Dejan Lovren has been liking Trump tweets. They've officially cancelled him. Allison a fan of Bolsonaro too by all accounts, but I dont think hes cancelled yet.

Trawling through historical tweets and comments, trying to get people cancelled, really makes the "liberal left" look terribly petty and vindictive.Trump supporters feed off this crap. Deal with the big picture and educate people, rather than being an online loser trying to get someone's livelihood removed.

How do you get to feel righteous and self-important then?

CrossFit guy resigned/was forced out a few weeks ago after it emerged he's a racist p***k. Hundreds of affiliated gyms worldwide left them and Reebok pulled their global sponsorship. Now this new stuff over the weekend. I wouldn't consider it him getting cancelled rather than getting his just desserts.

He still owns the company.

He owns it but was forced to resign from any sort of executive role.

Not really helped in any way though, quite a few of the bigger names are still refusing to take part in the games upcoming until he's gone completely - including Emma McQuaid.

Lovren is a bit of an idiot judging by the political stuff he publicly endorses.

From what I read about Allison, supposedly he said that he was willing to give Bolsonaro a chance after the leftists having been in charge.

"I believe that people preach a lot of freedom of speech, but they don't know how to respect the opinion of others. We have lived years where the left-wing has economically sunk the country. They did good things, they mainly helped the poorest, but what was the goal? What they did badly was much more serious than the positive things. You don't have to put it on a scale. He did something wrong, he stole, but he helped so-and-so, the poor. It's not like this.

"I see people who didn't vote for Bolsonaro hoping he does something wrong to be right. It's not a question of being right. If he's a good president, it will be good for everyone, even those who didn't vote for him. I hope that the changes that have happened are for the good of Brazil and that I can continue my journey in the national team and bring joy to people through football, which has always been an escape for our country."


That said, Allison is still only 27. Personally I was just starting to get interested in politics at that point. I would presume, if he is as open-minded as he suggests in this quote, that he will equally see the negative effects of what Bolsonaro is doing, just like he did with the previous government, even as he acknowledged they tried to help the poor.

Would never work the profile of a Premier League player would mean that they need Social media for their endorsements and sponsorship.

They should be banned from posting anything of their own without being accompanied by a PR firm although they can land plenty of people in the shit as well!!

I know it's impossible but as you said these things need to go through a PR savvy manager!
