His interview with Piers Morgan buried his career. If he talked it through with Man Utd and left on good terms in January some CL team might have taken a punt on him, but that interview put all teams off. No team want that big of a problem in the dressing room.
Finally gone. No more headlines about this drama queen and his antics in United etc. as nobody will give a fuck about his career in Saudi. Let him rot away in irrelevance. Will surely eat a narcissist like him up inside.
I might be wrong, but while the civil case is closed a potential criminal case could be re-opened if he's made available for questioning to the Las Vegas PD. Doubt anything would come from it, but it would be a PR disaster for him nonetheless.
You know Hristo Stoichkov went on to play for Al-Nassr when Van Gaal kicked his ass out of the club in 1998. Played 2 games and scored 1 goal for some incredible sum at the time.
Honestly don’t blame him. No way he’d be able to change the goat debate after Messi winning the World Cup. No team that can win the ucl wants him. Might as well earn more money in the next 5 years than he has for the entirety of his footballing career and focus on what he wants for the next however many decades he lives.
In short: Site has been functioning great and chat add-on (which is also paid) is also holding up. No crashes in recent year.
Having said that, forum itself barely makes anything through adsense. 15USD per month is pathetic and not enough for up-keep.
And if we can cover the server ourselves I would best take ads altogether.
Price of the hosting company went up significantly and I would appreciate donations: It's time to cover the server for the next 6 months.
