I was at that, as I was working in Whitefield near Bury that afternoon. It was only the Papa-John’s equivalent, the Auto Windscreens I think?City's version was much worse - 3,007 in 1998.
To be accurate the bloke in 1782 was left to hang for over 20 minutes before they cut him up. Pretty civilised really but still too good for the likes of Jimmy SavilleWhilst fair game to highlight such practices in middle east, it's really not that long ago in our own history that we did such things.
Quick bit of googling shows we last beheaded someone in 1747 (Jacobite Lord Lovat). We last hung drawn and quartered someone in 1782 (possibly the most revolting form of execution ever dreamt up by mankind). We last hanged someone in 1964, within the lifetime of quite a few on here and plenty of countries outwith the middle east still do execute people, most notably our "special relationship ally" USA where people are barbarically electrocuted or poisoned to death.
Guessing they'll go the same way as man city and chelsea. City had done nothing since the mid 70's and chelsea even further back. Both treading water when it was a more level playing field. Then the obscene new owners 'invest' and the shopping spree begins.
No doubt Newcastle will follow their tried and tested formula .... throw enough
at it and buy your way to the promised land.
Was going to say “even further back than the 70’s” when the 70’s was probably Chelsea’s most successful period in history until more recently.Not remotely true to compare with Chelsea situation.

Abramovic's money is probably as dirty as the Saudi's and the UAE's
