With due respect, I think there are a few on here that don't fully understand the BLM movement.

If, several years ago, there was a Gay Lives Matter movement and someone flew a banner over a stadium in which we were playing saying "Straight Lives Matter Burnley" then you would have to question the motives of the people who organised it and what their true beliefs were.

It wouldn't take very long to reach your conclusion.
And change did come for Gay rights - but it didn't come without direct action.

As Bob Dylan said, "Don't criticise what you don't understand" and "And you better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone, cos the times they are a changing"
59_60 ---I was not criticising what Ben said, however, it was exactly what the PL would be very happy with.

I have told you that there are dark forces orchestrating all sorts of things at the moment and the BLM is getting loads of money thrown at it, however, the UK operation is not giving any sort of statement as to what this money is going to be used for and also do not have any accountability for what they eventually do with it.

The bottom line is that, because of what happened last night, the Club and its fans are being branded as racist --like it or not!
