yeah yeah.Originally Posted by MFKS
just wondering how you would solve the issue of the match itself.
i mean, the team walked off and they were losing. How do we solve the issue of the match itself. not the racism, i dont expect you to solve that.
its just a weird situation.
I still think nothing is the answer
You kick the Yeovil club out then all you are doing is encouraging ****wits to go buy a ticket to their rivals games and get them kicked out of things
Everton fans be queuing up to get tickets to Anfield to cost Liverpool the EPL and they be pissing themselves laughing when it happened. ****s would be having whip around to get the bloke out on bail too and the **** wouldn't have to buy a beer ever again
They are opening the biggest Pandoras Box trying to be touching this subject
So Yeovil go through to the next round?
Because then you're flipping it around and saying racially abusing an opposition player is a legitimate tactic yeah?
Because it worked for Yeovil.
If teams want to walk off and forfeit games based on their so called beliefs then they are more than entitled to
They want to bring their politics into sport or virtue signal then they can lose the game as a consequence
Might make them focus on actually playing football
I feel like you're a 12 yr old kid who thinks "sports" are just games that EA bring out each year. I mean, never in the history of sports has politics or human rights ever even been remotely close to an issue. Players aren't even humans really, they are walking talking contractual agreements designed for your entertainment and nothing else. You would have a been a very unhappy man at the 1936 Berlin Olympics.
Also, side note, it's not "their beliefs" it's common practice for human beings to be against racism. Racists are the minority, not the majority. Don't let the guy in the TV convince you otherwise.
So Racism is just a part of society and we should just accept it and try and ignore it? Wow you always find ways to sink lower and lower
Can think of better things to concern myself with
As it ain't that important of an issue in my eyes
Equality of outcome is a flawed concept
Will racism be totally stopped, honestly, I doubt it. Been around for decades. Being serious for minute it is the reaction, fuelled by social media that is making this seem bigger that it ever was.
Go back to the 70's - Clyde Best and The Three Degrees (Cunningham, Batson and Regis) - they copped it when common derogatory words were acceptable socially and in media. Guys like that went through far more hell as trailblazers, didn't blink, stood their ground played football and won. They, and several others, are true football legends. After their efforts racism dropped out of the newspapers for some time.
yes thats a good take remember how Halle Berry is 80% deaf in one ear from getting the shit beaten out of her by her partner but shes now super famous so maybe its cool to keep beating the shit out of little girls and maybe they'll grow up one day to win an Oscar too ITS ALL ABOUT MENTAL FORTITUDE GUYS!!!!!!
So if the ref calls it off?
who benefits then?
Ref already has the power to call a game off already
So consult the competition rules then
but heres the problem. The refs obligations and instructions are written down in the rules in black and white (pardon the pun).
but once we enforce the rules, it then goes off into the never never for a bunch of suits to decide.
same with racism, the ref can call it off, but no one has any idea what happens after that.
and fwiw, you are actually dead wrong as far as people bringing their 'beliefs' into football.
its in the rules, the same as offside, the same as handball the same as the whole of the ball being over the whole of the line.
people bringing racism into the game is not some trendy cause. its a ****ing rule.
For anyone wondering what actually happened and the aftermath.

So we got people taking offence blowing this up deluxe when it didn't happen to them
Where exactly is the victim in all this ??
Pretty silent it seems
That just as big apart of the problem here.
Outrage culture with all these Muppets taking offence on behalf of some other ****
These people are just creating mountains out of molehills when the victim makes less if a fuss than they do
Ummmm.. the victim is the bloke having sh!t thrown at him and being called a "a monkey c$#%" JUST because of the colour of his skin...
How is that right? Or a simple molehill?
It's more concerning that you can't see that that sort of behaviour is absolutely fvcked and totally unacceptable..
And who is blowing this issue up??
The victim or other people it didn't actually happen to ???
Because old mate seems to have said and done **** all
if wanting to punch on with some racists assholes is 'being silent' then cool cool.and Achillea said the defender was so incensed he had to be restrained from approaching away fans
I mean, its right there in the article.
Im getting worried Member, you used to be able to deliver these with just enough over the top idiocy that any normal person could see that you couldnt be serious.
nowadays, just idiocy.
I guess you're getting both better, and worse at the same time.
so ummm congrats (i think).
Where the goal keeper in all this??
90% of the actions of these morons seem to be directed his way
Probably fearing for his safety by a group of racists thugs. What do you want him to do, come out and antagonize even more racist Neanderthals? Do you think he doesn't deserve to be treated like a human because he won't come out and fight the guys who attacked him with bottles and spit and verbal abuse?
Hopefully the replay is filled with better people and Yeovil Town don't get punished for a small group of idiot fans. But if they can't control their fans, then the team gets punished.
The good member auditioning as the new commissioner of the AFL.
Every time you miss, just move the goalposts so you can award yourself some points.
well played.
