"Where were they when they were shite?"

The best part is the lqbtq supporters defending it

I am not saying for a second we would be any different if we got took over, buts its amazzing how many people will shift their morals when they can sign a 50 million right back!

The PL statement is ridiculous like, when PIF is literally the sovereign fund of SA with MBS at the helm of both, to say they are separate is just bonkers. Unless the wording is essentially the other partners are majority shareholders, it makes no sense.

Mate, it doesn’t have to. They know everyone can see it’s rotten, they don’t care.

 

[Mackemed]

Are they allowed to own two clubs?

If their in different countries then yes. Suspect they will want them to be in the PL as a feeder club for Inter - send their youngsters on loan there.

Transparency? Investment in the region?

It’s just the same thing as “taking back control”

I thought you couldn’t own two clubs?

Stuff like this will bring our fans closer together imo and make us even more resolute.

Aye I hope so. We are a class club, with a massive fan base, we need to stick to our traditions and keep on the road we are on here investing in young players. Wouldn't swap supporting Sunderland for the world.

It means they own their own club. Except they don't.
So it actually means a bunch of fat baldy 50 and 60 year olds can try and re-live the 1990s

Doesn't stop Red Bull, Can't own two in the same league,

I thought you couldn’t own two clubs?

would only be an issue if both teams got into european football, Udinese and Watford have the same owners for example.

 

[johnnyat87]

Are they allowed to own two clubs?

Aye but they can't play each other in Europe so it's a bit confusing like.

 

[Kenna]

To be fair it'll likely push even more young players in the North East to Sunderland, not only do we have the best academy but if they feel like big money signings are going to fuck their future why would they go to the mags.

 

[Mackemed]

I thought you couldn’t own two clubs?

If they're in separate countries then yes you can. Hence Red Bull Leipzig and Red Bull Salzburg.
