Alph Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Black Lives Matter. Take the knee. More black people on broadcasts. Kick it out. Football is against racism Which is why it's punished Ondrej Kudela's racist abuse by stopping him playing 10 football matches. That's how against racism football is. That's such a brutal punishment. He'll never do it again now. Thankfully he will miss more games than the racially abused guy who will miss 3 games. Kemar Roofe gets 4 matches for a dangerous tackle. Slavia Prague have taken the punishment rather well. But it's so great that football backs up it's big talk of equality and fair play and respect etc etc. 10 football matches. That's kicking racism out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 If that's the case, then if a Rotherham player is found guilty of racism, they would be back playing in 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only a bit of racism. We care just enough to never stfu about caring but not quite enough to actually make a real effort to "kick it out" "Ask it to calm down" doesn't have the same ring to it, does it? Ivan Toney was spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Wouldn’t a fan get a lifetime ban if they were found guilty of racial abuse from the stands? At the very least, they’d get banned for a season or two. Players should get a similar punishment. No room for those sort of characters in our game.

So if you're racist on here then David should prove the forum does not tolerate racism and stop them posting for 10 days. If you're a racist policeman then you're banned from policing for 10 days It's brutal but football doesn't tolerate racism, or homophobia or anything that brings the game into disrepute.

Just makes a mockery of the whole thing doesn’t it... suppose we shouldn’t really expect any better from the footballing authorities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kicking racism out! To be fair, the gestures before kick off are very much player-led. I know authorities have been involved at various points, but taking or not taking the knee is decided by the players, who I don't think you could say are hypocritical. Mind you, I have no idea why we've replaced one 'gesture' of taking the knee with another by standing on the touchline before kick off. No idea what that move is trying to achieve.

No I'm not saying players are hypocrits. More the 'play' from football that it's united against racism. It loved to make a big deal out of players doing it but as Ivan Toney said... what's the point? And making a guy stop playing a game for a few weeks is exactly why it's pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 I'm guessing Lacazette thinks being racist deserves more punishment then. 10 games. And they won't even reflect on how full of poo they are. They'll probably punish Lacazette for this. Can't bring the game into disrepute. "Kick it Out" ??

Millenniumram Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Love the “#EqualGame” going round the advertising boards in that image. Yeah, it’s all very equal. Get caught betting? Season long ban mate. Racially abuse the opposition? Quick slap on the wrist will do you fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the case of Trippier, they tried to ban him because someone he knew bet in his transfer destination. Is he not supposed to let a single person know in case they win on a ludicrous market offered by betting companies? Way worse than racism though.
