Taking a knee

Whilst I would do it too, I feel players who don’t want to do it, for a whole host of reasons, are getting put in a position where, if they didn’t want to do it, would be accused of racism.

What’s everyone thoughts on it.

Load of old tosh for me, wouldn't do it or wear that message of hypocrisy on my hirt either.

It could easily be coordinated through captains, who have coordinated other things that footballers have done.

It doesn’t have to be at the same second ffs.

The Premier League is global. But if it only impacts the UK, so what? Is that still not worth it?

Whether the footballers have signed these petitions have nothing to do with my point and I don’t know why you’re fixating on one part of what I think should be promoted.

You seem intent on arguing and I really don’t know why.

It’s hardly a terrible idea, is it?

I've finally decided, after all this time, you're impossible. Good day sir.

I’m impossible because I won’t agree with you, instead choosing to explain my views with logic and reason?

I think perhaps you’re the problem here. Have a little read back and see if you can work out why.

I've decided you're impossible because its always everybody else's fault, its always the people you are arguing with who have to read back, the people you are arguing with are always the problem, its always people who don't agree with you are in the wrong etc etc etc. Need I go on?

If its so logical, go and take it to the FA, PFA or whatever governing body you want, see if it passes. Because you seem to have the answer to everything at the moment. I'll leave it there, I'll get a good laugh out of seeing your incoming response, as always.

I’m not arguing with anyone - I’ve very openly said that people are welcome to disagree and I’ve simply put my point across. I’ve been clear it’s simply my opinion, nothing more.

You, however, are just desperately trying to pick holes in my opinion... and failing.

Perhaps you just can’t handle the fact that I don’t agree with you. Perhaps this is personal and you were never intending to actually try and understand my point of view.

I’m not going to ruin a perfectly good discussion so I’ll leave you to it.

Sounds like you’re ready for a deep dive into buzzwords, Irish.

Modern life summed up in one simple sentence.

BLM on Sunday in Milleno Square. Brilliant middle aged mum speaking from the stage about how she been downtrodden all her life and people were watching her cos she didn’t take the knee when everyone else
Did.

She explained she would never kneel again in her life- she is standing up and fighting

So it’s not clear cut whether it is right to do it or not

Remember Irish, it’s not what you do, it’s why you do it.
