I didn’t even vote remain you bellend.

Exactly, so there is not point crying about not getting a Canada style deal. The EU have no obligation to give us anything.

Of course it is, but if the EU prefer an ‘Australian style’ to what Boris is proposing that is up to them.

There’s no point moaning, the EU are perfectly entitled to go with whatever deal they want, the reality is they have to do what they think is best for them.

This. They will fudge something together and the scruffy fat cunt will declare it amazing no matter how bad a deal it is.

I guess that may change when we actually leave and the effects become clear. If we profit massively from our huge fish windfall and everyone is better off obviously Labour won't campaign to go back in. if people start losing their jobs and businesses suffer I think people's Brexit loyalties will be short lived. Most people just want to be better off, they are not Brexit Jihadis like you and the mob on here.

Harry Kane was on the radio the other day explaining why the players felt they should carry it on. The main reason being the fact that the Premier League is watched all over the world and some people only get to see one game. They wanted kids, particularly in countries with a racism problem, to ask why it was being done and think about the issue. Weirdly he never mentioned defunding the plod or their Marxist agenda. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Some have already, it's up to them. Millwall are planning something different so they don't upset their snowflakes, that's fine.

It's up to the players, I don't see any harm in it. They get on their knee for a couple of seconds, it's nothing worth wetting your pants over.

Fantastic seeing the lads being clapped taking the knee tonight, it looks like most people get it, regardless what a few wack-jobs on here think.

Didn’t play well but ground out a win. Vestergard was immense.

Yeah, great to see the Brighton fans clapping the lads.

Lol, that statement was from the Millwall players.

“We wish to make clear that taking the knee, for us, is in no way representative of any agreement with political messaging or ideology. It is purely about tackling discrimination, as has been the case throughout.” Which part of that do you have a problem understanding?

The simple solution is to read what the players said.

The phrase "Black Lives Matter" can refer to a Twitter hashtag, a slogan, a social movement, a political action committee, or a loose confederation of groups advocating for racial justice. The players have made it crystal clear they are not supporting any political group, they have said so in their own words, I’m not sure how you fail to understand that. You actually believe professional footballers are campaigning to end capitalism and defund the police - wow!

They have said what it was about from day one. A bunch of lads in mainly their teens and twenties decide to do something to help stop racial discrimination and you think it’s right to boo and abuse them because the slogan they use might get confused with some groups within a social movement that have different political views to you. That’s pretty pathetic.

Their statement was about taking the knee.

I’m guessing it was a response to abuse from a bunch of racist cunts.

The players have made it crystal clear that there is nothing political in their gestures, it's purely anti-racism. That was long ago, I thought it would have sunk in with even you by now.

True, but to disagree so strongly that you boo your own players for making an anti-racism gesture - I dunno. I get that people think it's pointless and virtual signalling can be a bit annoying, but would any sane, non racist Saints fan boo Theo Walcott and Ryan Bertrand if they chose to make an anti-racism gesture?

Thanks for posting that Crab Lungs, hope it doesn’t return! You are a living, breathing (just!) example of why we should ALL get vaccinated.

The players made it crystal clear what their taking the knee was for, it was nothing to do with defunding the police or any other weird political idea, it was a simple anti-racism message. Anyway, BLM Is a protest movement and like any it’s going to have weird groups and extremists associated to it. Just like climate change protests have all sorts of anti capitalist nut jobs tagging along - it does not mean the main message is wrong. It’s blatantly obvious to anyone with a brain what the players are wanting to get across.

How is wearing a poppy not virtual signalling?

Oh no, not the black friend again
