Are most of these arabs even fans?
Never had a Twitter account. Never want a Twitter account. Why can’t Aston Villa FC be as sensible as me?
Are most of these arabs even fans?
Wouldn't have helped.. This was Facebook
Almost certainly people who have started following us on social media since we signed Elmo and in particular Trezeguet.

In the nicest possible way, this is gibberish mate.It's what they believe. If we discriminate against them because of it are we then committing a hate crime? This is the problem with making "hate" which is merely a human emotion illegal. As for Aston Villa I have never experienced anything racist etc in all my years going to Villa Park. Villan57 made a good post, there is an interesting dynamic developing where most football fans are still white but Black players will soon constitute the majority on the players. Yet and still football is heavily targeted by endless anti racism campaigns. Why not highlight the over whelming anti racism that takes place in the game instead of 13 reports of "alleged hate crimes". I'm pretty sure that within 2 or 3 generations 90% of the England team will be black yet I am told every time I watch football that the sport is racist.
Someone I forget who posted in Witton Lane that they were mainly people from the Middle East posting so if true it really has nothing to do with the club and everything to do with society.
Any evidence for that? There's enough scum in this country who are anti-semetic and anti anything which is outside their warped view of the world.

If you discriminate on hate and commit a crime, it's far more than an emotion.
The problem here is we aren't inside the Israeli/Palestine bubble.
But it's done for our fans, not for the hangers on elsewhere. The club has done nothing wrong and we've done these messages for years now with no issue.
So what's changed.
The followers we have gained recently who probably couldn't tell Villa Park from Gigg Lane and a worsening social media.
