I thought it was performance not it's wider scheme of things ? Could someone from a mid table club have the best game ever but nah, it didn't win you anything or save you from relegation.

I seem to remember them saying on the “View From The Lane” podcast that wider context was also taken into account. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 1 hour ago, Rafalove said: Got to say the whole thing seems rather pointless in hindsight. When this started I expected a real push towards certain policies. Blank names on cv’s, more transparency from police, talking heads from the actual organisation doing the rounds and making the case policy x,y,z. instead we got nothing. In the end this whole thing might have been counter Productive and just stirred up division for nothing. Don't think it's anything to do with stirring up division really, it's more that people are far too willing to let these things become cop-out replacements for actual systemic change. No denying it's had a big impact and I have no issue with anyone taking the knee, but I do find it crazy how quickly it's gone from: Colin Kaepernick risking and losing a lot in a stand against racially motivated police brutality, on his own, largely against the establishment, and it being a huge talking point. to It being co-opted by inherently racist companies and an establishment that only want to use it for PR, it being expanded to 'all forms of discrimination', and it now being diluted to the point where it's becoming a solely symbolic gesture that's getting closer and closer to having about as much impact as Kick Racism out of Football. It's an obvious tactic to suppress any chance for actual change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to be one of the most influential. Given the fact that we—thanks to him—managed to lose a game we dominated, was effectively the difference between us and Man Utd winning the league.

Rafalove Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I think it has stirred up division. I mean anytime you bring the topic of race up it’s going too. It was worth doing in the short run though, if actual policies were going to be atleast put forward for discussion. Instead of grabbing their moment and running with it they’ve done nothing. All we’ve done is talk about racism for the sake of it. A few non white people on adverts isn’t going to change the daily reality all that much for the vast majority of people. Having Black Lives Matter written accross our screens every so often isn’t really going to change anyone’s mind. They’ve been invisible and probably someone like Gary Neville has spoken more about this issue than I’ve seen anyone from black lives matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defender gets the ball at right back, dribbles past 9 opposition players, knocks it over the head of the last defender and overheads it past the lkeeper from 30yds.....yeah but it was Southampton against Palace and both teams were safe so didn't count for anything really ?
