Boycott Qatar

Agreed. The other lads are getting the beers in around a different house each time. I miss that. I still feel turning my back on it is the right thing to do no matter how many may mock and scorn. I'm used to being in the minority. I am aware my actions will have no effect on Qatar but I feel better for having a conscience.

Your action will have an effect. Think global, act local. I don't mind if people watch it and won't criticize but the action of teams like Germany and Belgium are encouraging.

Problem with have Adidas kits is that you know any other club who has them and has stripes basically just has the exact same kit as us.

See Stoke City of recent years.

True there is a template vibe, but Stokes white shorts and no black involvement seems lame to me. Brentford kist have been better than ours of late
 
66 and gay rights in England compared to 22 Qatar.

Excatly the same. Many were arrested or afraid to attend. 2 men were denied entry to the final for holding hands.

Should we abolish our win.

For the same offences that qatar have now??

What is the difference.

No wonder the krays went mad and murdered all anti gays. But that's allowed and ok wasn't it.

Many star male actors were banned from attending for admitting they were in a homosexual relationship and had their tickets taken away.

Now it's a Muslim country with same laws we have to boycott.

Explain why??

The world is a different place
We were a democracy , which brings about change.
The Middle East is a cesspit of fascist dictatorships
We could protest in 66. Let’s see what happens if you protest for change in the Middle East - in the KSA you tweet against the fascist dictator -,imprisoned for 34 yrs. write articles and you’re chopped up by hit squads.
Comparing the two is ridiculous

In 2022 in England that would be seen as normal. It’s seen as a crime out there. It was never a crime here. It wasn’t obviously as tolerated as it is now

Well done. The whataboutery has now moved to Dr who style time travel. I'd say take a bow son but if your in the Kingdom doing that someone may just take your head
