Foootball boycott of social media!

What sacrifice footballers are making in protest at racist
comments on social media about footballers!
They say they will boycott social media platforms for 24hrs
in protest!
What difference do they beleive this will make.
IMO l dont think they will be able to last 24hrs without using
their connection to life!, They wont be able to resist projecting
their image onto the world stage.
If they could keep out of sight for at least a year l would
have more sympathy for them!
Any comments?
Regards Donkeyman!

They should also get rid of those cliche ridden, monosyllabic post match player interviews, which are tedious beyond belief. I await that fateful day, when one of them says something sensible.

Off to football this afternoon but proper football, non league , local. Fans mix and players give there all.

What a brilliant suggestion Floydy. Perhaps that might just concentrate the minds of those in influential positions, both players and management, within that sport to the fact that football needs spectators. These people ignore them at their peril!

Hi

I don't do football but do have a Facebook Account.

I have no friends, no information on it, just use it for buying and selling
