Cheds Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I'm sure there are no issues with the Black Lives Matter initiative but thinking if mibbies the TA could do something to recognize Marcus Rashford's work this year. Me thinks it would really get under the skin of a good portion of their support as well as recognizing the lads work ... I am ready to be carpeted for extending credit to a player from the one nation we don't indulge. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Can't say I follow what he gets up to very closely, so I might have missed something. But is his campaigning linked to BLM in any way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't be... by anyone with a functional brain stem. Rashford is a shining example to every famous person, not just footballers. If a person is in a fortunate position to make change - and help the less fortunate - and they do, they should be praised, by all corners. He certainly sets a better example than David "I'm not giving UNICEF my f*cking money" Beckham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertsscot Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Im not massively one for footballers taking the knee before games, largely as it's not tied to specific desires changes. Les Ferdinand very eloquently dismissed it some time back as a pointless exercise. However it might make a bit of an impact of teams did it at the Euros, might send out a powerful message to one of two idiot supporters.

Or a chant or two. But when the whistle blows boooooo the fuck out of him and aw the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iainmac1 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I have no problem with politics in football, politics is rife throughout football across the world. But applauding a rival player or dome display for him in a game like this...frck right off with that attention seeking nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheds Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 Fair point on the politics from a number of folks. That splits opinions probably aboui used t 50/50. Someone else made a good t point that what I was getting at was his work for disadvantaged children ... spot on. I was too lazy to come up with a decent thread name so just lumped it in with BLM. There was suggestion that the TA charity activity somehow link with his work as a bit of recognition. Certainly won't be clapping him once the game kicks-off. In fact wi a bit of luck he'll still no be fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Hibs Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 If Rashford and other rich footballers stopped all their tax avoidance antics and paid the taxes us and all these underprivileged folk have to, then there would be enough coffers in the Treasury to pay for all these free meals, etc., without the need for all these hollow, psuedo-saviour gestures from media attention whores.

Just footballers? How about Lewis Hamilton, etc? And "media attention whores" is a bit strong. These days media is the only way to get things changed. What do you think of Boris Johnston's reaction to Rashford if he send him a letter. He would've been ignored, or patronized. It came out in the media, therefore, Johnston's hands were tied. Rashford is young, he's a millionaire, he has the best job in the world, he plays for the biggest club in the word, he plays at World Cups, etc. One thing in his young life that he hasn't been short of, is media attention.
