Saudi Arabia Premier league

[JLW]

I guess a few will bin their rainbow laces for a nice contract in Saudi.

I'm implacably opposed to the Saudi sportswashing charade, but I'm really warming to this Saudi Premier League circus. It is exposing the English Premier League for the bloated, "star"-powered nonsense that it is by giving a lucrative home to washed-up charlatans like Steven Gerrard, Robbie Fowler, and other failed circus performers. People laugh when they see these lads pitching their tent in the desert - and then suddenly and fleetingly realise "Oh. He used to be a big deal in England."

The Saudis are shining a mirror at the ugly sister that is the English Premier League. And not before time.

He was a big deal as a player. He's always been gash as a Manager.

Have Sky Sports shelled out for the rights?

Yes, I'm talking about him as a manager.

After years of not seeing Everton win a single thing, I've decided to support the mighty Al-Hilal.

To the tune of Forever Everton:

Al-Hilal, Al-Hilal, We're Forever Al-Hilal, All for one - One for all,, Al-Hilal's the team with the magical football.

We're the kings of Riyadh,
We shine in royal blue,
On the pitch,
Al-Hilal,
We play the game for you,
With grace and skill,
we'll conquer every field,
Al-Hilal's the team that refuses to yield.

*sets up Al-Hilal supporters forum………

Rainbow laces anytime soon?

Thought not.

If the Saudis are bewildered by his Sc'arabic address to the nation, they'll need smelling salts and the interpreter of the year to translate his Missus's English into...er English.

They tried to pay an arm and a leg for it but the Saudi's didn't need any

Allah Achhhbaaaaaaaa lad

Can't blame him for how he sounds to be fair.

This is like the perfect storm for the big clubs. If you have a player you’d keep but not too fussed about losing then ping them over there and get a shed load of cash.
