Asking England fans what they think of FIFA's LGBT armband U-turn
After the FA announced that Harry Kane wouldn't wear a OneLove armband in Qatar as a show of solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community, we went to ask England fans what they thought of the move.

So are the travelling fans and footballers who want human rights in Qatar also hypocrites for playing in the games? If only life were that simple in violently structured societies .
England needs to wear an armband against the Balfour declaration. Clean up your own mess first.
The corruption of FIFA knows no bounds. Perhaps an armband CLEAN UP FIFA would be most appropriate.
Thank you Qatar ❤️❤️❤️

You wouldn't day in the 1940s respect the laws of Nazi Germany. That may be an extreme example but you can't just respect laws because a country made them. You look at them as they are, good or evil.
Seems that this reporter is trying too hard to *FORCE* people to condemn Qatar's laws. He's not neutral. When someone says he's against the laws, he makes no further questions. When someone says he accepts the laws even though not agreeing with them, he keeps asking questions trying to convince that person to condemn the laws, making the interviewed feel uncomfortable. This reporter's lack of neutrality is very clear and it seems he simply cannot accept that not everyone thinks the way he does. Do a better job next time 🤝

The English talk about human rights. Is this a joke?
How about focusing on the ball on the pitch instead of whining you can't go after others balls.
As far as I am aware Qatar has made their stance very clear from day one. I’m sure some of these western countries had their reservations but why was it not challenged back then. Anyways they’re hosting the World Cup so just respect their laws and stop imposing your values on them. Kick back, support your country and watch the games.
I think many of these people have missed the point. Any protest regarding Qatar isn't about the country itself, there are multiple countries that have these laws and cultures, which we can do little about. It's that international sport competitions cannot be held in counties which have these extreme laws in place. That's the protest, otherwise FIFA and alike will do it again and again. It's not too late to say anything, this event needs to be a pain in the arse for FIFA so not to try it again.

You couldn't come up with a more revealing contrast of moral courage and integrity than between the actions of the Iranian and English football teams. The Iranians made a protest against something in their own country for which they may pay a high personal cost. The English team tried to make a protest, that presented no risk to their safety, about something in another country (which they knowingly travelled to in order to take part) then withdrew the protest immediately when they thought their participation and careers may be affected.

Ya but what if another player gets red card and the captain gets another yellow then sent off, that means you’re going to play with 9 players and don’t forget they’ll do everything to give another yellow card to the captain. If he gets sent off and then the second captain is gonna get a yellow card as well. Good idea but it’s risky though and Qatar did great job with that 👏
Most brits don't give a shit about this.
If any player actually felt strongly about this, why would they not say to the coach, "Don't consider me for selection. I don't agree with us going and I will take the person consequences of sitting this one out." Anything else is just vapid, virtue signalling

Tbh many england fans have heaped praise on the warmth, no alcohol at matches has kept the violence to a minimal level? I think its been a very successful world cup!
I think the organisers have scored an own goal. It can now become a waiting game, progressing through the group stages, with the inevitable climb in global audience. An appearance will be made, when the punishment will have much less of an effect over the message.

If they had any sense, they would rotate who the captain is so a ban from the yellow cards wouldn’t come into place. An armband doesn’t define leadership, stick an armband on Jacob Rees Mogg, it doesn’t make him someone you want to follow.
I think principles are only principles when they're challenged. Taking the knee and wearing armbands are just a waste of time if the threat of a yellow card can derail everything. They need to stop with the political shit in our sports and entertainment. Because most of it's coming from a false place.

Or Maybe the West can hold such discussion of understanding on the subject. I'm a Muslim and I understand it boils down to epistemology. Not something I can easily write about on this comment.

The problem is these discussions will never really go anywhere because certain knowledge Muslims will hold and how this shapes them not favouring LGBT won’t be the same as Westerners. And vice versa. You sound like an educated person but not everyone is that way. There are Muslims that will simply understand it as haram and that’s enough. So when someone like myself doesn’t hold haram as something to morally follow it becomes meaningless.

Who honestly thinks that armbands will make even the tiniest bit of a difference to the Qatari government's stance on homosexuality? As a Westerner who has lived in the Middle East for decades, I feel certain that armbands will change nothing. Nothing. You might as well ask the sun to rise in the west. Islam will not be dictated to, nor will be threatened by armbands. I imagine too that the seeming willingness of certain parts of the Christian church to adapt basic tenets of the religion to fit in with current thinking only strengthens the Muslim government's resolve to stick to its core beliefs.
In 1966 when the UK hosted the world cup, homosexuality was illegal and unacceptable, same as it is today in Qatar.

Which is that football is for everyone regardless of race, gender, religion, sexuality etc. By all the countries backing out last minute over the fear of a yellow card it shows that all their support is just virtue signalling, they don't have the balls to put anything on the line for it. The same applies for all the companies that continue to sponsor this world cup and the celebrities that continue to be ambassadors for it. They don't care about the causes they supposedly fight for as long as they are getting a hefty paycheck and good media coverage.

Actually, you will find that a good proportion of the countries that are taking part in the world cup do not accept homosexuality and the practice is illegal. It is mostly arrogant Western countries led by the USA and UK, as usual, that are trying to force their values upon everyone else. If the west wants the men in their countries to incline towards homosexuality then that's up to them, but why should they try to force their values onto a population that disagrees with such a practice. It just reeks of arrogance and a superiority complex. You can see that the colonial mindset still lingers, even in the latter generations.

A few days ago I was driving past FIFA HQ in nyon on lake Geneva and I said to my friend in the car, how can such a beautiful place to be home to such a corrupt and disgusting institution.
Plenty virtue signal, until it costs them something...! Football had an opportunity to make a statement, outside their comfort zone, world cup is only there to top up Sepp Blatter's bank balance. Thousand dead for these stadiums, but taking a yellow, too much to bere. They should all have wore armband, and in second game too, see if they'd send the whole team off.? Then the Welsh and USA could follow.. they'd soon change their minds
If people have a problem with Qatar than how the hell any country is going to host the World Cup if Only 25 percent of all the countries in the world fully legalized lgbt? That means countries we don’t agree with or have different culture than we do will not even bother to host. I mean if you think about, Mexico will hold the World Cup next, and today FIFA is being asked by some European countries to investigate Mexican fans for making homophobic comments in Qatar. It seems to me This isn’t a Qatar problem. Instead it is a western society problem using the World Cup as a platform to push their policies and culture on other nations with their former colonies being at the forefront.

Either you stand by your principles, or you don't. Kane getting the yellow cards would have highlighted the issues - would a Quatar victory really be something to be proud of for the UK? It's not just about the banning of homosexuality - utterly disgusting in itself - but the 6,500 stadium migrant workers that literally worked themselves to death. How is that not slavery?

English talking about another country's corruption while their country is corrupt to the bone. Fix your own corruption first then start judging others you hypocrits

you can talk about and criticise both
Been to world cup,amazing experience. In qatar lgbtq is illegal. If you go to a country respect the laws.
If you don't like something ignore it! Why do people have to make so many issues? Be sensible respect others and their culture and country rules.
The country that should be making accommodations is Qatar, they have been honoured out of all proportion with their standing in the World game, they've been given enough, FIFA should have made it clear that no-one would restrict defence of human rights issues. They shouldn't be the ones making demands, FIFA fucked up

I fully expect FIFA to be corrupt, and to put money above all else. I expect the morally bankrupt likes of Beckham to sell his soul for a few quid, but it’s heartbreaking that regular people can shrug off human rights for a game.
The fa was happy to go to Qatar and take the money for being there as were the player and the tv companies who are covering it if they wanted to make a stand then they should of stayed in the uk they all new what Qatar stance was and have done for a long time
I understand people saying respect the country's values but the thing is Qatar have a poor human rights record they may be rich and have all the money but it doesn't matter how much money you have you can't go round England chopping people's arms off that's what I don't like about Islamic law they are strict and hurt people for the most lightest offence they commit I have friends who are Muslims in the UK and they don't get treated like that treat everyone regardless of sexuality or orentation with equal respect.

Dunno about asking England fans anything to be honest. Not exactly the countries brains are they?
All about money and power not about football
why not forfeit the world cup?!
I’ve boycotted England sick and tired of politics in football and all this taking the knee crap. I’m out
why are the British so obsessed with 2 guys getting it on anyway?
Just don't push your lgbt agendas to the world. We arab countries don't agree with those views and we made ourselves very clear about it. The least you should do is respect our laws and keep your ideas to yourselves
Pretty shallow of the England team,then they take the Knee.Hypercritical comes to mind.
The lad at 4min made total sense
Homosexuality was illegal in England in 1966 when England hosted the World Cup. So should England be handing back the Jules Rimet trophy?
The question for LGBTs : If a gay or transgender consider himself to be a woman ; can women plays football in the world cup with man ? Just a question...
