If you wish to know how hollow the Premier League hysteria over Newcastle's takeover by Saudi Arabia is, consider this: the same clubs had absolutely no problem when it happened at Sheffield United.
Potless Saudis, they can handle. And by any measure of comparison Prince Abdullah bin Mosaad bin Abdulaziz Al Saud is not at the top table when it comes to wealth in the Gulf. Few would mind being a couple of quid behind him, but he's not scaring the other owners. At the moment, it's all he can do to keep his club out of League One next season.
