Alongside Kick It Out, English football’s equality and inclusion organisation, the FSA is calling on England fans to stop the boos, support the team and applaud players taking the knee.
Kick It Out debates the ‘Y-Word’
This is a story from the FSF archive – the FSF and SD merged to become the FSA in 2019.
Kick It Out, in conjunction with Manchester Jewish Museum, is hosting a debate on the ‘Y-Word’ and the issue of anti-semitism in football at the National Football Museum on Tuesday 8th April 2014.
The event, The Y-Word – the debate continues, will take place from 6:15pm–9:00pm and consists of a panel discussion with key figures from football and the Jewish community talking about the use of the ‘Y Word’ and its wider impact.
Alex Goldberg, Chair of The FA’s Football and Faith Group, Anthony Clavane, sportswriter for The Sunday Mirror, and Roisin Wood, Director of Kick It Out, have confirmed their places on the panel with more special guests to be announced.
Another event taking place in Manchester is the Four Four Jew exhibition at the Manchester Jewish Museum. The event, which lasts from 18th March to 21st September, will explore the contribution of British Jews in football.
