Kako je Engleska prihvatila Matićevo objašnjenje?

Pre šest godina Irac Džejms Meklin odlučio je da na dresu ne želi da nosi značku cveta maka kojom Britanci odaju počast Kraljevskoj armiji i njenim zaslugama za pobedu saveznika u Prvom svetskom ratu.

Meklin je objasnio da nema nameru da odaje počast Kraljevskoj armiji jer su njeni pripadnici početkom sedamdesetih izveli oružani napad na goloruke demonstrante u Deriju.

Šest godina kasnije Nemanja Matić je uzburkao britansku javnost odlukom da skine "popi" sa dresa Mančester junajteda pred duel sa Bornmutom.

Danas je stiglo objašnjenje, Matićeve razloge mogli ste da pročitate OVDE!

Očekivano, na društvenim mrežama se tek sada povela rasprava oko toga da li su Matićevi razlozi legitimni i da li zaslužuje kritike.

Mnogo je onih koji pružaju podršku vezisti Mančester junajteda, ne manjka ni onih drugih koji ga vređaju i tvrde da je njegov postupak nedopustiv, a utisak je da je najviše onih koji britansku javnost prozovaju zbog licemerja.

Verovatno se radi o Ircima, ljudima koji su zgroženi pretnjama i uvredama koje godinama trpi Džejms Meklin zbog svoje odluke da ne nosi "popi". Upravo se ti ljudi pitaju da li postoje dvostruki aršini i da li će sada i Matić biti stavljen a stub srama jer je iskoristio pravo da ne nosi nešto što nije obaveza.

If Matic doesn't wear a poppy that's fine by me. It in no way impacts anyone else's right and ability to pay their respects and it's not in any way deserving of vitriol in my opinion

Does this make nemanja matic a cunt?

If Man Utd’s @NemanjaMatic doesn’t want to wear a #poppy, then that’s fair enough. #Matic has valid reasons, as does @JamesMcC_14. The level of vitriol aimed at these men is ridiculous. In replicating the bigotry it purports to oppose, #poppyfascism is entirely self-defeating

McClean take matic with you and fuck off to Celtic to the only club who will stand for your disgusting behaviour

I am gonna fight anyone who dares to talk shit about Matić or anyone else who refuses to wear a poppy for whatever reason.

Fair play to Matic for not giving into all this poppy bullying - should be a personal choice - the militarisation of sport is massive in the states - dangerous route to go down

Matic telling some home truths in that statement about British war crimes & why he'll never wear a blood stained poppy again. Can he expect weekly racial abuse now? & death threats or are those reserved for Irish people?

Everyone kicking off about McClean not wearing a poppy but Matic didn't either & not heard anyone kicking off about that. Either way it's their decision.

The double standards off the poppy police . Respect Matic , continue to persecute James McClean . Fantastic
