I see scruffy is planning some mid season friendlies in Saudi to bring in some revenue.
The rags over on the caf apart from a few using desperate mental gymnastics to justify it all saying it’s not the same as being owned by the Middle East.
The hypocrisy is off the scale, so it’s ok to take Saudi money in friendlies but not take money from ownership.
One or two can see it but in the whole they’re all for it.
Desperate times indeed for the rags.

He'd be a very foolish man to take the job: regardless of how much money they will throw at him. The rags are a poisoned chalice and everybody knows it, he might make himself wealthy by going there but he'll be damaged goods as far as his reputation in the sport goes.

But according to their thick fans, they're "the biggest club in the world"
I never tire of asking them what this is measured on and telling them the only world they can be classed as the biggest in is Ragworld.

I thought no midweek football meant that Amorim had more time to work with the squad. They must have given up on that idea and decided to chase the cash instead

Only metrics they can use at the moment are how much they owe their creditors, how big the hole in the roof is. Or the size of their left back.
 
Shirley it's just a coincidence that when a certain club continues to lose money, the Premier League are looking to replace PSR?

My grandson will be 16 in November, and he can’t remember the rags winning the League.
