England! Thanks to Your support in EURO 2020


From the article of Emma Powys Maurice



Despite Italy won the EURO final 2020 in the Home stadium of England ( Wembley Stadium), the English players were praised for their progressive politics throughout the competition and even if They got a silver medal, their support and contribution should be awarded with a gold medal.

After the questionable words declared by the UEFA president (Aleksander Čeferin), the England team decided to not follow the guidelines of UEFA and on the international stage, they wore rainbow laces and armbands, making no secret of their LGBTIQ+ allyship in a competition plagued by homophobia.

“Our players are role model” said England coach Gareth Southgate. “It’s their duty to continue to interact with the public on matters such as equality, inclusivity and racial injustice, while using the power of their voices to help put debates on the table, raise awareness and educate.”

A lot of people were so proud about the social path made by England in this Europe Cup. Adele Roberts, a DJ of Radio one tweeted a glad and pride sentence: "Standing up against racism, being brilliant LGBTIQ+ allies and giving 100 per cent on the pitch. From Southgate to Pickford they’re united.”.



Remember that FA was one of the first football federation to condemn all form of discrimination and after the defeat of England in the final It was appalled by the online racism that has been aimed at some of England players on social media.

Also the team tweeted: "We’re disgusted that some of our squad – who have given everything for the shirt this summer – have been subjected to discriminatory abuse online after tonight’s game".


The ARC community expresses solidariety for all England players who have suffered discriminatory attacks.

Hello, I wanted the trip to be pleasant and pleasurable because it was intended to commemorate my sister's wedding anniversary. Rightcheckin assisted me in meticulously planning every aspect. All the necessary information was readily available, and the booking process was straightforward. The encounter was enjoyable because I never felt hurried or perplexed. Knowing that the journey would be as joyful as the celebration that lay ahead made me feel fantastic.

I arranged my Umrah journey with Ready 2 Travels, and the service exceeded all expectations. From the very beginning, everything was handled with professionalism and care, making the entire process seamless and worry-free. Their ATOL protection provided complete reassurance, and the team guided us clearly through every visa step. Our stay in Makkah was outstanding—a clean, luxurious 5-star hotel just minutes from the Haram, which made performing Umrah incredibly convenient. The trip was peaceful, well-managed, and spiritually uplifting. If you’re looking for a reliable and experienced UK-based agency for Hajj or Umrah, Ready 2 Travels is an excellent choice. JazakAllah Khair.

Hey, constant business travel can be mentally and physically taxing, and that's where Rightcheckin really came in handy. Particularly when I needed prompt help with my international reservation, the service seemed dependable and well-run. I felt at ease knowing that everything, including trip information and ticket confirmation, was handled correctly. I was able to concentrate on getting ready for meetings rather than stressing about making travel plans.
