Ok from another perspective, the Rueben's are Jewish as am I, the most oppressed race of people since the roman times, do I hate Germans? not at all unless their towel is on my sunbed, but answering your question is not easy. Am I placing my love for NUFC above my hate for the SA way, I guess so, I think its called turning a blind eye. What I did not see prior to the owners coming in was any mass anti SA demonstrations anywhere in the UK, at least none that made the news.
and yeah - guilty of avoiding answering fully.

What would it take you to stop using the internet, FB, Twitter, Starbucks, Shell....plus thousands of other brands, because each of them has PIF investment, there is a lot of irony on here, another irony is this who protest the loudest (FB/Twitter/instagram users) are all using platforms where the PIF invest in, rest assured they have put more money in many of these brands than they have in NUFC. Yet billions of anti SA people use them readily and daily!

WORRABOOT!

Come-on mate, as a Jewish person, have you ever owned anything by Hugo Boss, Adidas, Puma or VW? Of course you will have but that doesn't mean you support their actions towards your people and they were actual members of the Nazi party.

The Saudi “assurances” that PIF is separate from the Saudi Government are kept completely secret from the public.

If these “assurances” were put under the scrutiny of independent lawyers (ie not under contract from any club or football authority), they would be ripped to shreds.

Dodgy as f!&£ that they need to keep this information top secret.

As much as I think she's an ego maniac who craves attention she may well be bi-polar. I know a few people who are bi-polar and one day someone/something is great the next thing they are awful. The difference is they don't tell 20k+ followers on twitter.
 
I am an NUFC fan and I believe that our regime is pretty abhorrent when it comes to human rights. However I will still support my club. If we win anything it is just an added bonus.

That's fair enough. Nobody is saying don't support your team just to acknowledge that your owners are despicable people, which you have done.

Oh well that’s nice of you to say. You’re against their human rights but will celebrate victories whilst people in Yemen are killed and their own people are executed and abused.

Sports washed comes to mind.

Quite ironic that you lot call people out for whataboutery yet engage in it yourself. And murders and bombing civilians has nothing to do with the fans, as they don't control Saudi Arabia. So I don't see your point.

It has everything to do with the fans. Youre literally supporting a hideous criminal regime.
