    Yeah but Al Hilal SFC vs Al Taawoon FC at some ungodly hour of the day? It's not like Brazil v Germany is it?

    Never watched Seria A, never watched La Liga, never watched The Bundesliga.

    It takes a lot of effort to watch MOTD, most of the time I just delete without watching it. If Liverpool have been beaten I’ll give it a view but mostly don’t bother.

    I’m hardly going to watch that nonsense.

    So speaks three old gits
    This is just the start for the Saudis
    Not long ago we used to only get foreign stars here for a last payday
    That changed didn’t it

    I’ve said before a lot of the players from Africa will go wherever the money is as they’ve grown up in grinding poverty and will want the money for their village

    go to hull city or Saudi
    20 grand a week or 200 grand

    Wait until the first couple of multi millionaire footballers get publicly beheaded for spit roasting a local lass.

    That’ll put an end to it.

    I might be old but...

    Not sure what your arguments are. If the Saudis want to start a league then fine, it's up to them. I hope it succeeds but I don't feel any allegiance to it.

    And Africans growing up in poverty taking funds back to their villages? Are we all supposed to watch it to support them?

    The difference between Saudi and the previously failed operations in China and Russia is that the Saudi's have money to burn. Several reports have suggested they have more money than what they know what to do with

    I don’t think the intention is for people to watch it.

    2 x Kids in my lads School playground had Al Nassr shirts on today (the kids were allowed to wear something Yellow and Black for a Spelling Bee competition). I should add his School is not in Saudi Arabia it is in Hedon!

    Mind you he was in his AFC Wimbledon shirt I brought him home from London when I was down there so he is probbaly just as much of a cock as the other two kids to be fair. I've never seen a yellow and blue bee in my life.
