I don’t think it’s going to be DCL, my money would be on Isak and Ekitike arriving at this point.

Also an assist for Ekitike tonight apparently, he’s just returned from an injury lay off.

They’ve also got another Brazilian winger Tête now who was highly rated at Donetsk. Think he plays the final pass to Paqueta.

Would love us to play that system with Bruno alongside a good defensive midfielder. We could play Paqueta as the central attacking midfielder with 2 pacey wide men either side.

He does look the biz mind another goal tonight.

Farrington on point tonight regarding that cunt Holt.

Do you rate Scamacca and think he’d cut it in the PL ?

They can crack on with it and hopefully with tourism from the western world, they’ll gradually soften their stance like other gulf states.

They’re happy to turn a blind eye to sportswashing when they’re lapping up corporate freebies. To be honest I think all this sports washing talk is laughable. I honestly think the Saudi’s are trying to introduce sports to their younger demographic and also diversify away from oil. If they get some good publicity in the process then I’m sure they’ll happy take it, but I think this sports washing narrative is completely over played.

Just honest like the vast majority. The only real outrage I can see is from hypocritical journalists and Amnesty which you would expect. These journalists especially the local ones stirring the pot can fucking do one.

Good article on Isak, would certainly be a real coup to get him and his dip might just help us. https://theanalyst.com/2022/01/alexander-isak-stats-overview/

The response will be 4 nil to the Saudi boys when we’re romping to another away victory.

Sounds good ?

Exactly, we can all have morals and belief’s, but you need to be sure your own house is in order before you start preaching to other people. This is where ordinary folk completely object to the hypocrisy and arrogance of these people.

Get rid of Lascelles and Clarke, bring in Gvardiol/ Ndicka and Tarkowski. Hard not to see this as a huge upgrade alongside Schar and Burn.

Emotional attachment is hard to break, but still physically putting money in the coffers and attending games becomes hypocritical at that point in my opinion. How many of us accused match going folk of enabling the Ashley regime, granted paying 40 quid isn’t keeping MBS in power, but I couldn’t bring myself if I genuinely felt that strongly.

Granted I was still emotionally attached and read about us.

I walked away under Ashley and never set foot in the place after Keegan walked. If you don’t like the Saudis you’ve got the same option, however you want to dress it up. The difference is as you well know, where about to be successful and it’s exciting so you don’t want to. If paupers from Iran had taken over I think some of these folk struggling with their morals might well have found it easier to walk.

If I was tying myself knots like some see to be I would just walk away. I’ve got no problem with folk who practice what they preach and walk away because of their morals.

I’m at ease with it a new away top hasn’t just brought this about. Everyone knows where owned by Saudi Arabia, people need to accept it or like LV said make choices, instead of boring the majority of us with their moral struggles.

Caulkin gets on my tits these days bore off.

Our owners are from Saudi Arabia and want to grow our support and income from that country. Nowt else to see here, it’s an away top who gives a fuck.

No publicity is bad publicity, this shirt will fly off the shelves as a result.

I predict it’ll be the biggest selling away shirt since the original maroon and blue hoop one in the 90’s. It looks smart and when the new signings start rolling, it’ll fly off the shelves both here and in the Saudi mall’s.
