Racism in Football

[Vermilion]

I think that's irrelevant really. Spurs will get into the CL and Harry will stay at spurs with a big transfer fund to pocket.

Would be one of the biggest collapses in history if they choked now, their form has been pretty consistant.

Bale and Modric getting injured would do it though, but i doubt that'll happen. *says a little prayer*

Samuel is genuine scum and a hypocrite.

So much easier for everybody if he would just accept that the verdict of the kangaroo courts is in, without the tiresome necessity of due legal process in a proper one.

This is a civilised society, after all. We don’t presume. We don’t pre-judge. And we don’t involve ourselves in idle gossip.

We are told our multi-racial society will not accept such a prominent public figure being accused of racism; well then, our multi-racial society needs to grow up.

Cough.

Heard all about that article and can't bring myself to read it - I know it'll just wind me up. What a hypocritical cunt he is.

Holy. ****. don't really know why I am suprised. The press getting behind Terry was nailed on after the amount of stick our man got.

Time to go to town on beardy man methinks.

Too be honest I agree with what he means when he is talking about the overall case. But I cant abide by the venom he is writing. The way he treats people with a broad brush is hugely condescending and seems agenda driven.

Terry cant be prejudged until the outcome of the case. Thats how I read it. I don't know why he cant say that and be done with all the needless padding and moral high ground grabbing.

Shaggy did you write that article




"But this is a man’s reputation and career at stake. It is not Strictly Come Racism."

My problem is that when you compare this to the Suarez case, he is a complete hypocrite.

The logic should be exactly the same regardless of the perpetrator.

I suppose. His defence would be that there was a verdict on Suarez so he is going by that. Which is wrong as we all know he isn't a Racist, the FA said as much. There does seem too be more vocal defence of Terry though. Which really wasn't the case with Luis.

[Shaggy]

Samuel would've had Suarez hung, drawn and quartered on the back of no evidence. Now he's insisting "We need hard facts, not vague implorations. We are going to find out the truth of this matter, but sometime after July 9. Sorry if that is vexatious" - hard facts. It is absolutely unbelievable hypocrisy.

Don't forget the implication that Suarez was guilty pretty much as soon as it happened. Then, you look at the lack of hard evidence, the political motives of the FA, the bias in the written verdict, to which we can conclude that Suarez was tried by a 'kangaroo court', you can see where I'm coming from.

Purely going on this article he is right, but as you say he would have had Suarez shot against a wall for the same 2 months ago. So he is a massive hypocrite. Unfortunately there are alot of people that believe and trust him.

The contrast between people's opinions on Suarez to that of Terry is beyond belief. I can't read much more about this case because the whole Suarez thing made my blood boil - the Terry case is rubbing salt in the wounds.

Do you think Harry would turn down the England job (if it was offered to him) because Spurs were in the CL?
