Why dont these sports 'journalist' have ago about the USA human rights right, racism is still rife, they like to invade country who dont live like them, they shot each other daily, they football clubs have sponsors guilty of money laundering.

And than we have The Guantanamo Bay people locked up for years and some still are but never been charged with any wrong doing.

The reason the British press/media dont is because it's as racist at the usa

Racism against whites is being.pushed in many states with white Professor Crackpots making a fortune out of pushing this ridiculous theory.
Parents who complain that they want their children taught without any racist leaning to any side are being called racists and terrorists.
And it hardly gets mentioned over here, not much there either.
Getting rid of Trump and having Biden and Harris replace him shows the States are in a worse state than United and this in one hell of a state.

Good old Migs spreading his lies about our ownership on Talksport, interestingly Andy Jacobs wasn't for having his great football reset theory, Jacobs also poured scorn on Syed's attack on Chelsea fans calling them unpaid Russian bots but Syed has got form for that kind of bollocks as we well know.

I really do think twats like him and the what's app group are being given enough rope by city to eventually hang themselves...I would think any good journalist knows this as well...they keep chipping away peddaling the narrative about city...I don't anything about our media department but iam sure they have their ear to everything that gets said and at some point will go after them big time...they won't let it go forever...I believe I read what another journalist said about citys media department that they know everything that gets said and written and are proactive in putting certain media in its place...one day ladies and gentlemen and I do believe this,some members of the what's app group are going to be in for a shock.....its just my humble thoughts...

Saudi and the UAE have been our biggest allies in the fight against extremist terrorists. That's why NATO (especially the UK, US, and France) are backing the Yemen government in the civil war. This seems too difficult to understand for the moronic football hacks.
I am not saying the Yemen conflict is a just cause (I don't know) but it can't be compared with what is happening in Ukraine. And to stress again City are not and never have been owned by a state. Not even the crooks at UEFA have claimed that.

I don't do social media so could you give me a quick precis of all this crap about sanctions against City. It seems to be because the UAE abstained from voting against the Russian invasion or is it because of the Yemen conflict now being used to have a go against City
When and how did it all erupt. I am guessing that it is the usual social media suspects but if you know of an account in a reliable paper l would like to be able to read it up myself.

Yes. wonder if there are some hidden payments from Glazer, Levy, Henry, Kroenke to certain journos. I know a particular cybersecurity person looking into some strange payments and tracking these so be CAREFUL whatsappgroup if you reading this, i know you are!!!
:D
 
Footballer ownership is now back on the menu.

I do hope that all football clubs will be given the same level of scrutiny by the WhatsApp hyenas.

Birmingham- dodgy owners taking money from the club.

West Ham- Human trafficking owners.

Leicester owner- sponsors own stadium.

Liverpool- Money laundering and benefiting from atrocities.

I await with baited breath the exclusive articles on every club owner with anticipation.

Hack off ;)

I get paranoid on this issue & fear their constant lobbying, given the current climate with Abramovich, could lead somehow to our ownership being targeted. There is no solid information or factual cause for this to happen but it's just a fear I have, as their constant smearing has definitely had an effect on the reputation of our club. Certainly in the UK anyway. They are like a dog with a bone who are intent to see our Club brought down and replaced by their beloved ones, who's ownerships can apparently do no wrong.

I don't have anything to back this up by the way, it's just a fear I have that's been heightened this week by the on goings at Chelsea.

Differences between Yemen and the Ukraine.
In one an invading force is attacking locals who are being supported with hardware from the west.
In the the other the population of the country are fighting each other depending on politics and/or religion with many factions but mainly three. One group who have pushed out the recognised government are fighting against two others who are supported by the Saudis backing one of them and the UAE the other. Both the UAE and the Saudis have the backing of the USA & UK governments. This is simplifying the situation but broadly accurate. In a nutshell what many biased media types forget is that we have an uninvited nation destroying a neighbour's lives and infrastructure. And its easy to take sides. In the other it depends on your bias, politics or tribalism which side you support but to pick on the UAE because a recognised government has asked for their help is not comparable with what is happening in the Ukraine.

I wouldn't worry about it mate, it just shows how bizarre their thought process is.

They might be able to whip up enough fuss to get an investigation at UEFA or the FA with certain articles, but the fact they think they've somehow cracked the code on geo-politics and everyone will see their way of thinking is mind boggling.

Bordering on mental illness.

They are fleas trying to take a bite out of an elephant. Our guys are operating on a different planet to the Hateful 8 and their media mouthpieces and will have plans for every eventuality

This makes a lot of sense and may explain why the UAE and India took a neutral stance in the initial UN vote to condemn Russia. It is clear that the UK's spehere of influence is declining and the present crisis has really confirmed that in my view. That said I don't believe for one minute that Sheikh Mansour has any significant influence on UAE foreign policy. He has a ceremonial role with no decision-making powers in the Government.

Without making too political a point for a row or discussion.
I suspect the Indian abstention is more to do with long standing contractual arrangements regarding supply, re-supply, parts and repair for all aspects of their war machine, weaponry, aircraft etc including all of their armed forces as well as other important commercial and trade agreements. I suppose you could equate this to declining UK influence but its a reliance on weapons supply from Russia whilst they are currently feeling threats to their borders from China or Chinese influence.
It was explained in detail on a report I watched yesterday. However geopolitics is a crazy tangle of interwoven quid pro quo, deals and promises it's sometimes hard to tell the real reasons.

Am l right in thinking its not regular media but the what's app crap who are pushing this at the moment? It seems too stupid for most papers.
Aden was quite a scary place in 1966 just before Britain pulled out. It had been an important staging point by sea and air between 'Blighty' and India and further on.
