That is bloody brilliant. Although they missed out John looking for a new BFF so he can nail their Mrs.

Surely the FA have to investigate both Chelsea and Sunderland for this. It doesn't matter that the game was a dead rubber, if they are to uphold the integrity of the game they need to act.

Looks like he's off to Villa.

Mad that. Surely he's still got enough in him for a lower league PL club. They must be paying him top wack.

West Ham suspend Tony Henry over claims of club policy against signing Africans


West Ham have suspended director of player recruitment Tony Henry over claims he said the club would not sign any more African players.

The Daily Mail reported that Henry said African players "cause mayhem" when they are not in the team.

In a statement, West Ham said they will not tolerate any type of discrimination and have "therefore, acted swiftly due to the serious nature of these claims".

Henry has been suspended pending "a full and thorough investigation".

The statement continued: "The West Ham United family is an inclusive one where, regardless of gender, age, ability, race, religion or sexual orientation, everybody feels welcome and included.

"The club will make no further comment until the investigation has been concluded."

The club says all employees are trained on equality, diversity and unconscious bias.

West Ham have six first-team squad members of African descent: Cheikhou Kouyate, Pedro Obiang, Joao Mario, Angelo Ogbonna, Arthur Masuaku and Edimilson Fernandes.

Senegal striker Diafra Sakho left the club in the January transfer window to join Rennes, with Ghana international Andre Ayew heading to Swansea.

West Ham are 12th in the Premier League, but only four points above the relegation zone.

You mean the specific players who you signed and just happened to be African?

Why do people think that a sample of 3 or 4 is enough to label and entire continent?

[dom9]

Because they're racist.

[Fosterbloke]

Because they're racist.
