Disgusted

I want to know why Sunderland FC have decided not to wear poppies today. How many service personel have to die before they think it's a worthwhile cause to support.

Re: Disgusted

Some teams wear them at the nearest home game to the 11th. They wore them last week against Stoke. I think Watford may have done the same because somebody commented they didn't wear their's yesterday

Re: Disgusted

Sunderland didn't wear them today. They didn't play yesterday, so, therefore only 19 teams wore them.

Re: Disgusted

I'm nearly sure I read somewhere that these shirts were only worn once and afterwards auctioned, with the proceeds going to armed forces charities
