Racism

Featured Replies

For anyone who thinks it's gone away and is no longer an issue in this country then please be aware of what happened at the BCL T20 final last night.

Farnworth Social Circle's professional,  a West Indian lad, put in a sublime performance and was taking Horwich RMI's bowlers to the cleaners. 

Unfortunately,  approx 3 or 4 runs from the end of the game,  one of Horwich's lads thought it acceptable to call him a "fucking monkey".

100 pager. Usuals be like a dog with 2 dicks 

Did he knock the remaining runs off?

He did, thankfully.

The racist skulked off and back doored it with his hood up before the trophy presentation.

There wouldn’t be any racism if we didn’t keep mentioning it.

I reckon this will be the post that gets Youri out of his brasso induced silence and back posting. 

He loves a good Horwich bashing. 

Will racism be playing any part in Truss being made favourite to be PM ahead of Sunak?

Yep

Did it all kick off?

Doesn't sound like it, if he's been allowed to skulk off, but I'm surprised.

Some of Farnworth's finest have been known to be running off a short fuse, and I'm sure cricketers are no exception.

No. His teammates didn't appear to try and defend him and presumably just told him to get his stuff and fuck off.

A couple of the Horwich players were saying afterwards he'll never play for them again. Rightly so.

It only happened a couple of minutes before Stuart hit the winning runs, so it was an ideal time for him to slip away while the FSCC lad were celebrating.

Did they not have a laugh about it at the bar before he skulked off?

 

Name and shame him and ban the fecker for life. 

Horwich RMI CC have now cancelled his registration, and said he'll never play for their club again.

Fair play.  You can't tar everyone in a team or club due to one person's actions. Sounds like they have acted swiftly in booting the guy out.

Good, he'll hopefully not be signed by any of the other local teams either

Can't ask for more than that.

There's some fucking morons about. WTF possesses someone to act like this? Must be as thick as fuck.

Unlikely 

My nephew plays in that league.  Describes the offender as a well known nob and nasty piece of work.

I spent a day at Bradshaw sat within speaking distance of his dad. After I’d passed a comment to my brother he shouted across something along the lines of, “You know fuck all about it!”

I responded, “Maybe not, but at least all these kids have learned some swear words from you!”

He spent the rest of the game chatting loudly to his group so all within 25yards could hear.

At the end of the game he walked past and thanked me for “the great banter”

What a prick!

At least we know the acorn didn’t fall far from the tree.

Take it this is the one that made the paper?
