I gave you 5 stars as it was impressive how you managed to get everything they paid you to say word for word on here.

Sigh, another sportswashing apologist.

They’ll never be able to wash the blood of their hand’s however.





I said what I said.

Your title was spot on, you did go on a silly rant about oil money.

Canary Wharf
Shard
Harrods
British airways
Sainsbury’s
Credit Suisse

It’s not just sports washing though is it?

I wish it were true. I'm desperately in need of their cash. Getting paid for speaking the truth will be a halal bonus.

Lol
Look at all of you crying
Cry more. Your tears won't help you.

Nobody’s crying, just calling out the filthy sportswashing for what it is.

I’d never accept it even at my own club.

tbf, you also seem to be crying just because people are against someone that has a similar heritage/religion as you.. I find it utterly bizarre.

I absolute hate with a passion some of the people that share the same heritage as me.

All these awful regimes are not incompatible with Western (European mostly) values and have seen what collective Western governments have done to Russia.

So, they are investing in these shores to keep it going their dictatorship govt. Now, you cannot sanction any of these countries no matter how bad they behave. It's like an insurance policy.

For example, after Skirpal's incident Briton kicked off few Russians. But nothing is done when Dubai rulers' daughter kidnapped in broad daylight on Briton streets.

So, your shouting is nothing more than nuisance to all these people; sadly.

Why does it have to be one or the other?

They have legit investments but they are also proper sportswashing in other areas. They know they have a bad image and want to control how they are viewed as much as possible without actually changing their dictatorships and human rights abuses. This will enable them to invest more effectively.

Because nobody has the b0llocks to stand up to these people, certainly not our spineless and venal sporting bodies.

Do they even need to sportswash to invest in other areas.

Doubt it. Money talks even without cleaning up your image first.

I'd like sports to get a handle on it quick but at the same time the Saudi's/Qatari's arent to blame. We need to look much closer to home.

If FA stands up against these people, they move on to other ventures, like tennis or rugby or cricket. Then, football is a loser.

As I said, it's too late.

Ah, havent seen you on here for a while. Got any more made up stories about your homosexual neighbours and incestual work colleagues? That was entertaining.

Of course they need to sportswash their image as they're not the only ones with money. Many people will reject their investments if another party with a cleaner image is offering similar amounts of money.

Yes, it's too late I think, but them moving on to go and ruin other sports would have made football the winner, not the loser.

I don't see many rants,and the opinions are not silly.
It's not the oil that's the problem, it's the way they treat their citizens doesn't equate to how we feel they should be treated.
This seems to be saying we are okay with that, most aren't.
Some like Scholey are happy for it to continue, so long as we become City mk 2

Just imagine if Louis Edwards had stuck to selling bad meat or the Moores family had just concentrated on encouraging people to gamble.

English football would be very different to what it is now
