Does booing come under the category of " abusive"?

They will struggle to eject the numbers who will boo when crowds return fully  if they are still doing it.

Freedom of speech/expression only protects you from the government. This is why we don't throw people in prison for disagreeing with the government or calling them all twits. Private companies have the right to deny service to anyone they want. You could try to appeal it without a leg to stand on but wouldn't waste your time. The only time throwing somebody out or refusing service tends to become a legal dispute is on grounds of discrimination.

It does not count as discrimination if they don't want you expressing your angry political views at a football match.

Where will this end the clubs cannot stop it now or it looks like they are bowing to the boo boys.
Fans are annoyed because they cannot voice disapproval to the blm movement without risk of being banned.
Players talking about walking off the pitch ( Try Deeney) it’s going to end in tears the FA should never of started this nonsense.

Would you boo this gesture? If so, can you explain your rationale?

Yes defintely. I would boo it as its a gesture started in the states in support of a political, racist, marxist movement which i am happy to stand against.
End racism, kick it out, standing linking arms, banners, badges happy with all of them as i agree with the message not the current methods of highlighting it. So yes i will be booing

Almost 50% never. But this is not an election where the majority wins. Even in an election the minority still have a right to voice their disapproval against things they disagree with.

It's not illegal, but it is breach of contract. The football club has entered in to a contract to let you watch a football match, but you have also contractually agreed to follow certain guidelines on behaviour. Unless those include booing then they are in breach of contract. They can't claim its racist as you are booing a political gesture.

Edit: This isn't the same going into Tesco where they can refuse you entry or to serve you for any reason they see fit as long as it isn't on the grounds of race, religion or gender. The club can refuse to sell you a ticket, they can refuse you entry to the club shop. However, as soon as they have sold you the ticket you and the club have a contract. If they fail to uphold their side by refusing you entry to the ground on a match day, or ejecting you from the ground for something that is not listed in the terms and conditions, then they are in breach of contract
