@ Kasz...

Don't call my argument self-centered and selfish! You totally missed my whole argument.

I'm not saying no-one is allowed to follow religion. I'm saying everyone should have the right to follow the religion of their choice on the field. It's not stopping freedom in anyway! FIFA just don't want religion to interfere with the game and become an issue that skews it.

No rights are being taken away, FIFA is a group not a government. All groups have rule to protect the interests and FIFA just don't want anything to do with religion and I acknowledge and respect that because I like all fans go to a football match TO WATCH FOOTBALL, nothing else.

So people rights to follow religion still exist, none have been taken away. They just don't want an issue made out of religion because it will cause them problems.

FIFA have nipped it in the bud before a problem of a Muslim team plays a Christian team arises and all hell breaks lose.
