This is a very sensible post and I concur with the sentiments.
My own view is that the Saudi takeover will not turn out to be as good as the mags think. A thoughtful mag may ponder on why a Saudi takeover needs to be bolstered by a 20% stake from outsiders.
Forget about Amanda being the broker. The Saudi's should not need a broker to buy a football club and why are they not owning 100%
This deal is not all it appears to be
Just my view.

Interesting where’s the other 20% from?

Excuse my ignorance but what are you suggesting? I understand what you mean that the Saudis can afford 100% but what is suspicious about the 20%
 
No point in getting hyper about their takeover. It will be January before they can buy any players and I'm not too bothered about their situation, although it does amuse me seeing the hordes outside the landfill with nothing much happening. I'm more interested in what happens at the SoL, and it's going OK at present. Oh, and while I write this I remember....FTM
 
There are no guarantees in sport and regardless of money the PL is very difficult to win. They will improve though within the next 2-3 years. Probably to an Aston Villa / Everton level would be my guess
 
For anyone who is upset over them lot up the road becoming the richest club in the world, it's fine. Vent your frustration and call them mags out for all their hypocrisies and general twatishness if you will.

However tomorrow is a new day, and it will be a day where Kyril Louis-Dreyfus will still be our owner. A young 24 year old who, as our owner for 6 months, has turned the club from its depths and actually gave us a sense of hope again.

Them lot up the road will have murderers and women enslaving scum as theirs. We will still be the better club to support and we will still hold the moral high ground over them.

Yes they may win a PL title before us and yes they may see some world class players join their ranks over time, but our ascent to the top will be done with passion and endeavour, rather than blood money.

And when we do reach the top and eventually challenge for that league title in God knows how many years time, it will taste so much sweeter knowing that we have stuck to our morals and can be proud of everything about our club.

STID!
