Well put , whoever does the vetting for the fit and proper owerners for Premier league clubs aint doing their job. Nothing wrong with the banner , the truth hurts .

Typical Croydon Met Police, totally inept. Satirical cartoons are part of British culture since the 17th Century

Imagine the problems the Met would have if Charlie Hebdu was published in Croydon.

"Evening all, now Mr Hogarth and Mr Rawlinson we've add a number of complaints about your cartoons"

One more point

Shearer is hardly just a fan. The bloke in the street just wants his football club to win.

I do agree that there is massive hypocrisy among the hand ringers and virtue signallers in the media. They are very selective about their virtue.
That said, those that say they would walk away if it happened at Palace really must take themselves and their virtue very seriously. Personally, I would like to see us win something before I die. The Saudi government is for others to worry about. What I think about them is of little consequence.

This is Newcastle Supporters site 'The Mag' their take on things without any bias whatsoever . . .(*ahem*)

I'm one of those lefties that most people on here don't like the views of, but I fully support what the HF did, don't believe it is racist and also fully support freedom of speech.

There's a difference between airing views (political or otherwise) and being racist.

Nothing in the banner was aimed at Muslims or the Saudi people - just the government and the PIF. You can make a point without having to be offensive to an entire population!
