"football is above politics' is what the FA said when they let Germany play England inside White House Lane with Swastika flags flying in the 1930s.

Hart.
the News published a score of letters from “fans”, the vast majority of whom were against any sort of protest and a number quite openly racist. Under the heading “England For England”, one read: “As one of the oldest season ticket holders of the Spurs it greatly amused me to read of the Jewish proposed boycott of next month’s match. I am in every way with them that they should walk out at a given signal but with a one way ticket and not come back ... It is up to the English boys to turn up as many as they can; it will be very nice to watch an English match with only English supporters.”
