I have never got the whole diluted message thing, seems a bit of a cop out. Whenever a game is on Sky and players kneel the message couldn't be much more simple when they kneel, "in the fight against racism". It's pretty simple.
But yeah if he doesn't want to kneel, no one is making him
"You see what is happening - I'm not going into my beliefs into what went on in the Capitol building (referencing the attack on America's congress) this week because I've done my fair amount of research into it."
Absolutely no idea what he's on about with that bit though
Fun fact! If all your ideas and knowledge come from consuming the main stream media, you really do not know what is happing in the world. Do some research; consume content from alternative sources do not be fed a lie that comes from the same source #bbc #cnn #sky #inform your self!
No-one mentioned the BBC, CNN or Sky before you did. If you truly believe that these mainstream news sources have a bias to them, sure go ahead and believe it but the point I'm making is don't turn around and tell me that PatriotNews911 on YouTube who says BLM is a communist conspiracy is a more reliable source.
If anyone wants to "do their own research" then they should do it properly - read some peer reviewed papers from experts etc. Unfortunately most people who use the "I do my own research" phrase nowadays have just watched a few videos on YouTube, liked a post on Facebook and believe they're an expert.

He's got very unpopular political beliefs though doesnt he... Certainly wasnt popular with our fanbase with his comments on the subject a lot of the time - On a side note I was very surprised there was no kneeling on Friday night during our game?
Further more the people behind BLM are not even black! It's the same as back in the day when the Nativity play was cancelled because it might offend the Muslims or seeks... The so called minority then say I have no issue with celebrating british customs at school!
Is this the Lyle Taylor thread, or the things-that-never-happened thread?

Sikhs.....and I’ve yet to meet any Sikh that is offended by any British custom or culture, quite the opposite, don’t believe the media hype
Bad spell check! Sorry if I offended any sikh people. Your point is exactly my point.
It really isn’t, the media hype any sniff of a story to suit an agenda, left & right. No nativities have been banned because any Muslim or Sikh found it offensive, I find chucking gay people off of high buildings and forced marriage of children offensive, but it’s not going to stop certain crackpots doing it anytime soon

Yes you are right but they have been banned in the past especially at Stillness primary school - Brockley as far back as 1986! And of course nobody from the Muslim or any other community has asked for this!
As a black man I find the BLM movement offensive as it seems Lyle does too. So many things could make a change in the world but going down on one knee before a game is not one of them.
It's funny how people were happy to continue with the thread when things were not appearing to go so well but now that Lyle has scored a few goals and the Forest fans are warming to him, the thread should be closed.
Been saying it for a while mate. Its a bit sad this thread

I was gonna say someone be along in a minute to tell us we are all ‘whitesplaining’ but you’ve put that to bed 😂.

There are loads of threads I find uninteresting on here but I simply ignore them.
Because a mate text me a pic or tweet from lyle talking about not taking the knee etc saw lots of fresh posts and thought there might actually be interesting discussion.
If everyone is moaning about him scoring or revelling that he's not scoring i personally find that a bit sad. Time to move on
Fun fact! Richard Rufus went to Stillness, played football with him during lunch break and he taught me how to break dance too! He was also a face at the Brockley BMX/Skate park!

OK. I didn't know that. Can you do me a favour and point out where that's reported? I would love to look into that in greater detail. Because they would have a lot of questions to answer. No doubt they've been asked already, so I would like to see their answers.
It's interesting, because the current curriculum at Stillness Primary School includes:
The Bible
Local Christian places of worship
Christian celebrations
Leading a Christian Life
'Jesus Human and Divine'
The journey of Life and Death Christianity
Christians respond to personal and social issues, locally and globally, in a number of ways and can draw inspiration from other Christians, e.g. Martin Luther King.
Sermon on the Mount
How Christmas is celebrated by Christians in other countries focussing on the central shared celebration of the birth of Jesus
A source of Christian belief and teaching - some Christians read the Bible every day and find it helpful for their everyday lives.
The Old and New Testaments include many books with different genres; these include history, law and songs: Joseph, Psalm 23, and Isaiah’s Prophecy.
The gospel stories tell about events in Jesus’ life.
Jesus’ teaching about the Kingdom of God in parables: The Lost Sheep
Ten Commandments
Special places for Christians
Belonging to a group and sharing activities with others is
important and meaningful
Worship includes the use of stillness and silence for
reflection
Reasons why people pray
The Lord’s Prayer
The Bible (a source of Christian belief and teaching)
used in services
Jesus Human and Divine
God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit
Christmas – Jesus’ birth
Choosing 12 disciples AND friends
Jesus’ temptations
Jesus’ baptism
Miracles and acts of healing e.g. ‘Stilling the storm’, ‘The four friends’ or ‘Healing a leper’
Easter - Jesus’ death, resurrection and afterwards
Leading a Christian Life
Commitment, belonging and belief in the special presence of God during significant life events Example of at least one person and one charitable organisation that exemplifies Christianity in action
Encounter with one local Christian to share how their life is led by faith
Christian communities in Lewisham
and a visit to a church or cathedral
And they held a fantastic Christmas jumper day last month
Are you really sure that they 'banned' the Nativity play because it 'offended' Muslims? If so, the Muslims must be fucking furious with what it's been replaced with.

So why ask the question in the first place? Have first hand experience and told as much. Wear your mask, go down on one knee and make the world a better place!
I have never got the whole diluted message thing, seems a bit of a cop out. Whenever a game is on Sky and players kneel the message couldn't be much more simple when they kneel, "in the fight against racism". It's pretty simple.
But yeah if he doesn't want to kneel, no one is making him
"You see what is happening - I'm not going into my beliefs into what went on in the Capitol building (referencing the attack on America's congress) this week because I've done my fair amount of research into it."
Absolutely no idea what he's on about with that bit though
Fun fact! If all your ideas and knowledge come from consuming the main stream media, you really do not know what is happing in the world. Do some research; consume content from alternative sources do not be fed a lie that comes from the same source #bbc #cnn #sky #inform your self!
Come on then, for a laugh....what ‘alternate sources’?
Comments
If anyone wants to "do their own research" then they should do it properly - read some peer reviewed papers from experts etc. Unfortunately most people who use the "I do my own research" phrase nowadays have just watched a few videos on YouTube, liked a post on Facebook and believe they're an expert.
Appreciate his approach and reasoning.
