    Come on outwood ---this is 2020 so you would be sure to be labelled with something or another ---modern Britain isn't it? Everybody has to have a label ---bloody pathetic!

    Perhaps the players if not our hopeless media have understood. Standing together opposes racism but is wholly different from that obnoxious knee.

    "Because if what happened on Saturday is repeated, even insiders know the damage to the club will be catastrophic."

    I wonder what is meant by that ? It's fine for the players to express their opinion in the way they choose, but if fans express their opinion in the way they choose, there will be 'catastrophic' consequences. You WILL wear a muzzle, you will NOT boo, you will NOT go the pub. How did it get to this, did anyone vote for this ?

    Yes, you did when you voted for a Cabal of Cabinet Minister Conservative and Unionist Cretins aided and abetted by their quisling sidekick Kier Starmer who are denying us our freedom of choice and wrecking our economy and shattering people’s lives.

    Labour absolutely betrayed us when having promised to uphold the referendum vote of 2016 they chose to cr*p on us instead. We would not be in this mess otherwise.

    Completely different argument as you well know outwood.

    The Remoaners came together from across all political divides and political parties to try and reverse a democratically held vote.

    My gripe with Labour was Corbyn sitting on the fence, but then again so did lots of Tory voters and of course our beloved Lib Dems who did all they could to reverse the vote.

    Conflating racism/immigration with a genuine desire to leave behind the EU bureaucracy was one of the main reasons I left the Labour Party.

    I had loads of arguments about me being called a "racist" because I wanted the UK out of the EU, I never quite could get my head around how wanting to leave Barnier and his crew behind me was a "racist endeavour".

    How woke, look for racism anywhere and somebody will eventually find it.
    Equalities legislation has made some minorities more equal than the majority.and is changing our history.

    As for Labour fence sitting, it seems Sir Rodney is even better at it than Corbyn. How’s the internal battle over Jezza going
