Nike and Iran

[diz]

LOL that Tyler Lauletta of "Business Insider" reporting on the TM/Nike issue, uses a photo of an Iraqi player in this article.

After this World Cup, you will know Iran!

You guys are crazy. You really think the players don’t have whatever boots they want? Most of these guys are millionaires already. They don’t have a problem getting boots. Nike can’t stop them from wearing their boots. They can just refuse to supply the team for free.

That's not the point. You are being discriminated against and singled out because of your nationality. It is not about someone going off to a store buying something. Imagine you are invited to a party and everyone is served a drink, except you.

No shit Sherlock. I’m not saying this isn’t the issue. My point was that people are worried the players won’t have the right boots. That won’t be a problem.

A CORRUPTED WORLD THAT SPORTSMANSHIP AND FAIR PLAY MEANS SH.T

We are living in a era that the new world order has given US President as a sole power to decide for nations. In this era politics are mixed with sports.

In this era, the fear of sanctions overpower principles. Just see how FIFA has shut the F up shitless scared of trump issuing no statement. This shall continue.

FOR THOSE WHO THOUGHT TRUMP WAS THEIR SAVIOR Please note now that your trump is not the friend of your nation. In fact Trump has no issue with Ayatollahs. He’s a fascist like Khameneyi. There is minimal differences between them as one grabs women by their vagina and gets elected by illuminati and the other one marries little girls by the verse of holy book. Yes trump is more advanced thanks to technology

But remember our nation has two enemies. Trump and Khamenyi. Remember these days how Trump belittled our nation.

DO NOT BE SURPRISED to see this KKK fascist lunatic shaking hands with Khameneyi. The enemy of your enemy is not necessarily your friend. Always remember that.

BOYCOTT NIKE!!

BOYCOTT NIKE

I urge all Iranians to boycott Nike. What they said and did was completely unnecessary as was meant only to appease the Orange Monkey. Fact is that they did not have to come out and say that they will NOT sponsor Iran's team. They do not sponsor all teams anyways.

The fully knew that the TM players can easily buy the shoes if they wanted and that they had no control or say if the TM players decided to wear the shoes. They made this statement publicly to endear themselves to the freaking rednecks and to hurt the Iranian team.

AS CQ said, Nike has to apologize to TM as well as the whole Footballing and WC community. Until then, not another dime spent on their products.

NIKE tries to whitewash the entire saga.... Lame attempt.

Guys, we are getting huge traction on our PFDC Twitter account and we are directly in contact with Nike as we have tagged them ... honestly, posting threads here on PFDC mean nothing and won't change Nike's attitude.

Use international platforms like Twitter (the best platform for invoking change). I have ZERO doubt that our PFDC Twitter account has resulted in Nike coming out with a statement to backtrack. We got HUGE RTs and Likes and caused a huge storm by getting on Twitter Moments front page.

If you are not on Twitter - you have to do better guys and realize that actions like this will only result in change.

Haven't bought any Nikes for years and am not planning to change that either.

Funny that the article says that Addidas is sponsoring Iran. And Addidas CEO CEO, Kasper Rorsted is saying "“We equip the Iranian team because a lot of Iranians love football, and at the end of the day we believe in sport,” Rorsted told Russia’s RT.com. “We believe that through sport we have the power to change lives.

"If we start being a political engine then we don't actually have the freedom to do what we want to do and that's really making people's lives better.”

... they are equipping us because they get paid. But still they are better than Nike.

Guys I know it's not fun but this is political and hence we need to chill out. Being angry or not buying Nike will not change anything.

Follow, like and RT. Sign up to Twitter y'all. No offense, this thread was good-intention, but will not lead to change. We had a lot of influencers tweet out our tweets regarding Nike!
