De Jong and Neuer will also not wear them.

Is less than an inch offside worth stopping the game for. It could have been a crease in his shorts or snot hanging out of his nose. Pathetic.

You've got to believe we can do it!
Everyone's all over Brazil, lets wait and see shall we. Spain looked good on paper in 2014!

Let Southgate wear the armband for the first match and take the booking. In the second match let the assistant manager/coach (Steve Holland ??) wear it and get the booking. Third match the goalkeeping coach wears it and gets booked. Fourth match the physio wears it and gets booked. And so on for as long as we remain in the tournament. Will highlight the ridiculous rules that FIFA are trying to implement without affecting the teams' chances of success.
Either that, or what I'd really like to see is Kane wear it and get booked. He then passes the armband on to Pickford who I assume would also get booked. Carry on passing it round the team and the substitutes until it gets back to Kane and see if the ref has the balls to book him a second time. Would make a proper statement if we got 5 players sent off before the start of our first game and it had to be abandoned.

I imagine they would tenuously link it to the laws about non-standard kit, such revealing logos under your shirt and so on. We need the FA to make a stand and back the team on it, but it seems like they won't bother. At the end of the day wearing a particular armband isn't going to do anything anyway.

Last time the FA went down this route we had England and all visiting teams doing the Nazi salute and that didn’t end well.
Time for the European nations to grow a pair and walk away from the whole money making farce.

The players shouldn’t be in the position where they’re having to risk getting booked at the start of the match and play the rest holding back to avoid a second.
In my view they shouldn’t be there in the first place. The FA of each country should’ve had the balls to withdraw from the competition as soon as it was clear Qatar had been given it. Imagine the statement it would’ve made if the likes of England, Germany, France, Spain etc weren’t at the World Cup through a boycott. Never gonna happen though, money talks.

Been in a bar in Newcastle since 9.30, place is buzzing. Lots of younger fans (early 20s) which is refreshing to see.

Or, give it to Maguire, he gets booked. Then to TAA, he gets booked. Backed to Maguire, red card. Back to TAA, red card

. That's keen. Have you been keeping up with the youngsters or have you been more sophisticated and drinking cappuccinos all morning?

In my opinion, let the players concentrate on the football, they shouldn’t have to play political games.

Should have been sorted out years ago....players are in a no-win situation.
They're there to try and win a football tournament.

Looks like England are going to play 4-2-3-1.
I like the look of that. No need for the 3 centre halves in the group stage, save that for the QF against France.
I'm not expecting to be dazzled by the performance today, but a turgid 1-0 will do for the opening game.

But the players where the ones who wanted to make the statement. Shame the squad and the FA folded.
