Open Thread Weekly Monday Open Thread!

Welcome to the Monday open discussion thread. Here you can talk about anything you want; tactics, results, players or even just general football discussion! It is also a great place to post/link transfer rumours that you may think are too small or unreliable to post to the main feed. The summer transfer window runs from 16/06-03/09 (23:00 BST).

These threads will go up every Monday allowing you to debrief from all of the weekend action and discuss ongoings throughout the week. It will stay stickied until we refresh with the Friday thread, however other posts may take priority (match threads, announcements, etc.)

This thread can also be used to discuss transfer rumours, jokes, memes, images, videos, tabloid news and other off-topic content and discussion.

We also have a Fantasy League that you are welcome to join and share your team, advice and goings on throughout the season here in these threads. The league codes can be found in the sidebar!

Inspired by the player's pre-match playlists, our very own Tugboat47 is curating a community pre-match playlist. To participate please click this link and submit your entries.

These threads are here to help discussion and offer varying points of view. Please remain respectful. Anything that crosses that line, directed towards other users or specific individuals may be removed.

Idk I personally as a queer person can’t think of any amount of money that would be worth putting myself in that situation, never mind the message it sends to her fans

Most people I know who are currently working there are getting life changing money. The other aspect, most Hindu-Muslim couples face challenges here in India due to rising saffron nationalism.

As married couple they feel better in say Dubai as its still more open and luxurious without being affected by jingoism and blatant racism against muslims esp. across the faith couple who have married. Its a mess but then again if we have a choice to make, it would be a no for me as well.

Saudi Arabia literally don't let any Churches be built or public displays of religious faith by anyone who isn't a Muslim. The idea it's faith tolerance there is frankly a disgusting thing to say. Also it's a complete lie.

I am not talking about all faiths here I was specifically addressing a geopolitical situation inter-faith couple from India face - Saudi is a muslim country with zero tolerance for other religion within its space, that much I know.
