Not a thread that I was planning on making but it's something that's been on my mind since attending the friendlies at the weekend.
I was disappointed in a small minority of our fans this weekend with their reaction to our own players taking the knee. To hear boos around the ground due to this gesture promoting equality is a PR disaster for the club waiting to happen. The taking of the knee as many of our own players have come out and said is nothing to do with any political movement but about equality.
Can I ask, if you did boo - what were your reasons for booing? Is it a case of you think it is the BLM political movement you are showing displeasure at, instead of the reasons our players have stated? Is it something else entirely that I am missing.
I did think the players were stopping the knee due to Glen Kamara being racially abused so I was slightly surprised to see it return.
