No, I am not kneeling because I will probably never get up again However, I don't have a problem with watching BLM run its course because something else will inevitably replace it.

How can you be kicked out for booing. I also will turn away or just cover my eyes whilst they're doing it.

I haven't read the whole thread, but the BLM movement is highly politically charged and divisive and world sport have made a mistake by making a stance. Should have remained impartial. 99% are not racist but many in the centre or slightly to the right strongly object to having a left wing agenda force fed to them on a daily basis my the media. Regardless of your view, I'm pretty sure there will be a lot booing when the crowds return and it will have to be cancelled at that point.

I'm not being asked to kneel so makes absolutely no difference to me if players want to take a knee or not and 8 seconds of players kneeling doesn't make me angry or not want to watch football.

Watching online yesterday, they only seemed to go down for 3/4 seconds before they were up and off again - maybe they are tired of it too!

Also, the commentator pointed out they were doing it under the banner of No Room For Racism. Seems like the premier league and other organisations are distancing themselves from BLM.
