Why not? What are you getting out of it? All you’re doing is making our club look like a bunch of *****. Plus you know full well it’s about to be taken down, and you’re about to get banned, anyway.

Indeed. What a lod of old bollocks this is.
There is a interesting article in the Standard tonight about a clothing house that has ripped of a painting to make a shirt design (it is a ludicrous bit of theft, without doubt) but the artist is moaning about theft from a 'queer black' artist. WTAF has the ethnicity and suxual preference got to do with anything?
In the case of CH, the sight of people claiming a racists agenda is beyond absurd. It is only because he is so well liked that his job security has gone unquestioned so long, and his skin tone has never ever been relevant. To suggest he is a victim because of his 'race'.....I am really angry about this for every possible reason.
As someone who deplores discrimination I am seeing people inadvertently undermining the fight against racists by this. Have these clowns never read the story of the boy who cried wolf? This simply plays into the hands of those who enjoy sneering at folk for "playing the race card", and "being offended on behalf of others"

You know full well this is going to be screen grabbed and going to go all over social media. But I guess that’s what you want.
Some sad ****er with too much time on his hands will probably call the police as well. Good luck with that. Can’t say you weren’t warned.

NSC could now be liable for legal action by Danny Baker's lawyers for
publishing a forged image of a highly offensive (and illegal) tweet.
You really have lived up to your username.

Barnes is clearly still sore about Crumplin marking him out the game twice!

Hopefully, you just mean his account.
Whilst agreeing with your post I also couldn't help remembering that Ron Atkinson, West Brom's manager at the time was later sacked as an ITV pundit in 2004 for making particularly offensive racist remarks which were accidentally picked up on his microphone and broadcast around the world. Commenting on the performance of Marcel Desailly Atkinson actually uttered the words: "He's what is known in some schools as a f*cking lazy thick n****r."
West Brom also famously held that black players v white players match for Len Cantello's testimonial at that same time (1979). At the time it was probably regarded by some as a positive step for highlighting the emergence and acceptance of black players, but it could also be viewed in a racist context and probably was by others. Whatever the case it certainly would never happen now.

I think you’re missing the point here. Would you post that on Twitter? Would you post it if this was your messageboard?
Is it really fair for you to post something like that on NSC, knowing the potential implications for Bozza?

I take your point and the 3 black players in question were commonly referred to as 'The three degrees' which would - rightly - be met with derision in the modern era. Atkinson is a strange one as he clearly promoted black talent whilst coming out with that lot. Different times which would be judged differently now but I'm sure West Brom were trying to do their bit even if we question the methods now.
Living reasonably local to West Brom I've seen articles in the local rag about the WBA basketball teams and wheelchair powerball. They clearly (or certainly did under the old owners) their bit for the community and are one of the better community clubs. I've also posted on here what were the reasons for Moores sacking were and its nothing to do with racial motivation which unfortunately doesn't suit the likes of Darren Lewis.
We are a bunch of racists. It's ingrained in us and it will never go away until circumstances make us equal.
And even then...
Okay, you win. I was wrong, but in my defence I don't think that you really got what I was trying to say. The picture has been taken down by a mod now and I hope that we can go back to the more usual, furious arguments.I don't half love you all!

I get what you were trying to say, and I wasn’t offended by it (whatever the **** that even means anyway), my point was that putting something up like that is asking for legal trouble for NSC, which isn’t fair.
