GboroRam Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 "Sinclair, who grew up in Manchester and made 82 league appearance for the Blues, was sentenced to 150 hours community service for a racially-aggravated public order offence and given a 20-month drink drive ban." I'm not sure what a 20-month drink drive ban means. Is he allowed to drive if he's sober? After 20 months, can he drink-drive again? https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/former-man-city-star-trevor-sinclair-admits-racially-abusing-police-officer-and-drink-driving/ar-BBHMzSP?ocid=spartandhp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not really racism anyway because that police officer on 25k has institutional power over the rich ex-footballer and white privilege etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they sacked two people for being white men and have advertised at least two jobs to non-whites so maybe they should sack themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Atkinson wasnt charged with any offence was he? Sinclair has been convicted of an offence so to be consistent I think there should be no question of him working for the BBC again. What happened to that DJ who objected to some fat person of a certain religious or ethnic persuasion being his boss ? Has he been sacked by the BBC yet?

But really , getting drunk, getting in a car , running over a lady and then calling the policeman who arrests you racist whilst making abusive racist comments yourself is as far from acceptable as you can get.

Indeed, and it has been dealt with according to law. Interesting that he himself had been subject to racist behaviour in the restaurant beforehand. I wonder if that person was dealt with too?

Nope. Just wanting people to question their own attitudes towards racism. In that respect I'm doing nothing different to Sting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are questioning people's motives of asking what an anti racism organisation within football has to say about an ex footballer being charged with racism? Wonder if that would be the case if the race of the people involved were the other way around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
