Racism in Football

Which is where these places and footballers need to be educated and bettered. All the fines and suspensions UEFA or whoever hand out every now and then do fuck all, really.

Fines are a waste of time in football when there is so much money in circulation in the game, the same problems will still happen.  Also I like to know where does that money actually go when they do get fined! 

I know Uruguay has a huge problem, when Suarez first moved to the Netherlands to play for FC Groningen he said he had to adjust to the culture as didn't know he couldn't say certain things when it came to race like he could in Uruguay and even at Ajax when he was done for biting he came up with the same excuse about the culture.

Slavia can get in the bin after seeing/hearing what had happened to Kamara. Disgusting cunts. 

Apparently they're reporting Rangers players to the police for assault? That is one horrible little club

Eye on the ball? That's laughable, his foot was in the Keepers face, and the ball behind his head

Well the ball is behind his head because Roofe had already made contact with the ball to kick it in that direction. Yes it’s a red card all day long, but the bloke went for the ball. He even actually kicked it ffs.

They said they called the police that night. Police Scotland reported no calls from either club.

They also said Rangers fans stormed the stadium and were in the dressing rooms. They're a vile club and I hope they fold.

Sadly, racism will never ever die when there are thousands (perhaps millions) of people with this ideology. Disgusting that there are great numbers of people who will not just keep it in their head (which is bad enough) but go on camera with a banner parading this kind of shit - apparently Roofe has been targeted too because of that horror tackle too.

What does the Roofe incident have to do with racism?

Nothing, we were chatting about the match both incidents took place in.

Diving header would have been the best move, dangerous play with high feet at a time when concussion is high profile, was stupid beyond belief,  reckless.

As you say, Red card all day long, had he won the ball on the ground, different story.

He must have eyes like Marty Feldman

Just checked Sparta Prague's squad. They have several African players. How are they supposed to feel about this? Seeing images from their "Hooligans" like above.

The ball was only beyond the keeper because he kicked it there. It was reckless, I’ve got no arguments. There’s not a cat in hells chance anyone is getting near that with their head though imho. He’s simply reached too far; a complete misjudgment.

Sparta will feel especially aggrieved given its their rivals Slavia causing all this shit.

Hahaha, wooops. But yeah, I actually meant the Slavia squad. Few players from the Ivory Coast, Senegal, Nigeria.. 

 

SORRY SPARTA!

Yep, a couple of them were right next to Kamara or in the vicinity of it. 

The player in question (Kudela) is probably one of those cunts that says 'I've got black friends and teammates so I can't be racist'

Don't know where his eyes where.....

His head is clearly tracking the ball in the video rab saw, he didn't look up until the ball was right on the keeper. If that didn't satisfy you nothing will.

Right, so his eyes were on the keeper and he was attempting to smash the keeper as he kicked the ball. Gotcha.

Of course it doesn't satisfy me. You can paint whatever story you want though.

[Devil-Dick Willie]

"Paint whatever story"? 

The guys face, is pointing directly at the ball for the entire shot, tracking it as it moves. You think he's really focusing on the goalkeeper with his peripheral vision while pretending to look at the ball?

Possibley the stupidest point I have read, the type of response a teenager would make.

Focusing on the goalkeeper? While PRETENDING  to look at the ball?

You want to show me were I suggested that?

I was asking a question. Hence the question mark. 

If his head is tracking the ball moving, but you say he's looking at the keeper, I'd like to know exactly what you think is happening here. 

[Stan]

@Moon Monkey are you trolling?

Look there is no question mark this time,  if you can show me were I said that? as that's a statement of fact.

Dangerous play, he's going for the ball obviously,  he must be aware of the Keepers position,  he's off the ground with both feet  one directed at the Keepers face, regardless of the ball, probably why he didn't go for a diving header.

Red card. 

With Head injuries becoming high profile now, challenges like this need looked at.

In my humble opinion
