why is he having a pop at Anton, who as far as i can tell hasnt said anything on the matter.

nor made a complaint.

the who issue has been created by one dopey twat on youtube. this was on the back page of the Standard last night, rather than the fact QPR beat Chelsea. wtf is that about. someone makes something up, the accused has to defend themselves, the "victim" doesnt say a dickie bird, though has to have discussions with the club about it. is there nothing more important in the world to be writing about?

i know people make stuff up and spread it around the internet for wind ups and laughs, but this is silly.

The Mail really don't help themselves.

Not only is it a ridiculous article and take on the issue - but both cases are much too far from being proven to be even attempting to write this kind of piece.

this.

why? because he's a wanker.

Love how the article starts off condemning another country for racism, and then goes on to say, we've heard enough about it in this country, to the point of 'boredom'.

Weren't we the scum of the earth about two weeks ago for calling Bellamy a sheep shagger?

And two weeks on, black players should stop complaining about being racially abused?

Astounding.

The basis of the article:
Spain are more racist so thats ok
We used to be bad but it's got a bit better
John terry is a nasty man anyway so it's no suprise
Once a man apologised for his racist slur so that was a good sign
Because its not as bad as it used to be we should just leave it.

GOOD WORK

Cant see a problem than you grauniad readers looking for something the whine about.

Try putting the article in its context.

"When we read about British footballers levelling complaints of racism against each other, it’s worth making the comparison with what passes as everyday behaviour in a nearby country we are often invited to admire.

This just draws a comparison. He goes on to say how things change.

"So, Mr Evra and Mr Ferdinand, I know you feel insulted. But perhaps in this case you could just put up with it and get on with the game
"

He says in this case, he is acusing footballers of being petty. To me hes right. Sledging is sledging, just because its racial does not justify outbreaks of hysterical outrage unless you are an oversensative leftwing fucknut.

Label me an oversensitive left wing fucknut if you must but I think it's perfectly justified. Bringing any sort of personal context to the insult (such as colour, sexuality) takes it out of the realms of sledging, for me anyway.

Now THAT is just a typical response from an oversensitive left wing fucknut. You'll be saying Big Ron's a racist next...
