That’ll not stop them. Hope England and the US thrash Iran too. Their opponents have been asked to do the ‘cutting hair ‘ gesture to support the women in Iran when they score a goal. | | | |

Only chance Qatar have is if Ecuador get a couple of players sent off, don't write it off. | | | |

Brilliant Will be a bigger statement now that it is not every game. Solidarity for the women in Iran. Hope Wales follow suit | | | |
Qatar 2022 : The World Cup Thread UPDATED on 18:02 - Nov 20 with 1556 views | cockett_jack | So the commentators mentioned a lot of the locals leaving in the final mins. Ok the result is done but you can’t be bothered to stay a few minutes longer to applaud your team etc after hosting a historic opening game for your country and people, whilst your country is being slated for all the controversy associated? What a load of rubbish, absolute joke the World Cup is there | | | |

Brilliant? Really? Wouldn’t it have been a better statement not to play there and not lend their name and likeness to promoting and funding Qatar? Or did the plight of the equality in Qatar come a very distant second to them wanting to play a game of kicking a bit of leather about in exchange for glory and cash? The fact they have the audacity to make such a statement is ludicrous. All their virtue signalling went out the window the second they stepped on the plane, no point in pretending otherwise. It’s just a charade. | |

Can’t argue with that, had the major teams said ‘no’ 10 years ago, or whoever it was announced they could’ve changed it. Now they’re here, this is the only option. But, yes, of course you’re right, | | | |

They could still withdraw if they felt strongly enough about the issues. Rosa Parks did not decide to give up her seat because she was already on the bus. | |

They’re probably contractually obliged now. They’d probably be sued and bankrupted if they pulled out now | | | |
Qatar 2022 : The World Cup Thread UPDATED on 00:54 - Nov 21 with 1232 views | Robbie | Had a passing interest in the BBC coverage of the opening ceremony and match , awful game made worse by presenters , Ashley Williams included , not his fault though , trying to be so positive over an event they cannot obviously , be seen as negative broadcasters . There was a female pundit talking football at half time , tick box exercise for diversity by the Beeb as is the norm . Regarding treatment of women , maybe she should have thought again over her appointment doing that role , that would be a good stance to take , or maybe she is saying I am a Coloured Woman footballer , good on her . Jury is out on this tournament . | | | |

This kneeling and virtue lark does far more harm to society than it does good. The people it creates and breeds are utterly intolerable. It is pushing this dishonest and shallow narrative that has infested the west, which is now failing to address any issues at all and entirely focussed on personal image and servicing that instead. Even BLM themselves have been exposed as spending their donation money on houses, lavish parties and funding fringe and extreme political movements. They don’t help anyone that they fraudulently use as the front/bait to get the donations. It also played a part politically which led to one of the most disastrous elections in modern history which was a key catalyst to the world being in one of the most crippling financial predicaments that many have ever experienced. Could anyone tell me anything good that has come from this kneeling lark, it seems to have created more division than togetherness which must be one of the most anti-symbolic things to have ever been done. Completely doing the opposite of what it claims to want to do. Most people when asked do the easy cop out and say “raising awareness” - as if anyone wasn’t aware previously, it does nothing of the sort in reality. I seem to notice people have been slowly but surely replacing their Ukraine flags/profile pics in the hope that nobody notices. Virtue only has a shelf life for so long before people get bored. I’m waiting for the next one to make an appearance and will be the fresh new thing that’s all the rage. It’s all incredibly nauseating. Especially from a team that is choosing to line the pockets of Qatar and promote it as a major global event host. It’s not something that has only just been discovered, Qatar and the inner workings of the country have been well known for decades and they went there in full knowledge of this and accepting that it wasn’t important enough to make an actual meaningful stand. The knee is simply a free pass to be able to do whatever you like. As long as your knee touches the grass for a few seconds before the match and the cameras are pointing at you, then all is forgiven. It’s like they think we are stupid, although I’m sure many will be lapping it up and falling for this corporate driven nonsense. Genuinely vomit inducing. [Post edited 21 Nov 2022 7:46]

That may well be the case; money over principles, in which case they should just get on with the football and stop the pretence. | |

Nothing stopping the players withdrawing, you aren’t contractually obliged to play for your country in any tournament. They can do as they please. Yet knowing that… and knowing we all know that… they wear a colourful armband instead and hope we all comment on how great it is. So brave and wonderful. | |
