Even the locals are more fans of players than clubs or countries. If Messi would try something, I would like to see what the FIFA does, he is bigger than FIFA right now in the eyes of supporters around the world. Ronaldo, Neymar, Neuer, Van Dijk,... they are the faces of football, not Infantino or Qatar. However, I don't think these players want to get into this. Harry Kane has the IQ of a spud. He's not some civil rights activist, he's being told what to do by the FA. This is all getting a bit silly, they are there to play football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is a symbol of respect and remembrance for people who have died and has **** all impact on what's going on in the World today. The other is a campaign against hate which is, sadly, still in the World today. Guess which one the homophobes and racists think is more important? So everyone who feels the poppy is more important than the rainbow armband is a racist and homophobic?, You have just backed up everything wrong with this forum with that comment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This WC is a farce. What a joke. Both nations said they would wear them whatever the consequences, then pussy out of it.
