How come there isn't a thread for this ?

Is it because they've revealed their true colours, excuse the deliberate pun.

Folk were warned re their true intentions, but as always called racist by the naive.

Jamie Vardy showing a fair turn of pace. A wonderful attribute that forms the basis for a number of his goals. Wonder if that's OK, or to be avoided too?

It’s pathetic really is 

organisations just running scared

Thing is, you probably wouldn't even notice if they stopped saying those had they not written an article about it

I would struggle to describe Traore's performance against us for Boro as anything over than powerful though

Yeah I get that probably wouldn’t get picked up, but why is it being brought up now I just think companies/organisations are just scared

A change fro the oft used 'pace and power' wouldnt go amiss. Physically superior, athletically supreme, whatever. Trouble is, looking at the report, it seems any such references are unacceptable. 

From what I've read on here about coaching etc, it seems that clubs do like young, strong/quick players so its perfectly reasonable to comment about that attribute if players are utilising it.

Interesting that no one can comment on the tweet. Are they afraid of the replies they may get? Is that what the kids call ‘cancelling’?

Another shit bag organisation

I'd not say afraid. Its just obvious that the racists would be all over it.

It's not hard to find them having their say on it though. Quite a few saying maybe Diversity's next dance should depict black lads going round stabbing folk. Lovely.

I'd say the 15,000 complaints to Ofcom was more more of an attempt at "canceling".

Just a bunch of blokes prancing about on a reality show when all said and done though 😂

Nearly 22,000 now. Everyone has a voice.

Indeed.

I'd say its a safe bet that a large percentage of that 22,000 never even watched it.

I'd say not.

I'd also say most gammons won't watch it though. Some complaints from snowflakes, some from moderates.

What sort of people send racist abuse over a dance routine ?  There are some very warped individuals in our society. Well done to ITV for sending out the message of support.

Must be sent from abroad, we don't have a problem with it here

Maybe I am being a bit thick but from the few pictures I have seen of it (didn't watch it or seen any clips) I don't quite understand what folk are complaining about?

It’s all subjective mate like alot of the stuff in this country. We’re you offended by the Colston statue in Bristol? Words to rule Britainnia? 
 

this is the problem there will always be someone somewhere offended by everything. Where do we draw the line. 
 

They should just let bernard manning do a set for the half time entertainment this week to reciprocate.

1-1 then innit.

Aye I see what you mean. But what the hell got so many people angry enough to formally complain about a dance routine?

I only watched it to see what the issue was and I have to say it wouldn’t have annoyed me 6 months ago. I just now think it was provocative and shouldn’t have been allowed. It was allowed because if they had stopped it the show would have been accused of being racist. It’s gone too far. Real problem is it’s only just begun. Long way to go yet sadly. 
 

same with Lewis Hamilton’s t shirt. We get the cause and her case is high profile but if he wants to wear that t shirt wear it in day to day life and put it on insta etc. don’t do it effectively at work. 

i am told that his employers weren’t aware what he was doing and are not happy.

What are they going to watch? They've boycotted the BBC as well haven't they?

Just perpetual reruns of Clarkson era Too Gear on Dave?

Someone needs to tell Toto then. He's been saying he has their full backing.
