Footballers , The FA and the sports media have in their infinite wisdom all decided they are not only paid very well to play , administrator and report the game they are also now politicians .
BLM , rainbow laces and this that and the other rammed down our throats at every opportunity .
But they'll all rock up in Qatar next year won't they , a country where it's illegal to be gay , a shocking record of human rights violations and thousands of lives lost by migrant workers building the World Cup stadiums .
Not one word spoken by Southgate , Sterling or Rashford .
Not one spoken by the FA .
Not a peep from the pundits on our television screens .
You want to mix politics and sport then I'm afraid you don't get to choose which virtues suit your agenda and which don't .
You've made a rod for your own backs here with me .
Either stay out of politics or you go the whole way and refuse to go to Qatar .
Hypocritical virtue signalling the whole lot of em .
