I am not being controversial I really cannot see the point indeed I suspect it could cause problems in the crowd, it was reported on five live that there was booing at some grounds, Burnley & Sunderland were mentioned, the booing was met with abuse by another section of the crowd. Therefore it could cause discord, the very opposite to what I suspect it was intended.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin refused to kneel yesterday- I read a spin that claimed he was booed for not kneeling. Most other outlets saying the kneeling gesture was booed.

It's all bollox anyway. It took about two seconds at the Etihad, and TBH, I never heard anyone booing either the kneeling or Calvert-Lewin not kneeling.
I don't give a toss if they do or don't, but I do agree it's all a bit pointless.

I genuinely didn't realise they'd done it, not sure where I was looking at the time

I think that was the Burnley v Leeds game the booing was for taking the knee, I know Burnley people & believe me they are not happy with our diverse multicultural society & that’s putting mildly
