Taking the knee has set race relations in football back 20 years and is divisive, not inclusive as it should have been (just link arms standing or clap FFS). Excessive virtual signalling makes you look silly when bringing it into Sport.
It really hasn't.
Look at the crap England have faced when in places like Hungary & Bulgaria; taking the knee hasn't caused that.....
Blaming the racist abuse received by the England penalty missers on 'the knee' is deeply flawed and serves to excuse unacceptable behaviour.
Southgate needs to concentrate on why he’s struggling rather than whine about the poor penalties in the Euro final that we’re the result of shit technique.
He fucked up with what he said this week; but you're clearly mis-interpretting what was both asked and said.
