Steve - we can disagree about the poppy. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I do actually think FIFA's rule is a good rule. I just think that you are massively wrong in your 'politicisation' opinion, just the same as I think that FIFA are massively misapplying something that the rule simply does not cover.

As for other comments made to me on other threads... Meh. It's that sort of mindless nonsense that led me to fall out of the Mudcat habit. At least there's one person here I can have have a vaguely sensible natter with, Even if he is Yaaa... *ahem* Norrverrn! ;-)

Punkie - It's called "I don't do display". I don't wear my team's shirt; I don't fly the flag (England or UK); I don't wear a poppy. I give every year, but I never wear a poppy. I know I gave; I don't feel any need to broadcast it. I know that broadcasting it is also a good thing. It's just not me. I think you'll understand... ;-)
