Howay The Human Rights Abusers

How a consortium headed by the reprehensible human rights abuses, torture, executions, state-sanctioned assassinations, bombings and responsible for the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi passed the FA's fit and proper person's test is a good question they will obviously dodge answering but while the unloved Mike Ashley disappears off into the sunset with his back pocket bulging with £300 million notes in it, the new guys from Saudi Arabia are the latest to join in the game of Football Manager 2021 which is the Premier League.
Of the 20 clubs currently in the Premier League, there are only four owned by Brits in the shape of Norwich, Brentford, Tottenham and Brighton while the rest are the playthings of billionaires from elsewhere.
There are Americans in the top seats at Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and Burnley and a mix of Brit and Yankee at West Ham United and Crystal Palace and an Iranian/Brit partnership at Everton.
Italians control things at Watford and Leeds and then out comes the atlas to see Russians at Cheslea, United Arab Emirates at Manchester City, Honk Kong at Wolverhampton, Thai at Leicester, Aston Villa is run by an Egyptian and the Chinese at Southampton.  
So with the Newcastle changing rooms clothes pegs now expected to containing the jackets of many £100m players very soon, Newcastle fans have been wetting themselves since the news broke yesterday although i doubt many have stopped celebrating Ashley’s departure and their new found billions to consider that they are actively cheerleading on behalf of a replacement responsible for far worse atrocities than the unloved chubby shop owner who wasn't great but as far as i can remember, he never exploited them as propagandists trying to polish its global image.
