The City fans also fell silent as a show of solidarity.
That banner shows sports washing is working.
People forget what kind of a dictatorship UAE is. Just because they westernised from outside and allow some lax laws to the outsiders people think Dubai/uae as a whole is a great place.
Recently came across tik twat where in she explained why Dubai is better than america.
Doing your part for that
The AskToronto sub keeps getting the occasional “I think should move to Dubai” thread. Yet to hear anyone who’s made the move and not regret it.
Lol
Isn’t it the opposite? It shows that it isn’t. Nobody here thinks better of UAE or SA because of football. In fact, it’s help bring to light stuff like this. No one here would have known of Mansoor and Al-Najjar’s plight otherwise.
Sports washing mostly works only one way, from the west to the third world. It only draws criticism and hate, when the converse happens.
People whom I know and support city loves the Abu Dhabi group and infact supports them. Most of them are indifferent to the owners.
Something like this
You might have seen some twats in Newcastle singing “thank you Saudi” recently.
They’re the minority within their own fan bases, surely? It’s so with us, though who knows? That might change with trophies. Still, more people are against man city than they’ve ever been. Even Guardiola sarcastically refers to how city have ruined football. I’d say it’s a net negative?
this wasn’t even shown during the actual game. they are so correct
