    There are some issues which may contradict other City fans thoughts on Dmitry's timeline......

    If something has been lost in translation, I'm happy to hear the explanation.

    Boo ****ing hoo, he can’t get access to games. Try living in the Ukraine at the moment! How is this news

    He wants to be out protesting about Putin and what his country is doing invading & destroying an other country rather than bleeting in in the T&A how he can’t watch the games. Heart bleeds for you.. Not

    It's certainly not that tweet. He puts his support behind Putin in a couple of others, repeats Putins about the Far Right controlling Ukraine and also the Myth that he is doing it to stop Ukraine and others joining NATO (They did want to join NATO back in the mid 2000's, but NATO said it wasn't happening and they dropped it. It only came up again after step one of their invasion in 2014 when them and the others likely in the firing line wanted the protection NATO would give them. Putin wants to constantly wants to display micro agressions and expects these countries to just take it until eventually they have been bit by bit taken out of existence rather than trying to find a way to discourage them.

    And way too many Russians just buy the crap, even ones who are supposed to be more intellegent and have access to more info. I saw that the latest poll on whats going on from Russia still has like 70% supporting whats going on and over 80% thinking they should go further and invade others to prevent NATO expansion

    He complains on twitter as well about the internet being slow as well. The reason for that is many of the internet backbones have blocked russian traffic because they don't want their western money helping add money into the Russian economy which can be used to fund the war so its having to go via slower less direct routes to get out of Russia.

    However Ukrainians are lucky if they have power to be able to get internet access to do more important things than to watch football matches and if they have power as communications have been one of the things Russians have targeted they are also having issues

    Moronic at best supporting putin. there's recognising where past failures in western foreign policy haven't helped, but the baseline issue here is this is a completely illegal invasion of a sovereign nation by a totalitarian nob head.

He did however think years ago when he sent the links to us how many had embedded bugs in them??? Just a thought...like seeing our security and intelligence being allowed to be run and managed by the Chinese crazy George..... Dmitry love your second footy team but your leader is a nob

    You can either support iFollow's decision or you can disagree with it, but I still think it's a shame all round.

    I get that Dmitry not being able to watch games isn't a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but stuff like this just underlines how nobody is winning anything at the minute.

    It's a real shame.

    It's more than that, the Dmitry concerned expresses views which are more than unacceptable in the current situation.

    Disappointing that the T&A have given him a puff piece given the views he states in the article and on Twitter, especially in light of Bradford's strong Ukrainian links.

    Don't do twitter so only read the T&A article-didn't read anything really controversial in it. What's been said elsewhere?

    Yeah, i get it, I just think it's a shame.

    I've been to Ukraine, arranged fights in Ukraine, feel terrible about the situation, but I still don't like the teeth gnashing politics of division.

    It's not going to help anyone long term, and it's a shame.

    Spouting Putin propoganda sheeeeet. Based on his tweets we should consider his access. There is a political point of view of course but murdering innocent women, children and the elderly ain’t fecking cricket! Not in my land anyway!

    Hard not to have strong feelings regarding his posts, but let’s not forget that this is a country that is being completely brainwashed.
    The information block and level of propaganda is on a par only with North Korea and probably not seen in the ‘west’ since Hitler was in charge.
    It’s quite frightening seeing how many people are backing him and believing of the crap they are being fed

    Spot on. Many Russians haven’t heard any different than what they’re fed from the top, they aren’t psychic they don’t get different sources. People are quick to judge the average Russian, but it’s a fair point about the west’s hypocrisy. We’ve waged war both under Labour and Tory governments and killed innocent civilians, maybe anyone who backs either party should be banned from social media. Sadly us ‘plebs’ are our own worst enemies, turn on each other while those at the top are happy to send us to our deaths for their own gain.
