Wir sind Newcastle United

I love sport documentaries but this is as staged as it can be. Every bit is very carefully managed and not natural at all. Just a big PR campaign by the Saudi owners. It doesn't show any defeats, almost like they didn't happen. But at the same time tries to crate tension, it's really poor tv, Was this directed and produced by the owners? I know the new owners need to create a more positive outlook on the club externally but at least try and be genuine. The fans are happy as they've got money so they've soon forgotten about their morals. They've quickly moved ok from the protests when they we're struggling at the bottom.

This great series brilliantly captures the essence of the iconic football club. It not only delves into the thrilling matches and on-field triumphs but also provides a captivating glimpse into the rich history and passionate fan culture of Newcastle United. The storytelling is both riveting and heartwarming, making it a must-watch for football enthusiasts and even those less familiar with the sport. The series successfully combines drama, emotion, and the sheer excitement of football, making it a delightful experience for viewers of all backgrounds. I binge watched all the episodes without a break!

Firstly while not a Newcastle United fan I was looking forward to this series, however I was left disappointed.

Total PR project, cameras on the owners during games, players going back to their communities. Only Eddie Howe come across as genuine and some of the fans, thankfully there was no Jason Tindall

The business side was interesting but there was too much of the board and not enough of players if you compare to All or Nothing.

We all know it's Saudi state owned so the 4 episodes tried to dispel this and brush under the carpet the human rights violations, the theme seemed FFP is stopping them doing what they want and it's all for the love of the fans, as I said total PR BS.

Nothing but true facts in this documentary and it hurts other clubs & fans. All the stops the "Big 6" tried to pull to stop Newcastle spending money while those same clubs spent hundreds of millions. Other fans of other clubs know this but there are a minority who are basically jealous. I am a Newcastle fan and I have always been proud to be. Heard nobody saying a word when Ashley was rinsing us but as soon as billions come Newcastle's way it is panic stations for the PL. Loved this Documentary with all the facts. If this was another club like Man City, I would watch it and give an honest review and not a bad one just because it wasn't the team I support.

I was looking forward to seeing which team would be highlighted for the 2022-23 season for this documentary format. Sadly this was disappointing choice. Why give Newcastle United this platform? This is Saudi "sportswashing" plain and simple. There are so many other teams to choose from. As mentioned, this is a PR campaign to try and legitimatize Saudi investment in a Premier League team. Most of the documentary covers the investment group trying to earn money instead of on the field action. I am curious of the money involved to get this produced. Now I feel in some way I am complicit for having watched this show.
