I assume most people on here have read Campbell's claims that he would have been a longstanding England captain, if he were white.
What utter nonsense.
Of course, their may be instances of racial prejudice in the FA, there may not. Who knows?
Certainly not Campbell.
He's basing this purely on a chip on his shoulder, and has absolutely no evidence whatsoever for these claims.
Are we to assume that Wenger was being racist because he didn't choose Campbell as captain for Arsenal?
Is he really happy with insulting Shearer and Beckham, who many felt were excellent choices captain?
How arrogant does one have to be to believe that the only possible reason for not being made captain is due to prejudice. It's not conceivable, apparently, that he just wasn't a preferred choice?
Ignorant, offensive comments from Campbell.
He seems utterly deluded.
Sol Campbell talking absolute nonsense

Hi pot, meet kettle. He's black.
My point was that institutional racism is alive and well and I have proven it.
No one has said that there is no hope, no has said that generally thins are not better for black people in the UK and your embellishments are embarrassing.
There is only one person taking unrage with what others are writing and that would be you Winston.

"My point was that institutional racism is alive and well and I have proven it."
Congratulations. Given that no one was arguing that, that was an interesting choice of subject matter on your part.

Right, that'll be why you've replied for two days on a subject that you did not even recognise. Kudos. You're still wrong and there is not an increase in representation and that is due to institutional racism. If you cannot recognise the synergy between the two you should have internet access you ignorant fool.

May I just add, for what it's worth, pretty much every thread I have ever seen you on you have shown yourself to be an excellent and balanced poster. My insult generalised but I do feel you have been ignorant to the point of foolishness.
Dismissing evidence, failing to take on board points made about wider society around the world whilst desribing people view point as "nonsense" on more than one occassion is ignorant.
There is a good slice of hypocrisy as well given that you have been extremely patronising.
No offence.

I see you opted to throw a tantrum.
Nice one.
I was quite clearly trying to make a different point, and despite asking you for constructive suggestions (to move the conversation on), received nothing but irrelevant posts back.
I'm not wrong. I think you need to do a little more research, but perhaps start from the perspective that, invariably, there will be statistics to back up both viewpoints.
But then again, if you're going to argue something that no one even disagrees on, what hope do we have?

I'm afraid calling me an ignorant fool is where any attempt at reasoned conversation will end, so I will leave now.
Cheers.

Ignorantly foolish on this thread then.You're not institutionalised or anything.
"I was quite clearly trying to make a different point"
Why? You were responding to my posts not the other way round.

They are relevant by the way. You're also rather pretentious in my opinion. You won't think that you are but then that's the very nature of it. Not covering yourself in glory here and as said the only one taking umbrage is yourself. Tantrum indeed.
