He'd do it though wouldn't he
It's a hypothetica example.
And no, he probably wouldn't have during his playing days, given the state of his knees might never have got back up again.
or don't be the only house in the street without a 'rainbow' picture.
The only use for those rainbow pictures was exposing how many people have zero clue as to the number of colours and colours in a rainbow
The number of colours in a rainbow is an interesting subject:

And did you know that Japanese traffic lights are red, amber and......blue?

And if any of you are interested in the nature of the perception of colour and the linguistics used to express it (and I am probably boring you all to death, as usual) a Namibian tribe has an interesting take on such things:

How long before 'Men of Harlech' is attacked for being a celebration of white colonial bully boys massacring brave black Africans?
Eternity?
I was rather surprised that at the Native American pow-wows I attended many years ago (including the biggest one in the States) the Star-spangled banner was played at each of them. After reading 'I Buried My Heart At Wounded Knee' I expected less respect for the anthem adopted by those who persecuted the indigenous people and, even to this day, has left a huge proportion of them in a less than wealthy state.
Been following this Fred, but reading the HEADING, I can’t get the old Grangetown End song, out of my head !!!!!
“We’re going to, jump down, turn around, kick ‘um in the bollocks”
“We’re going to jump down, turn around, kick ‘um in the head”
Etc, etc, etc
It’s just that phrase “ Giving the Knee”
You forgot 'Oh, Lordy'.
Grey matter is drying up
To be fair, its not really black people asking for it.
Mainly white middle class people to make them feel good
The first one is pseudo-babble, they missed Indigo out. ROYGBIV.
As for the second, I suddenly feel like buying an air conditioner for some strange reason.
All total bollox. Do you think for one minute any racists are gonna take notice of all this “taking the knee” nonsense?
There will always be racists. The answer in football is for all non racist fans to have the balls to stand up to them in the crowds. You cant stop people thinking as racists, but you sure as hell can stop them from spouting the shite.
Clubs need to identify these cu*ts, put their pictures up on the big screens identifying them as the scum they are and ban them for life.
Outside of football, then thats a matter for society to be brave and again challenge them at every point.
I like your train of thought here.
Although I still correctly maintain Cantona dealt with racists in the right manner back in 95.
Lawsuit waiting to happen
Considering stopping the England egg fans singing 'swing low' as well I've read.
Wasn't aware of the songs origins.
So that stops it does it? Things need to change big time, and a law suit is one of those things. Thats if we as a nation are gonna get serious about this poison.
Its the sane in Scottish football with sectarianism Clubs, especially the old firm have just paid lip service to the problem for decades.
Weed the *****res out, and ban them for life. Or carry on as normal, and moan about it every time it rears its ugly head..
It's very intimidating standing up to racists at football matches , I have shopped people doing nazi salutes in front on me on the Bob bank , it was a relief when the stewards came in and took him out , my mate said I " shouldn't have got involved " What he really meant was he was shit scared of people like that and a lot of people feel the same .
Then you will know how Black fans and players will feel then
Ive stood up to racists many times in all walks of life, and I'm not particularly big or hard. Ive got myself in bother over it, but it wouldn't stop me
Thats the problem. Most people wont get involved, and these tossers continually get away with it.
As I've said earlier, there will always be racists, but they need to be outed at every point.
I’ve even fallen out with mates about it..
Why do black footballers always play up front?
So you can keep an eye on them!
I usually find a stare in the eyes of the individuals settles it down ,however I dont see a lot of this stuff down the City and I've been around some nutters ,other than when we played Leicester in the old days , and there were songs about them being just a small town in Asia .
Its also interesting the club allows the police into the ground to monitor and eject homophobia chanting which is far more prevalent noticeably at the last home game with Brighton , nothing like that for racism , does the club and stewards think its not a big issue in Wales unlike England .
Should we now consider insults at others people , is also racist based IE English insults .
If we feel this morally positioned and caring should we now refrain for asking a certain club to look in the dustbins to eat rats ??
Once the furore over BLM dies down, the game should reflect seriously in the disproportional representation of non Black BAME - there's a lack of Asian, Jewish et al footballers in the British game.
Sadly, I doubt that cause will be championed as much as BLM.
I'm on about if they start the naming and shaming. Even if they are horrible little racists who deserve it, if that action was to result in them being hurt or it had an effect on their job etc people would soon start feeling sorry for themselves.
