Yeah, but you called it 'news' and then there were loads of posts kicking the idea around when it isn't even a thing. Why not wait for something concrete rather than fuelling rumour? Things are bad enough for Falcons without some of the nonsense that is being written about them.
I've heard that too.

Heard from where? 'Heard' something isn't a definitive source.
'I can see us being a serious challenger': Newcastle investment edging closer
Consultant Director of Rugby, Steve Diamond, believes the Falcons could match the achievements of the city's football club with the right investment.

Seems like it's def looking likely
Dimes wanting to bring in 20 players, suspect he will try to do what he did in Worcester a lot of players who didn't quite make it else where, make Falcons harder to beat then bring in a couple of big name older players to try and lead the team
Lot's of talk NUFC are buying Kingston Park god I hope Falcons don't go DMP. An away trip to Newcastle is a much better prospect than Darlington.
I think with backing Dimes can do a Dean Richards type job, but he can't bring in fans if the atmosphere is also dead. When Falcons had the United shirt and played in St James and Goneva doing Shearer celebration that is what Falcons needs.
Honestly I'm hoping that Red Bull might do a joint deal with the Saudi's let United buy and develop the stadium, play together with the women's team and host two big games at St James Park or something

Yeah thats what im hoping. KP can be noisy place when the teams going well. But its been that long since. IF they want they have the option to develop the North and East stand...but at the moment the plan should be looking to fill the current 10k capacity regularly.

Yeah i liked that shirt.
We (at KP) all liked the green and White we've used recently as that went back to our Newcastle Gosforth days. But if this is confirmed as it hoped, then Red Bull might have different ideas.

Home kit black and white hoops with green trim.
Away green with white trim.
Oh!!
Just like NUFC kit, where everyone questioned the green being Saudi.
It was Gosforth Green after all....

The Prem can’t afford to carry passenger clubs and it will be interesting to see what happens at Falcons for sure.
Assuming the deal goes through, having a bit of cash and bringing in shedloads of new players doesn’t automatically translate into a cohesive team though - it’s a different sort of challenge that will still need skilful management by Dimes and the coaching team.

Red Bull's talks on taking over the Falcons now making the more mainstream papers. Through if the news tonight will affect it remains to be seen.
Yeah still very much media blackout as far as we can see. Big discussion about it on the Falcons forum.
Hopefully something positive will come out soon.
