Mr Murad also criticised Gulf Air's sponsorship of the English Championship football team Queens Park Rangers (QPR), which he described as pointless.
"If it was a well-known and high-profile team we would have welcomed it but nobody knows them," he said.
"Why not sponsor a team from Bahrain?"
Classic! Who would he propose....Muharraq United or perhaps the Buddaiya Wanderers, both well known and high profile teams internationally as we all know...
I wonder if he knows who owns QPR and what that realtionship means for the future of F1 in the Islet.
But now we are seeing new companies progressing faster and getting better than Gulf Air. And most people in those airlines are ex-employees of Gulf Air."
Who would they be now? OK, one or two management types perhaps, including Timmy Clarke at EK and the fellow at Air Arabia...yes and quite a few pilots.....but the word
most...maybe he was quoted out of context, surely....
This place really is Fantasy Island! A reality check is perhaps the best solution to GFs problems.
Good luck
