Is Saudi money all that much worse than football taking cash wrung from the pockets of gambling addicts?
I think so. If I had to choose between a system that drains money from gambling addicts and a system that tortures and beheads people they deem "undesirable", for being guulty of the crime of being gay, a rape victim, leaving the house without a male chaperone, supporting the political opposition etc etc I think the choice is fairly clear cut.

Barney Ronay sums this all up pretty well https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2021/oct/07/premier-league-newcastle-saudi-arabia-takeover-morality-collapse
Also Newcastle fans can fuck off making out they’ve emerged from some sort of abusive relationship with Ashley. He’s kept them in the premier league and left the club being owed £107m. Unbelievable sense of entitlement which is going to be fulfilled (eventually).
