What could possess someone to do this at this moment in time?

Puts the club and all of our supporters in a really bad light.

Right now - think it if you will - but please do not say it on our behalf?

You and many more have proper lost the plot - so what are you saying - they don’t matter ?

It’s a fine line and dangerous game your playing

Schoolboy error really by the banner man - should have known you and the club would make it racist All LIves matter is what it should have read ( it would have been interesting to see anyone condone that )

The statement from Burnley FC to this is embarrassing! How can the banner be offensive? I think the lives of the three butchered in a park by a Libyan matters!!! Don’t get me wrong - I get the protests although not in a pandemic and ALL lives matter so the slogans on football shirts is turning people off! Different with the rows over the poppy and this represents all those lives lost by our armed forces who fight for our freedom.

Big mistake that Burnley statement as the content of it is offensive in itself!

Again - All Lives Matter so the wording of it being offensive is poor - bad timing maybe!

Exactly right , I think a lot of the BLM forgot that many people went to war and gave their lives for this country so they could have a fair crack at freedom and a better life in this country.

Also and you are also right for the three white lads murdered last week, it’s a good job the whites aren’t out protesting I mean we’d all just be the biggest racists the country has ever seen or far right fundamentalist.

Surely you have to question the intelligence of the pilot/ aircraft company for agreeing to do this before the game, with all the problems there have been. ?Is there a case for being apprehended for this stupid behaviour ? It would not be too difficult to trace the pilot and aeroplane owner responsible for this idiotic behaviour .

For me its like the Black Lives Matter on the back of the shirts, the Black Lives Matter badges that everyone wears to knuckle down to show that they are following the herd.

NO, the plane was ridiculous, but Souness, the presenter and the ex player going on and on and on and on about it is Laughable, I kept saying to Matron, well come on then what is it that it is achieving ? all this Black Lives Matter, what do we need to do besides, have it plastered on Football shirts, Badges and have demonstrations ? COME ON ! TELL US WHAT IT IS ALL ACHIEVING !

Its a Football programme, Phucking move on to the Football ya pricks.

alto --I have no idea what was being said because I turn the sound off and watch with some vinyl playing in the background.
Tonight I had the pleasure of Earth, Wind and Fire and then Stevei Wonder so the night was not a total write off! It isn't often that I can listen to sounds with the volume turned up but tonight!!

[Altobelli]

You didn't miss anything Sub, Souness saying when he was in the game he was racially abused by Chairmen of Football Clubs and didn't say anything, but now wishes he had, Micah Richards thanking him for saying that after we are accomplishing so much (What the hell are we accomplishing I shouted), Ben Mee interview was all about the plane, like I keep saying Racism happens in everyday life, not just Football, you will Never get rid of it (tonight with the plane proves it), don't fuel the fire, its a Football programme, so show more of the game and if you have to talk, talk Football ya Muppets.

Got to agree with all this! The commotion over the poppy on the shirts and this emblem represents those lives lost by our armed forces fighting for our freedom. Even some black decent guys at work say all these slogans now especially in football are totally over the top. But hey - these white liberals will be on to the next thing soon! Bad timing tonight the banner but for the club to say it was offensive is embarrassing!
