No, I never said you said that, nor did I mean to imply it. It's absolutely fine by if it's on a voluntary basis, but in reality it isn't always. I also think that, to the extent that it's a measure of support for our troops (as said, it means different things to different people), it is a political symbol, and FIFA are right in the ban (until they approved this new mealy-mouthed compromise).
