    Hardly any segregation between home and away fans there. Meanwhile at oakwell we have a different postcode for home and the 26 away fans we allow entry to

    Misreporting. Millwall were fighting stewards and police, the line of stewards is going through Millwall fans. The Mirror have dressed it up as Cardiff and Millwall either side of the line, which is false. Bit of clickbait for them though I suppose.

    "Taking the knee has been booed by Millwall supporters in the opening weeks of the season and manager Gary Rowett recently suggested the movement was ‘causing a rift’."

    No sh*t Mr Sherlock

    Taking the knee has been well received at oakwell tbh I was fearing the worst but met by a large applause on both home games.

    Take politics out of football, we get enough preaching on TV and at the cinema.

    You can just imagine the interview for any manager at Millwall: “Right. First things first. This is Millwall. No one likes us and we don’t care. You will need to back the fans actions unconditionally, whatever they say or do”

    Scummiest club and supporters in the league yet they never get any real sanctions.

    There was still hardly any segregation between home and away fans though, I think there were around 30 empty seats between two sets of fans with the worst reputations in English football and a grand total of 12 stewards separating them too. At oakwell on Saturday there will be around 80 seats, the corner of the pitch and a void between stands too.

    Obviously not enough though given the number of racist cretins still polluting the place.

    Amazing, isn't it... if only there was a way to stop the taking of the knee...

    Oh wait. There is. Racists stop being racist. Then we won't need it anymore.

    I'm not sure 'don't be racist' is a hugely political message. But by all means roll that guff out again.

    Because some footballers kneeling ends racism.
    If they go down on both knees does that bring about world peace and end hunger?

    No it doesn't end racism but it also doesn't cause it

    Pros:
    Shows solidarity with black colleagues.
    Sends out a message that racism isn't welcome.
    Is a public reminder to supporters.

    Cons:
    Costs a few seconds.

    Unless you can add some more cons in there it looks massively outweighed by the benefits to me.

    Racism isn't politics. It's a question of basic human decency...or lack of.

    Spot on.

    The trouble broke out in the centre of that lot.
    And as you can see, more than enough segregation - similar amount to the left of the photo as well.
