Generic small time football blather thread FOREVER

Of course it is. It supports a cause, the definition of promotion, in this case LGBTQ+ rights. This country has made huge steps in having gay rights recognised and rightly so, especially given the historic treatment of those persecuted for it, but I think within the last few years, we've gone beyond the equilibrium to a point where some institutions just seem to have lost sight of what the original message sought to achieve and now it's just something that has to be front and centre first and foremost and actually running a company 2nd. We've become obsessed with sexuality, obsessed with pronouns, and creating division by identity. What was originally fought for is now open to abuse. People are afraid of saying what is a scientific fact. The whole idea of choice and freedom to be whoever you wish to be is suddenly reversed if someone decides that they don't want to wear the armbands/rainbows for whatever reason they choose but are forced to. -

Total bollocks but if you want to make light of it, then crack on. -

I personally do not care whether someone is gay or not, people should be left alone to do whatever they want as consenting adults, but if I'm given a choice, I'm not wearing a rainbow armband. I don't wish to promote sexuality in my job because I don't see it relevant in the industry I'm in (yet they push it), same as I don't see how sport should be virtue signalling certain sectors of society and not others. I get that the incessant campaign by Stonewall has improved the acceptance of others, but then I think we've gone far beyond just loving men or women to acquiescing with mental health and trying to see that as normal just because they link it with sexuality. Guehi for me is hiding behind religion but then I don't think any employed footballer would dare say anything different because they'd be cancelled by their club and by the loud vocal minority on social media. I don't think anyone should be forced to promote something else against their will, otherwise all we are doing is shutting down the right to and individual opinion. -
Eddie has more than enough credits for me to survive the season even if it's bang average. Doesn't stop me being pissed off with every loss.

Literally just seen the damage to the car. Doesn't look good at all. -
Players need to look at themselves. We seem to make changes from the bench which look strong, but then we quickly go to shit. It's been the same for the Brighton game, Palace, WHU and now this.

At least it put us out of our misery. Promising first half, fucking shambles of a second.
-
If the bus is on the edge of our penalty area id agree. They look more likely to get another rather than us equalise.
-
We've lost our shape. I don't see us coming back from this.
-
Such a poor goal to concede
-
Hall is such a tidy player. Grows with every game..
-
Bruno having a great game again.
-
Any later and you might as well get it on VHS.

Now just need Isak to make up for his and we will be golden.
-
Avenged!
-
Think Barnes tried to switch that and just didn't get the loft on it.
-
Terrible
-
Good game so far.
-
Isak has to use that as fuel to make amends now
-
Dear me
-
Murphy put a lovely ball in for Bruno just before too
-
Hot streak incoming?
-
Nice one Murph
-
Knew Mbeumo would score against us.
