The players taking the knee do it to make a point about racism. Nothing more. Everybody knows this.
Bearing this in mind, and whether you think it's a fatuous protest or not, it's incredible that anybody should think it's OK to boo loudly when they do it. Anybody who does this is somewhere on the scale between insensitive at best and openly racist at worst. Only the person doing it knows where, the rest of us have to make up our minds.
If the club decide they don't what this sort of person in the ground then that's fine by me.

I have never accused you of booing, I was referencing the person that was reported (rightly so imo) by Warney for doing it. I don't need to ask what it stands for as I have been told numerous times by enough people. The people that boo tend to think they are booing BLM when they aren't.
I’m saying I don’t know if they boo the players or if they boo for what it stands for.
Ask them, let them explain then have your say, if you think they need removing then fair enough but imo you just can’t remove anyone for booing.
Why was the one person spoken to and not others?

I'm really glad to know that you know why people do certain thing, excellent mind reading attributes. So why does some black players, when taking the knee, raise their left arm and clenched fist. In the 60's this was the symbol for Black Power, i remember the black athletes doing it at the Olympics. So what are they doing it now for and what does it mean, with your mind reading skills???
So would you defend the right of the club to throw someone out for booing or not, a straight forward yes or no will suffice Avondale.
