My lack of faith in these governing bodies isn’t just about this issue Ed but I take your point on board as always.

Football governing bodies in general Ed.
{Ed002's Note - The football governing bodies have gone to extreme lengths to stop third parties and clubs trying to involve Chinese and other countries in competition with European sides. The issue with Newcastle relates to an ownership concern and is unrelated to anyone but the Premier League.}

Another Chelsea fan I’m afraid.
Our governing bodies and governments have turned a blind eye to so many human rights abuses and generally it’s not the role of sport to get involved in politics.
Our clubs continue to play against Russian sides and if there was a financial benefit, I’m sure they would play against Chinese teams as often as they could.
We have a World Cup in Qatar to look forward to (not) and aren’t the most liberal country on the planet.
I continue to have little faith in the UK and European governing bodies and I think we have also seen that greed will out way loyalty to fans when it it comes to some club owners.
I’m not happy about this deal and I have emailed my local MP to that effect.
