Sheffield United ownership: Prince Abdullah wins court battle https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-49715558
I bet you he's the only Saudi prince with no £££££££££££..There are 0000's of princes in that country, one of them is bound to be skint.. Actually on 2nd thoughts he's the one City will get...
At face value he has got the club for £15m plus what he has to pay to get the assets of Bramall Lane and the hotel, not bad for what is now a Premier Lge club
Is that all? That's loose change to Bin whats-his-face... Considering that these rulers tend to have a lot of kids, (I mean a lot) I bet he's well down the pecking order...
At a modest 3 % annual investment return, on that 18 billion, that's approx 1/2 billion asset growth per annum. With that annual wad, why the Blades I ask ? Mind boggling business this football. Whatever happened to gold or diamond mine exploitation ? edit: Not to mention oil field development. Daft
I recall when the owners of clubs used to be butchers, bakers and candlestick makers...Now a lot of them are Johnny foreigner with lots of 'dodgy' money from extremely 'iffy' sources.!!! Of course I'm not including this chap or the current owners of HCAFC in that statement. Eh..Nostalgia it ain't what it used to be.

BREAKING: our support has been drastically reduced Anyone else want to leave any negative comments on here about our club;s support?
If and when we ever start winning games on a regular basis our support will increase. Would you call that a positive or negative thing?
