Premier League 2019-2020 we’re off

[NWJocko]

We can only walk off if we're 100% sure we'll be awarded the victory though. As that shows our actions are being backed. Currently nobody seems sure if that will happen.

What does winning have to do about it? If you're being backed it's Uefa that need to step up and remove games from these countries to take away the platform these idiots have.

As someone else said, that's true of the FA and England (and SFA and Scotland re sectarianism), Southgate went way up in my estimation when he was shining the spotlight on our own country(ies), a lot of work to be done here aswell.

really? so the result is more important than stamping out racism? get the priorities right!!!!!

The result is irrelevant at the end of the day , it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things - this is players being subjected to constant racist abuse - is the result more crucial than that

Following on from what we said earlier - if the result isn't awarded then that only encourages the losing fans to abuse players in the hope of getting it abandoned doesn't it. Would be no deterrent at all. Use your loaf.

The nation's have to be given defeats and subsequently banned from competing, anything less and the abusive fans will not care.

Great goal from Sterling.

I think if they were going to come off they have had enough abuse ,if you threaten to do something you must follow through with it.

I feel a bit uncomfortable that it's down to the players to stamp out racism, it shouldn't be that way.

Worst case we play them again behind close doors, that’s still better than allowing a player to be abused.

Sorry but thats horseshit, if UEFA arent going to sort it which they clearly arent then the teams need to lead and not accept it, pull their sides off and put more pressure onto UEFA to force them to the right thing

 

[Slime]

So what is the answer then ? The game carries on whilst players are subjected to abuse ? Why should stand there and listen to it - it needs drastic action to force the authorities into stronger sanctions and walking off does that

I don't know, obviously.
I just don't think that walking off is the answer.

no it shouldnt but if there is a clear protocol and UEFA arent following their own rules then you have no choice to make a stand surely, stay out there your ultimately accepting it sadly

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

They aren’t racially abusing players in the hope of getting the game abandoned- are you really that naive

Result is irrelevant- strong sanctions are required

The fact you believe they should only walk off if they get awarded the game is unbelievable

Players walk off - UEFA acts and applies bans to countries - the racist bigots don’t win then

 

[NWJocko]

I don't know, obviously.
I just don't think that walking off is the answer.

Just so I'm clear.....

You think players should carry on playing whilst receiving racist abuse? You think that's right, yes?

If so, wow.

 

[Orikoru]

Worst case we play them again behind close doors, that’s still better than allowing a player to be abused.

Well I don't agree at all. If we then lose the game in a replay then the idiot fans have won and got their team a result! So what are they gonna do next time they're allowed in and their team are losing?

Yes, I think they should play on.
No, I don't think receiving racist abuse is right.

Just refuse to play there that will force EUFAs hands to make a decision.

Couldn't agree more, the governing body are an absolute disgrace, all they care about is the £ and their product.

Imagine the level discomfort in Uefa head offices if a team walked off in the Champions League final because of racist abuse!! Not with regards to the welfare of the players but the impact on their profitability

 

[NWJocko]

Yes.

As I said.

Wow.

I’d rather lose in a safe environment than win when players are subjected to abuse.

Obviously this is a first step and UEFA/FIFA are going to have to step the sanctions up, I genuinely don’t believe it would be replayed, but a stand has to be taken.

 

[Dando]

Great substitution to bring on Kane

No, I don't think receiving racist abuse is right.

So the player has to continue kicking a ball about and listen to bigots , fascists and racists shouting abuse at him because of the colour of their skin all because of a game ?! I can’t comprehend that you think that’s the right thing to do

UEFA tonight have failed to follow through on their own protocol - the minute the racist abuse started again second half they should have walked off.

No but I'm sure they do care about the result. Walking off and the match just gets replayed isn't a deterrent. If we walk off we need to know we're backed by UEFA and that Bulgaria are punished, firstly by giving us the result automatically (even if we weren't leading the game), and subsequently by them having to play behind closed doors or even being banned from competing.

It's not that hard to understand so hopefully I don't have to explain to you a third time.

Eh? Kane has been superb all night.
