The Football Association will adopt “a commonsense approach” if Premier League players heed the call from the chairman of Kick It Out to take a knee in protest at the killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis.
Knee for solidarity
virtuesignalling
It's fine let them do it
Common sense being to shut up and stay out of it because it’s nothing to do with them, of course.
Hope the FA idea of 'common sense' is better than that by borris and his buffoons
But no action if they wear a T-shirt supporting a racist, or if there captain is a racist.JT
Taking knee or shouting for justice isnt political, it is showing humanity and compassion
what does it mean?
I don't understand why anyone would do anything other than just let them? The only person who has a problem with peaceful protesting is trump.
What will they do when they find out how many are killed by state agents in the Middle East and China?
FA should praise and support it fully
What do we do with the ones that don't take a knee?
This should be adopted globally. Those who choose to take a knee in support should never be punished. We should each one of us have control over our own bodies.

How about when Saudi money is pumped into the league, will Kick It Out ask players to take knee against Saudi atrocities in Yemen?

Women's football must escape shackles of the FA if it is to thrive after this crisis | Suzanne WrackThe governing body has made it clear the men’s game will always come first, but inspiration lies across the Atlantic You mean the FA that’s been funding your clubs and letting you use top stadiums and facilities? Be careful what you wish for, if the fan base isn’t there whose going to prop up the women’s game? SuzyWrack This is a brilliant article, I have been saying this for a while. People assume I am dismissive of women's football, I'm not. I just don't want it to fall into the problems as years ago, where it is reliant on funds that can be withdrawn at any time.
