You started off accusing people of having predispositions, telling them to fuck off if they didn't like it, accused me of lecturing to people when I asked a question and now are accusing people of showing faux indignation. 

 

Tells me everything I need to know in all honesty.

 

 

 

It was a generalisation of a theme, no need to personalise it whatever your agenda is

for the most part it’s been a reasonable conversation with lots of thoughts and emotions on show. Only time it’s been let down is when you’ve posted. No one is even denying you yours, you’re just spouting off looking for a fight. Let this thread do it’s thing and keep all the politics here and out of the others. If it’s too much for you don’t come in and your life will be so much better with you being able to support the club unchallenged. I think that’s fair enough before you have a go. That’s what you want then so be it. 

sorry no, im not looking for a fight

I don't see anyone here doing that. I mean if you stand up and say "I actively support killing homosexuals," you're rightly going to be shouted down. But nobody here's saying you're doing that. I can't see why you'd give a shit if other supporters want to make it clear that their continued support of the club doesn't mean they're co-signing everything the KSA does.

I do think the last thing we need as fans is to be at each other and divided. We’ve had some many years of it. It would be nice to have a break from it and give ourselves time to get over it all.

You're more than allowed your views. You're welcome to talk about stuff in this thread even if you're not at all uncomfortable with the new owners, and just want to talk to people about it who may have varying levels of discomfort. Shouting at people who are expressing their opinions about faux indignation and nit picking at general conversation then yeah you'll offend them.

Fair does, perhaps I may of been a little pointed, I didn't think I was shouting at people & at no point did I want to offend anyone, I may be brusque & uncouth but ive not set out to attack or call out anyone, if anyone does feel that way then I unreservedly apologise, that's not my bag at all

I'm concerned we're not going to see anything like this again, because of fan backlash at something that could annoy our owners.  If we don't ever have another similar display people will understandably think the Saudis have successfully sportwashed us into shutting up about prejudice, if Wor Flags or others suggest something similar in the near future then I'm sure fans will accuse them of just doing it to stir the pot and side with the takeover's detractors in the media.  One thing is for sure, anything like this would be edited out of coverage over there.

That ending line is absolutely awful. He's just said it's not complicated but then only asked half the question. No, I don't like murder or torture... but what now?

 

This is apparently an assault on football, everyone's problem, but nobody seems willing to do 'something' about it. Outraged fans are only bothered enough to spam some tweets out calling us bastards. Where are their protests? Where is their action? Nobody seems to have answers but the expectation is on us to deal with it.

 

Doesn't he have ties to the area too? Fairly shocking, if so.
