Perhaps the above shows why they don't want to get involved in this.

Make your mind up, I thought you disliked political gestures?
Maybe they don't want to be seen to be taking sides.

Pay at the gate.
It's a bit late for that now.
You can't pick & choose which political cause to support.
You either support them all or none at all.
Not often i agree with Harwich, but he's dead right.
Keep politics out of sport.

Why can't you? Maybe they don't support any particular side. Taking a stance (knee) against racism is different to choosing who to support in a war.

You don’t half talk shite.
Taking a knee started back in 2016 as a protest about racial inequality and police brutality against black folk.(and was condemned at the time)
It’s 100% political.
Football had already started with its none political campaign of “kick racism out of football” which every decent football supporter could get behind and support.
Don’t need to see footballers cucking themselves, unless it floats your boat.

Historically that's why it started, but England and Premier League footballers didn't do it for that reasonYou don’t half talk shite.

"England manager Gareth Southgate has said the England team's actions were not in support of the Black Lives Matter organisation. In June 2021 he said: "We have got a situation where some people seem to think it is a political stand that they don't agree with. That is not the reason the players are doing it. We are supporting each other."

Guys should post nonstop about politics and racism.
Guys shouldn't disappear when the reality of politics and racism gets uncomfortable for them.
Disappearing would merely make it convenient for some around here.
Nice try at switching the subject too.

Southgate should take charge of negotiations in the Middle East they'd be so bored they'd forget about fighting each.
