FIFA have rejected the FA appeal for England players to wear a poppy on their shirts on Saturday.
They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old;
Age will not weary them, nor the years contemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

Not being funny but we all know FIFA are at least dodgy, their reasons are to do with the banning of symbols, religious, political and commercial which kind of doesn`t cover commemorative or remembrance, so if England stick 2 fingers up to Septic Bladder then it could be fought in court as to the symbolism meaning. Even if you bought up the arm band being the same reason, yet they allow that, FIFA will win because they have more clout, and they`ll take the piss because of it in the future, so there is no way in hell basically of it happening which is a massive shit in the faces of those who should be remembered! I`ll wear my poppy and I`d fight for the freedom to do so!
