Clark Carlisle documentary

Did anyone see the Clark Carlisle documentary on BBC3.
Is football racist?

I watched it last night and felt a sense of chewing the chewed.
There was nothing I hadn't seen or heard before.

However it does seem there are still some forms of discrimination as highlighted in the program


What say you ?

There must be books somewhere on Liverpool and the chip on their shoulder. It's a perception - rightly or wrongly - which a lot of people have.

Dodging the question I see. You're a cowardly idiot that's why. Easy to whisper the accusations but you'll not lay them right there in the open because you're a coward.

I saw the documentary, I had an open mind about it, after all, this is the man that represents a lot of people, he's part of the kick it out campaign isn't he? He should know what he's talking about, right? Before he makes comments and starts casting dispersions about clubs, players, teams and the game?

It appears not, you'd have thought he would already have done his homework, as it's part of his job to represent people.

For someone who wants to help get rid of abuse in the game, for someone who wants to promote tolerance, he was quite judgemental and very ignorant, although he did learn some stuff by the end of the program.

I thought it was a poor documentary myself, over such a big issue they could've done much better with the airtime that it got.

There were 96 victims at Hillsborough you moron

Lads why bother trying to have a debate with this neanderthal. He should be a Utd fan.

Interestingly, the police have now been involved over rio ferdinands twitter comments.

There is also an interesting audio discussion in the side notes for that article, worth listening to.

Talking of Spurs, the documentary featured the word Y*D that is quite ofter heard at their games.

Should this world still be acceptable although it may be claimed that it is used in a non racial context and more a form of unification by Spurs fans
