Starting a different thread for this specific discussion as it's something of an elephant in the room when it comes the broader talk about ownership.
I think it's fair to say we have criticised state backed clubs a lot on here in recent years. We're also in the midst of a broader discussion regarding the rights/wrongs of Qatar hosting the World Cup. And now with the club up for sale, we've already been linked to potential Dubai and Saudi ownership.
For some, it's a necessity for us to be competitive as a football team going forward. For others, it's the worst possible outcome on ethical and moral grounds, something they say would prompt them to stop supporting the club entirely. And others are somewhere in the middle.
So I'd quite like to get a sense of where the majority stand on this issue. A poll would be useful, if possible.
