Fuck me WOW...
Great timing we are staying a protest march tomorrow then. Our once great Club that used to represent so much good is now captured.
Kieran Fox is a Gooner by the way.
Fucking Club is rotten from top to bottom.
LEST WE FORGET

This poppies on shirts has only been a thing since 2012 anyway.
If its left to the players to decide, i think you're all going to be disappointed. And they are not going to want division in the team over this.
Couldn't give a fuck. They're happy enough to take the knee like gimps, they can also tolerate wearing a Poppy for those that died so we can live ours in relative peace. Silly cunts wouldn't know they're born to take such a stance..

Again, it should be made compulsory as it was before the change. This is the Clubs decision. They should be leading, not pandering to woke bollocks.
What change?
Mate, let's agree to disagree on this one, eh?
Sure thing. I come from a family - and someone who cares passionately about my Country - connected heavily to the military so this means a lot to me, especially with connections to supporting the Club.

Some players in the U21s tonight were not wearing a poppy.
As I've said, that's the players choice.
Not neccesarily the decision of the club, because as you say, some players are not wearing one which indicates that others are. So, not dictated by the club.

Honestly mate, what are the club supposed to do if the player chooses not to wear a poppy?
I fucking detest the board, but am not really sure what they've done wrong in this instance.

There should also be compulsory wearing of a badge pledging allegiance to our elected Prime Minister
Massive ,
You have been selected to appear on the pitch at 2.50pm to read the tribute to our much loved elected leader
Hope you can get through it without your voice breaking with emotion

It absolutely is the Clubs fault for pandering to 1 thing yet devalue the whole point of players representing our Club paying respects to those that lost their lives so we can all enjoy ours. It's not asking for much. It should have been left as compulsory if you want to represent this Football Club with strong links to the Blitz or indeed this lot...

They wore poppies on their shirts Vs Leeds and the U21 currently have poppies on their shirts Vs Liverpool.

Personal choice.
After all, that's why our forefathers paid the ultimate sacrifice, to enable the generations that followed them to HAVE this choice.
I for one will always wear a poppy/pin purchased from the RBLI website annually.
To each their own, I suppose.
Yet players are guilty tripped in to taking the knee whenever the powers that be click their fingers.

I agree, but the majority of supporters would want to see our club support the RBL, honour the war heroes and the armed forces.
Agree mate.

I'm probably gonna get pelters for this. But I'd prefer football to be without the following
Poppies
Rainbows
Knee taking
Sick kids
Dead people
Disasters
No minutes silence except for ex players
Charities
National anthems
In fact it should only be about football, the end
My relatives died aged 19 and 21 at the river kwai, if you want to pay respects go to the cenotaph, but you'd be better off having a pint, going to the hammers and forget about all the bad stuff in the world.
I think the poppy appeal transcends the rest. We're here, right here right now, because of ALL those who have fought in wars, whether win or lose. And a lot of those who had died would have been pointless.
The army were also pretty instrumental early in the game of football (the Royal Engineers won the FA Cup after losing 3 finals including the first ever one) and helped spread the game around the world.
So yeah, I think they deserve a bit of respect in football.
