South London Spastics - We Are All 'Wall!

UK: Weird News From England – “We Are All ‘Wall”! (11.3.2026)

Millwall Football Club acknowledges the decision by The Football Association to impose upon it a £45,000 fine and an extension to the FA Action Plan, following a breach of FA Rule E21 during the Carabao Cup fixture against Crystal Palace on Tuesday 16th September 2025.

This highly exploited workforce sews the shirts, footballs, and flags together, which are then played with by the rich adults and children of developed countries as a matter of leisure.
