Newcastle asked fans to stop wearing imitation Arab clothes

The Premier League club Newcastle has asked fans to stop wearing imitation Arab clothes after the club became owned by the Saudi State Investment Fund. Newcastle said the clothing seen at Sunday's match against Tottenham could be seen as "culturally inappropriate", but urged supporters to stop wearing imitation Arab clothing. 

Thousands of Newcastle fans took on the typical Arab look for the first game of the new era of the club "St. James Park" against Tottenham (2: 3) last weekend, creating a spectacle that terrified Kick it Out and influential figures in the FA.

Newcastle fans are forbidden to give themselves their typical Arab appearance, as this is considered racist, offensive or culturally insensitive.
