Crying shame if its end is brought about by neanderthals booing it though. Should've dropped it before it came to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DazBob Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 6 minutes ago, Mr Grey said: Has anyone thought because Football as been devoid of fans for so long that some just want to get back to normality, you know, teams run out to a bit of music, shake hands, stadium announcer runs through the teams and we kick off, fans sing and have a bit of Bantz throughout the game, win,lose or draw, game over, it's just football, we go to the next one. Not sure why the players kneeling for a few seconds would spoil things for you? By all means, if folk don't agree with it then just ignore it. Can't get my head round booing it. Whilst those doing the booing might not be racists, they certainly come across that they are. They're ultimately booing the players for making a stance that all lives are equal and there is no room for racism. Why boo that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason that vote posted previously yielded such figures, is because folk are fed up of being told they are racist. As for Millwall, like others they have some knucke daggers and some who are just pissed off with the whole thing. Just go to the game and enjoy the product and the fact that it is being produced by arguably the most diverse sport in the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birch-chorley Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) The players aren’t even kneeling for the BLM political group apparently, they are doing it for anti racism. The fans aren’t booing anti racism, they are booing the political BLM group Time to strip the BLM element out of it, let kick it out take its place, keep the knee if needs be and folk want to continue it. The BLM brand is toxic for many, anti racism isn't an issue Edited December 5, 2020 by birch-chorley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They take the knee to support BLM Some May support the political side of it, some may not, it’s hard to differentiate really as the name is exactly the same The fans were booing the political element if it, which is fair enough, politics has no place in football, especially extreme politics If the players aren't supporting the BLM political ideology then fair do’s, ignore the boos then, they ain’t for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they have a reputation but folk are bored by it so if they boo or turn backs doesn’t make them racists and it won’t just be millwall if it continues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anybody in the ground makes racist references against a person of colour (hope that's correct), throw them out, ban them for life!

Ok, let’s play that thinking through If it was a Nazi solute would it bother you? It would only take a few seconds! Of course the time involved isn’t the issue, the politics is It’s a symbol supporting a political group from the extreme left, who are anti capitalist amongst other things Fuck BLM However, if the players want to support kick it out ahead of each game in order to show support for anti racism then they can crack on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with your last paragraph. If the players and clubs support this it is good enough for me. Nothing to with BLM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
