Harry Kane vs Islam

Harry Kane is looking to go head-to-head with the Qataris later today after the One Love armband business blew up yesterday, and it was confirmed that the host state was disinterested in any statements of dissent from visiting nations.

I take a view that when in Rome… and hope that Kane is yellow-carded before a ball is kicked for dissent. FIFA regulations don’t permit any such nonsense. As a countermeasure, Wokegate has confirmed that his boys will kneel. Again.

This act is in solidarity with the murder of the serial offending, fentanyl-pumped George Floyd, and the corrupt Marxist loons that were so eagerly embraced by do-gooders after the man’s death. This was, of course until daylight dawned, and eventually Kick It Out was briefly reinstated by broadcasters, before a final switch to the now occasional No To Racism tag-line.

It’s not so much a brave man who takes on the moral police in these places, and whilst I generally wish Kane no malice, this is foolhardy, and I don’t think that the boy understands the potential gravity of his situation.

There is unrest in Iran as witnessed by 15,000 souls that have been recently arrested.

That Muslim state has considerable form in this space and in 1988 at least, maybe more than 5,000 prisoners were executed. The sword of Islam is not to be trifled with.

Qatar only a few days ago cancelled a deal to widely sell beer, a deal worth tens of millions. The values and customs of foreign lands must be respected.

I’d be looking to get back on the camel I rode in on and take my fight to a more beatable foe.

The whole woke agenda for this World Cup is like a scene out of Blackadder......the ruling elite, safe in their bunkers giving Captain Kane a great opportunity to go over the top and really make a difference!

The footballing authorities - all of them - have had this on the desk for years; worker deaths and conditions and civil rights issues have not crept up over-night. Yet when asked to account for their lack of action or moral indecisiveness they have not threatened to boycott, withdraw their national teams, group together with like-minded nations to "force" accountability from Qatari elites. No, they've done bugger-all and in many instances have not even had the good grace to comment - effectively condoning it.

Qatar has its right as a nation to determine its own laws and how it runs its affairs (at least till the Americans see something they might want). But the football authorities do not have to endorse those rights by giving them hosting of a World Cup, indeed they are charged with ensuring that such hosting rights are non-controversial. But Blatter, Platini and now Infantino Rosso (is that child with red hair?) seem to believe their own hype as some sort of international ambassadors......world class w*nkers more like!

But the FA and similar bodies in each footballing nation would not say Nein, Non, or just No! Instead they took the money and then when some sacrifice is required they send out clean-cut Captain Kane to face the machine guns all on his own whilst Blackadder sneaks off to deposit their ill gottens....
