Still not sure if you are a parody account or just a knuckle-dragging moron. Or possibly both… very tedious either way.

More paper cups on that pitch than the aftermath of Reading Festival.
Well done Raheem, Harry and the lads for giving the fascist huns a good, old fashioned thrashing.

I would first like to say that I don’t approve of racist abuse, less still monkey chanting. But I also don’t like this ‘taking the knee’ business.
Personally I won’t boo this, I would simply turn my back on the players while they do it.

If real this is the reason there is so much hatred! Said before race and skin colour or your religion is not a reason to abuse people!!!

Hold on, there must be black people in Hungary. Maybe not in their National team (yet) but surely those so called ‘ultras’ must be cheering on black players when supporting their local teams?
Perhaps they dislike English players in general. Everybody knows how pampered they are and how much money they get.

This is 100% the same as my feelings, I also do not approve of racism or chanting, but I do not approve of this take the knee thing, and have said exactly the same thing to people, although I have not come into contact with it, only on TV, but I would just turn away from the players if doing it whilst I am attending a game or where ever, I would hope that people would respect my views as well as I do theirs.

Where did we get the idea that the knee was Marxist in origin? It was started by American football players! BLM later coopted it, but its original meaning wasn’t rooted in any kind of specific ideology.

Regardless of the overall political stance of the people who came up with the take the knee, the specific campaign is necessary. The Hungarian “fans” this week and the English “fans” reactions to the Euros show how necessary it is. If Nigel Farage had started it, it would still be necessary and good campaign.
It has got the racists out of their shells and coming up with their “I’m not a racist, but…” style crap. Which might just help the campaign work, as people get a good chance to see the ignorance behind the racism.
If you want the take the knee campaign to stop, stop hating people because of their nationality or skin tone. Because if we can rid ourselves of racism, the campaign would no longer be necessary.

The BLM movement did not invent kneeling as a way of showing respect. Christian churchgoers have used it extensively for 2,000 years.
I don’t know this for sure but expect the number of Marxists in the England mens football squad is approximately zero.
Can we let go of this bullshit that opposition to sportspeople taking the knee is an anti Marxist stance. Anyone that does not support anti racist gestures has every right to do so but at least have the balls to admit that is what you are doing.
Personally I would prefer 10 seconds of both teams and officials linking with arms over one another’s shoulders with the message of equality and all lives matter. However, taking the knee is better than doing nothing about equality which is what most of society does.
