Good one.Thank you for confirming you don't know
Amnesty International are irrelevant now. It's an eyebrow raising day on here, no doubt about it

He really has got to you hasn’t he
Not at all, he can crack on for me, just thought I'd point out the real energy behind his obsession

Maybe he can’t speak french, pointless going onto their forums really. Poor example that, you really do need to try harder

So you admit now that you're happy to engage in sportswashing and cheer for bin Salman's propaganda machine?

Ok, you’ve made your point. Is that the end of it for you then?
I'm not suggesting that he tweets in french, just that he doesn't hold up PSG signing a player as an example of "putting two fingers up to sportswashing"

That trim is highly likely to represent the Russian flag though Chelsea kits have traditionally been blue and white with the odd bit of red
No. I'll cheer for Newcastle while decrying the way we're being used and pointing out the reasons for it, the deplorable human rights record of Saudi Arabia
You do realize it's not me that said that? Don't you?
@ilovehorswill
You liked that post. Didn't you bother reading it?

But you don't do that do you? You've already admitted that you go to the match and cheer bin Salman's boys whilst saying nothing about his atrocities. If I remember rightly, you were afraid to protest against the owners in case I asked you to do something further.

No, I don't protest at games. I never have. I do discuss things with fellow fans and get my point across. Thankfully there are very few people to argue with in real life, most people are of a similar mind.
And no, I'm not afraid to protest, I just don't think it'd do any good. I can't see culture changing in the middle east just because I daubed on a bedsheet

Like I say, you seem to be finding him irksome. I am finding it hard to comprehend why you are getting so wound up about it? It’s as if you are trying to discredit him
Comparing the 2 owners is like comparing a school yard bully with the Kray twins.

Whilat I think you sometimes argue for the sake of arguing I do respect this viewpoint mate.
I would likely be the same though I certainly wouldn't have taken to social media to defend the state as many have done. I would defend my club and that would be it.
There was a bloke the other week who put some anti SAFC comment on an "away days" page on Facebook. Clicked on his profile and his profile pictuers have been, Wycombe's badge (fair enough but a bit odd), the Saudi flag and, on the anniversary of 9/11, I presume, a picture of the twin towers. Absolutely barmy.
I am discrediting him. He positions himself as fighting for an end to sportswashing when it's clear from that post that he's not about that at all, he's just against NUFC
^The walking embodiment of moral cowardice.
Your words are meaningless if you don't back them up when faced with the evil you claim to abhor.
