October 7, 2021, is a day Newcastle United fans will never forget. That was the date in which Public Investment Fund, PCP Capital Partners and RB Sports & Media completed their takeover of the club.
The news was met with widespread approval by Newcastle fans across the glove, who celebrated the end of Mike Ashley’s tenure and the start of a new era.
The takeover was a long time coming. In April 2020, ESPN reported that the Saudi-lead consortium, who have considerable wealth, were on the cusp of a deal.
On that back of that news, The Irish Guy attempted to predict Newcastle’s squad in 2022 on HITC Sport’s YouTube channel. It’s now 2022, so how did their predictions turn out?
