Does he still have links with rangers?
Not at board level, the current lot bought his shares off him.
Sports Direct do have an ongoing contract where they are allowed to match offers to supply strips and suchlike - he's been in court recently to shoot down their Hummel deal as he wasn't offered a chance to match it. Final judgement pending on how much he's owed
 
we made it through group stage in 2002


don’t let facts get in the way of his theory though.

Nope. The competition was diluted back then. They failed to get out the group stage both times they entered.

After the second round of groups it was quarter final stage.

They finished 3rd in the first group stage and 3rd in the second group stage of 2001.

They have never reached the knockout stage of the champions League.

Remind me when Sunderland did?
 
The Saudis have limitless wealth and companies. They will have learned from the mistakes Man City have made and will restructure deals to get money into the mags.
The good thing is the Mags will still have to go up against:
Liverpool - Billionaire Owners and top 5 club in the world
Man Utd - Billionaire Owners and top 5 club in the world
Man City - Billionaire Owners
Chelsea - Billionaire Owners
Spurs - Billionaire Owners
Arsenal - Billionaire Owners
Leicester - Billionaire Owners
Everton - Billionaire Owners

The FA and UEFA will be looking at sponsorship deals even closer now. If Saudi Telecom suddenly put in a £100m a season shirt deal for them it will be investigated. I do hope they rename the stadium as the Al Rajhi Arena (because they are all radgies).
 
I've never understood the massive problems that so many mags have with him. He hasn't spent money like either of the Manchester teams, Chelsea or Liverpool but very few teams have. They are mid table in the Premier league, somewhere they haven't been above for almost all of their existence. Like people have said, he spent £100M in the Championship and has the club in a much better financial situation than it was in when he bought it. He's just bought a CF for £40M, it's not his fault that whoever it was who spent his money bought shite.

So yes, I'd be happy to have him at SAFC.

the saudis have kless wealth now than at ay time i the past foprty years..the fud has enormous commitments to meet..itb has promised the king it will spend billions in saudi..and needs "every penny it can get" right now..
here is alink from the FT outlining their strategy and the financial constraints they are uder..despite the money..
 
With no games or owt I Haven't really been on here much lately, but I dare bet with Ashley selling up there's been a massive invasion of mags and obviously Sima being his normal snidey self.

Am I right?
Morning Edward. I trust you and the family are well.
youd think the mags would be too busy being excited at the prospect of their potential takeover to bother with little old insignificant us..... wouldn’t you? And yet 😂😂😂
as an aside, is that staveley woman Lee Ryders mam do you think?
