It all gets out of hand at St James' Park - Sportswashing, Saudi Arabia, Newcastle fans, journalists, hypocrisy
Once again we are seeing headlines of Sportswashing and Saudi Arabia in relation to Newcastle United.On this occasion presented with an open goal.I had zero interest in the match, the same as 99.99999 per cent of Newcastle United fans.
Earlier in the week, this group had organised an event in Newcastle Upon Tyne city centre, an event where more media people were there than punters . So anyway, Friday night saw a certain clueless NUFC youtuber totally embarrass himself and sadly, create this own goal opportunity for our enemies in the media, as well as the whole wide world, such is the nature / reach of social media these days.
One was a middle aged bloke who thankfully didn’t persevere too long, realising he was swiftly 5-0 down with only seconds played.A teenager who looked around 16 or 17, who appeared to be there with two smirking younger kids of 11 or 12 , going on at length in his Saudi Arabia ‘debate’ with the oldie-Sportswashing bloke.
Regardless of the above, the net result is that this clip of the three ‘Newcastle fans’ is out there and getting massive traction on social media, getting shared and commented on, especially by the usual suspects in the media who have such an obvious anti-Newcastle United fans and club agenda. Bottom line, is that the Saudi Arabia PIF owning 80 per cent of Newcastle United, has caused a very small number of fans to stop actively going to matches and/or buying official club merchandise and so on, whilst at the other extreme you have another small grouping of people who don’t care at all how many people are mistreated, even killed, in Saudi Arabia, just as they don’t care if this happens in any other country.
