The game of golf is already worldwide! How will Saudi blood money grow the game ? Advance their careers ? Most are senior players who have made a fortune from the tour they have now stuck two fingers up to !
How the sports world have allowed Saudi despots to simply buy their way in is staggering

Don't think so like. Nothing that I can remember immediately springing to mind. Always had friends, neighbours, colleagues as Sunderland fans so never really done all the teeth gnashing. Least not since I was a teenager maybe.

I hoped they moved on in a good way, and I'm sure they loved being with you, football allegiances aside haha.

I personally think he would command a semi decent price and we would (and should) sell if we do get a good offer.

Yeah, best get back to hostilities lol.
Seriously, I don’t think He fits in with your plans and I think he is in the departure lounge. But that is just my opinion

I don't disagree. I think there's every chance he goes. I think we can't afford a good game 1 in 7 or 8 games and I think his presence holds us back at times. He's an adama traore type player for me, or Sessegnon was for you years back. I truly hope if he stays he proves me wrong like.

But you're the richest club in the world!

Or were those fat Geordies with tea towels on their heads and bad B.O. telling lies?

I guess on some metric we are indeed the wealthiest club in the world. On another we have the wealthiest owner...... that said he is categorically not our owner thus we are not the wealthiest club in the world..... clear as mud!!
Regardless it is one thing having the money, whoever owns us. It is another being willing and/or able to spend it.

Convinced the Mags players and staff got the same then. I bet theres was more in depth too to include the weird team photos and owners having kickabouts etc

Poor Beheaddie forgot his before one of his press conferences.

He knew more about Martians than his Saudi employers.

I bet he hasn't had any time during the close season to swot up on them either...
