| I have to show respect. 13:55 - Sep 13 with 3403 views | ReslovenSwan1 | British football is getting increasing political and forcing fans to "show respect" for all sorts of things. The list is getting bigger and the commitment required is increasing. - i lost £150 going to Birmingham "showing respect" MANDATORY - I have to "show respect" to fallen soldiers every November 11 for about two week. MANDATORY - I have to "show respect" the GSTK. If I did not would most likely be punched. MANDATORY - I have to respect "taking the knee along with a black fist salute". I not know what it is about but I have to show respect apparently. It was originally related to the murder of a criminal junkie somewhere in the USA MANDATORY. I was given abuse by my Welsh nationalist mate at the Millenium stadium "giving respect" when Princess Margaret died. I had no respect for her at all. This is football no place for respect. That is why I am £150 out of pocket. I wear a poppy myself on occasions and donate but it is not mandatory outside football and sport. I could of course chose not to go.

They shouldn't have to "get over it", their postponement is ridiculous. But they are a little bit more important than a football match don't you think? |  | |  |

Without a doubt. We seem to have some common ground. I do respect the right of people to respect. I simply request the number of issues football takes on board to respect are kept to minimum. "Global" issues are normally driven by USA interests and are not UK business. |  |

Postponed operations are an entirely different planet to a bunch of football games, and if the postponement are to do with the funeral (as opposed to shortage of staff, beds etc) its appalling |  | |  |
