A mild, late, spineless stand. But a stand. It makes me wonder how much longer this can go on before governments realise people are fed up of this.

I always think that there’s no way these threads will descend into chaos. But we now have people trying to say that “stop killing children” was a bad thing to say.

Nobody has said that. Qatar control UEFA. You think this message was a humanitarian one. A lot of people don't. It's just another part of the game. Suckers fall for it - others don't.

Israel are killing children.

Civilians are being killed as there is a conflict ongoing. The terrorists in gaza are doing nothing to protect their people, quite the opposite.

Well, if you really think that was all their message was I can't help you.

Anywayyy. For the majority though we understand exactly what they were getting at. And even though the hostages aren't 'made of gold' <still can't believe someone said that> this stupid footie club should've also said release the hostages.

UEFA do what their paymasters tell them to.

I think:

Stop Hamas from causing the deaths of children.
**
Hamas must surrender and release the hostages now.

would have been more apt.

Israel are killing children.

Erm should we introduce you to Danial Levy the chairman of Spurs for the last god knows how many years? Noticed how Son only came out with messages to stop the killing after he’d decided to leave the club.

What's the relevance of Levy?

Because the hostages count too. I cannot believe this needs saying.

This football organisation should have recognised all victims, their allegiances are so very obvious. We all know what they think and who they are directing their comments at. Maybe 'hamas stop starving your people' or would that upset the hamas big wigs in Qatar?

If they wanted to appear professional and impartial they should have said 'ceasefire in gaza' or similar. It's all so disingenuous this oh they meant all victims. No, they didn't. They were trying to please salah.

No, I KNOW what that message was about and which billionnaires sponsor the team playing Spurs. Do you?

Why should the hostages be referenced directly? Dear god can’t you let young children being killed have one moment? In the same manner we could say why haven’t they referenced all the people killed that aren’t Hamas. Because despite what Israel says not everyone that lives or breathes in Gaza is Hamas.

It’s because children are being killed in Gaza. Are you really trying to say that the message “stop killing children” is anti semitic?

UEFA trying to say the message wasn't political, while taking Qatar cash. Worst thing is Spurs fanbase is historically Jewish. This was done for a reason and it was naff all to do with humanity.

It’s so awful. I’ve been reading about their tortuous conditions today. Absolutely terrifying and abhorrent. And the ‘gold’ comment has no place when considering their reality due to Hamas.

It doesn't though does it. No mention of hostages.

This seems ro be an appeasement thing for Saleh's comments about a footballer killed in gaza? I may be wrong just seems a funny coincidence.

'No I think the statement ‘stop killing children stop killing civilians is fairly bland and broad and could easily be read as a call to ceasefire to prevent more civilian deaths on both sides.'

A better statement would be 'end the conflict in gaza'. We all know that.

This footie organisation's attempt to please Saleh is nothing to do with deaths on both sides. We'll have a 'free palestine' next.

Salah. Stop using microaggressions.

Same. How do you get to that post.

It hasn't surprised me, really. It's quite often we see those calling for humanity and compassion, to come out with posts like that.
