Racism in Football

[john316]

Any idea what Rob Lee was talking about on Goals on Sunday - seen a load of stuff on Twitter that he just acting like a misinformed **** talking about this incident?

Did I hear Arsenal fans singing "John Terry you know what you are" at him yesterday? It will be interesting to see if this reaction from opposition fans continues towards him as long as it has towards Suarez

How long was the Suarez doc?

" Mr. Ferdinand also made a
slow fist pump gesture with his right hand, suggesting sex

Read up to that and blurted out laughing.

How long was the Suarez doc?

115 pages.

From the length of that you'd say it was more of an open & shut case than the Suarez one.

[Alex]

At this juncture, there is no dispute on his part that Mr. Terry used the
following words (although Mr. Ferdinand claims not to have heard them at the
time):
"**** off, **** off, ... ****ing black cunt, ****ing knob-head."

Open and shut case right there?

[Shaggy]

"In contrast with a previous high profile FA disciplinary case involving racial abuse, Mr. Terry‟s racist insult was issued only once."

David Conn @david_conn
FA commission says in mitigation for John Terry, Sir Dave Richards gave testimony about Terry's contribution to "charitable causes."

Ashley Cole when offered Ferdinands hand to shake after the game.........."No...You Can't talk to JT like that".

What a knob.

[Shaggy]

"Mr. Terry and Mr. Ferdinand did not shake hands after the match. On his evidence, Mr. Ferdinand offered to shake hands with Ashley Cole, but the latter refused, saying “nah, you can‟t talk to JT like that.”

Pathetic!

[Alex]

It really is.
