Is it true that Brown Ale is to be replaced by Sheiks as the favourite sup of the gravy stained brigade?
The title of this thread couldn’t be more apt, the welcome with open arms that despotic murdering regime have had from the vast majority of mags is very very sad. I even saw a tweet from their LGBT branch welcoming them ffs, good luck to them going to a pre season tournament to watch their team in Saudi. We’ve almost always held the moral high ground in north east football ,but now more than ever with the owner we have will make us a shining light of what a football club should be about in the northeast of England.
See Conte and Howe have already said they wouldn’t touch them with a barge pole. Great start. But on the + side they are in for Mbappe and Kane in January
I moved away from the North East aged 21 and being away from the area you sort of become somewhat removed from the rivalry and a little immune to it. Don’t get me wrong their result is still the first I look for after Sunderland’s on a weekend but it’s not been the same since I left. But this week I’ve remembered what it’s like to absolutely hate them.
Do you think its likely that GB Limited have some big arm sales forthcoming to the benevolent dictatorship in Saudi (more bombing of Yemeni hospitals) that is why Bonko and his chums have kept stum..
Or maybe its because, officially, PIF are separate from the Saudi state so, officially, there's nothing for them to say.
Its all kicking off in the Prem! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...t-FURIOUS-response-Premier-League-rivals.html
Aye they'll all twist like **** until they realise they can offload their surplus players to the mags for stupid money, the they'll all become bezzies again.
