BBG News

Overflowing with joy, Ant and Dec cheered exuberantly when Newcastle netted a goal against Liverpool at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.

Newcastle United football team is trying to secure their initial significant trophy since they lifted the FA Cup in 1955, thus breaking a 70-year trophy winless streak that has been known as the “Toon.

Saturday Night Takeaway hosts, and Newcastle natives, Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly celebrate as Dan Burn scored the first in the game just moments before half-time.

The images revealed that the duo were wearing their Newcastle scarves with pride, slightly nervously observing the action unfold from the stadium seats.

Ant and Dec then erupted as Newcastle scored their first goal, only to secure another soon after. 

The Magpies aspire to snap a 70-year trophyless streak when they face Arne Slot’s impressive Reds, who may be feeling deflated following their elimination from the Champions League at the hands of PSG in the recent matches.

I’m getting another shot at winning the EFL Cup with Newcastle, after missing out three years ago when we lost 2-0 to Manchester United in the final of 2023. This time around, I’m determined to make it count under the guidance of coach Eddie Howe.

On the night before that game, the Toon took to Trafalgar Square to make their presence felt in London with a massive turnout. 

In October, it emerged that TV personalities Ant and Dec supposedly aided in publicizing the Saudi Public Investment Fund’s acquisition of Newcastle United football club.

The Tyneside stars were asked to promote an article about opposition to the Premier League failing to approve the Saudi Public Investment Fund’s takeover, it has been reported.

In WhatsApp messages The Telegraph report they have seen, former Magpies director Amanda Staveley promised that Ant and Dec would ‘push’ the article – and within four minutes they had shared it on Twitter.

A piece published in the Shields Gazette last October discussed a fan group asserting that the Premier League may have violated U.K. antitrust regulations by postponing a takeover.

According to The Telegraph, two days later Ant and Dec’s account on the platform, which is now called X, shared another article from the same publication answering questions about the progress of the takeover.

In the summer of 2020 the Premier League refused to sanction the takeover, which involved a consortium backed by the Public Investment Fund (PIF) of Saudi Arabia, amid concerns over links to the Saudi state.

Initially, I found myself heartbroken when my beloved group had to call off the deal due to their inability to establish a clear boundary between themselves and the Saudi royal court, under the leadership of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
