    So the one love wrist bands were banned due to threats from the governing bodies
    Well one way to bring attention to the cause and to register the feelings of the players by sending out a message of support to the LBGTcommunity ... would be for the following players to stand in the centre circle whilst their team mates applaud them
    Luke Shaw Jude Bellingham Jack Grealish Trent Alexander Arnold....simple but effective....subliminal message every time

    Im guessing to spell out LGBT with the start of their sir names? Bellingham and Grealish were stood in the wrong place though :)

    Maybe they are gay. Not that it would matter.

    Any gesture/act would be subject to punishment by FIFA. The Belgians have been told they can't have the word "love" on the inside of their collars. I'd hope that perhaps there's a chance that the winning captain would refuse to accept the trophy from Infantino and whichever Qatari representative turns up, but I can't seeit happening

    The Qataris won't listen anyway, and we can't really pretend to be much better than them, 50% of British Mulsims think homosexuality should be illegal. I don't think Harry Kane's armband is going to sway their thinking. It's nice to display solidarity, and hopefully those marginalised folk in this country who need the support can see the strength of public sentiment from most people here.

    How great would it be if England won the cup (or even when beaten) they change into rainbow shirts at end.

    Wouldn’t know about others but Grealish love life has been pretty public with girls involved so I’d discounted that TBH.
