Sentiment is right but the part about fines being as much as he spends on a single night out makes him come across as a bit of a dick.

The point is there are millions knocking round in the game and teams get punished fuck all.

I thought he was very good last week for England.

I think if racism was 99.9% stamped out - then he wouldn’t be saying he wants out. And if some extra initiatives start to kick in maybe his comments will have contributed. 

Racism today is minimal. Wrong, but minimal. Think what Regis, Cunningham, Batson, etc went through. It was such commonplace that possibly it had less affect on these boys. Whereas the random token monkey chants in far flung reaches of the world stand out like a sore thumb in today’s game.

Agree. Just not sure how you can carry on at the top level for 5 years if you want out.

Perhaps he didn't portray his thoughts too well.

As city's manager has said- fight back at the cunts and don't let them win.

If Guardiola said that,then he’s been reading this forum or listening to Mick Brown too much ....

Strachan has a point, if folk were to shout stuff at Johnson from the terraces, stuff like; Paedophile! nonce! perv! slot-badger! two pin din plug! bush dodger! small bean regarder! unabummer! nut administrator! bent ref! crazy world of Arthur Brown! fence foal! free willy! chimney bottler! bunty man! or shrub rocketeer! then it'd be just another form of racism.

Look at the case with Padiham FC at Congleton Town in a recent NW Counties match, Padiham keeper racially abused by a few nobheads, manager took the whole team off, they werer fined £165 for leaving the field of play, Congleton also fined  £160  for failing to control their fans and they were awarded 3 points as they were winning when the players walked off.Congleton claim the abusive fans were 'from another club whhose game had been postponed. What are folk supposed to do stay on the pitch and take the abuse?
