Their stance especially on Women is discraceful and in an age when the FA is trying really hard to promote womens football. Again I feel so happy we have our owners and what they stand for!
Having worked in the Middle East for 24 years I can assure you that no local woman would be allowed to go to a football match unchaperoned

In any of these Middle East Countries or Emirates
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, Bahrain, Oman, Yemen, Qatar, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Fujairah, Sharjah, Al Ain, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Ajman

I can assure you that human rights is not at the forefront in any of these place so singling out Saudi is an absolute joke.
