  1. Well you’re suspicions are wrong and he has just confirmed the way it was intended but hey ho
  2. It's all there if read it in the context it is meant after reading @Chindie previous post but let's not ruin a good old fashioned kangaroo court shall we , pass me my black hat and put some sombre music on in the background. Norman Stanley Foreveryoung you appear before this court today accused of......................
  3. He may be he may not, absolutely no idea but if you read back it has been agreed way back on this thread that anecdotal evidence is not to be relied upon but it appears it now is dependant on whom the poster is and the narrative of the post. All I was doing was pointing out the inconstancy and I get accused as supplying a 'textbook' response with no explanation of what that actually means. Would be nice to get a balanced response but will not hold my breath
  4. You are missing the point completely, I doubt for one minute he thinks the quote is not racist, he is disputing the validity of the post actually happening in the real world. I have not offered an opinion, only the way I read it
  5. I assume you are referring to my post. Could you highlight what is so 'textbook' about it please
  6. The point the fella is making is that he doubts very much there is any truth in the alleged peeping at a text on the train allegation. He has a point as well, anecdotal evidence such as this has been discounted as not reliable many times before if it does not fit the narrative, I have been a victim of it myself quoting one of my black friends and being being shot down In flames on this very thread during the upheaval after Floyd was murdered. He’s not quoting whether it is a racist statement or not of course it is, He is making the point that it fits at the narrative of that we are terribly racist society that many like to adhere to, which on a whole we are not IMO
  7. Would not think so but have no idea, I do not think they are that deep or forward thinking, they just want to shift product
  8. Most certainly is odd seeing as they are the much larger ethnic demographic by over 50% compared to black British
  9. What about the under representation on TV and adverts of British Asians. Is this racist on behalf of the advertisers as they believe products will not sell on the same basis. For what it’s worth I think Advertisers operate a tick a box inclusion system into adverts with black people as the first tick, let’s be honest if they don’t people will complain, less with the exclusion of Asians maybe? just as the racists complain if it is the other way round. I don’t think the majority of people really care who is in the adverts as I believe we are not a overtly racist country. Social media makes us think differently
  10. I don’t think so, ultimately goals win games
  11. I pretty much think the owners will let him do what he wants, Looking at the recruitment of him. Cannot see it being an issue here
  12. I think Carr is an up to date version of Bob Monkhouse
  13. Son of a Butcher, local lad and and one of our own. Adkins playing the comedy action role, You’ve seen it 100 times before, But a good way to kill a couple of hours. Excellent martial arts choreography and some really cheesy one-liners. Solid 7 out of 10. Upgraded from a six purely due to the killer clown who can feel no pain
  14. Great ball to find him as well, Anyone that ignores what Emi does for the team is a lunatic
  15. The crowd certainly get excited over nothing
  16. The cowboy in Wolverhampton city centre used to say my Mrs looked like the girl off the test card when she was younger
  17. Do not really get these old fighters putting on these exhibition bouts. Tonight it’s Ricky Hatton’s turn with Marco Antonio Barrera. Looks in good shape after losing four stone but is this just purely for money, of course it is. 8 2 minute rounds with no decision zzzzzz
  18. We don’t want anyone who’s nickname is the thin one anywhere near us was the quote I believe
  19. Will be gone before Monday I reckon
  20. I love the hotel set up’s in them
  21. Was only three minutes from the ground in the multi story so paid the price, that single file on the M6 didn’t help
