Thai Military Support

[MattFox]

Surely there was no need whatsoever for this in the ground today

Next Sunday will be interesting given it’s another Thai side

What happened? 

[Sly]

Politics has no place in football, or any sport for that matter.

[Nolucklcfc]

It’s annoying how much they try and shove Thailand down our throats.

What's he done now?

LCFC have apparently approved a planned protest banner by the Sheff Wed fans, so maybe supporting that nutter is a bridge too far even for us

I read in the match thread that there had been a message on the screens regarding Thailand, not an ad like the tourism ones, more of a statement of support (I think)

[TonyN11]

Oh, as opposed to Cambodia

Correct. Like ‘Truth From Thailand’ or something… I didn’t pay much attention.

Have they actually? Can’t see that TBH considering our own fans have to give 5 years prior notice, have 75 internal meetings and have to get approval for breathing in and then out again before anything’s even looked at.

 

Can of worms for the FEF if so.

Watching YouTube could see it on the advertising boards around the pitch too.

[Craig]

It was also going the whole way round the ground on the sponsor board at times too

[Craig]

I did find it incredibly ironic given how difficult it is for us to get the truth from Thailand...

Says it's been organised in discussion with the club. I don't think they'd be able to sneak in a massive banner otherwise

[SemperEadem]

“Boost morale among frontline Thai soldiers”.

[ealingfox]

Cynical habitual liars calling for the truth is it

[Wymsey]

It doesn't sound dodgy at all..

Just shouldn't be there should it.

Definitely.

Politics and sports shouldn't mix.

[CosbehFox]

It’s political messaging and not even a grey one at that. If they do it next week, I don’t think the EFL will be happy or their sponsors anyway 

[fox_favourite]

A new shirt sponsor? 

[westernpark]

A new low for the club.

[UniFox21]

Can't hand out mental health leaflets but can promote Thai military action. Nice
