Adam Crafton has stated on Twitter that Jordan Henderson looked ‘scared’ to sing the national anthem out loud after it was booed by Liverpool supporters at Anfield
Given that it is King Charles III Coronation, football fans up and down the country, prior to their games this weekend, have been singing the national anthem ‘God save the King’.
Many knew what was going to happen on Merseyside because Liverpool fans have booed the national anthem before and will continue to do so for as long as they live – it’s explained why their fans boo the national anthem.
Jordan Henderson didn’t start yesterday’s win over Brentford, but he was on the pitch singing ‘God Save the King’ when the teams were lining up before kick-off.
The 32-year-old, who would come on as a substitute in the second half, has 75-caps to his name for England and he is the captain of the Reds.
But The Athletic’s journalist and BBC pundit Adam Crafton spoke about what he noticed about Henderson before the game as he decided to sing the national anthem amid the boos from the home crowd.
LIVERPOOL FANS HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS
This won’t go down well with some, or even many, but Liverpool fans have every right to express their views in such a way.
This is a democracy, not a dictatorship, whilst some will think that booing your national anthem is offensive, at the end of the day, if you treat your people better, then they wouldn’t hold such views.
This isn’t a today or yesterday problem, but an issue that stems from decades back and it’s one that will never go away.
