So patronising and so sneering. Pretty confident I have far more letters after my name than you do.

Awkward whoever gave him a red. He went in two footed but there was no contact made. Play on in my book.

This hasn't been HOLs greatest moment, but if it's creating too much work for mods I'd much rather lose a thread than a long time poster. Temperatures had been rising across the board really, so a straight red for one person seems drastic. Hopefully this decision can be revisited.

I don't think I'll be taking any notice of mings moralising.
When you're caught on camera stamping on another players face you cede the high ground.
To then do it again and put the bloke he did it to in hospital, well...
Should never have been allowed near the England team after that.

If its Tom then be ashamed danh.
A black poster got cancelled for decrying that racism is as bad as you make out. A black poster who has faced racism first hand growing up. A black poster who has experience of what you claim to know so much about.
Been it, seen it, done it.
Mods are watching this thread like a hawk because they are so afraid of allowing a post through that might offend. Woke wins so cancel culturres clearly isn't dying! This is turning into bbs mk2.
Soon it will be and then you can all Pat each other on the back about how fabulous it all is.
When they came for me...........

Personally I think this thread should now be locked. This is a subject that has caused division both on here and at football grounds. We are on here, I assume, as we are all Palace fans, pre-season is starting and hopefully it is a start on an exciting chapter in the history of our club.
Tom was wrong in his language but he should be allowed back on here, as he is a good poster and t am sure he realises he over stepped the mark. I also hope Dan, who again is a good poster, even if I don’t normally agree with him, realises his comment “ more letter after my name” was ridiculous and childish, for obvious reasons . There has been antagonistic posts on here simply to provoke a reaction from “pant wetters” Well it certainly did that.
Time to move on, everyone to calm down, re-instate Tom and lock this thread.

Not surprised you’re so scared and sneering at this current lot. They are smart. They are street wise. They have engagement, a direct channel to speak to the country through social media and they have the country on their side. Role models to hundreds of thousands of kids wanting to be just like them.

People like you aren’t just losing the argument you’re sinking without trace.

You just make assertions and half truths.

What utter tripe.

If that isn't bringing sport into politics, then what is? The IOC (International Olympic Committee) have apparently told athletes not to do the knee at Tokyo because it is a 'political gesture'.

When you have this confusion (FA says it isn't political) then no wonder people are confused, angry and simply fed up with it all.

This thread just shows what a bad plan taking the knee was. The abuse following penalties In euros and Wembley break in and booing national anthems shows over 30 years other than players salaries and costs to fans, little has changed.
With the current observed mentality the more done to try and support a sensitive issue the more friction it causes. Like this thread, I would close it, cease the knee and get players to boycott social media and focus on something else that does not allow the abuse. Maybe more time training which is what they are paid for.
I don’t use Twitter and it doesn’t ruin my life. In fact the opposite. Social media is far from perfect.
