Why doesnt he just retire then?

Im sure he has enough cash

posted on 5/4/19


I take the view that football, like comedy has been of our best forces against racism.

Yes, there are isolated incidents and it's clearly more of an issue in the southern hemisphere of the continent - but this is a societal problem that just happens to rear its head in football stadiums from time to time.

1) UEFA & FIFA don't do enough to tackle racism within stadiums. Fines are pointless, give them a ban or point deduction, make them play behind closed doors.

2) It isn't UEFA & FIFA's responsibility to sort out racism in countries with deep seeded issues. It's a cultural thing and if politicians don't have this high on their priority list, there's not much football governing bodies can do.

3) Rose is a prat. He said he spends more on a night out than what people are fined (usually around £15k), yet has the cheek to turn his back on the sport that gave him that lifestyle.

Because he’ll harp on about how he can’t wait to leave it all behind whilst collecting his £3m a year wages or what ever he gets.

Any racial abuse nowadays in this country is dealt with swiftly and the idiots “a very small minority” are punished severely.

Example - a drunk irish idiot abused a family at the recent Liverpool v AC Milan legend game and was escorted out, arrested, up in court and convicted by the Monday morning. He was then subsequently banned for live from Anfield, that is action.

We can’t do anything about the penalties handed down by FIFA or UEFA so he should retire from international football if he feels that way.

"We can’t do anything about the penalties handed down by FIFA or UEFA so he should retire from international football if he feels that way."

Would be a good protest.

It would be good to see FA's from different nations get together on the issue with EUFA to try and put a plan for resolution in place. There isn't much done between nations.

The sort of thinking that is very scary to me. If you genuinely think it is a small minority, then you need to go out there. This country hides racism better than any other country I know- it is done very covertly to make idiots like you think it is only a " small minority" right now, it is factual evidence black children are 168x's more likely to be permanently excluded from school than a white British girl. Wake up and smell the coffee

yaya toure has come out and said the action taken against racist abuse to players is a joke, he doesn't even play anymore so what is he supposed to retire from? the fact it happens around Europe shouldn't stop players taking offence just because it doesn't happen as much in the country they play in

Disillusioned because of a tiny minority of idiots and an incredibly few incidents..

He needs to get a grip.

There's no place for racism in the game, but you cannot legislate for every individual in a crowd of tens of thousands. Football - any competitive event in an arena - invokes primal instincts.

Racism in football grounds will end when football ceases to be a sport.

Fack me, what an unforgiving bunch - you can tell the people who have never experienced any real prejudice on here.

I don't personally see racism within the country, maybe it's that I don't associate myself with racist people.

Absolute nonsense. That's because black children are 168x more likely to do something deserving of it.

Deprived White Children are the least likely demographic to be accepted into university.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Are you for real?

You actually think their skin colour is linked to their propensity for bad behaviour?

That is probably the most disgusting comment I've ever read on here. Absolutely outrageous.

5 I can believe. 10 maybe. To black children are 168x more likely to do something more deserving of a punishment is nigh on stupidity.

And yes, white working class boys are at the bottom when it comes to GCSE attainment- I did it for my dissertation. What is your point? we are talking about black racism here, if you want to talk about white working class boys, I am also happy to say why that is a disgrace. This is not a us against them situation FFS.

"positive discrimination" and racism is a very fine line, and one I feel we have actually got wrong at times in this country.

spot on.

Rose is being a bit daft though. He's complaining from an incredibly privileged position about a very marginal issue.

Im assuming you're a white male? That's why you don't see it as much.

No you drama queen, the same could be said for white children as well, the poster specifically mentioned black children which I was responding to.

Don't make comments like that and then call me a drama queen.

"That's because black children are 168x more likely to do something deserving of it."

This clearly suggests that children with black skin are more likely to behave badly. If you didn't mean it that way then you need to sort that out, because this is blatant racism.

There is a petition right now, I believe the study is there. This is there in black and white for all to see- the other day an Oxford graduate- white female, attacked her boyfriend and stabbed him. The judge ruled she should not go to prison because she is "too bright." That made the rounds, however if anyone here thinks this is not also evident in our primary, secondary and college education, I say again, wake up and smell the coffee.

If he can’t complain about it now after being racially abused just a couple weeks back then when can he complain?

This isn’t the first time either it’s happened to him and it’s certainly not the first time it’s happened to others.

He’s spot on the authorities don’t take it seriously enough especially fifa/uefa.

Yep.

Add to that the numerous studies and experiments with CVs and 'foreign' names or pictures.

Exactly the same CV gets different treatment based on the photo or the name.

No, I said black children are more likely to do something deserving of punishment than white British girls. Girls are generally a lot better behaved. calm down
