Completely support. If your offended by players taking a stance against racism then seriously take a look at yourself
Completely in agreement with this comment.

The question wasn't " If your offended " I don't think anybody is offended but a lot of people may think it has gone on too long
The oppression of black lives has gone on far too long. Racism is alive and kicking, just look at the racists on here. BLM TAKE THE KNEE.

If a person wants to do something that is small and silent to make a point, whatever it may be, who are we to stop it?
Those folk saying keeping politics out of football...have a word, football, along with many things is highly politicised and will forever be that way.

I go to the match to support my club and it’s players and voice that support as much as possible in hope (I know sometimes blind!) that we might actually win a game.
If they want to take the knee then I don’t feel it’s appropriate to voice my opinion on them, as I want them running through brick walls for me and my club not drunk off because a few choose to boo them before the start of the match. Getting behind our players helps win games and they need our support now more than ever!!!
I’m neither for or against the knee however I do wonder if it’s actually making a difference and changing things?? It seems to be a lip service gesture but what has it changed? The world is still a big bad place at times with racial hatred being fuelled every second of everyday against all faiths and is not limited to the skin colour.

When I first started work my manager said to be never get into an arguement with stupid people.A very good piece of advice. They are so bigoted they are beyond reason.

This perfectly shows that whatever the rights and wrongs of BLM it is a disaster to bring football into it. Anything political will always divide the fan base. We all have different views of the world but the minute we put on our replica shirts or bobble hats we should pull in the same direction. I saw a statement from Milwall last night basically saying get with the programme or else. They and many people seem to have lost track of why they exist - because of the fans, for the fans of all races, creeds, colours political beliefs. Go woke, go broke as the phrase goes.

How can any white people even begin to comprehend the amount of prejudice that still exist in Britain today.Anyone who feels threated by B.L.M are part of the problem,
Well stated sir. It is a statement of the continuing oppression of black people, it's still a world wide disease. People are still judged by the colour of their skin. By continuing to take the knee highlights the injustice. Of course all lives matter but this issue is about the continuing racism and oppression of black lives. This has to end. In 1968 Black Athletes tried to make a statement it's sad that we are still trying to make that statement 52 years later. BLM TAKE THE KNEE.

I dont judge anyone by their appearance or origin and think all races should be treated equally. However, if we ever get back to watch a game and the players pull this stunt it will result in loud and sustained booing from myself. Enough is enough. How anyone cant think that is racist is beyond me
