celebs should never ever be taken seriously when it comes to any other matter than the one they actually excel at, be it football or acting etc.

No I dont want a fucking actor, raised by actors, isolated from society telling me how to vote or what to think about economics. Same goes for footballers. These people are not normal in any sense of the word nor do they have any understanding of the world they live in so sheltered.

I generally agree with you but just playing devil's advocate, I think Rashford used his voice and position well to make good effective change.

I mean... until pretty recently we'd have said the same about Jordan Henderson....

Rashford has also said absolutely nothing about Mason Greenwood coming back and it would have totally happened were it not for fans and staff revolting. So he's not some paragon of virtue either
