    The Spurs one is the funniest of the lot. They were **** in the 90's, **** in the naughties, decent period but nowt amazing in teens, now time to go back to **** in the 20's with a massive stadium debt and a price tag of £3bn that they're trying to sell it for. Realistically the only people in the world that would touch that would be Saudi or Qatar. Oooops.

    They've racked up that much debt there is no investment in it, no profit in it. A couple of NFL games and a couple of big Fight Nights aint going to change that.

    Only people they can hope to take that off their hands is a sports washing country or a massive Spurs fan with unlimited finances.

    Funny that they're a club in a city built on blood money over centuries and they're crying about Newcastle getting some

    This is just it though. I still can't fathom how the west thinks it can dictate to the rest of the world on what their laws and political beliefs should be.

    Keep hearing Saudi uses capital punishment - so does USA.
    Keep hearing Saudi are so outdated on lgbtq - so was UK and USA till the 90's (2000'S for USA) lets be honest here.
    Keep hearing Saudi at war with Yemen - Don't even ****ing start me on USA and UK wars.
    Keep hearing Saudi assassinated someone - Pretty sure USA assassinated an Iranian General illegally just last year.

    Its all just bollox and as much as I love the USA (My business revolves around it), most of it comes from the USA and US owners in the PL.

    I've selected my victim and its Tottenham fans.. Sunderland don't exist and they've asked for the role.

    yes it was
    they attacked a pub full of Newcastle fans but because me and m brother were only 16 and 17
    we couldn't get in and were waiting outside for our bus to arrive so we copped it first along with a lot of other young kids
    remember this guy (Arsenal Fan) told us not to run, because the old bill will just nick you if you run
    I said in Newcastle they nick you if you walk or run.
    The guy made us sit in a bus shelter while it all kicked off around us Spuds, Coppers just helping themselves to dishing out beatings

    There was an air of “you’re all deluded, mark my words” about recent comments. I noted it.
