Palace Fans Against Racism

This is fundamentally what all the anti rascist organisations are about. Orwellian Government control.

In the end they are coming for all of us; including the "anti rascists:

I'm betting that the op would agree with it.

The club probably have to do this as part of their duties as determined by the state and football association. Most large companies will probably say the same thing

What exactly is it that you are objecting to? It literally says to use the relevent authorities. You really are a piece of work aren't you?

In my case. The lack of nuance, for one thing.

What on earth has racism got to do with protecting borders from illegal immigrants?
What has it got to do with protecting your own culture and the safety of your family?
Or, identifying and routing out rape gangs?

Answer: Not a damn thing.

Context matters. Maybe a politician might have a genuine reason to say it. What is the purpose of a stop the boats flag at a football match? Obviously to stir division and hate.

division and hate ? what like a division between Brits and foreigners on boats ?

thats like talking about the division between 2 planets on our Solar system.
 
Load of old nonsense.

I thought 'racism' was a crime these days? If anyone is committing a crime from racial abuse to theft at a football match they should be nicked for it. It's a police matter, let them deal with it. Some might disagree with said laws but there's nothing you can do about it unless you're gonna lead a rebellion, so that's what the Police are for. You're a football fan not Batman.

Why therefore would anybody need to campaign or make stickers about a crime unless they were coming to a bleeding football match with political motivation? F**k off. Pure ego driven narcissism. Doesn't matter what political persuasion you are, or what your cause for martyrdom is, it has no relevance to a game of football.

I don't wanna hear anyone's views on refugees, sexuality, race, the economy, the voting system, whether they are for or against anything, or what their opinion on anything outside of football is. I wanna see some good football and a Palace win, always and only. You can have a political clash elsewhere, there's plenty of opportunity, I just want to see a Henderson clean sheet and a genius Wharton/Kamada pass with JPM, JSL, Munoz or Sarr on the end of it to stick it in the net (*provided all mentioned individuals are still playing for Palace at time of reading).

If I wanted to hear anyone's political views, I'd ask them. Sheer arrogance to try and disrupt the experience of a football game for others by promoting your unsolicited opinions, no matter how you dress it up.

Indeed, the stickers and flags are unnecessary. If they want to stick up Reform or Restore flags or stickers at their homes, that's up to them. If people want political displays for Palestine, let them put up a flag at home; in the meantime leave the club out of it. It's only going to alienate one set of fans or another. Keep your political views separate from football.

Agree, all fans, players etc, no matter, political views, colour, religion, ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation should feel welcome to come and join in with supporting the club without fear of feeling intimidated

edited for accuracy. Or at least for how much anybody cares about this daft crusade.

Don't get many goths at Palace though.

As a former goth, I feel a niche coming on...

All we need to find is a dark corner with a depressing view of the game...

Anyone's opinion on anything else is their right to hold but if I have any interest, I will ask.

You want to shout racial abuse or shout about anti-racism, it is you that should be 'kicked out' so those of us there to enjoy the football can.

If you're there exclusively to support the Palace, I'm on your side for the duration of the outing at least, regardless of any other consideration.
