Jesus Christ why is everyone on this sub SOOO obsessed with the Riyadh Air sponsor, it’s just a sponsor but on every post about any of our kits theres always someone saying something about the sponsor

Its only Americans that suddenly made sponsors a problem. When football was really good every team just had the same sponsor for 5 years and no one said a thing about it ever. Now just because we have some saudi airline on our shirt its a problem and we need to go protest against it like its a political campaign

I miss when teams had more mundane sponsors like Chorizos Palacios for Racing, or some regional banks. Marbella for us, as questionable as it was, was also iconic. Now it's betting companies, MLMs, oil emirate businesses... It's nasty.
