuses ?
Swiss Ramble has done a twitter thread on how Newcastle could start to spend the cash and stay within FFP rules. It’s depressing though. They’ll soon be up there.
Newcastles problem is that they are starting from such a low base.Genuinely don’t see difference between what Everton have done in last 5 years and what Newcastle can do. Everton have spent over half a billion and got nowhere. Tbh we’ve spent £350m in 3 seasons and gone backwards. Yes they are likely to improve in next 5 years. But they will have to get everything right to be in and around top 4/top 6 by then. They will likely get there eventually but really could take a decade.
But what they can do to expedite the process is throw as much money as humanly possible at a top coach, get in a Conte or a Pep or pretty much anyone and get them to join in, that will help with recruitment/winning a trophy, and before anyone says neither of them would join I get that they might not but someone of that caliber wouldn't mind the looks of 15 mil a year and complete control of transfers + they all have egos they could think they are the ones to cement themselves by taking a team like that to the champions leagueGenuinely don’t see difference between what Everton have done in last 5 years and what Newcastle can do.

Should be passed on to the fans of other clubs so that it’s a permanent fixture whenever Newcastle play away. Though I doubt City fans will want to wave it around.No police action on Palace fans' banner
Police say no further action will be taken after a banner displayed by Crystal Palace fans targeted the Saudi Arabian-led takeover of Newcastle United.www.bbc.co.uk
