I see Slippy and Hendersons team played in front of 696 fans at the weekend. And “slipped” to 7th in the league, oops.

I`m fairly sure this will fizzle out like the chinese league did 10 years ago...

Not so sure, Bandy. The Chinese weren`t short of a Bob or two, but the Saudis are positively minted. 🙄



Not your average Sunday League player.

Depends on how many sheep start paying to watch it.

Ep.16 of East End Tales is out now with Steven Mill

Reminding me of LIV golf. PIF don`t understand the sport and what makes people watch it. Everyone`s loyalty to clubs/stadiums/derbies etc mean it will never take off.

The LIV golf comparison is fair, and whilst the attempt at taking over golf didn’t happen, it got them a very loud voice at the top table. I’ve suspected since this started that’s what they were really after over becoming a top league in their own right. It’s brought them a significant amount of ambassadors for a near certain guaranteed World Cup for a start.

They will have an ambition to host English Premier league games, or champions league ties .

This is just all part of the Saudi bid for the 2034 World Cup which they will inevitably buy/win
