This is how Britain is slowly taken over and our culture and history erased. Amazing how easily people just accept this. The signs are going to have to be pretty out of reach and robust. I'm going to be over with a screwdriver.

Our Country, culture and history isn't ours any more. It's very sad to think of all those lives lost in two world wars to make this a better place to live. They died for King and Country and now these diversity obsessed halfwits want to wipe away the past. All these tenuous links to the slave trade that seem to upset some folk happened hundreds of years ago for a relatively short time. It's history. It was stopped. Get over it. We had to get over the fact that the Romans made slaves of our forebears while they were here. That lasted 400 years for goodness sake. About time we received an apology from them.

Allowing them to take the knee has opened the flood gates now. How can they now sack her?

I wonder what her opinion of Hamas firing rockets at Jewish settlements is. She should be sacked for this but will instead probably be held as some kind of hero as shes representing what is appearing to be the woke side of the argument.

Seems the FA have 'ordered' the English National side to do this during the Euro's. I fear a lot of grief forthcoming . . . Do, the other 'Home Nations' do the same? They haven’t ‘ordered’ them. They want to do it. And anyone booing them is a moron.

No Bizarre how you lot to have to pretend something is something it isn’t just to justify it to yourself. Laughable that these people booing their own national team would be the first to try and call themselves ‘patriots’ as well.

Realistically, for most white players, while I'm sure plenty are ok with it....you won't actually know about how they feel until a player's career is over and if they want to speak about it.....which is unlikely with the 'cancel' culture that people like you call 'consequences'. As for calling people booing 'morons', well ok you can see it like that. However, as this is the 'politics in sport' road you approve of and you're quite happy for players to exercise their free speech and 'expression' on the pitch so you should also be equally happy for anyone in the crowd to also exercise their free speech and expression. What's good for the goose. Edited by Stirlingsays (05 Jun 2021 5.42pm)

It's not as funny as a leftist making a 'my country, right or wrong' contention.

I've hardly ever posted on holmesdale, but this taking the knee nonsense deserves a comment. Quite simply there should be no political statements in football. People don't go to watch football to be lectured and told they have so called white privilege just before every kickoff. Yes racism is bad. No sh!t. But this kneeling thing is a devisive gesture,imported from America and that doesn't tackle racism atall. Good that the fans are booing the knee gesture. They're entitked to voice their disaproval. I would boo the gesture aswell. Post more often please but on all subjects. I have a feeling your thoughts could be allied to many
