So the Newcastle fans have been asked not to wear any Arabic attire in case it causes offence..the owners have already expressed their attitude to it..they are not offended in the slightest...however the BBC news piece on this suggests others may be so...
What could be seen as culturally inappropriate clothing worn on the terraces at Rochdale?
or other clubs for that matter?

The woke police strike again. Bonkers. Guess what. We still (allegedly) live in a free country. People have the right to be offended. Unlike North Korea, Belarus, Myanmar, Afghanistan etc etc…

I dont see how it can be deemed inappropiate. Dressing up for attention, it's a fun nod to having new Saudi owners. What if it was aussie owners. It would be floppy cricket hats with corks dangling from them .

It was the club that asked their fans not to do it. It has spread to Newcastle pubs now, and the BBC of course. It's a shame because Fenwicks (posh department store in Newcastle) was doing a roaring trade in white sheets and tea towels.

An excerpt from which was "Accompanying healthy lifestyles inputs will focus on diet and nutrition, smoking and alcohol and, most importantly, on the generation of individualised action plans for further exercise and healthy living options"
I did wonder if this might be culturally inappropriate
But as it's neither intended for the terraces or an item of clothing, I suppose it doesn't count? Carry on as normal.

And now they have released a statement saying it's now OK to wear such clothing. Shows how ridiculous the original statement was. Good start by the NUFC communications department !!

Didn’t Rodney Marsh get the sack for a similar comment?
No.
He made a comment that linked the nickname of Newcastle fans to a natural disaster that killed around 230,000 people.

No manager of the calibre they want will put their name to that shambles until they can sign some players.
The bottom of the Prem is very tight.
Norwich are woeful and doomed already, I think Burnley will go down this year (although Cornet looks an excellent signing), but that final position is wide open for a number of clubs.
It would be hilarious if Newcastle started next season in the championship.

Whether is truthful or balanced is always going to be subject to opinion. But what is clear in my mind, it isn't racist. No race has been targeted. Just an oppressive regime that Britain has embraced throughout my lifetime.
