Redemption for Millwall.....

[malwayne]

QUOTE=claw84;39641344]black cabinet minister James Cleverly has come out and said that "taking the knee is not for everyone" Millwall is leading the way insofar that tonight the Lions team will stand with arms linked in solidarity and no kneeling on the ground. We believe in racial equality but not in a subservient way. I really hope great teams like Burnley and others will follow our lead. Listen to the fans, Millwall did.[/QUOTE]

Why have you started your comment with the word “black” ? I don’t understand what the colour of this cabinet minister has to do with the point you are trying to make, or any other point, come to that.Does it matter what colour the cabinet minister is . ? If he was white European and lived on Brunshaw Road ,would you still emphasise that fact ? I doubt it. I actually agree with what you are trying to say, but emphasising the colour straight away was not the way to start the comment.

Oviously it has more credence him being black saying what he did.

It's incredible that you have to explain that point Claw, but it just illustrates what we're up against. Like BT says, there'd have been a similar response from Burnley fans, me included if I'd have been there, but you got in first. Respect and good luck to you, despite the hysterical reaction of the virtue-signalling, woke media, you are not alone, not by a million miles.

I like it when you and me agree sinkov. It makes me realise I am always right.

BD, I think you may have been reading a bit too many Brian Clough quotations
