Fair play city. I couldn’t agree more. I think the raising of human rights is a very fair and amazing noble thing. I just don’t agree that I should stop supporting the club I have supported for 30 years because of something I have no control over. I, like most people believe I am a decent person who cares about others and tries my best and therefore feels a level of conflict about this.

BUT

I was a fan long before any Saudis, and probs afterwards as well. My club ties me to my city, family and friends and I simply can’t stop supporting that and being part of that as a result of who owns us

That’s a fair point
 

I don’t think anyone is suggesting you stop supporting your team! Not at all......im getting at is how welcoming (or not) the fan base are of the new owners when you look at the evidence of what they’ve done. Then there’s those changing the avatar to the new owners, I guess it could be naivety to who he is I suppose

The people posting their Saudi flags etc may be naive and I do wish people would think a bit and maybe take a second before they get carried away. But not everyone takes the time or energy to look beyond their own front door. That makes me sad but each to their own. I won’t be fashioning my tea towel into a head piece but if, and it’s still an if, we get investment that leads to something more then being an also ran then I hope to be in my seat going mental.

I guess that makes me immoral in the eyes of some and fair enough. I do think it’s a genuinely interesting debate.
 
There's one or two of them displaying some morality.

I wonder if Pete is preparing for his house to be shouted at?


i get that they are so desperate to get rid of Mike Ashley, he’s been a piss take to them....but I wouldn’t have these people as the new owners.....i wouldn’t want them

that’s just me though
 
Can’t believe you’re actually trying to compare someone who thought bad things but did nothing, with someone who is actually responsible for ordering multiple atrocities against fellow humans.

Serious question mate, why can't you believe it? They condemned Mr Ashley for his abuse/ignorance of working rights yet, even had an MP bring it up in London. These twats make Mr Ashley look like Mother Theresa but it's fine because they'll buy a new number 9.
 
In that case I'd suggest you double check what you think you are writing, unless you want to provoke a response, of course.
I usually read back through a couple of times, sometimes i miss things, I tend not to worry to much about the odd mistake, as long as people understand what I'm trying to say I'm happy.
If someone get their rocks off pointing out i said "there" when i should have said "their"

what did i get wrong by the way out of interest?

I have SEXDAILY... oops i mean DYSLEXIA.
good one that i'll have to remember that :lol::lol::lol:
 
Here's a story that may cheer up all the seething, bitter dribblers on here contributing to this 230 page thread (and still growing) ......


This reform is a momentous step forward in Saudi Arabia’s human rights agenda, and merely one of many recent reforms in the kingdom

:D
Oh
There's the half time entertainment knackered
Back to crossbar challenge then

With you saying you couldn't help yourself I thought you were admitting to your sins.

U kom my ass allaa
 
Soon as money went down that was it

this.
even If premier league tried to block it (very unlikely), MBS would overturn that with a single call to Boris.
MBS has a combination of political and economic power (wealth and access to it) that’s as great as probably anyone in the world.

assuming his interest is real - there’s no way he isn’t buying them
