Because I research things when I hear about them mate. I'm not looking to cause controversy, all of the information is in the public forum. I'm not an ITK and I don't know John Henry from Adam. Have a read. Take care

They’ve been very close with the LIV/PGA golf stuff, right? Friendly or unfriendly might not be the best word but money likes money and those investment portfolios don’t just grow themselves.

Respect each other as business "rivals" and are prepared to do business. PIF want FSG investment in Saudi pro league but mainly due to PIF wanting a piece of the PGA golf pie. Big money to be allowing feelings to get involved. But yeah "friendly or unfriendly" are probably not the best words mate

Best to separate how club owners react to Saudi cash in the PL (direct competition) and how they feel about Saudi cash anywhere else - very much suspect PIF taking a stake in DAZN and bankrolling the CWC this year is with a couple of much bigger prizes in mind.
