i wouldn't really say it was aimed at being humorousIt’s just some humour mate after weeks of local TV telling us to drool with excitement over the big club that everyone should love.
Banter, look it up love.
Saudi Arabia probably. What's that got to do with me refuelling my car?So where do you think oil comes from?
If we get promoted, and if our match against them is live on Sky next season, we should have a flag day.Hope we get promoted and get to give them a proper display next season and slap them like Liverpool did Man United last night
I’d rather see Boro flags - much more relevantIf we get promoted, and if our match against them is live on Sky next season, we should have a flag day.
Yemeni Flags, Thousands of them. No need for banners. Just Yemeni flags. Lets see Sky squirm
Ah, I’ll get my coat
Absolutely nothing close to half of Teesside, and times change. I'm sure it's not hypocritical for the majority of fans, especially the age of those in the south standIn the past (70s) half of Teesside (like me dad) worked Tax-Free in Saudi for decades. We even all moved out there as a family for 5 years. Lived all that time in Rhahima near Ras Tanura where dad worked.
I’ve lived in the place, it was grim back then. They are obviously trying to modernise, and I understand this “sportswashing” rhetoric. But I believe that a lot of Teessiders have benefited from Saudi generosity over the years, and that’s not to mention their recent investments in Teesside.
So, all in all, I don’t agree with that banner. I think it’s potentially a bit hypocritical as far as I’m concerned. Sorry.
You are so outraged you chose to holiday in the region last year. Dooderooni sums it up.The one thing they haven’t yet realised is that their Saudi benefactor with questionable ethics and dubious morals could just as easily turn into a despotic tyrant. Ironic eh.
They chant they’ve got their club back but they couldn’t be more wrong.
Imagine if putin tried to buy Hartlepool it sounds crazy but that is exactly what MBS is.
He has an EVI have no clue what that means sorry
