Quote: " surely any decent person would understand we all hate other palyers but boo'ing them for wearing the England shirt is absolutley pathetic and wrong.'"
Nobody boos anybody for wearing the England shirt.
But we can pretend that you meant booing someone who is wearing an England shirt in a representative game.
For one. Any England side in any sport is representative of that sport in England. The players whom wear their countries colours represent the ideals, values and skills of the players of that sport in England.
Sam T may have the skills to represent England. But in my opinion his ideals, values and morals are not up to scratch and therefore I don't wish to see him represent me, as a Rugby League player or an Englishman.
I don't boo players anymore, I am not ten and the pantomime villains are nearly all gone.
If I were to boo Sam T it would be aimed at McBanana for selecting someone who is in my opinion unfit to represent his country.
