Newcastle's cup win and Saudi Arabia - how do fans feel?

Seventy years. That is how long Newcastle United waited to win a domestic trophy.

And their fans have made up for the seven-decade drought with the way they have celebrated their Carabao Cup final victory over Liverpool.

There have been tears, relief, pride - and, most of all, happiness.

But for some - and it does not appear to be a view shared widely among Newcastle fans - there is regret.

And that relates to the club's £305m takeover by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) three years and five months ago.
