Great to see full solidarity from the lads again yesterday. It wasn't an example of solidarity Sheikh, it was just a display of weak minded sycophancy orchestrated by shadowy figures behind the scenes ( most likely the propaganda wing of BLM ) in a clear attempt to gain favour with the obviously left-wing media led by the arch socialists who own Sky. When in fact all they needed to do was to go out and get a swastika tattoo on their collective arses and then get on with entertaining everyone. As socially liberal as I am. I’d be down for the first home game of the season when we’re back, the entire squad moon the boothen end, revealing a range of facist inks 😂

Bit of a long listen but this is how you can be critical of BLM and defend fans booing (as Maajid does) without tolerating even a hint of racism and not giving an inch to actual racists. No idea how he remains so calm and rational in the face of this. www.instagram.com/tv/CI82sw8jezb/?igshid=1rfhozzw6nkazMaajid is just bang on with pretty much everything. He's made mistakes in the past (ie standing as a lib dem candidate and being an Islamic Extremist), but he's miraculously turned his life around and is comfortably one of the most interesting Conservative minded commentators on the radio. He needs to get off LBC and join the home of common sense (talkradio).

Imagine hitting the like button after reading this. Oh dear. Not subtle granted but the overall message of the post is a good one for me in respect to getting back to playing footy as thats what’s important not politics. That said if the majority of players have agreed to kneeling then they have the right too. I have to be honest and say I’d rather we went back to playing footy rather than continued with the kneel as I don’t believe that it’s the best way to fight racism and is clearly something that divides people rather than brings them together which other displays of unity would and what everyone wants. But as majority rules whether it’s what parties the ruling government or we’re in or out of Europe we might not agree but we have to accept it with grace and go with what most people want. Sport and Politics have always and will always be intertwined. I think it's a great thing that high profile sportsmen and women are highlighting issues that affect people in the world, whether that's racism, feeding hungry kids or whatever. Politicians should take note. I can't get my head around why people feel so uneasy and get worked up about it, unless it's exposing their own views. As for the Europe issue, are we sure that it is what people want in 2020, given the absolute shambles in the way it has been handled?

I see pugs has taken a break from abusing people in the match day threads and jumped on here instead. As always though he's missed the point and failed to understand what was being said and went with how it was being said. It must be tiring being so reightious all day every day. Abusing? Who?

As for the Europe issue, are we sure that it is what people want in 2020, given the absolute shambles in the way it has been handled? I guess it’s because political views are never as straight forward as people think and there are always certain side issues that people don’t fully support whatever the argument. It’s never a case of right/wrong, yes/no or left and right. As I’ve said from day one the issue of the knee will always be controversial due to its link to the BLM political movement that was the big word after the killing of George Floyd. Only when Sky saw the bigger picture did they move more towards “fight racism” which I’m 100 percent behind. Though I’d never boo players kneeling I do think Millwall got it right re there show of unity in the game after the “booing” game as by doing that it removes any doubt re the BLM movement that I’m not a fan of due to some of their very radical beliefs. I’ve said this on numerous occasions and do feel like a bit of a stuck record. The thing that I find pretty sad is that almost always any view similar to mine will always get the “racist” reaction from the usual suspects which I find personally offensive as it just isn’t true. We’ll have to agree to disagree.

Literally claiming to be called Oswald, of all things, Jesus Christ. These people should probably stick to calling up Starmer if they want mainstream legitimisation. Nawaz doesn't have to walk on eggshells.
