Saudi Sovereign fund

[kerem gokmen]

American evangelicals, their very own Taliban, get a hardon thinking about how Saudis deal with people who call their religion horseshit. Both a shower of dangerous, medieval, theocratic, horrible bastards. Of all the countries invaded by the west, Saudi is where they should have started if any of the utter bollocks given for war were real.

@Magicpole do you know that:)))
in 8th century something, uk, it was not uk at that time for sure, was very close of being muslim... there is a coin, i may send you, from that time,king one side,the other side is written about muhammed... if you are interested i may send you... but history is complicated.... islam has some issues,esp for women rights,or lgbt. bu catholicismm is nearly the same.but you, european people, lived ronesans...we did not...in general islam is more more left winger. i do ot count christianism as a religion also..i am nearly sure that there was no christ. etc etc...
cheers.

The problem they will come up against is the lack of a competitive league, without it, it just won't work it's been tried before and always fails, also Football needs to be embedded in the culture

Climate will also be another major issue (especially in 5-10 years), along with the travel distances/times between Saudi Arabia and the family homes and favourite holidaying locations of the players.

This looks more like a proof-of-life photo than a new player presentation.

It's wrongly formatted in the above IGs. It should be right-aligned.
Arabic words and sentences are written and read from right to left. However, Arabic numbers (0, 1, 2, ..) are read and written from left to right.

Edited.

I feel like people just start regurgiating cliches when this topic comes up.

Football is massive in Arab countries and has been 100 years going back to British occupation. It is embedded in the culture. Al Ittihad was founded in 1927, within 20 years of many big European clubs.

As for competitive, they're bringing in 60 players this year, more than enough to make it competitive, and with the government basically overseeing the whole thing they can control the relative strength of the sides to create competition, similar to how US sports are configured from the ground up to enforce level competition.
