I'd guess Lampard is a pro-Business Tory Remainer. 

I'd be flabbergasted if Big Mick wasn't solid Remain. 

Branching out, both Bobby George and James Wade are partial to a double 14 - confirmed Remainers. Wadey even carries the European flag on the back of his shirt.

However I can't find any articles telling us whether or not he supports Brexit, so it would be crazy to make any assumptions.

I remember an interview with Jones some years ago, when he was actually quite articulate, if using simple language, on racism.
Basically said that you can't reason with racists, since they just hate, pure and simple. So you've got to oppose them.

Can't find it just now, but this gives a flavour:

The 46-year-old was all smiles as he took part in an impromptu coaching session at the launch of 'Tackling it Together' before getting deadly serious when discussing the race rows currently engulfing the English game.

'I was fighting racism 20 years ago,' said the former Wimbledon midfielder when asked about Blatter's recent comments that racism on the pitch should be settled by a handshake.


My room partner was John Fashanu. We'd go to grounds and they'd throw bananas on the pitch. I used to throw them back.

'We've come a long way and we don't need our leaders like him (Blatter) tripping it up.

'We finally got a grip on it and then silly comments are made.'

Jones revealed how he and fellow 'Crazy Gang' member Dennis Wise would handle racist abuse directed against their black team-mates.

'If there was any kind of racism at all, the white lads would say, "We're not having this",' he said.

'You can't have the black or Asian lads just trying to stick up for themselves. It's got to be taken a step further, which me and Wisey did 20 years ago in sticking up for Fash, saying, "You stay out of it, we'll deal with these idiots".'

Young Vincent also said he didn't recognise Britain due to immigration, was unaware of UKIP and felt that 'we need to look after our own first'. He was also once being groomed, apparently, to run for the Tories.

Martin Keown - DEFINITE REMAIN (he can talk fluently, it's obvious)
Robbie Fowler - LEAVE
Luke Shaw - REMAIN
Barry Fry - LEAVE
Glen Johnson - REMAIN

HARD REMAINERS:

McCarthy's from Yorkshire.

Those twats don't even want to remain in the UK, never mind the EU:


In fact, he's from Barnsley, so he possibly doesn't even want to remain in Yorkshire.

Paul Merson is a Brexiteer.

Some divide on Merseyside.

Liverpool supporters: 77% REMAIN (second highest in the Premier League to Brighton's 81%).

Everton supporters: 57% LEAVE. 

Stoke were 60% REMAIN ShockedLOL

It will surprise nobody that Chelsea were the biggest LEAVERS on 62%.

That's bizarre, they say a Merseyside divide and only mention one group of fans from Merseyside.

You've jumped the gun there - Everton actually haven't left for Knowsley yet.

I was referring to Liverpool, those numbers are hardly surprising given how the rest of London voted.
