That alright for you?

Lovely thanks

Not sportwashing.

Business washing or just plain old money laundering.

Myself and the carkie are discussing sportwashing and green washing in general. We were saved today from Abu Dhabi by Ronaldo joining untied. But the question is, is Mike Ashley sportwashing? Limerick saved us but there was some poor norries still wearing cork jerseys in sports direct Blackpool the other day while I bought a new belt and philly eagals hat. Surely against human rights to make them endure that torture.

Doha replaces the basket case state. Last 3 races in middle east on top of Bahrain at the start.

The biggest travesty is that the track is made for Moto GP bikes, another dogshit track for racing

“Suffer”

If it wasnt for the russian blood money chelsea properly would be a mid table clib with an occasional relegation. Mot 2 time European champions. Suffering thats gas.

I hope this chastens in their demise but to be fair they had a decent team just before Roman arrived too. Likes of Terry and Lampard were already there. Finished 4th above Liverpool in 2003. That then convinced Abramovich to invest.

Both their and Manchester City’s success feels a bit artificial.

“While Saudi Arabia were cutting off the heads of 81 prisoners, the football team they own, Newcastle, were keeping their heads at Stamford Bridge to move a step closer to Premier League safety.”

“As Ukrainian refugees sought shelter across Europe, Chelsea fans were left wondering if their players would be fleeing come the end of the season.”

Brings backs memories of the Liverpool fans supporting a racist and booing a victim of racial abuse.

Football fans can be idiots.

You’d miss the old school of tyrannical football chairmen. Ken Bates, Deadly Doug, Peter Swales, Ron Noades, etc. The sort Jimmy Greaves would make jokes about being “my old mate”.

Martin Edwards father used run Manchester United from his butcher shop.
