Yes. More so Hearn. And Vince McMahon. And the top dogs at F1 and UFC. They took blood money. NUFC are owned by a tyrant. Your club is now a propaganda tool for a dictator. This is what sportswashing is all about. That's why PIF invest in western companies.

They invest in small percentages of Western companies to make money. They're well aware that oil is going to be a declining revenue area as environmental concerns increase, and need to replace that. Simple as that. The kinds of percentages they're buying are comparable to any other investment fund.

Quick research tells me the Dreyfuss family recently sold a large part of one of their business to the Abu Dhabi investment fund. Amnesty International also publish every human rights breach that currently take place in said country.

Do you hate your own owners and if so, how do you show this?

what's your actual endgame? You trying to get a load of Sunderland fans to tell you it's all ok and celebrate nufc becoming the richest club in the world?
Surely that's the definition of wasting your time? You 'd be better off doing something more constructive. Haven't you got any mates ffs??

The bloke ahead of me in Sports Direct bought a pair of Nike 3/4 pants. He looked a lot like MBS

Do you hate your new owners and if so how will you show this

Right, so when it comes to your owners getting 800m worth of blood money it's fine, but when ours get 300m worth of blood money it's truly awful. Even though both countries have horrific human rights track records? Granted Saudi Arabia's is worse.

I don't think anyone is under assumption that the Louis-Dreyfus family are saints. The business world is murky to say the least. Margarita Louis-Dreyfus sold 45% not Kryil. Kyril Louis-Dreyfus owns Sunderland AFC. Abu Dhabi has no connection with Sunderland AFC or our owner.

You are stay to show your true colours.

You’ve not answered my point about the 3/4 pants

You didn't answer why you're calling us mentalists.

Why are you calling us mentalists because we didn't interpret a statement in the right way according to you?

And, if was an innocent statement, why retract it?

It's his mother isn't it? His money was his inheritance - of course they are f***ing linked :lol: when she pops it, who benefits ?

No connection.

Because you think a reporter for a big firm such as Sky would openly condone the actions of a tyrant publically as opposed to actually viewing the tweet for what it was 🤣

If a quick Google search counts as that. You didn't comment on whether that's ok though? Is it ok for your owners to work in partnership with the Abu Dhabi investment fund?

The Louis Dreyfus family doesn’t own Sunderland AFC. Kyril Louis Dreyfus owns the majority of shares. So Kyril works in partnership alone does he?
