Rob182 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Shame on his teammates for repeatedly trying to hold him on the pitch. They should be joining him in walking off and getting the game called off. No doubt they're just saying "You're letting them win if you walk off", but that's not the point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 17, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 17, 2020 I don't see why players find it so hard. If you're teammate is getting so much racist abuse that he wants to walk off, why is it so hard to walk off with him? Even if you're trying to convince him to stay on, if that doesn't work, then just **** walk off with him. Disgusting really. At least @screwdriver will be happy. It's "up to the black lads" after all. Marega walked off so job done, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I thought it was terrible that he others attempted to stop him leaving the pitch. Why the **** would he want to stay at that team? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Aren't teams still worried if they all walk off as one then the game will be awarded against them? Feels trivial but I'm pretty sure some of the England players had those thoughts when Mings was getting it recently plus UEFA/FIFA warn against this given they put the messages over the tannoy first. Plus all the if we walk off it lets the racists win mindset. Players have walked off. Eto'o walked off the pitch when he played for Barcelona, nothing happened. Kevin Prince Boateng walked off the pitch for Milan, think he got fined. A player in another league I believe got a one match ban, will find out his name later. I don't think it's worth it for teams when the actual punishments are a joke by the authorities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do as I can pick up Radio Derby on TV so listen to their games from time to time. Craig Ramage made a Big Ron error and ultimately it was untenable for him to continue in his position.

His Name Is Death Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Don't know why Dier couldn't be civil and kind and defeat the nobhead racist in the marketplace of ideas. Hope to see more of this from him in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted March 5, 2020 Moderator Share Posted March 5, 2020 This is no longer being reported as anything to do with racism. Although it would appear that it might just be because Jose is cleaning up after Spurs following the incident with the Chelsea player. I would guess Spurs are currently deciding which will lose them more money, "Dier is crazy" or "Our fans are racist". It's confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Liverpool taking a knee for the black lives matter campaign. It will probably go down better than the last time they decided to have an official response to a race related issue. Spoiler I wonder if their club captain still has his Suarez t-shirt? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
