Keogh is an Irish surname - we can assume from this he has Irish family -hence the reason he has the option to play for ROI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlfonzoBurlonzo Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I cannot even believe we are having this conversation. Paul Ince is Tom's father of course he's a dhead. Before he came to Derby he had a bit of a reputation for having a slight attitude problem, and Tom Lawrence gets exactly the same treatment as Ince did. It's not a race thing - it's completely ridiculous. We have many players of different races in our side and you pick out the two players who get some stick and put a racism sticker on it.

Sorry, I obviously am an unconscious racist because I can't listen to that self-obssessed idiot bleating about how life has been so unfair to him but pretending he is looking out for other people. PS its a complicated issue as the press only give the view it thinks its readers want to hear. So the story is about a player (most of us haven't heard of) who doesn't 'deserve it', getting paid ridiculous amounts. I recall a story where (white) Stephen Ireland was getting derided for having all the bling and the car with his initials stitched in the seats etc. And what about Jack Rodwell raking in millions for doing nothing, or Tevez getting paid while playing golf for a year. Players who are seen to 'work hard' deserve positive stories (the public feel) for making the most of their talents. So the perceived wisdom is that Foden is (more famous) and against the odds is breaking into a team full of internationals. So on the surface it isn't a story about colour. Whether underneath all this there is in some people's minds a predetermined bias against black players motivations/attitude would seem clear..it is how widespread that is that is hard to tell.

I do believe some black players can be victimised no matter what they do. A player formerly of our parish Tom Ince copped a huge amount of flack due to, supposedly, being lazy & surly, despite the fact he was one of our most consistent performers while he was here. Just because he didn't run around the pitch beaming from ear to ear, people had the perception he had an attitude problem. Another reason is because of his dad who didn’t help matters by being arrogant by saying Tom rejected Inter Milan and Monaco, claiming he was better than James Rodriguez. I liked Tom though but the criticism of him by none Derby fans stems from his dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very sad to see and hear I might as well post this here as anywhere..... There a few on here who keep slagging off scousers, and making reference to a supposed scouser victim culture. That is barely a gnats-rooster from the kind of attitudes which are overtly racist. I find those comments quite nauseating, particularly since the victim culture was a label thrown about by boris johnson in the post-hillsborough tory backlash. And yet some folk on here seem quite happy to pick up on it. Its not banter. Its not amusing. Its as offensive as any racist slur. after watching some of the video of hillsborough, it has to be observed that liverpool fans seemed to have behaved very well. Even when the imfamous gates were opened the fans streamed in in an orderly and controlled fashion. Fans in the upper tier lifted their fellow supporters to safety. Fans at the front implored the Police to help. Fans on the pitch raced to fetch makeshift stretchers and rush the injured to get medical attention. In the aftermath the victim families have spoken out with great dignity. Not sure what prompts the negative attitudes towards these people. Nowadays we are witnessing calls to reinstate the terraces in order to improve the atmsosphere; in order to allow people to bounce about and shove into one another and enjoy the experience of being in a mobile mass of humanity. There is a new affluent hedonistic yobbishness fuelled by booze, football, and significant disposable income. I fear we are heading towards another accident waiting to happen. And when it does, who will be the victims then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
