Could be the National Anthem?

Toadinthehole I’m assuming the OP means taking the knee for Black Lives Matter, football still allowed during lockdown, hurray in this house!

Spitting is totally unnecessary and yes, a disgusting habit. It's about time they banned it.

Sorry...as regards the spitting, apart from it being disgusting at any time, I’ve no idea?

How funny. My husband and I have literally just been talking about football. Wondering if it will stop. Goodness knows why we got on to that, we both hate it. I’m chomping at the bit wanting to know....what happens at the beginning of a match?

having watched some football yesterday and today, I do not watch the beginnings of matches, wont explain why it case it causes offence, but just wondered, surely players are not allowed to spit, especially at the moment when we are all trying to be so careful, or are they exempt
