Do you WANT to keep taking the knee? Premier League footballers are asked if they want to STOP the pre-match gesture by the PFA after fans booed it across Football League grounds
The PFA has issued a survey to all professional male and female clubs in England asking them if they want to continue taking the knee.
The questionnaire sent out to all Premier League, EFL and Women’s Super League clubs includes five questions on whether the pre-match gesture should be carried on in support of black lives and anti-racism.
The survey asks whether players from each club would prefer to take the knee as a squad or individually and what should be done if there is a backlash from fans.

The final two questions ask the players if they wish to see an alternative gesture replace the current one, while also encouraging them to provide details of what they think would be more appropriate.
The news comes after two more football matches faced a backlash from supporters after players took the knee earlier this week.
An Exeter fan was thrown out for booing during his side’s home clash against Harrogate Town, while jeers were also heard at the Cambridge United ground during their game against Colchester United.
