Those fans abusing him on Saturday were older fans! Racism more likely to come from older fans I reckon. Old fashioned entrenched views. So many schools are multi-cultural now which is a massive help for anti-racism. Sadly when I heard racist shouts at Ashton Gate and reported it, nothing happened. All the other fans around me would have heard it and decided not to get involved. Makes me wonder how many times it is heard on Saturday afternoons. Probably more than we think.

Plus community service working with the communities that they have been so despicable about or working with organisations like Kick it Out around how their actions affect individuals, families and communities. Hopefully this will open their eyes and may even lead to reform of their ‘views’. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can but hope Leon, but from our own experience at the Gate, discrimination does unfortunately sometimes pass down through the generations!

Port Said Red Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 I think he is right about the newspaper articles that he has highlighted too. The language is sensational in one case and restrained in the other. One comes across as "how sweet and thoughtful", the other as "how extravagant and arrogant". I haven't read either article, but the headlines are all many people read and set the tone. "The story about Foden, who is white, has the headline: “Manchester City starlet Phil Foden buys new £2m home for his mum.” The story about Adarabioyo, who is black, has the headline: “Young Manchester City footballer, 20, on £25,000 a week splashes out on mansion on market for £2.25million despite having never started a Premier League match”.

Context. Two players with differing number of appearances. Two different articles written by two different journalists. The supposedly sensational article is written by a man who is not white.

I did consider that first point, but I don't feel that Foden has consolidated his place to the point that he could be considered anything other than a youngster. As for the other two points, I don't think the journalists formulate the headlines, that would be an editorial decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruffy the Janitor Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Interesting thread on twitter around the press attention that Sterling has received, really hammers home the bias against him over the years from the usual selection of rags.

The supposedly discriminatory article was about a player with zero appearances being able to buy his Mother a two million pound house. The journalist (non white) says that was the context. Lots and lots of money but nil appearances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PFA only donate £125k to Kick It Out annually, yet spent £70k on a box at Man City, £2m on a Lowry painting and Gordon Taylor was paid £2.29m last year. If the union that is supposed to be looking after the players isn't really backing the anti-racism organisations it shows the game still has big problems on the inside as well as the fans.

Undy English Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 The bloke's picture is plastered all over the media. Club and Police will have undoubtedly identified him by now. They need to make an example of this guy. Name and shame publicly. Ban for life. Reputational damage he'll never recover from and never be able to attend live football again.

AppyDAZE Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Just saw it on Youtube... Why? Just why? Embarrassing , and sad Never really thought much either way about the player, but i find that pretty upsetting. fair play young man for turning away from those scumbags.

Guest Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 All very well the likes of Henry Winter finally supporting Raheems voice but he still works for Murdoch and their sister paper the Sun continues to stir up the issue. Perhaps he should show his real belief and quit just like Colin’s murray did when Murdoch got hands on talksport. Its not the sole problem this country is divided and returning to levels of racism not seen since the 1970s but the press and media have to take a proportion of the blame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
