Remember the Romanians all bleaching their hair……. the players should each dye their hair a different colour. No one player is making a statement, they just having a funky hair colour, it’s purely coincidence that when the team lines up that their hairs are a rainbow flag.
Foreign secretary advice to LGBT fans.... Be respectful

Yes that's how we get change and inspiration in the world!
Like for instance me working in live events business, I'll just work and never think for my own from now on. I'll never try to increase pressure and influence so that equality for all and representation is fair and for all despite sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender or non gender, no bloody messages or fighting what I believe is right and how I think the world should be instead of it being bigoted unequal and egoistic. Sounds fun
Thanks for the advice I'll be much better off now and surely well respected by my straight cis gray haired male collegues
Great thinking. If only those slaves stayed at their plantation, things would be so much better.
And since you are in Moscow (or your username claims as much), if only the Russian structures stayed the same, things would be so much better for the tsar. Admittedly, things are not looking that different there nowadays but still...
In a world where people are completely fine with billionaires being born into that money and becoming gods, reality tv goons becoming presidents and snake oil salesmen becoming the most important thing to US elections...
I do agree though, all this talk about armbands is a joke. But only because it's now been made one. Wear the fecking thing or don't, but stop pretending to be some good guy on a moral stance you absolute pricks...this applies to all of them, Neville, Beckham, Kane, all of them. Stand for something or don't, but don't waste our time whilst building your fortunes.
So gay footballers are not allowed to play in this world cup?
What?
Just throwing a question. If just a symbolic armband is not allowed then will they allow actual gay footballers?
Yes.
Good on you Alex Scott
Good girl.
I don't get this fuss about armbands.
They didn't say anything about laces
Quite a few people also don't.
where did you hear this?
The Dutch FA, in a moment of heroic defiance, has decided principles are nice but not worth a yellow card.
Good on them. Do you hear the people sing.
Good on them. Do you hear the people sing.
Hypothetical question.
Just maybe some have gay teammates and they know they have gay teammates, they might have friends who are gay.
Ohhhh they’ll be some piss boiled now, a woman with a One Love armband
She's wearing a one love armband while standing on the sidelines.
It's because absolute fake clown millionaires like Southgate and Kane made a huge issue about speaking for LGBTQ+ rights to justify participation in this tournament in a country that clearly has human rights issues, so they made a big point of pretending to give a shit.
Now they don't give a shit right before the tournament begins. Shocker.
Absolutely.
Well then don't do the obvious and back down right before the start.
As someone said they haven't mentioned rainbow laces. I would have the whole lot wearing them. Wear rainbow vests under your shirts, when game over take shirts off and do a lap of honour.
Good to see the ignorant caf members make themselves loud and clear in this thread.
Good.
I do agree with not allowing drunk people into my house, especially if I am sober. They're just fecking annoying.
Or just wear the armband you've made a big fecking deal about.
Why sneak shit in? Pick a stand and make it. These pricks were supposed to do that, the whole build up has been about that. Now they show how cowardly they are and don't actually give a shit. And as per usual, it will all be forgotten after the first goal.
I do agree they should wear it. It would have put FIFA in an awkward position which would be justified. Pity they cannot all withdraw from FIFA and set up their own association.
Of course she is, I'm sure Kane would wear the armband all day in the BBC studios.
Love this
The ones in the studio aren't. She is stood on the touchline in full few of the fans and FIFA officials.
Why are they pricks? They are not the oppressors here.
It takes a lot of courage to do what armchair advocates on here are insulting them for not doing. They don't deserve any applause for doing nothing, but they don't deserve insults either.
What a sellout. It's embarrassing. Hopefully FIFA is held responsible in some way after this is all over. All the fans should break out singing "I kissed a girl and I liked it" during the game.
Yeah but there isn't a punishment for it? She can't get a yellow? It not like she's risking jail time?
As I said. Why are there only seven associations who got involved? It is too few. A lot more associations and FIFA might have thought twice about their actions.
Sick of hearing of or seeing this dam armband now. If they feel that strongly about it, wear it regardless.
So she shouldn't have bothered.
It’s a big shame the FA have been bullied, but so many people will jump at any chance to bash England, bit weird when it’s coming from supporters of an English team, but that’s how it is on here sadly.
