Kneeling monkeys !!

One should kneel before God and no one else. England's team offended the children and the viewers.

northcotetrevel 😂😂😂brilliant even the kids know what complete nob heads look like

I thought everyone had got over that 'take the knee' nonsense!

Why! It was a disgrace to politicise this movement yet again. Do they never learn?

The people who have enslaved humanity are still doing it .. taking the knee just shows who is a 🐑 to what goes on in the world. The slavery happening today is far worse than at any point in history.

Brilliant, it takes children to point out this meaningless display of virtue signalling! Well done those Hungarian children.

Southgate is dividing communities when he continues with making the England players kneel

Hungary should be respected for controlling its borders and putting the Hungarian people first. The Hungarian children agree.

Southgate should stop the political nonsense and get on with winning football matches

This taking the knee nonsense needs to stop!!!

Thousands

Will they be taking the knee and wearing rainbow armbands when they play in Qatar?

Gareth not good enough 😩

Didn't realise this knee nonsense was still going on. Not surprised the Hungarian supporters weren't happy.

Hungary is another forpost for mazi russia

Enough is enough

Your BrexitBonus? Suck it up. Your sick.

One has to wonder why there are so many people who are deeply&mortally offended by a team of footballers wanting to show solidarity with fellow people of colour & their colleagues who are supporting them. And before you chirp up 'Marxist, politics' - 90% don't believe in that.

Bwahahaha, good.

Well done to the kids. England players still kneeling for more Mansions for blm

Southgate's stupidity in pledging his team to a criminal racist gesture is as bad as his football tactics Should have gone after the calamity of the euro's

andrewamg Will Gareth Southgate instruct his team to make a similar gesture in Qatar for those who have suffered due to that country’s appalling record of human rights abuses? Otherwise he’s a hypocrite.

This gesture has passed by and has become meaningless. There has to be a better way of promoting racial awareness

andrewamg Imagine poor young kids having a lot more sense than our multi millionaire footballers!

They still doing that Bollocks?

It’s about time EUFA/FIFA banned England doing this woke gesture in countries that are not woke. It’s arrogant, you can’t force woke culture on free thinking people.

You can’t force US/UK woke culture on Eastern Europe, it’s their country.

Gareth Southgate should've had a quiet word with those naughty Hungarian schoolchildren! He needed to remind them that our virtue-signalling is very important to us as a nation, and that we are scared not to take the knee, unlike many brave countries.

Yeap! Taking the knee, the UK is also sending “illegal refugees” to Rwanda. And children are the ones to blame 🤔

and booed by telegraph readers.

The kids have more sense than the FA.

I'm proud of them school kids !

Explain why they are kneeling ?

Good to see how well educated the kids in Eastern Europe are as they object to millionaire footballers kneeling in support of the racism that is BLM

W4NKERS

Time this nonsense kneeling stopped.

Ridiculous footballers should learn how to play properly, not cry. Boooooooooooooooooo boooóoooooooooooooo im black and indian booooooooo Boooooo i wont starve because a boooooooo booooooo booooooo

TwitTwitTwitetc those kids have more sense i see this crp is still going on

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Why would anyone kneel for a racist organization like the BLM ?

Excellent

Good !

Southgate should be furious about his players performance, not for even schoolchildren able to see through the hypocrisy of the kneeling. england Qatar2022 woke

tina_tinalondon Loophole ... the kids were just using free speech , whats wrong with that ?

Strongly worded letter from Gareth in the post using his new Crayola coloured pencils

… out of the mouths of babes and fools , comes the truths 😎

He's in the wrong job then.

England are disappearing up their own arse.

It’s a meaningless woke virtue signalling gesture.

Glad the rugby guys stopped this nonsense ages ago. Achieving absolutely nothing. If they hadn’t to make a gesture then donate 80% of their salaries, will still have plenty left.

Orban Youth.

Respect to those kids!

Southgate can't see the woke wood for the trees. Our football is average, concentrate on just that.

With more focus on the football and less on that propaganda they may not have lost.

and also all the people watching on tv - someone needs to stop it

Wow. If they’re triggered by a simple gesture they’re going to have miserable lives.

England players jeered while taking knee in Hungary despite stadium banUefa is facing renewed questions over the credibility of its anti-racism sanctions after England players were once again jeered when they took the knee before their Nations League game with Hungary A thumping victory is the best form of reply. Virtue signalling deserves booing. Plenty of teams don't do it either. So what. That game should have been cancelled and awarded England a 0-3, but UEFA and FIFA are not reliable organizations.
