If you want to protest, the optimum time to do so is when the thing you’re protesting against is in the brightest spotlight. The Premier League could have negated the opportunity by not suggesting the anthem was played, and Liverpool FC could have avoided the controversy by not playing it. But neither took that step so the fans who booed were fully justified in taking advantage of the moment. To do otherwise would be to tacitly approve of an institution they do not support.

As an American (and Nigerian), I had no idea why the Liverpool fans were booing. I have since read up on the history of the relationship between the city of Liverpool and the conservative government which they feel goes hand-in-hand with the monarchy. Obviously, I can't feel as they do towards the crown because I am not of the city, but I'm a big believer in the freedom to express your viewpoints. If you think people should be forced (the keyword here is forced) to stand for or sing the national anthem, perhaps an autocratic government is more your cup of tea.

Simon talks a lot of sense and discusses the football business with unrivalled insight in punditry, but in this instance he is completely out of touch and bordering on advocating censorship: people are entitled say what they want, when they want, the consequences of which are determined by the society they live in, which right now (for the moment at least) is a relatively free society and one where booing national 'anthem' is not illegal. So WHAT'S THE PROBLEM? It's pitiful to see someone so assured and forthright, who clearly is no mug, descend to the level of the boot-licking monarchist. Their time is not long, mate.

Fully support the Liverpool fans. All the right wingers who always bang on about freedom of speech are horrified, but the point of freedom of speech is to express your opinion. You can't try to shut people down just because you disagree with them. I think the fact that we have two unelected oligarch heads of state (Charles and Sunak) is something worth protesting.

A political opinion, respect/appreciation for the monarchy, was imposed onto a huge number of people who are not monarchists. Of course they should boo. And it's not a small minority anymore; the polls highlight as much. Those appreciating the coronation can do so without the national anthem being played at a football stadium.

Trying to oust Liverpool fans of other faiths and political views is what was and is behind the disrespect shown to our monarchy, Nothing else,

One day in the future people will look back and acknowledge Liverpool fans for being completely correct and justified, the same goes for the anti-monarchists arrested for voicing their opinions. The coronation isn’t a just a party, it is fundamentally political, and plays an ideological role in society. I was there and started off booing and finished chanting the name of my club and city. And it made me feel incredibly proud. Loyalty to the people, not the state. Our national anthem doesn’t even mention the name of our country or anything to do with it. Also Keown’s a f*cking idiot. “Why don’t you protest in silence”. No wonder the country’s a mess

The point you're missing Simon is that this isn't "Liverpool football club" taking a view point, it is the individuals who happen to support LFC expressing their individual view on a subject. This "protest" had nothing to do with Liverpool football club and everything to do with an individuals right to expression. Of course everyone is entitled to an opinion and as you rightly say, other are then allowed to express their opinion on that. This is how discussion works. It is ok to disagree.

Yes spot on sir

Regarding Simon's professed opinion that the protesting fans should have kept their opinions to themselves, and "not gone to the party". Firstly, the fans didn't go to a; 'Celebration of The Coronation of King Charles the Third party' intent on ruining the event; rather they attended a specific, regularly occurring event unrelated to The Coronation which, for many of them, is nothing short of a quasi-religious communion, in the same way they always have done. Discovering that, upon this occasion, their beloved Anfield was to be exploited by The Establishment (and it can certainly be argued that there are precious few groups of people more inherently 'Establishment' than The Royal Family) - a group of organisations, and individuals held responsible by some on Merseyside (and not without justification) for high-level corruption; social and economic decline of such severity as to cause widespread poverty, as well as for the political abandonment of the area, and of generations of its people - the fans were, quite understandably in my opinion, minded to protest. And, given the depth of anti-establishment sentiment within the community, I would argue that the actions taken by the Liverpool fans (i.e, a minute or two of booing The National Anthem) we're in fact rather measured when compared with another recent fan-led protest, i.e the invasion of Old Trafford by Manchester United fans on May the 2nd 2021, which resulted in the abandonment of the Premier League match scheduled to be played that day; ironically, between Manchester United and Liverpool... Secondly, regarding Simon's (and a considerable amount of other's) point that this was neither the time, nor place for protest; surely this is diametrically opposed to fact. The Anfield Faithful were simply using the occasion to reiterate their widely known opposition to, and distrust of elements of the aforementioned 'Establishment, at a time and place guaranteed to gain a huge audience, due to Sky Sports' as well as national news outlets' coverage. I feel this was acceptable as the protest was only made in response to the playing of The National Anthem. In other words, the fans didn't boo the anthem as a means to gain publicity for an unrelated grievance. I began this rather overly long rant by suggesting that perhaps Simon was being a little disingenuous in expressing his opinion that the Liverpool fans who booed The National Anthem were in the wrong. I suspect that Simon is well aware of all the points I've covered and would, in private, admit the Liverpool fans have a genuine grievance, even if, politically speaking they're of different stripes. Also, given his history (and, for all I know, current involvement) in the business world, I would suggest he's fully cognisant of the importance of being able to spot an opportunity to slip in an effective advert for a product, a service, or (as on this occasion) a cause. What I'm getting at is that I suspect, on the sly, Simon's genuine opinion, as opposed to the Talk Sport 'party line' he so effortlessly tows, is that The Liverpool fans acted creditably; merely (quite literally) voicing an opinion and causing no disruption, as well as intelligently; Publicising perceived injustices. On the other hand, I might just have wasted half an hour of my life writing a lot of drivel...

its a footie match why do we have to the national anthem on people go there to see footie period nowt else

Not everyone is a royalist, booing demonstrates their displeasure at this fantastically opulent show of wealth during a time when people can barely afford to turn the lights on
