I'd have thought this was a perfect opportunity to show support for Ukraine? Or do Russian TV companies block out the images of yellow and blue etc?

China certainly chose not to show the PL games last weekend for that reason(it was the Albion’s third kit that really forced their decision)

The missing not in the title made me think I was opening a quite different thread.

Any overlapping of information or culture is a threat to the mutual aggression. We're supposed to be in our bubble, and they are supposed to be in theirs. Otherwise we might start to understand each others perspectives and no one wants that.

Cut off everything the Russian people enjoy, they’ll soon turn on Putin in the same way the residents of Springfield turned on Homer when Mr Burns cut off the beer supply when Maggie wouldn’t return Bobo to him
