There will be a free Yellow and Blue Scarf for every fan going to Villa tomorrow. They will be left on our seats, as a mark of Solidarity with Ukraine.
Not sure if this will be a 'Saints Away Scarf' or just a Yellow and Blue one, but a nice gesture all the same in these troubled times.
Anyone still got their free 'We March On' or 'EFL Cup Final' scarves, or perhaps their hats from Huddersfield away ? |  |

Disgraceful and taacky, people being murdered in a war and the club want fans to wave flags, what an insult. |  | | |

Honestly don't see what this achieves, if the club want to do something take the money they spent on flags and donate to care parcels for Ukraine or some other way.
A bunch of Saints fans waving a yellow and blue scarf at a football game is meaningless look at me behaviour and only helps the club and fans feel better about themselves. |  | | |

From a purely football point of view, every time we do such gestures.....
We lose.
Eg all the players wearing J Rod t shirts after his injury.
We then lose to relegated cardiff. | | | |

It’s not look at me behaviour it’s showing Ukrainians we give a sh!t and hopefully in Russia the public will see it and think ooh we are dirty fookers. I know you need to be a forum tough guy but I believe it will help |  |

Couldn’t agree more. The Ukraine’s don’t want empty gestures they want soldiers from nato. |  |

Looks like the gesture could be quite costly for the PL from a China perspective. Just goes to show that what we consider little or pointless has a been impact elsewhere.

Absolutely agree. This is all about showing how much we care. Which achieves nothing at all | |

I don't need to be a "forum tough guy" i'm just utterly realistic that firstly Russia has banned all coverage of anything that is pro Ukraine and closed down nearly all external media, including social media, so there's very little chance it'll be seen there.
Secondly if we're going to do something i'd rather the club saved that money and donate care parcels to the Ukarine instead, something that makes a tangible difference to people there.
And thirdly I think the viewing figures, even if it got shown, for a midtable english football game between two sides with no Russian or Ukrainian players involved isn't exactly going to be so high it makes the people of Russia think "f*ck it's us who are the bad guys!"
So the only reason i can see that's left is that we're doing it so we feel good about ourselves. | | | |

Ukraine care little if you or I give a shit. They do not want us to waves flags, so we feel better about ourselves,
What they clearly want, is to drag the West into a war with Russia. Are you ready for that?

Next week, can we have Red scarves in support of all the Russian citizens who oppose Putin and war and feel vilified by the actions of leaders they do not support?
Football used to be about a couple of hours of escapism on a Saturday afternoon and now its a litany of pointless virtue signalling that achieves nothing.
If we care about issues individually I am sure we are capable of making donations and/or doing something that could make a difference without the help of football. Can we go back to being just a game please? | |

Correct Jelly, Ive just seen everyone at Fulham clapping hands !!! What why ? People being blown up on both sides and 'they' want football fans to clap. Nothing more should be happening than pointing everyone towards the DEC charity donation page. | | | |

I suppose the people who oppose Sport being used to punish Russia also thought that South Africa should of been allowed to play World Sport during Apartheid ? | |

I don't think anyone opposes sport being used to punish Russia, i'd imagine most people think FIFA/UEFA bottled their original stance and fully support boycotts of Russia (like the one you mention of apartheid that did work).
But that's not the same as people waving blue and yellow scarfs at a game. Just give the money to people who are doing work for folk on the ground | | | |

What happened at football stadiums when then what going on ? Nothing
Clapping for ukrainians and russians being blown up is a total insult.
Modern football....get on your knee to be submissive for racism and then clap your hands for a war. Farce | | | |

Meanwhile Chelsea w@nkers sing songs praising Putins pal Abramovic whilst Johnson and his cronies let him off scott free. The UK Govts failure to go after the Russian oligarchs is an utter disgrace. The Tories haven’t even handed back the huge donations they got from Putins criminal frontmen who still own huge properties in London and elsewhere. All protected by UK high profile lawyers. |  |

3,000 yellow & blue scarves probably only cost the club a couple of grand plus some labour costs to put them on the seats, it would not have added too much to the aid effort in terms of food etc.
This is a war of attrition against the Russians, to wear them down and show that the World is against them, that means that gestures like this make the news and keep the profile high in the media.
Of course all the money spent would be best helping the refugees, but sometimes some has to be spent on spreading the message |  |

Nick - 100% right! Reinforced by the Chinses not showing Premier League games this last weekend - it is not about 1 grand action but the cumulative effect of all actions - big and small. | | | |
