Regarding this line: much was made about how wrong it is from a political and human rights standpoint to accept money from the Saudi Royal family

It is a reference to the furore made by people all over in the media and blogs about the moral nature of this deal — not my statement.

All this crap about the Saudi telecom company which is by the way a public shared company and not owned by the SAUDI royal family and will benefit from the deal since Man United supporters in the Middle East and East Asia is more than any part of the world. And the Saudi company owns 5 East Asia telecom companies along with their base in the middle east. but this is not my point, what I want to point out is although this is a marketing prospective, you claimed it's " and much was made about how wrong it is from a political and human rights standpoint to accept money from the Saudi Royal family." How on earth did you make a statement of this kind in what I assume a football blog.
