David Conn on Abu Dhabi and Human Rights

Was wondering when someone would write about this in one of the nationals. Inevitable too with Conn having been banging on about American owners for weeks.
 
Conn is a turncoat anyway with a leftie hatred of our owners -you can see that clearly in his book Richer Than God. Trying to judge every country through a Western liberal democracy prism is a nonsense.

As for Conn, he should fuck off and go and support his beloved FC United.
 
Bloody human rights I see a headline in one of todays papers stating we wasted half a million regarding Brady's human rights. No there is a scum bag of magnitude proportions.
 
Conn by name, Conn by nature - there is absolutely no way this guy is a blue.

Does his best to destabilise our club at every turn.
 
Not buying that we were bought to distract from the UAE's human rights record. Its record is not good but it's a long way from being the worst, but the reason it's not discussed very often is not because Manchester City are owned by one of the ruling family of the UAE but that the UAE is very cosy with the governments of the UK and the US. Saudi Arabia, whose human rights record and level of freedom make the UAE seem like Norway, is rarely discussed either by the mainstream media, for the exact same reason. Meanwhile, Iran, which is a freer country than both of them, is constantly talked about. The UAE's human rights record deserves to be talked about but to tag it to a story about our club stinks of journalistic opportunism to get more readers. If David Conn has direct evidence against Sheikh Mansour, let him tell us.
 
maybe we should do an expose on the guardian which is a bit like church preachers all fur coat and no knickers when it comes to being principled about who it take ad revenue off silent on how they dodge taxes and coy on why so many interns are unpaid so as they say up north those in glass houses
