The truth remains the truth.

My post didn’t mention racism.

He's brave too. Always shows for the ball and will keep trying to make things happen. Good close control too. The fact that he scored 18 league goals from a wide attacking area last season and still has improvements to make shows how many problems he causes.

he's not the most talented finisher but he keeps on putting himself in those positions. most people would hide.

he's spot on about how the media treat a white kid buying a house versus a black kid.

Nah

I mean, that isn't even unconscious or unintentional is it?

Stan is a @#%&! but he, and Sterling who highlighted this, are spot on.

One has started thirteen times for city, one hasn’t. Stan “Chip on shoulder” Collymore? You credulous £#%&!ing arseholes.

I would not deny any of that.

Some actual examples of racism in the press so you can compare and contrast.

“Ooh it’s so subtle you can hardly tell. But we can tell because we’re dead clever and can read the minds of journalists”.

Get some perspective.

Foden hasn't started 13 games for City. He hasn't even started a single league game I don't think.

Appearances. Includes as sub.

He was on for a minute against us, that's one of those.

Yeah that's just appearances. He hasn't started a league game, just come on thirteen times so far.

He's clearly the bigger talent of the two, but they've actually each started the same amount of games for City. Five, all of them in the cups.

Dunno what the situation was when each piece was published, but the difference really isn't big in that respect.

So what?

It’s irrelevant anyway. What evidence is there of racism? What’s racist about apart from a tortured analysis that imputes motive on no evidence. What evidence is there that there is even a ‘disparity’? Do you expect them to run exactly the same story with different names?

That was enough

And neither place is actually Cannock.

Could explain much.

Born in Stone but moved there as a kid I think.

There's evidence of them being treated very differently. People think race plays a part. Is it an outrageous suggestion?

So what? It’s still Idiots believing stuff with no justification and you’re digging me out for highlighting the fact that they’re talking shit?
