    The best bit is someone filed a complaint to the Police. So (in theory) they will deal with it (because they have to) and explain that people in this country have a right to protest (so no punishment) and it basically means other clubs will/should be comfortable with similar banners being made, with Sky/BT/Premier League/whoever not really in a position to ask that stewards remove them.

    Should anything else happen, it will stink the place out.

    Crystal Palace fans have set something in motion here and hopefully others carry it through.

    Funny how some fans get uppity about a football club relating to the Saudi regime but don't even think about it when putting fuel in their car.

    Its weird that we have been going on for nearly 2 years over the racism (rightly so). but then the likes of the saudis with their treatment of homosexuals and women. Is like ok nothing here move along. If they had bought our club. that would be me finished. Id not bother with the club again until they went. Theres more to money and sucess.theres principal.
    And yes regarding the OIL its the same with the west and American policy. The saudis are terrible when it comes to supporting terrorist groups around the world.
    It beggars belif what people get away with when money is involved..

    The USA has sponsored more terror groups than any nation on the planet.

    It is that global hegemony that has allowed soybean farmers to become billionaires.

    So while we are not quite like Newcastle our owners - like almost all billionaires are products of a rigged system.

    The USA doesn’t own any football clubs, that’s the difference.

    I don’t think the buying oil analogy works. If I buy something from you, I don’t need to know your wider ethics. The ethics behind the making of product are more important to me.

    If I invite you into my family, including footballing family, I have to know that your ethics align with the culture I wish to promulgate. If you wish to use my family to promote your organisation, it’s even more important, especially if I keep virtue signalling about racism and sexism and the like as part of my supposed culture.

    Indeed no nation should be allowed to own a club. I just don’t know how this every came into being..

    Well I guess I do… the good old petrodollar.

    But it is wrong and should be stopped.
