Youtube video


What are your opinions about this?

To me I don't really see why some people get so angry at seeing an LGBT armband or flag, I think that you can easily ignore them if they bother you.

I am probably seen as an anti-Woke person to some people depending on the topic, so I'm not someone that's without any sympathy towards everything that the Anti-Woke crowd argues against.

I just personally can't understand or support the anti-LGBT stuff.

football follows the money. We are kidding ourselves if we think its anything else. Sponsors will change, politics will change and football will follow along

It’s the flag of a new "leftist" identitarian establishment that is determined to let the little people know whose ideas rule in the 21st century. Its used by them to pinkwash global businesses. Look here at our flag but not at us making billions etc

its political and ideology and has NO place in football

How did you arrive at that conclusion? Is it a crime of ultra-wokeness to support LGBT folk?

Imagine being someone who thinks whisky constitutes a fine breakfast, 2 days off a week is too many, cannabis is more destructive than alcohol and being a gay footballer or in demonstrable support of it is too woke.

I've really nothing to add to your post.
I agree with it all.

Your last line particularly is wholly appropriate in my view

especially with fake footballers like Xavi Simons, whom are more overpaid influencers

politics is in sport, it has been upfront and centre for at least 10 years. There is no going back now

It’s only weak fragile men that seem to be triggered by anything related to LGBTQ. This is proven over and over.

Sport itself in the grand scheme of things is completely irrelevant in terms of things that actually matter. It’s a hobby. One that people take way too seriously.

Tbf, Glenn's right that Sport is a hobby from a viewers perspective.

Admittedly it's less so for the Athletes themselves.

it's £60 for a child to go and watch Man U play, of course they take it seriously. Billions are spent by clubs in europe every year on players. Nothing could be further from a hobby

If you’re sad enough to be paying that to watch 22 guys kick a football around then that’s on you. Definitely a hobby. An exploited one.

Ok I’ll say it’s an issue that’s been extremely exaggerated by the far right. The same ones that are triggered by a flag.
