Good for the club for footballing reasons, bad for us because some fans see criticism of the Saudis as criticism of the club, and as their identify is tied up with the area/club etc it's also an attack on themselves. Idiots, basically.

I've discussed on here before that in an ideal world it would have been stopped. Clubs being bought to sportswash in this way should not be allowed. But this is the world we live in. Money talks and they've got loads of it


I'd prefer the human rights abuses to stop

Good for footballing reasons.

Sportswashed apologist.

Job done MBS you genocidal twat.
 

This thread is becoming rather tedious. About time it was shut down, it's the same inane arguments over and over again. Can we not just agree that Saudi Arabia is a primitive state whose values and justice system belong in the middle ages. They make the Taliban look progressive.

But......they have a few quid in the bank, loads of oil and they own the Mags!!!

Any one of those reasons should be enough to kick them out of any involvement in British football.

However their propaganda campaign seems to be working quite well as they've convinced the dozy fuckwits they'll be in the champions league next year!
 
Question before bed,
Since Chelsea were funded by abra for all them years , should they keep all the cups and prizes . The Tour de France has no winner now for all the years lance won. Guess team sport is different , what real impact has it had on the club or their former chairman

No you wouldn't. You couldn't care less. You have said so on here. I would like the human right abuse to stop, mbs to be humiliated, and these murderers totally out of the beautiful game. Why does there have to be a preference. Do you want them at your club?

They should keep it as they didnt cheat to get them really. Any future trophies for the Mags won't count as they are owned by an actual murderer which is illegal anyway.

When have I said I couldn't care less about human rights abuses? Please, pack it in man.

I want the funding at the club, obviously. Money rules the game now, without it we're going nowhere. I don't want human rights abuses to continue, or to be associated with my club. Would much prefer none shithouse owners to take over with decent financial clout

Agreed. Don’t read it that often but every time I do it’s the same people saying the same things.

Like I say in the post you've just quoted, I'd much prefer someone with an immaculate human rights record to their name took over instead

I said middle eastern culture. Not Saudi culture. Not wahabism. Dunno how many times it needs to be said to be honest. It's just beyond your grasp.

Was the middle east a liberal society before wahabism like?

Taking over Newcastle was going to change them ! Even local MP’s and Newcastle LGBT said so when they thought they were to become bigger than Man City

I didn't think so. More lies and false accusations

Is it a lie that Newcastle Utd are ultimately owned by a murderous state ?

When you said

"other clubs can have evil owners, why can't we?"


That very sentence means you dont give a shit about kids being married off to old men so long as they buy a few relegated players
