you shut the hell up and let queen colleen have her time shes solving mysteries!!!!!!
Is anyone else a bit sick of seeing England act like the bastions of world peace and denouncing anyone they play against as racist Neanderthals that don't deserve to even have a national side... Even though England still has a huge and deep rooted problem with racism themselves???
I get why Bulgaria should be in trouble, racism is ridiculously shit, but the UK media and the team spent weeks stirring the pot and incite the ultras to do it. And then cried like little school girls once it happened. Then had to gall to sing songs about how racist Bulgaria were as if they've never thrown a banana at a player, or made monkey faces at them, or sung anti-Semitic songs during games...
**** any racist football fan or racist person in general, but also **** any British person right now acting like it doesn't happen from them.
Side rant. What happened to all the England players who said they'd walk off as soon as they heard any racist jeers or chants from the crowd? Did they realise it could hurt their qualifying campaign if they walked off and the ref classified it as forfeit? Maybe next time don't act like you're bigger than UEFA if you don't have the backing of your employer (FA) and can't actually go through with it.
yeah the English press made a thing out of the national team players being really grown up and sensible about handling racism because they are so used to copping it from home fans that they are now seasoned vets.
it was a real weird flex.
to be fair i found it even weirder that Harry Kane jumped in and claimed that the racism directed at Sterling was actually his and he should be credited with it.
ROFL.
He will deservedly be beaten with that stick for the rest of his career. What a twat he is.
Fish in a barrel my man.
And I'm here with all of the bullets.
Spot on - dunno what the other outlets are like but the BBC has three "agenda" items it likes to push daily - women's football, racism and Manchester United.
I'm from a "sticks and stones, turn the other cheek" generation. It's wrong but the way the English media handles it inflames the situation.
That is what happens when your country embraces virtue signalling as currency
These woke EPL stars try to out do one another with it
Just like all the nutters in the NFL and NBA seem to think they have a platform to shove their leftist politics down everyone's throats too
Dont know how these poor ****ers on hundreds of thousands of pounds each week are dealing with racism whilst they eating with gold plated knives and forks
i dunno, maybe because racism is ****ed and no one should put up with it?
So exactly where is the income line that racism isnt ok? you've obviously got some sort of award document that tells you where it kicks in right?
you're probably the bloke who thinks when hookers and porn stars get raped its not a big deal "shes out there shagging everyone anyway".
The irony is at a football game involving 2 national sides where national pride is being celebrated and displayed
you are honestly surprised that racial superiority doesn't come into the equation
Thought you were much smarter
You think Anti racism is just Leftie politics now? Cause that shit is pretty much centrist to everyone else.
Yes it is leftist politics to a tea
Identity politics is one of the lefts favourite tools
Those ****s are paid to play football
Just as Kapernick WAS paid to play NFL
Maybe they should actually stick to that subject and leave the politics alone
remind me again which countries are cool with racism?
because you're confusing national pride with racism. It is very very easy to have one without the other.
Didnt see them making monkey noises at the white English players.
Firstly anti racism is for everyone who isn't a racist. It's not a left thing, only an idiot or a bigot would think otherwise. Take your pick.
Secondly, politicians are the people we shouldn't be leaving politics too. They look after the people who keep them in a job, and that isn't the local punter placing their votes every few years.
you do realise that having someone chant monkey noises at you isnt politics right?
you do understand thats some racist bullshit right?
I dont see Raheem Sterling out on the pitch waving a Bernie Sanders flag. Hed just like to go about his profession without all the monkey noises.
Thats not politics.
Most people don't give a flying duck about race
It is the left who constantly bring everything back to race with their identity politics
So who are the racists again? ?
They are footballers
They are paid to kick a football about
Maybe they should stick to that
UEFA have options available to sanction FAs for Dan behaviour that breaches rules
It is the players who keep making this about them with their virtual signalling at every opportunity
It was Harry Kane who chose to open his mouth after the game and talk up his virtual signalling agenda rather than discuss the game and the result etc
As I said maybe they should actually stick to football
They are football fans
They are paying to watch a football get kicked about
Maybe they should stick to that
ima hang for a bit because i know you are doing your thing and are prob talking your way into yet another ban but the 'stick to football' is def an interesting thing.
We've seen it this week where the usually woke NBA brigade went real silent when they realised their views might cost themselves some money.
I agree its easy to jump on the bandwagon (Trump hate, cop hate etc) but geez it was interesting seeing players go silent on a pretty fundamentally basic issue.
also funny were the 'stick to sports' brigade now wanting these guys to not stick to sports.
i honestly believe that the richer you get the more cowardly you become. financial comfort is a freedom plenty of people are not willing to jeopardise.
The first point is almost true, the majority of the world doesn't care what race someone is. It's the racists who do.
And you're saying it's the fault of the person who called the racist out that a problem exists, rather than the racist. They should have just shut up and played football and not listened to the whistling and chants directed at them because it's in their contract? Basically, if someone is at work they are allowed to be racially abused according to your logic.
Let me guess, women also shouldn't complain about sexual assault if they are at work?
But yeah, somehow bring up the Left again in the hope that the word wins an argument for you rather than any facts.
