THE BIG QUESTION

-

Every day we’ll be asking your opinion on one of Britain’s big talking points. You can have your say and vote at mirror.co.uk England and Wales football captains Harry Kane and Gareth Bale didn’t wear OneLove rainbow armbands in support of LBGTQ+ rights in their opening game after FIFA said they could face a yellow card.

Were they right to ditch the OneLove armbands? YES 34% NO 66%

No. Better the entire team walked out with armbands. What could FIFA do? Send the team home? They’d be applauded on their return. OLDPOACHER Yes. It’s the hypocritic­al FA that’s to blame, not the players. They’ve been making all the defiant noises knowing full well that they can’t stand up to FIFA. SHUMBA78 Yes. Let’s just concentrat­e on the football. If FIFA were really that bothered, they wouldn’t be holding the tournament there. GEOFFN No. How about showing true support instead of backing down to FIFA’s ridiculous demands? BNAR_1 No. The Iranian team showed their true principles and they’ve got more than a yellow card to lose knowing how abhorrent and ruthless their regime is. POSTIE93 Yes. Don’t blame the England and Welsh players for this. They are just there to compete. MACO
