    If RD sees this picture do you think he might decide to stick around and build some houses on the car park ?

    How can we expect to watch the football if we can't even fit inside it?

    The stadium needs to be at least 3 times bigger than this!

    Would rather be penniless than owned by anyone close to the Saudi monarchy.

    Hopefully it's just a legitimate businessman.

    I couldn’t give two hoots about the ownership, legitimate or not - if they’re filthy rich and allow me to watch us beat palace and millwall on the way to the prem, they’re more the welcome
    You won’t be saying that when we aren’t allowed to drink in the ground, all women have to wait outside for the full 90 minutes, we have to kick right to left at all times and everyone has to face the east stand.
    You’ve been on good form over the last few days.

    If this doesn't go through now someone's going to look a right burka.
  • Who was it who said it was going to be a bumpy Riyadh?

    God I waded through 700 posts to make sure nobody else had used that.

    At least the stadium name could remain roughly the same-Diwali.

    Sorry you ca't have that one, what has a Hindu festival got to do with it all. Unless you are ITK and Roger Johnson is returning at the head of a consortium of Pune based businessmen.

    Who ever takes over is going to need lots of money to get us to the PL as there's now such a huge Gulf.

    I assume the following changes will occur after they take over...

    1. Tesla refueling parking spaces and camel water troughs
    2. Men and women must sit in different stands
    3. Prayers every 15 minutes of play (not to Allah, but for goals)
    4. Beheading of failed managers
    5. Can purchase tickets with petrodollars
    6. New scoreboard showing Saudi invasion of Yemen at halftime
  • I have sinned.

    Not been keeping up with this thread and decided to dive in at the current page, only to find the focus has shifted some 12,000 km from Sydney to Dubai. Started working my way backwards, got impatient jumped back 20 pages or so, waded through a moneyball debate, started reading forwards, skipped pages once or twice (and then went back again). Eventually found Red Henry's 'Heard a second bid was put forward last week. I have been waiting to hear the outcome' and then Airman's 'Dubai has been mentioned to me, but it was a completely random source and I have absolutely nothing to back that up'.

    These few uncertain, cryptic words, enough to cause a meltdown and launch a thousand Arab based jokes.

    I suppose the moral of the story is keep up or keep out. I'm not sure what to do and to make matters worse I can't even think of an Arab based joke, maybe I'm not worthy of this fine thread.
