Here's something everyone from England can support Scotland on: poppy fine 21:30 - Feb 9 with 1275 views

Whilst I can see FIFA's technical point I would have thought they could have found a way to disregard any political or religious element to wearing poppies on football shirts, not sure if the appeal will be successful:

The rule, which all of the British FAs had a vote on, is fairly clear and I don't know why we think that we should be above it.

Yes, it's a clear rule which exists to stop much more unpalatable emblems being worn: can you imagine the sloganeering in any future Croatia v Serbia match if Scotland wins this.

Wear the Poppy on principle, pay the fine because it provides a greater safeguard. Move on.

I'm getting more and more uneasy about ever-increasing 'poppy fascism', which leads first to the ridiculous

This with a bit of Rule Britannia added on the end.
