Feel a bit sad for him all told. Someone in a shiny suit offered him a bin lorry full of money and he took it without thinking it through If he thinks breaking his contract early gives him some credibility he’s wrong, he should see it out and use some of the money to make amends with the LGB crew. Money talks.
Coming back to UK he’ll need to explain his choice given his LGBTQ support and then his contradictory Saudi move. I personally would want to hear what he has to say before judging him and beheading any future he might have at SAFC. Sounds like he made a mistake and the reality may have fallen far from what was promised.
The lads a fooking hypocrite like so many these days. Blah blah, bullshit. Yes I'd have him back if he's prepared to drop wages drastically. Never look a gift horse in the mouth.
Im not angry, for me he now just represents everything thats wrong with football. I hear the bit about hes securing his financial future etc etc....i would get that if it was someone with a normal job....but hes already a multimillionaire He stood tall as a very proud representative of the game, looking after yourself, doing the right thing, supporting different groups etc etc.....but in my mind hes worse than those who openly admit its about the money....players at the top level make an absolute fortune & those toward the end who give something back morals intact i totally respect, Quinn could have took his testimonial game money, he had nowhere near whate Henderson had, but choose the right thing Hes simply just another who talks the talk....but can easily be bought with the right amount of money flashed Truth is he didnt need the money their, it was pure greed & he gave up playing his last few years in the PL for that greed.....now hes realised the grass isn't greener & wants to come back....not for me
Yeah he’ll have to pay 7m out of the 35m he’s made in the short time he’s been out there. If he’s got anything about him he’ll donate the other 28m to the people that he f**ked over to go and collect his blood money.
The LGBT groups. He banged the drum for them and was outspoken about the injustices and prejudices they have and continue to receive here and all around the world. Then he went to Saudi where you’ll be killed for being gay because they paid well.
If given the opportunity to make 10 times your normal salary probably 99% would snap up the opportunity, me included, until your put in that position you shouldn’t comment. Virtue Signalling is fashionable these days and most who indulge in it are hypocrites
Ive never heard him bang a drum for anyone mate. He was 33 when he went over there, if they are daft enough to make him even more of a millionaire for a couple of years i really dont blame him.
So why did he issue an apology to the LGBT community for moving to Saudi? He was a big supporter of the Rainbow Laces campaign and he was outspoken in his support for them. Honestly don’t know how you never heard him going on about that mate.
I honestly didn't mate. Either way ill always think fondly of him, hes Sunderland through and through and we should be proud to have developed a player thats achieved what he has
All the lad has to do is donate a huge amount of money to the Charities he has offended then alot of people (by no means all) will forgive him...imo
Yes & also edited his LGBT captain armband....he was asked if he would wear an LGBT armband over there....his reply was he wouldn't rule it out in the future, i think might have said but got to respect their culture, not 10% on that part though....sure someone can find
We should leave the lad alone hes not even our player anymore ffs, he left us many years ago, we got a huge fee for him and hes gone on to make himself a Liverpool legend. We should be proud of him, not slating him. The negative comments dont sit right with me at all.
