Greater racial equality in football according to Andros’s dad. Probably keep on campaigning and keeping the issue in the spotlight.

It’s using their platform to highlight a massive issue in society. Of course they can’t effect the change themselves, as much as Marcus Rashford is doing amazing things single handedly. It’s forcing the entire country to have a long overdue uncomfortable conversation. Would love to watch some dads try explain to their kids why they’re booing the knee. ‘That bloody Karl Marx’.

What they mean is that they want more Black people in material jobs, despite the fact that there are only a small percentage of Black people in the country. It's not enough that 25% of PL footballers are Black, 20% or more than the Black population as a whole. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (12 Jun 2021 11.32pm)

If they paid their income tax they’d be more likely to help issues in society.

Not on their image rights payments.

HMRC and players have an accepted % of what constitutes image rights. Ironically it’s the lower league players trying to take the p*ss rather than the superstars.
