Actually, Austria being south of the rhine and danube, wasn't germania. Austria was Illyrium.

This is starting to remind me of David Brent in the quiz episode when Brent keeps going back and for reading up on information.

But his half brother Alois lived in Liverpool for a time (Toxteth) and Hitler allegedly came to live in Liverpool for 6 months before WW1, although that is probably an Urban myth.

Let's remember that this particular strand of the thread was started by you criticising someone for their apparent incorrect use of the term "marxist", and in the same sentence made the incorrect claim Marx was German.

Re: Taking The Knee To Continue ?
I think that the biggest question about nationality and Marx is:
How come Chico spoke with a heavy Italian accent whereas as Groucho didn't?

We have learned that it winds some people up which in turn winds some other people up which then winds the original people up
so its all good :thumbup:

Re: Taking The Knee To Continue ?
Still no one among those telling the England team why they were wrong to take the knee have bothered to tell James O'Brien why he was incorrect when he said this a few days ago I see;-

Footballers can continue to do it for the rest of their lives, if they want. In their own homes, on holiday, in the supermarket. In training. etc, etc.. But I doubt they do, or will. But they'll do it when they have a large, captive audience who'll be vilified if they show any sign of disapproval. I also doubt it will change anyone's views -probably harden those on one end of the spectrum..

Well it would be pointless kneeling to yourself . The Knee is clearly defined as opposition to racism . If someone objects to the gesture that's fine . But I think those prepared to boo it are racists . And a lot of people think that too . They will of course try to deny it but it doesn't wash with me . Object to it by writing letters or just keeping quiet , thats fine . That's showing displeasure . But booing it is crossing the line in my view .
I think people who are prepared to boo what could be black Cardiff City players showing a united front against racism are deserving of all the vilification they get .
