I too went ballistic last season when Dream team was announced as our sponsor, and I too was vilified.

It seems most Orient supporters ( not all), put the acquisition of hard cash way way above morals and scruples.

Murdoch, IMO is a total b*stard, and has been for 50 years.....but that doesn't seem to matter to the vast majority of our fans it seems, long as we got some of his ill gotton cash

I know i'm fighting a losing battle on here against the majority who would be happy if Orient started arms dealing to kill a load of kids in Yemen if it meant that we can limit Nigel and Kents losses but honestly, I could just about swallow the dream team thing but advertising another of the Wireless Group i.e Murdochs empire on the front of KIDS shirts. Pft.
Sounds a bit excessive but on reflection Apple Womble is probably right. Saudi Arabia is the UK's leading trade partner in the Middle East and we are their closest European ally. Much of the arms already being used by the Saudi led coalition, responsible for atrocities in Yemen, were supplied by the UK.
