The FA will discuss a ban on slogans on T-shirts at a meeting next month. They say the changes are necessary because of 'grey areas' about what is acceptable and unacceptable to have on a T shirt.
Why not leave it up to the referee? He already has to report all messages seen on T-shirts to the FA after a game. Instead, players could be made to reveal the messages on their T shirts to the referee before the match. The referee would have the power to veto anything considered too controversial - which wouldn't apply to 'Why Always Me?', 'Thank You Madiba' or 'God Is Great'.
A ban would take some of the colour, life and 'water-cooler moments' out of football. Let's call on the FA not to be killjoys.

Football is suppose to be about personality. Why do they want to make everything so boring? Let the lads have a bit of fun ffs.

Total joke. The suits have no clue what fans actually like. Just leave it alone.
