The people in British horse racing will love him...without UAE money it would be in big shit...just another prick jumping on the bandwagon...

Can someone explain what is Wrong with UAE?

“Human rights”. The migrants don’t have to go and work there.

lot of moral outrage at 81 executions yesterday in Saudi Arabia but they have the death penalty and some people would bring that back here. The executed were apparently all terrorists. These football journalists have effectively decided that death penalty is wrong. Tell that to the US.

This, USA 5th highest number of executions in 2020 according to the BBC but nothing said against American owners still

If Wigmore was a credible journalist he might have asked himself a question: "Why did the UAE and India abstain in the first vote?" According to the (usually credible source) Bloomberg it was to encourage a diplomatic solution, presumably involving India and China who also abstained, which many experts believe is the way forward to prevent World War 3.

One person tweets about the 81 executions without any context its repeated by sheep even talkshite mentioned it after saying we don’t really won’t to talk about it most people don’t want to hear it but yeah let’s talk about it.

Because it's fuck all to do with any genuine human rights crusade (apt), and everything to do with the likes of utd, arse and liverpool owners and fans not liking competition, on or off the pitch.

Seems the bbc have stopped updating the Prem table 'live'...strange that or maybe not (cough 5th cough)

 

[train man]

AND the 51% thing is a myth. The fans don't actually own anything.

And to do so, you'd need a pretty wealthy fan group to collectively own a majority share in a £3bn concern...
