After 100-day wait, English soccer returns and takes a knee

Ironically, when I see the players doing this, is sort of looks like the symbol of the Nazi Swastika - which some within the BLM movement, appear to have forgotten about, when it comes to their recent Historical recollections relating to Wartime leaders.

Symbolism doesn't belong in Sport, as soon as it happens, then the Sport itself, no longer becomes apolitical/or a-whatever.

English Soccer needs to take a closer look at this, and question whether they can, in future ban any player for showing a symbolistic gesture. And similarly, if they now allow it, then they should wipe the slate clean for those who did so in the past.

Planet is changing for the better. Footballers will not like to be left far behind. Like their die-hard fans, footballers too would like to contribute to making the world a better place for humanity. Long live the Beautiful Game.

They're doing peaceful protest, and there's no American anthem

No problem

Black players get paid peanuts.

Ever heard of Mbappe, Lukaku, Pogba, Sterling... i could go on for a month.....

Kneel to God.

Which one? Neville Southall?

ALL LIVES MATTER not just one sector of the human race.

Glad football is back, just hope for the time fans can again enter the stadiums.

Anyway, on the subject of the games themselves, what a farce with Villa and Sheff U with the ‘technology’.

Black players few and far between

No, not at all.

Black managers are few and far between.

Kaerimashita obviously doesn't follow football. And this thread is about the premier league. In fact that post is wrong on all accounts. There are a far higher proportion of players from the black community in professional football than the population proportion. Only the racist Italians and Russians have cases of referees discriminating. Nowhere else, especially not the premier league. And to call all fans racist? Players from the black community are paid the same as any other player. Peanuts?

Black players few and far between. Black players get paid peanuts. 

Citation needed

Football is indeed massively racist. Black players few and far between. Black players get paid peanuts. 

Fans are all overtly racist. Even referees discriminate against black players.

Taking a knee is a major step to fixing this and eradicating the blatant racism in the sport.

The PL should support their Kick It Out campaign instead. BLM represents one race - not very inclusive. Yet Kick It Out represents all manner of anti-racism.
