At least you know his name, you know who to complain about.

The articles i've been annoyed about were written by 'Sportsmail Reporter' a blatant cop out by the disgusting Daily Mail.

I've been trying to drum up support so people complain about them, please take a look at my article

Daily fail..

When we read about British footballers levelling complaints of racism against each other, it’s worth making the comparison with what passes as everyday behaviour in a nearby country we are often invited to admire.

It may or may not be that the charges laid by Manchester United’s Patrice Evra against Liverpool’s Luis Suarez are well founded. The same goes for the allegations by Anton Ferdinand of QPR against John Terry of Chelsea – although given Terry’s general level of conduct racial abuse of an opponent would be pretty ordinary stuff.
----------------------------
the daily fail, never one to let facts get in the way of a good rant. Ferdinand hasn't even made a complaint

and as for "although given Terry’s general level of conduct racial abuse of an opponent would be pretty ordinary stuff." so because he has cheated on his mrs he must be a racist? give me a damn break! it's annoying me and i'm not even a chelsea fan. how do the get away with writing this drivel?

"So, Mr Evra and Mr Ferdinand, I know you feel insulted. But perhaps in this case you could just put up with it and get on with the game."

the whole article was shocking, the last sentence takes the cake though. i should say though, i don't agree with branding these guys racists if nothing has been proved.

What do you expect from the Daily Mail.It supported Moseley's fascists during the 1930's and was an apologist for Hitler

Just to clarify, Anton Ferdinand hasn't levelled ANY accusations of racism at Terry's feet.

Someone decided he was a lip-reading expert and put some footage up of Terry swearing during his match against QPR, and again decided that he was making racist remarks in it. So put it up on Youtube with a dramatic "Terry being racist" style heading Then then media latched onto it with glee, when they got wind of it, and decided to run with it...

The "footage" isn't framed in any context, you can't even tell what he's saying, let alone who he is saying it to.

More shoddy, sensationalistic, frankly desperate journalism by England's "finest.

I commented on this topic yesterday and will re-post today:


A friend of mine on a well known social network stated during the game that Terry called Ferdinand a Black C***.

After seeing the clip again (slowed down) on You Tube he stated that he was 100% certain what Terry had said.

He has 30+ years under their belt reading lips. Not as a profession but in constant daily communication with others.

He also happens to be a Chelsea fan so I can see no reason not to believe him.
