I’m not saying Islam makes sense I’m an atheist myself so most the religions to me are a nonsense but it doesn’t stop me respecting people who are religious and trying to understand what might be insensitive to them. I’ve also studied/worked with Muslims who drink, but are nowhere near as dedicated to their faith as the older generations in their family. I think with many religions in the west they have constantly diluted amongst the younger generations.

Pogba probably just didn’t want to be sat there talking to the press with a bottle of Heineken in the same shot. It’a not a big deal.

I was christened a Catholic so I really am a naughty boy.

It's not too late to repent your sinful ways and earn your Lord's mercy.

But these are personal acts - they don't hold up the match ko so everybody can watch them.....doesn't really count as bringing religion into football.

Would you ban 'Abide with me' from the Cup final under that idea too?

I wouldn’t ban any of it! I don’t have a problem with it whatsoever. It was eagleman13 so said we should keep religion out of football so you need to ask him about Abide With Me as that would have to go too.

As opposed to what Pogba did?

Most fans who are against this are, not just because they see a different perspective of the gesture, but because it is enforced upon them.

If players decided to walk on the field and make an individual gesture of kneeling as their own tribute to whatever they say they are supporting this week then crack on. But it should be done as a personal gesture, not preaching.

Muslims praise to Allah. Not sure what Benteke is but he always has a mutter and looks up before he plays, Joel squats, Catholics cross themselves. All personal gestures which are not designed to be shared directly with the public.

But when the public are forced to watch something right before the whistle that has nothing to do with football then they become understandably irate.

It’s not up to the players to decide which of the sponsors’ products are acceptable.

I’m not sure players with egos like Ronaldo and Pogba really give two sh*ts about that.

English Heritage have condemned Enid Blyton

The Globe are scouring through Shakespeare to try and de- colonise his works

Goldsmith College have added “ racial trauma” to reason for deferring exams. Fine if it personally affected you but this is going to be self-certified. Students can use events abroad, which does not personally affect them as a reason

Where will this end?

Scary stuff isn't it.

Our institutions are increasingly run by cowards, fools and foreigners. That might help explain it.

Let the people that want to use excuses use them.
When it comes to looking for a good job after they graduate, without a final grade they'll miss out on the September intake and find themselves doing menial jobs for the next 12 months.

In the long run it will put students who use this BS at a disadvantage, but they are adults and need to learn about life choices.

This could help filter out the candidates you don't want

Let’s hope that in the future should anyone need emergency services that firemen or ambulance drivers aren’t off work traumatised by something that happened 5,000 miles away.

First of all the downer on Enid Blyton has been going on for decades. I can remember being 'discouraged' by teachers in Primary school from reading them and there were none in the School Libary. But I still read them and enjoyed them a lot. So nothing new there.

In terms of the Globe then their entire reason for existence is Shakspeare. (as a boring aside, did you know they had to get an act of Parliament through to even build it due to objections from the LFB about how the roof was constructed?). They start f***ing with that and they will not last. People go there because they want to see Shakespear performed in the original surroundings. Not some messed up woke version. Strikes me purely as a PR stunt.

And Goldsmith college? LOL. Seriously, nobody cares what that institution does. Has been run by utter lunatics ever since the 70's. Full of the scabbiest and most unwashed 'art' students in London, which is saying something. Just looking to maintain its 'wadical' repuation with crap like this.
