Don’t bother. He has no interest in open engagement about his own club. Just some deflect banter. He’s spamming constantly and will go the journey with his other login.

At a conference today and someone from a Saudi University said “The Saudi Government own Newcastle”. Went onto say we will buy both Liverpool and Newcastle also very knowledgeable and said it wouldn’t be PIF but someone would front up the purchase.

You only oppose our takeover purely because it looks like we're on an upward trajectory and you couldn't give a monkeys about human rights in Saudi Arabia or Yemen.

Why is it so hard to grasp that being owned by one of the worlds most oppressive regimes (which is actively engaged in widespread murder and torture - including that of kids) is not good?

You don't need be an active human rights activist, or be engaged in the wellbeing of people in yemen, to know being owned by such a regime isn't anything to be proud of.

Cheers.. sounds like a right bellend. His user name is hilarious considering he’s attempting to defend a mass murdering crime lord!!!

Time? It took about 60 seconds to put question and your username into the search function. Unsurprisingly everything I needed was on the first page. If I could be arsed I could have went back further for more but I've proved my point enough with what I had.

Sunderland fan asking for a favourable references from fellow Sunderland fans against a Newcastle fan? Can you see you getting really objective responses there :lol:

Just shows how disingenous you are in general tbf.

Still nice of you to take any time at all, as for disingenuous, I would say that applies to you more than me by your mere presence on this forum and the amount of time you spend on here

Saudi Prince in that interview mentions Messi and Ronaldo a lot and the desire to get Liverpool and Man Utd. He doesn't even acknowledge the mags, almost as if they don't give a monkeys about them.

There are members of PIF at every big Liverpool game. Not sure about Man Utd. That is the one they want but will the fans welcome them? I did think no but it might be a case of “if you can’t beat them join them?”. What’s your take?

A large academic one. In fact in one presentation one high profile speaker asked “How long until we can no longer work with Saudi Universities just like Russia?” First time I have heard anyone ask that question. I checked and he wasn’t a salty mackem.

Its a game, and the point of the game is to win, politics however does have its own forum, maybe this thread should be moved to that, certainly if you are going to bring my politics into it 🤔

To be fair, when extremely rich people buy football clubs for the explicit purpose of political leanings and soft power it ceases to be just a game.

It ceases because “just a game” is a throwaway tag in a pathetic attempt to absolve any responsibility. But worse it becomes something more sinister and nefarious……and deliberate. People calling it out are the righteous.

People saying keep sports and politics are sticking their heads in the sand.
Either try and make this world a better place or be an oblivious ostrich
