I wasn't the guy on here getting aggressive and complaining about how difficult it is to be discriminated against, we all know what happened after that. My Neice is happy in here life, we keep it as simple as possible and try to protect here from those who would discriminate................ But she's only disabled so it's easy to forgive and forget..............cunts.
You're obviously upset about your neice and that's laudible, she's lucky to have somebody to stand up for her.
Park Ji-Sung and Son Hueng-min are both Asian. Korea is in Asia
Assumed he meant British Asians
SBA should raise the roof every time he touches the ball on Saturday.
Don't patroninse me. He called someone a spastic. It aint rocket science. I dont need anyones help on here, thanks though.
I thought a korea was something you looked for when you left school !
Fantastic post.
Just take a break from here mate.
fucking fuming mate, it's unreal what's acceptable and what's not.
Yeah, as SlowerThanPlatt says I was referring to British Asians, and to be more specific south-east Asians. The 2011 census has the South East Asian population in Britain at 6.1%, compared to the Black British population at 3%. Latest figures I can find suggest that 25% of players currently playing in the top four divisions are black, or of black heritage, which is obviously huge compared to the number of British Asians named in this thread.
will have to re-read later, need to get out of this shit hole
Oh, OK I read the comment as the lack of Asians in professional football being odd.
Agreed, but take 5 minutes out, no ones having a pop at you, someone was out of order, but has apologised, have the grace to accept it at face value.
Has culture got something to do with it, I know a few indian lads who are really into Hockey and others into their cricket, it appears that football isn't that popular with them historically.
When sports people / celebs etc get pulled up for racist tweets etc they apologise simply because it's been made public. They've been caught. Would they have come clean and apologised simply because it had been nagging away at them for years and they wanted to make everyone aware of something they had said in the past, even though it may have been buried and almost forgotten ? The answer is no.
Most of the Asian kids I went to school with were football mad (I'm talking late 2000s/early 2010s here), in fact our lunch time match used to be Asians vs. everyone else as a quick way of sort the teams (not as dodgy as it sounds). Like others have said I think it must be a cultural thing with family pressures to get into more secure careers, but we also had plenty of really talented Asian lads playing and I think of a single one who was ever scouted, while the list the white lads who did is countless.
Fair point, but equally bad are the trolls digging up stuff said years ago and reposting it to score cheap points and 'out' them. We keep saying we want racists to be educated and not simply driven underground, if we suppress that and continue to create divide then it's not helpful. If it's really abhorrent they should be called out for it and then allowed to move forward. If it was misplaced banter then no repeats and should be consigned to history. I doubt many of us are the same as we were 5, 10, 20 years ago - whatever it takes to make us learn and I'm sure we've all done or said things that we aren't proud of.
It's an interesting conversation and I don't want to get on dodgy ground but not even a single player of note has come out of the whole of India. Bright looked like Cristiano Ronaldo over there.
They just don't have the infrastructure over there, combined with the fact that cricket is the national sport. Football is hugely popular as a spectacle I believe, but there is next to no actual footballing infrastructure to take advantage of it.
Why because he has a disabled family member and finds the word spastic disgusting as do I.
No i told him to take a break because he was getting stressed
