Taking the knee

[cross it Dave]

Agreed.
And I think all these people who are white telling us we're all racist are in fact the biggest racists out there.
Alot of you fellas and girls have grown up in London surrounded by multi cultures.
You all have friends who are from different backgrounds, you don't need these middle class warriors telling you how to behave towards your friends and neighbours.
These people are imo the white saviours that have been complained about.
They are using black people for their own political ends. Patronising them, telling them that they're on their side.
BLM, the name itself is divisive the, obviously if you disagree they say so you don't think their lives matter.

The leaders of the Socialist Workers Party must be laughing themselves to sleep at night at the carnage they are causing in England today.

So it's a instruction by the club to the players to bend the knee, about time it was done away with it is political now, no place in football for politics or racism, it is going to make things worse rather than better.
The FA needs to get it's house in order and stay out of politics.

The bossa nova would look great.

I'm disappointed at the change of stance after LF so eloquently explained in a statement the club's position on it after we were vilified in the media, the Wall situation has nothing to do with us whatsoever and now his original statement is cheapened which is sad!

Both teams to stand and link arms instead - well done to both clubs and I think this is a sensible way forward until personal choice comes in without pressure to comply.

I really hope some club members have read the comments on this MB today. Grown adults sharing opinions. Hopefully the club could see the mess they could get into which would harm the positive parts of the message.

Whilst this is a better response than taking the knee ,football has moved away from what used to be an escape for the majority of us, whether we are black,white, straight or gay, from the drudgery of our mundane day to day lives but we are now constantly having some cause rammed down our throat before every game.
I go to watch the football, and to lose myself for 90 minutes, its my pressure relief valve if you want, but even that is being taken from me.
Football can of a sorts be described as going into battle with the other team, can you imagine some of footballs hard men in the 70s and 80s linking arms before a match? Risible.

Perhaps they are going to do the okey cokey.

totally divisive, needs to stop or fans will turn on each other. See a bit of it on this post. Kick it Out was a strong enough message

In 50 odd years of watching football at Loftus Rd, I can genuinely say i have never heard anyone single out a black player and racially abuse him.

The closest maybe was “he’s got a pineapple on his head” to Jason Lee.

That is why i believe this anti racism campaign is not completely unnecessary in the UK, in eastern Europe and Spain yes, but the vast majority of English grounds, including Loftus Rd, NO.

As with fans turning on each over, that is probably one of the Socialist Workers Party’s intentions.

They should just play F ecking Football, we are a Multi Cultural country, cant think that many of us would ignore a person in serious distress because of the Colour of their Skin.
All lives matter, dont #### down our Backs and tell us its Raining.
Ps They can stick their Vaccine up their own Bottom.

Why does it bother people about BLM so much, and taking a knee?
