[Football] Racist invited back as Bbc pundit

[alfredmizen]

Trevor Sinclair has been invited back to the BBC less than a year after admitting racial abuse of a police officer , just thought id highlight this as no doubt a lot of NSC'ers will be outraged at this surely? Youd certainly think so considering the vitriolic abuse John Terry is subjected to on here .

[Albion my Albion]

I don't understand. Is he a Trumpster?

 

[LlcoolJ]

I thought Farage was going to be on TV. AGAIN.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

I thinks it's an excellent idea. It gives the permanently outraged broflakes something to keep them occupied.

 

[The Fifth Column]

How can HE be racist though? Thats not in the rules.

.

 

[alfredmizen]

I thinks it's an excellent idea. It keeps the permanently outraged broflakes something to keep them occupied.

In your feverish quest for an "amusing" putdown you managed to substitute 'gives' for 'keeps' , never mind , you might manage to be funny one day , then again probably not ....

Ah, so youve confirmed that for the likes of you , racism is a one way street.

1. What has that Guardian link got to do with the price of fish?
2. Trevor Sinclair is not a racist, as you claim, unless you can find more substantial evidence than you've provided
3. Does this mean that everyone that makes a racist or a fascistic statement is automatically a racist or a fascist? If so, you're a racist and a fascist.

basing it on history, usually.

 

[Springal]

Actually I can't even be bothered

Eh? No I'm pointing out that loads of racists are given airtime on TV.

 

[spence]

Ron Atkinson resigned after making an off air racist comment was facing the sack anyway.

Andy Gray said a sexist comment off air and was sacked.

A black ex footballer said a racist remark and gets his old job back ?

 

[Baker lite]

I bet He voted to leave the EU,I just bet.

Which really means even you realise its indefensible.

So going by your conclusion thenJohn Terry isnt a racist either ??

bollox , if it was the likes of ron atkinson or john terry you'd have something to say.

Far be it for me to defend Terry, who I find a boorish oaf, but I think you do him a disservice by conflating the two (on the evidence of the two incidents you are alluding to). I find Terry's alleged comment, in the heat of a moment (it is quite a similar allegation to what Sinclair was convicted of - his only weak defence is being drunk) far MORE defensible / ambiguous than Atkinson's.

Atkinson, speaking calmly and candidly, effectively suggested that black footballers were stupid, lazy and unreliable. There was literally no way any position in football, or football media, was tenable for him after that.

As far as I know Farage has never said anything racist. Saying you want to control your borders has never been racist.
