Guess we will have to agree to disagree.
FIFA are hardly the bastions of virtue TBH, well up the scale on Shady Crappiness, re World Cups in Russia and Quatar for starters.
You will always get political protests and what better place than a major sporting event, especially when you are being goaded by the object of your protests at the time.
Emily Davidson (suffragette), Jesse Owens (Munich Olympics), Tommie Smith & John Carlos (68 Olympics) , anti apartheid protests by several different sports people all had a great deal of justification IMHO.
On a scale from 1 to 10 on my Crapometer, normal, everyday crap would rank as 1. Shady crap a 2, FIFA would be a 5 or 6. Serbian ethnic cleansing and genocide would rank as a 9, just behind Adolfs Final Solution, Stalins Pograms or Pol Pots Year Zero.
Not sure why they even got fined because they didn't incite the Serbian fans, they were spouting bile and hatred at the three players right from the off.
PS. One protest that was not political and really peed me off at the time was the 1975 pitch destruction at the Headingly test match as part of the Free George Davis campaign.
