This picture is what triggered me. To actually see our owner sitting face to face with Assad, not as part of a delegation but one to one is really concerning to me. Now I hope other posters are right and it’s as part of a peacemaking strategy or some form of go between but I honestly don’t know without researching it.
Of course I know our owner and Chief Exec are well connected politically and active players both within the UAE govt and on a wider scale. I’ve had an itch about it especially over Yemen and Israel but I’ve generally ignored it, tried to think the best and just enjoyed the great ride we are still on. To tell the truth Ivd virtually completely ignored it. Every PL owner bar perhaps Delia is dodgy in some way so why pick on us and it’s because of jealousy and the American influence has always been my view. Also Sheikh Mansour has been very much in the background as far as the club is concerned and again that’s fine by me.
However this new moral front against us is gathering pace and seeing that picture with Assad as well as being publicly named by an MP has shocked and upset me quite a bit - as Assad starts his rehabilitation back into the fold, virtually the first person he is pictured with is our owner! Anyway, like all peace living people I really do hope it is for the good of the Syrian people and the region.
Goodnight and lets hope we best Saints tomorrow.
