Nazi Salute?

[edit]

After watching the YouTube clip and also looking at the photo via the links, all eleven of the England players appear to be doing Nazi salutes. So is the section "Cullis refused to join the rest of his teammates in performing a Nazi salute prior to the match. Cullis, the only player to refuse" correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Solatha (talkcontribs) 19:55, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As per the article: "Cullis, the only player to refuse, was dropped from the team", so he didn't play in the match. If you click on "show more" in the words under the YouTube clip, it confirms that. I'll add another prose source to the article instead of the photo, which doesn't add anything to what the video shows. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 08:04, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It is, however, an urban myth that Cullis was dropped for refusing to give the Nazi salute. He had a poor game when England lost to Scotland on April 9 that year and was dropped by the selectors along with four other players. His place went to Alf Young of Huddersfield. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krghunt (talkcontribs) 14:22, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
