Stifler Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Makes no sense. They could probably get one of the Milan clubs for that much with a bigger prestige. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Obviously hope its not true. Expect Italians would bend over backwards to let the saudis run riot and create a true superpower. They wouldn't have to worry about catching up to the top 6 there and having hands tied. Fear we would quickly become the afterthought. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear we would quickly become the afterthought. Except the Italian clubs are tied to the same UEFA rules as English clubs, so they couldn’t bend over backwards to do that. It doesn’t matter, as it’ll be about as true as the Inter links which went on for a year or so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Bit gutting for her and the fans if that happens like. I see her as the heart of the club really, certainly at senior level. Eddie is also the heart but I like the idea of there being a mainstay that cares passionately at senior level.
