Why are you using neurodiversity as a pejorative term?

What I was actually trying to say was I'm not sure having a pop at the two blokes in video was constructive but you're right i expressed it in a very ham fisted and poor way, so am more than happy to apologise for that.

That's immaterial, the UAE has one foreign policy and that's decided in the capital of the UAE, Abu Dhabi.

And while the investment group that owns City and the government of the UAE are separate legal entities, they are not separate in the way the Fenway Group is separate from the US government.

He's right about one thing, the UAE has a different view to the west and while I'm sure the UAE would prefer that Ukraine had not been invaded, they do support the world view espoused by Lavrov that underpinned it.

Oh, and the war has increased their global influence and is generating a shed load of extra dosh.

I may be placing too much weight on this, but ever since Abramovich was effectively removed as Chelsea owner, I have felt for the first time since our takeover that our ownership could one day be removed in the same vain.

I understand the clear differences in these two cases/owners, but constant stories of this sort about Russians in the UAE etc, I fear could lead to something bad for us in the long term, should relations between them & the UK/US deteriorate.

I sincerely hope I’m misguided in this view/feeling.

Has any team ever had a easier set of fixtures to reach a European cup final as Liverpool have had…

No, they got extremely fortunate with that side of the draw this season, and how shit must Bayern have been to lose to Villareal

Never fails to annoy me the amount of ex players of the teams playing BT manage to cram into their panels and commentary teams for European games for other teams. Leicester, WHU, totally partisan groups. When it’s City we seem to have a token player (Jolean last night) and ex rags n scousers. Always seems to be like that to me. Really winds me up.

You needn't worry.

This crisis has made the oil and gas of the Middle East even more important. The USA and the UK are very close friends with the Gulf States and they're even closer now. They do not see eye to eye on everything, but they do see eye to eye on everything that matters.

Wasn't it the sex case on the left, that was crying in a video the other day about how unfair it was and that City will clean up.

The one on the right is a gonad with a face.

From now on known they will be known as Noncer and Noncier
