Premier League Kick-Off a Kick in the Teeth


I wrote a letter to the Daily Telegraph on Wednesday.  Unsurprisingly, the spineless editorial staff did not print it so it was fortunate that Yorkshire Mushroom, fearlessly upholding free speech, reproduces it below:

"Dear Sir

My wife has spent a lot of time recently sewing material into hospital scrubs. I see the Premier League has seen fit to commission, probably, hundreds of football shirts embroidered with, "black lives matter," to replace the usual club strips. This use of textile and manufacturing resources seems to be a kick in the teeth to those who have been donating their time to, we are told, the vital NHS cause."
