I've never been sure whether half-caste and coloured are meant to be offensive or not. I've definitely never heard them used anywhere near offensively, if a police asked me for someones description I'd consider half-caste to be perfectly acceptable to say. Same for handicapped, I'd even go as far as to say it's more polite than disabled.


Rent-boy isn't offensive, it's a job description. I'm sure our government would agree with this.

Bloody euphemism treadmill. Look at half-caste, coloured, cripple, and handicapped on there, they don't belong. And 'man up'? Sure, gender stereotyping, but offensive in only very specific contexts. And when did gypsy become a term of abuse?

Lists like these make me angry - not that people shouldn't be protected from offence, but that people choose to use them to offend, and be offended by them, in the first place.

I don't think the words themself are offensive, but they're archaic and the historic connotations they have mean you'll be painted as an ignorant bigot if you use them. It's why it's acceptable to say Brit but it isn't to say Paki.

Ladmate, do you know what wog means and where the "Western Orient" is pertaining to?

I mean, you're quite right in that it would be better than calling them a chink but that's only because you'd have to be a pretty shit racist to confuse the two. Or, come to think of it, a really good one; "they're all just fucking foreign to me".

There's nothing racist in using 'Bongo Bongo Land'. It says more about the people inferring that it's offensive. There must be people who spend their spare time Googling words to see if they have any negative connotations, no matter how tenuous, so they can explode and get offended on someone else's behalf if some unsuspecting soul uses them.

"Bongo Bongo land" is right out of the same dictionary as "fuzzy-wuzzy" or "jungle-bunny", a long-established piece of classically racist language dating back at least a hundred years or so. Essentially it comes from a faux-ignorant position of lumping places like Sudan and Ghana all into the same pot because "they all look alike and their names all sound the same".

>Bloom was ejected from the Mansion House in 2009 for heckling Lord Turner for giving staff a bonus after the massive regulatory failure of 2008/9. According the Daily Telegraph he was the first man to be ejected since John Wilkes in the late 18th century. Bloom also signed the petition in disgust at the knighthood for the failures of Hector Sants
>In October 1992 Bloom launched a campaign to help people avoid mis-selling of pension schemes. It was very warmly welcomed by the press, particularly the Observer. It was the very first indication of the problem. An employee tape of the advice was produced for all human resource departments as part of a redundancy package.
>Bloom claims that most MEPs have "little or no business experience" and do not understand the consequences of their actions.
>Bloom told an interview that, "no self-respecting small businessman with a brain in the right place would ever employ a lady of child-bearing age."[12] Around the same time, he said that "I just don't think [women] clean behind the fridge enough" and that "I am here to represent Yorkshire women who always have dinner on the table when you get home."[11][13] Bloom told BBC Radio 4's Today that his comments were "said for fun" to illustrate a more serious point, that equal-rights legislation was in fact putting women out of work.[11]
>Bloom was filmed at the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen congratulating the French for bombing the Rainbow Warrior, a Greenpeace ship, in 1985.

It's quite mild, really. In some of these you can argue he's right. However, I live in East Yorkshire and whenever he's in the local media he comes across like a complete knobhead.

On another note, from looking at the Wikipedia page history for their entry on Bongo Bongo Land it seems it was only created because of his comments. It's still awaiting a citation that it's derogatory and on speculation that the name comes from bongo drums.

Utter bollocks. You are posting absolute bollocks. Complete twaddle.

Jungle bunny is a racist American term from the 60's. Fuzzy wuzzy was a nickname for a Beja tribe that's no worse than referring to Germans as The Hun or Jerry during the First World War. If the term Bongo Bong Land is a 'long-established piece of classically racist language' then you should be able to easily prove it; it is not an antiquated term from the days of Are Empire.

I’m loath to enter Godfrey Bloom’s childish world of stereotypes (“Ukip MEP disparages women drivers, feminists … and mild-mannered men”, 21 August) but just to make a point I played in three consecutive rugby league Universities Athletic Union finals, am still involved widely in many sports, and also support the goals of feminism.

I admit I leave the toilet seat up, but my wife (probably known to Mr Bloom as “the little woman”) also refuses to conform to stereotype and never mentions it. Neither of us have knowingly had sand kicked in our faces.

Or the residents of the house you're staying in are male and apparently make godawful shits of such a reek that you can most definitely smell it hours after you know the toilet was last used? Admittedly their house isn't spotlessly clean and their toilets are a bit gross to begin with, but my housemate does it to my scrupulously clean toilet and the toilet always smells more when he's left the lid down on it.

Furthermore, the brush is not for cleaning shit out of the toilet. It's for scrubbing the toilet with once you've chucked a load of cleaner down it; the idea of using a toilet brush to rid a loo of stubborn skidmarks and then putting it back in the holder without first dumping it in a load of bleach makes me fucking shudder.

I bet you do that, don't you? You wipe your shit all over a toilet brush and then just put it straight back in its little holder, for your shit-germs to colonise and multiply among the bristles.

It's not really about Spurs fans saying Yid, it's about Chelsea fans doing gas chamber impressions.

You only have to look to Italy to see that it's a serious concern. Two Spurs fans were stabbed in Rome last year in an attack that the Italian police treated as an anti-Semitic incident. Paolo Di Canio is covered in fascist tattoos; In 2010 he attended the funeral of Paolo Signorelli, a fascist terrorist who had been convicted for his involvement in the Bologna massacre in which 85 people died.

There were clear historical links in Britain between football firms and groups like the National Front and Combat 18. Do you not remember when banana throwing and monkey chants were commonplace in British football?

Because the hairy and smelly of this world are very rarely beaten and shunned by society for being as such, and the Judeo-Christian culture in which we live has almost never gone out of it's way to condemn the smelly and hairy. And if the smelly and hairy are so maligned they can always think about having a shave or buying a new deodorant, whereas the homosexual can at best subject themselves to a futile and profoundly damaging "conversion therapy".

Backpage of the Daily Mail today is the headline that he called Tan a chinky. He handled it terribly, but you can't blame for Tan treating him the way he did considering the way Mackay squandered his money; £600k agent fees on a £600k transfer and authorising payments to agents when there's no actual evidence they were involved in the deal.

Do we know that this happened and hasn't been made up after the fact by Tan? It's just that if it is true then in effect you're asking us to have sympathy for a Bond villain. For some time the thinking had been that a miscommunication somewhere along the line was responsible for the supposed overspend, namely over whether the transfer budget included additional expenses or not.

In other news, Are Sol is considering standing for the Tories. I think he'll do anything to put off getting those coaching badges, which Sol seems to think are less important than race in actually securing a coaching job.

The veteran TV presenter said: "He's served his time. The rape and I am not, please, by any means minimising any kind of rape - but the rape was not violent. He didn’t cause any bodily harm to the person."

Judy went on: "'It was unpleasant, in a hotel room, I believe, and she was – she had far too much to drink. And you know, that is reprehensible, but he has been convicted and he has served his time.

"Now when he comes out, what are we supposed to do? Just actually refuse to let him do his job? Again, even though he has already been punished?"

Professional footballers are paid wages. They pay tax on those wages. They contribute towards merchandise sales, on which VAT is payable. They contribute towards a team performance that affects gate receipts. Even the silly money spent on transfers is taxed.

Either prisoners are rehabilitated and you let them integrate back into society or you just don't bother releasing them.

What Ched Evans did is no worse than Luke McCormick, current captain of Plymouth, who killed two children while driving drunk or Lee Hughes, who also killed someone driving and then fled the scene but has been welcomed back because he's got a good goalscoring ratio.

Alleged rapist. He still maintains his innocence and every discussion I've seen on the matter thinks it's an odd case - Evans and his mate (another footballer) fuck a drunk lass and when she wakes up the next day, naked and confused, she can't remember whether she consented or not. Evans is found guilty but his mate, who did the exact same thing to her, is acquitted.

Either way, he's served his sentence and should be able to work for any football club which chooses to employ him.

I can't say whether or not he really is innocent, but certainly either his conviction was highly questionable or the other guy got away with rape. By the admission of everyone involved, both defendants and the victim, there wasn't room to get a fag paper between what the two of them each did in that hotel room.

More importantly, as you say his conviction stands and his sentence is deemed served. It's time to let him get on with his life.

From what I've read the issue in this case is that she simply couldn't remember. She was known to have an issue where getting drunk would lead to memory loss; in this instance the CCTV footage and blood tests have confirmed in she wasn't so drunk that she couldn't function or not give consent. That's why the morning after she was distressed and confused about waking up alone and naked in a hotel room - she couldn't even remember the definitely consensual sex she had with the other player.

Yes. The chronology was apparently that the other one had met her while out drinking, they went back to the hotel, then had more drinks after Chedwyn arrived. The other only guy got off because his lawyer crafted reasonable doubt by arguing that sex was possibly in mind before they got back to the hotel. Otherwise he too would have found himself convicted on what was effectively a technicality.

>The Professional Footballers' Association of Ireland has come to the defence of convicted rapist and former Sheffield United footballer Ched Evans, suggesting that he could be innocent and that, even if guilty, he deserves a chance of redemption.

>The association's solicitor Stuart Gilhooly wrote an article on its website that refers to Evans' crime as alleged, despite the fact he was found guilty in court in April 2012 of raping a 19-year-old woman in a hotel room in Rhyl, North Wales and sentenced to five years in prison.

>"This crime, as alleged, was at the bottom end. There was no violence and thankfully the victim has no recollection of it. This, I hasten to add, does not make it right, or anything close to it, but it is nonetheless a mitigating factor. It's not easy to muster up too much sympathy for Evans but there is surely nothing worse than being accused of a crime which you genuinely believe you didn't commit. The argument against that is that a jury convicted him of the crime. The same applied to the Guildford Four and the Birmingham Six. They got no public sympathy either. Maybe he is guilty or perhaps he's innocent, none of us knows for sure. Surely, either way, he deserves a chance at redemption. Don't we all?"

Mate, he RAPED* someone. It's evidently the worst crime imaginable in our society, as a player who killed two children was allowed to play again upon release from prison without even a tenth of the furore of this case.

* I fully expect him to win his appeal, I don't see how you can say beyond a reasonable doubt that she didn't consent if she doesn't remember either way. The report on CrimeLine suggests that the jury were directed to believe that someone who is drunk couldn't consent and also having no memory of the events meant she couldn't have consented.

After hiring Malky before the enquiry into his sexist/homophobic/racist comments, Dave Whelan has told the Graun he believes “Jewish people chase money more than everybody else. I don’t think that’s offensive at all” and the word “chink” is not offensive, and that he used to say it of Chinese people when he was young. “If any Englishman said he has never called a Chinaman a chink he is lying,” Whelan said. “There is nothing bad about doing that. It is like calling the British Brits, or the Irish paddies.”

I get there's a bit of a hoo-hah in some quarters about using Paki, even though it's just like using Brit, because of skinheads going around twatting Pakis but I'm not aware of any similar connotations for Chink.

You'll have to bear with me; I didn't grow up in an enriched area nor do I spend my time finding tenuous links to racism so I can get offended on other people's behalf, so I'm not up to speed with my racist vernacular.

Chink and chinky are holdovers from the institutional racism of Imperialist Britain. Paki is synonymous with racism and is used as a racist slur in all corners of the UK.

Context is important, obviously, but you are a sheltered and criminally misinformed individual who I doubt uses these terms in front of Chinese/Pakistani people so your feigned indignation can take a run and jump.

Tumblr is the hive of "I've never been personally affected by this but nevertheless it's a disgrace" wankery you're thinking of. Twitter is just for mass collective circle-jerking easier.

It's actually quite disgusting in its own right the amount of people on there, usually perfectly normal middle class white girls, who claim to have all kinds of weird made up mental defects and/or disabilities so that they can wear the shield of victimhood, and take up the role of an online justice crusader for things that they really have a tragically limited understanding of.

This particularly annoys me about your Johann Hari types. They have this vision of the working class as being incapable of defending themselves on any sort of intellectual level. Hari had a good old moan about mocking chavs, because it meant mocking what he perceived as the working class; he really had no fucking idea what he was talking about.

The morality of using the word 'Paki' is a thoroughly middle-class concern. A working class person shows they're not racist by treating people the same no matter their colour, whatever words they use; a ruling class person never shows they are racist, but helps or hinders an ethnic group however they see fit, without oversight. The only impotent middle class grizzles about morality.

Can you actually prove that black people are especially adept at picking cotton? I don't recall the ships sailing to Africa because they were informed 'shit, lads, these brown folks' ability to pick cotton is off the scale! We must take them to our plantations in the colonies.'

Jewish people are so good at managing money that they rule the world. If black people were so fantastic at cotton picking then where is the legacy and why isn't their a vast black cotton picking empire now? There's nothing to show for it.

If a black man adopted by Jewish parents can't make a lighthearted remark about blacks and Jews then who can?

David has said in the past that Victoria and he discuss what they're going to write in their Graun columns, mainly so they don't end up covering the same topic. It's not exactly a great leap of logic to presume that Victoria, a woman of Jewish descent and who almost certainly wears the trousers in their relationship, harangues him into writing about this incident, such as Jews are prone to do at the merest whiff of anything they, often erroneously, construe as antisemitism.

The 'looks like a Mexican' bit is, I suppose, the stereotype that Mexicans have big moustaches. Not particularly offensive.

The 'jumps like a black man' bit is obviously blunted when it's coming from a black man.

Like anything to do with political correctness, we're in the middle of a complicated set of social negotiations over what exactly is acceptable. Context and intent is crucial - I have no problem with my friends calling me a poof, but I wouldn't want someone shouting that word at me in the street. Football has chronic problems with ignorance, intolerance and bullying, so nobody in that world gets the benefit of the doubt yet. This incident needs to be seen in the broader context of the culture of professional football, where overt bigotry is unfortunately still commonplace.

I reckon either Hartlepool, Oldham or Tranmere have had a change of heart now things have died down rather than it being another club - probably Oldham as they gave Lee Hughes his second chance after prison. IIRC, Evans said if he doesn't find a club he'll start his own decorating business.

A rape conviction is on the same level as saying gay snake, chingalings, that you'd like a go on a pair of lovely falsies or referring to black Monopoly? I haven't mentioned the Jews, as stating the obvious that they're good with money is scientific fact.

I thought I'd look into Ched Evans as I didn't know anything about it, and admittedly I've only read his official website that is transparently attempting to get him off the charge, but I don't see how he could have been convicted if the facts of the case are as stated.

Firstly there's the obvious contradiction of both footballers having sex with the victim in the same instance and only one ending up branded a rapist.

Then the site makes a convincing case for how the woman was not drunk and incapable, given all the things she is shown doing on CCTV like paying for fast food, and the idea that she consumed more alcohol than it was testified she did is conjecture.

I suppose it hinges on her having no memory of the previous night and whether that constitutes being drunk enough to not be capable of consenting?

As I've been reading a biased website, does anyone know of one that 'makes the case for the prosecution', as it were?

>Firstly there's the obvious contradiction of both footballers having sex with the victim in the same instance and only one ending up branded a rapist.
This is the troubling part. There are two potential options here, both of which are thoroughly unpleasant. On the one hand, someone might have just had to go through having a rape conviction, with all the stigma that follows, without having really done anything wrong. On the other, we might have allowed a rapist to walk free. If there is a difference, it's because Ched arrived at the hotel while Clayton was in medias res. Bear in mind that by that point she hadn't had anything to drink since some time before buying the pizza.

>Then the site makes a convincing case for how the woman was not drunk and incapable, given all the things she is shown doing on CCTV like paying for fast food, and the idea that she consumed more alcohol than it was testified she did is conjecture.
IIRC the expert report submitted to (and accepted by) the court ran to the effect that the levels found in the alcohol tests were not consistent with alcohol-induced amnesia. The conclusion was that she was inebriated but not incapacitated. She was drunk enough that she had forgotten about the pizza, but not too drunk to walk back to the taxi and then into the hotel again unaided.

>I suppose it hinges on her having no memory of the previous night and whether that constitutes being drunk enough to not be capable of consenting?
The trial judge specifically directed the jury to the contrary. They were explicitly told that they were not to take her not remembering to mean that it didn't happen. Unfortunately, this rules out an appeal, because if everyone else has done their job properly then English law presumes that the jury must be right. His first appeal was turned down because the judge was spot-on throughout and all the evidence pointed to was available to the jury.

>As I've been reading a biased website, does anyone know of one that 'makes the case for the prosecution', as it were?
It was a high-profile trial, and so it was reported in considerable detail in the press at the time. You could do worse than trying to find the reporting from back then, which includes the hotel CCTV (showing both her entry and Evans turning up later).

The way they are treating Ched Evans is really making me angry. He did his time, whether he did rape her or not, he did his fucking time. What the fuck is he supposed to do now? Live under a bridge? Become homeless? How is he supposed to feed and clothe himself if he is cut off from society? What happened to rehabilitation? These cunts are a liberal version of ISIS.

Or, in common parlance, he's done his time. What you've described is common practice for pretty much anyone who has been in prison. Tariff typically set at around half-term (other than for lifers), and for serious offences a fixed-term or life licence afterwards. So he's not technically at liberty yet, but for all intents and purposes he's done his time. The rules on records refer to the sentence as handed down, so while he was out after 30 months, the relevant length was the original 5 years, so that will never fall off his record unless it's overturned.

Shouting for decisions to go in your favour (even when you really know it's a throw-in for the other team) to try and influence/pressure the officials, booing whenever one of the naughty boys (like Marlon) is on the ball even though you don't really care what they've been up to, trying to sing louder than the other lads, etc?

Another Oldham sponsor, ZenOffice, warned it would sever its five-year relationship with the club if the Evans signing went ahead.

A statement from the company said: “This partnership has been based on mutual respect as OAFC did share the same values as ZenOffice, based on family and community.

“ZenOffice do not agree that the current path OAFC are embarking on espouses these values. Therefore it is with much regret that ZenOffice would like to confirm that we will end our association with Oldham Athletic Football Club if the move goes ahead to sign Ched Evans.”

If they decided to carry on sponsoring the club and did nothing, then you're correct, they wouldn't be any worse off than before.

However by withdrawing their sponsorship and getting a load of media attention, then they've done more to gain recognition of their company than any conventional advertising campaign could ever do, and it's cost them exactly nothing.

Hull City’s Steve Bruce, has disclosed that he was one of the Premier League managers who contacted Oldham to give his support to their moves to sign convicted rapist Ched Evans.

Oldham pulled out of a deal on Thursday after a storm of opposition but Bruce said that he believed Evans should have been given a second chance. The League One club’s chairman, Simon Corney, had said three Premier League managers had offered him their support and Bruce confirmed he was one of those.

“I have to be honest and say yes,” said Bruce. “I’ve known Simon for a lot of years now. He’d looked at the case too. He was of the opinion to give the kid a chance. I can only say on behalf of myself, I know I might be upsetting people but there is a question of the rape and how he’s been convicted by a jury. When you look at the evidence, it is there for appeal.”

Evans was refused leave to appeal but his case is now going before the Criminal Cases Review Commission. Bruce added: “I’m a big believer that if you have done your time everyone deserves a second chance, we have seen footballers involved with accidents and being given a second chance.

“It’s a very difficult situation for everyone concerned. It’s a pity they could not have the appeal and get it over and done with. It has divided opinion, of course, and when you look at the case in detail and, I don’t think most people have really, because they have just seen Ched Evans as a convicted rapist, when you do look at the case and look at the evidence then certainly Ched has got a case. For me the appeal can’t come quick enough for Ched. It must be a frustrating and difficult time for him and I think the events of the appeal, for me, will see Ched be allowed to play football again.”

They should start giving new identities to rapists who served their time. It won't help Evans, but imagine the others it could help. Evans can't be the only one who faces hostility like this while searching for employment. Imagine your soon-to-be boss getting threatening phone calls about his family getting murdered and raped.

Besides, rape doesn't even mean the same thing it used to mean to me when I was younger. A crime to gasp about. Now it's about cunts waking up the next morning feeling slutty and bad about fucking someone and crying rape.

Just because Evans was a perpetrator of a crime at sometime doesn't mean he can't be a victim now.

The issue with Sol Campbell is that he has a history of crying racism when things don't go his way, such as accusing every club in the land of institutional racism for not hiring him as a coach when he couldn't be bothered to actually get the necessary qualifications or saying that the only reason he wasn't England captain is because he's black and the FA are a big bunch of racists.

>A Chelsea fan who witnessed a black man being prevented from boarding a train in Paris has defended the actions of the group, insisting they were singing about Blues captain John Terry and that other passengers were blocked from entry.

>Mitchell McCoy was one of around 40 or 50 Chelsea supporters on the train and he stated they were singing about Terry, who was banned for four matches and fined £220,000 by the Football Association in October 2012 for racially abusing Anton Ferdinand. In Terry's case, the regulatory commission stated that the Chelsea captain was "not a racist".

>The 17-year-old from Fulham in London told Press Association Sport: "I'm not in the video but I'm on the carriage. We got on the train and at the station where the man was trying to get on we stopped for a couple of minutes. He tried to get on and a few people were pushing him off because there wasn't much space on the carriage. You couldn't move. People were saying it was because he was black. It's not true at all. I personally think it's because he was a PSG fan. Obviously they didn't want him anywhere with us. That guy in the video tried to force himself on, so they pushed him off."

>A chant of "We're racist and that's the way we like it" is clearly audible on the video, but McCoy contended it was not about the passenger. He added: "That song was about John Terry. The only words I know is 'he's a racist, he's a racist' and I don't know the rest."

"Cultural Marxism" gets used loosely as a catch-all by right-wing bloggers and pundits for "anything I disagree with", in much the same way that "fascist" gets used by the loonier aspect of the left even when they're decrying people who are plainly not fascists. In both cases it's usually wise to just ignore the person who's slinging such terms - same with "wake up sheeple", "the Jews did (x)" etc.

That's not true though, research shows that people whose only interaction with PoC involves The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air are far more likely to be liberal and tolerant.

That's different. A cannabis-growing operation is organised crime and necessitates a raid. This is a footballer, not a career criminal yes yes ha ha and the kind of situation they seemed to have been preparing for seems over the top.

Oh please do fuck off.
I'm not currently growing, but I have done about 7 grows in my lifetime. Largest one was 16 plants. It was NOT organised crime. Know how much of it I sold? Fuck all. Know how much of it I smoked/used in edibles? All of it.

If someone were to kill themselves by ramming their car into a primary school, there would be rightful outrage. Suicidal people are quietly loathed in the rail industry, because of the immense impact that suicides have on the workers who have to deal with the aftermath. Drivers are the most severely affected and many never work again, but signallers, maintenance workers and police officers also suffer trauma. Can you imagine what it must be like to helplessly sit and watch while your vehicle kills someone? To spend a shift scraping someone's guts out of the wheels? To painstakingly document what happens to a human body when it is scattered over several hundred yards of track?

Being suicidal doesn't take away your moral compass, or your moral duty.

Taking a bunch of pills is massively dangerous and by that I mean it carries huge risk of failure and incurring organ damage. You also fail to consider that many suicides are impulsive.

>>6835
Driving into a school would more likely than not be pre-mediated and would be construed as intentionally causing harm. The last suicidal person (AFAIA) to behave that way on the rail network was condemned almost globally. Quite why anyone would pay deference to public outrage I don't know, especially when returning as defective the gift of life.

>To painstakingly document what happens to a human body when it is scattered over several hundred yards of track?
This (and perhaps other items in your list) seems like it'd be done by a specialist who chose the job.

Anyway, the opinions expressed above are akin to telling a homosexual or gender dysphoria sufferer to man up or to drone on about how the poor are bleeding the country dry with their fecklessness.

I'm loathe to link to the HuffingtonPost and especially to an article that uses the term "victim-blaming" in earnest, but this article fairly accurately expresses my visceral disgust at how people in this thread are using the absolutely most unfortunate in society to indulge their holier-than-thou tendencies.

You obviously haven't. The preferred hanging method for suicide is partial suspension, which caused unconsciousness and death through pressure on the vagus nerve and the occlusion of the carotid arteries leading to almost immediate loss of consciousness and death through cerebral hypoxia within about three minutes. No broken neck needed.

Such a great book.

>Autopsy findings in a hanging are straightforward. There’s a ligature mark that passes along the throat and elevates to the ears. Blood pooled in the arms and legs due to gravity leaves the extremities purple with “stocking and glove lividity.” If the victim’s face is paler than his torso, it was a tight noose, cutting off all blood supply to the head. He probably lost consciousness in a matter of seconds. If his face is flushed and purple, with pinpricks of blood in the whites of the eyes and in the gums, the noose was tight enough to stop blood return from the jugular veins but not tight enough to clamp off supply through the carotid arteries, which are deeper in the neck and harder to compress. He probably dangled there for a couple of minutes, the blood pressure rising in his head with each heartbeat, before he blacked out and then died. If somebody’s really botched a hanging, the noose obstructs no blood vessels at all but instead pushes the tongue up against the palate and causes a slow, choking death by air hunger. Suicides who manage to actually break their necks, the way a skilled hangman would, are rare. Those deaths are nearly instant. In my experience, electrical cords are the most common device used for a noose, followed by belts, and dog leashes.

Young footballers at the English Championship club Brighton and Hove Albion are being trained in the law and ethics surrounding sexual consent.

The club is the first to provide the training and counselling to all its young male and female players.

In 2013 four current and former Brighton players were cleared of sexual assault charges at the Old Bailey.

Grieving footballer Rio Ferdinand has been trolled on Twitter by John Terry fans following the tragic death of his wife. The QPR defender lost his 34-year-old spouse Rebecca to cancer on Friday evening following a short battle with the illness.

Chelsea captain Terry was involved in a race row with Ferdinand's brother Anton, which led to a chequered relationship between the former England centre-back team-mates.

Moments after the former Manchester United defender announced the news, one user tweeted: "Rio accused an innocent man of racism - it's karma."

It's in Rio's autobiography. Moyes banned low fat chips at Old Trafford within the first week or so of taking over, so Rio had a massive teary which led to him spending the whole of Moyes' reign undermining him and trying to get other players to do likewise.

>One video begins with the three players stripped naked and cheering as they carry out sex acts with the women. Hopper then appears to use a mobile phone to film them having group sex together. Laughing and doing a running commentary over the footage, he is heard saying: “Go on that love” before pouring out a string of abuse.

>Afterwards the three watch the women indulging in lesbian sex acts. Filming them amid laughter, one of the men is heard off-camera saying: “Come on ... you slit-eye.”

>In another clip Hopper, 21, cruelly tells one of the women she is “f***ing minging… an absolute one out of 10”. Pearson or Smith is then heard off-camera shouting: “Oi Hops, I’ll swap you.” The video ends with Hopper and Pearson high-fiving each other as if celebrating a goal while romping with two of the women.

It really isn't something racial I think. In my university library, it looked like people segregated along racial lines, but if you listened closely, you would realise that it is segregation along cultural lines. The black Londoners and their ridiculous accent/dialect used to sit together, all the posh twats sat together, the Pakis from the Midlands sat together and hated the other Pakis from the south, and so on.

Maybe we will get a more mixed bunch of people sitting at the same table if minorities were dispersed around the country, and represented in each class. This will probably take some time naturally.

>A transcript of the conversation between Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema and a friend discussing an alleged sex tape of his France team-mate Mathieu Valbuena has been released, in which the striker appears to explain how he tried to negotiate with Valbuena could stop the video from being made public.

>French radio station Europa 1 released a transcript of a 20-minute conversation that Benzema had with a close friend on 6 October while he was with the French national team at their training base in Clairefontaine.

>Benzema said that he has told Valbuena: "If you want the video to be destroyed, my friend will go and see you in Lyon.” Benzema added that Valbuena thought it was a joke, before saying: "I don't think he's taking us seriously.”

>Benzema then told his friend how he convinced Valbuena that it was not a joke, and explained that Valbuena could be identified in the video by his tattoos. "I told him: 'I can help you out. You have to see this guy. You have my word that there are no more copies'", Benzema continued. "If you want the video to be destroyed, my friend will go and see you in Lyon and you can sort it out with him directly.”

>"But can you see my tattoos in the video?" asked Valbuena, to which Benzema said he replied: "You can see everything.” Benzema is also believed to have revealed that he saw the alleged video a week before joining up with the French side.

>The Real Madrid striker then tells his friend that Valbuena started to panic over the conversation, before Benzema added: "You can do whatever you want. Ok, If you don't want to pay, it's your life but I have warned you.”

Many footballers aren't far off being overgrown children and the French national team are notorious for infighting and petty squabbles, but this is a new one.

Karim Benzema plays for Real Madrid and I read he's on about £150k a week after tax so it cannot be about the money. The three theories I've heard are:

• Benzema is involved with French-Algerian gangsters, either they're blackmailing him or he just wants to show he's a hardcase.

• There's something utterly sordid on the video which would be extremely embarrassing for Valbuena, far worse than getting rimmed by Thai hookers.

• Benzema is just really, really stupid.

It's not "politically incorrect" to tell gay people they're no better than nonces, and that their very presence is likely to bring about the end of the world, it's genuinely harmful. A lot of people seem to think convincing the PM to have his party whipped into voting aye for same sex marriage means it's all gravy for gay people now, but that's not remotely the case. Being a young gay lad or lass in some shithole nowhere town, or fuckwit infested estate, is more or less as shite as it was in the 80's, so to potentially honour someone who feeds into that mentality is, rightly, considered damaging to the lives of gay people.

He didn't equate homosexuality with paedophilia. As a Christian he views them, plus matters like abortion, as sinful.

I don't like tuna sandwiches and I'm not particularly fond of leukaemia, as far as I'm concerned they can both be banished to a fiery pit of hell. Does that mean tuna sandwiches are as bad as leukaemia? No, not if you're able to think.

Pish. You're out to bait someone here, but at least maintain an internal logical consistency with your ramblings. Implying his views are simply "politically incorrect" is a gross misrepresentation of his opinion on homosexuals, for a start.

Equating male homosexuals to paedophiles is no different to equating all eskimos to terrorists, and if he did that he'd be stripped off his titles for definite, yet there are more homosexuals in this country than eskimos. It's not hypersensitive if the discrimination is real.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season."

Pretty much. Internalised homophobia is still homophobia. But hey clearly you represent the entire demographic of gay people, so let's punish everyone else because you think it would be a laugh. Who cares what actual representative groups like Stonewall think.

For our highly paid celebrities
To use language of bigotry
And then make no apology
Because no one sees a link between
The things he thinks it's fine to tweet
And people yelled at in the street
And kids abused in every school
And the time my windows were bricked through

I'm a bumder and think Tyson is a terrible role model, both as a sportsman and as a Christian, but I'd have pissed myself laughing if he'd won. It would have broke the internet and been a pretty hilarious shitstorm, but more importantly than that it would have shone a light on something not enough people want to talk about within Christianity: Bigotry. It gets a by for theological reasons which divide the movement as it is, nevermind after a prominent sports personality gets rewarded for equating homosexuals with paedophiles. We were robbed of that debate within the Church and it'll be the poorer for it.

I hate being told what I can and can't laugh at also. Think about it this way, what the fuck are the aliens going to think of us when they get here if we're still squabbling over shit like this instead of discussing them rationally, hmm? It's embarrassing.

We don't all live in our own universes unconnected to everyone else. Our actions and our words, especially those by people with any bit of influence and a platform, feeds into our culture. Making bigotry mainstream and acceptable in our culture again is a frightful regression. It is all fun and jokes till you get bottled for being a fairy.

Bigotry shouldn't be given a platform, space or air. It should never be legitimised again. The "ignorance" and outright bigotry of some of you lads here is astounding and makes it even more apparent to me that these views should be utterly quashed.

I understand that being "un-PC" and a bigot is in vogue right now, but I implore you lads to at least think about this matter a little. Maybe you can find some empathy in yourselves and realise how these actions lead to some horrific consequences down the road.

I agree with you in part, but what you're suggesting is censorship of thought and ideas. Ideas change over time, and so do people's attitudes.

Christianity as a movement would have been forced to comment on Tyson's comments if he'd won to either denounce them or support them and it would have started a dialogue about bigitry and it's place in society.

If you censor thought and ideas, then you can't give them the air they need to naturally run their course and you end up with movements like the EDL on your hands.

If all you do is refuse to engage or scream bigot at him then those opinions will not be changed. Ignorance will spread. It's why we end up with the likes of UKIP.

There is a lot wrong with what you said. Whether Tyson is a moron or not does not matter, since he is being given a platform to air his bigotry and try to legitimise those toxic ideas from just a few decades ago. Challenging opinions rarely change anything, and if the current climate changed to one of hostility towards minorities, I would be willing to do more than just shout "bigotry" and hope it goes away.

I am not an apologist for bigots, and I don't know why you are. Whether it festers or not does not matter, it should be looked out for, and crushed. Groups like EDL don't exist because of "uneducated" people. They exists because evil and people who facilitate evil "for laughs" exist. One should stay vigilant since it is human nature for the dominate group to subjugate the minority. All genocides and massacres start from something small that could have been stopped.

Voltaire is a pretty well known philosopher and was an advocate of freedom of speech who was part of the enlightenment movement in Europe. Even if you've never heard of him, which is in itself a poor indictment of 21st century schooling, a quick google would have cleared stuff up as he was, quite famously, quoted as saying "To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise."

This particular quote was aimed at the Catholic Church of the time, but it holds no less weight today and the lad advocating censorship in this thread is a worrying symptom of the times. I don't want myself or anyone else to be persecuted for being gay, but I also want the people who think I should be to have the freedom to express their views and for me to have the chance to change their minds through dialogue and debate and not have them be driven underground into echo chamber communities that wont challenge ignorance or seek truth.

Censorship harms us all because it writes off a whole sub-section of thought as wrong without engaging with it and trying to temper it into something constructive, which creates insular and extremist communities. People who advocate censorship are no better than the people they want to censor.

Only by people who mistakenly believed that he said it. The actual originator was a holocaust-denying neo-Nazi, who first said it about twenty years ago. I'm sure had you even bothered with the quick google you suggested, it would have cleared that up for you.

Maybe you should have paid attention in school more, and maybe even googled that quote. Anyway, you say "a worrying signs of the times?" As opposed to what? When we were all free to go around laplander bashing and imprisoning homosexuals for being deviants? What glorious times those were. To be free and say whatever you want.

The whole problem with the people who keep crying about freedom of speech and censorship is that they are almost always bigots. Neo-nazis, Islamophobes, homophobes, etc, you name it. Right wing bigotry is so intertwined in so called "anti-censorship" that people part of it readily quote neo-nazis like you just did now. Are you anti-Semitic? You wouldn't say you are now would you? Then why are you quoting a neo-nazi that used that quote to attack Jews?

You can think and talk about "engaging in discussions" and "trying to challenge ignorance," but that is as far as you will go, and when the curtains come down on all of us that this affects, you will still be happily eating dinner with your family. It is this insincerity that I hate beyond overt bigotry. Reading the letters sent to Martin Luther King Jr, made this more apparent to me and helped me understand just how dangerous and worse the "not-so-bigoted" moderate average people are because of their devotion to order than justice. >>7276

For these reasons, I wholly reject bigotry enforced upon the helpless under the banner of "free speech." And next time you want to make a point, refrain from quoting a neo-nazi paedophile. Maybe you will look like less of a bigot.

Evil must be identified everywhere and anywhere it exists, and it should be eradicated along with the facilitators of evil.

Not him, but your point appears to be that only those who agree with you should be able to have a platform. Frame it any way you like, but that right there directly makes it a freedom of speech issue. I'm sure you'd happily sit in your cosy little bubble and suspect that people like Tyson Fury are idiots. I much prefer that we let them speak and remove all doubt. People complain about Donald Trump's comments and the nature of them. By contrast, I welcome them thoroughly. By making those comments out in the open, he makes it absolutely clear just how shit he is at being human, and the fact that so many people agree with him exposes them for what they are. We no longer have to go digging for the finer points of dolphin rape in America - the current pole-sitter in the Republican race is calling the Mexicans rapists and the Chinese crooks on a near-daily basis and people are agreeing with him. It's as plain as the nose on his face. Nobody can deny it in any seriousness. And all because people let him have a platform. How much longer do you think all those people could have kept that quiet had we kept censoring them?

People like you who argue that free speech is a legal concept that applies in limited circumstances are a pox on society no better than the "facilitators of evil" you claim to rail against. As Trump's statements reveal him to be a chauvinist, yours reveal you to be a fascist.

That saying you're paraphrasing begins 'It is better to keep silent and be thought an idiot'. And thus, I would far prefer racists and homophobes kept their mouths firmly shut, than continue to spew their vitriol unfettered.

How on earth do you think Donald Trump proves your point? We agree dolphin rape is endemic in America, but a rich and powerful man saying racist things in the media doesn't 'expose' it any more than me farting outdoors proves the existence of wind. Instead it legitimises these views: people who before would have swallowed their disgust at the Mexicans and the eskimos on their bus will now be unafraid to say they agree with the powerful man on the television and tell them to get out of their country. Instead of discussing real issues like poverty and education, Trump's opponents have to waste their time explaining why kicking all eskimos out of the country is a bad thing. And you think this state of affairs is ideal? Christ I'm astounded I have to actually explain this, it's fucking obvious.

This is the point of why these views should not be given a platform. They make people less safe. And frankly keeping people safe from violence and discrimination is more important than giving everyone the freedom to say whatever they like wherever and whenever they like.

Conversely, when people are talking less, they are listening more. And when people listen, they learn. And when people learn, they accept and tolerate.

Yes. It's better for them to be merely thought an idiot. It's better for the rest of us that we know for certain. To borrow a phrase, "I'm astounded I have to actually explain this, it's fucking obvious".

>Instead it legitimises these views
What utter bollocks. It doesn't legitimise them any more than a documentary illustrating how David Icke believes the world is run by twelve-foot-tall blood-drinking lizard-people legitimises that viewpoint.

>people who before would have swallowed their disgust at the Mexicans and the eskimos on their bus will now be unafraid to say they agree with the powerful man on the television and tell them to get out of their country.
Right, and then you can deal with them, where you couldn't otherwise. Those people are no longer lying to themselves and everyone else about what they think and who they are.

>Instead of discussing real issues like poverty and education, Trump's opponents have to waste their time explaining why kicking all eskimos out of the country is a bad thing.
So, it's perfectly fine in your book for people to be bigots as long as they're concerned with what you believe to be "real issues like poverty and education"? When did endemic crayfishery cease to be a "real issue" in America? You didn't seriously think that those people are going to magically wake up one morning and realise that they've been wrong all along, did you?

What a load of nonsense. You're basically saying that people can only speak their views if they're "correct" and anyone who disagrees with you is "evil" or a "facilitator of evil". Perhaps you should pop along to whichever suburban semi the North Korean embassy is in these days to arrange a defection. I'm sure they'll be taken with your willingness to adhere to and enforce Party dogma.

Those ideas are still prevalent in a not insignificant number of people. Maybe you like to bury your head in the sand and pretend that when Big Ben struck midnight on 2015 a magical fairy waved her wand and everyone suddenly became more tolerant, perhaps your cosy middle class enclave is full of sunshine and daisies, but in real life this simply did not happen and the issue will not go away by itself.

>Challenging opinions rarely change anything

Acting high and mighty and screaming bigot at people achieves nothing other than making you feel smug and entrenching their views.

It's completely counterintuitive but I'm sure you feel totally right on.

>West Indies cricketer Chris Gayle has been fined A$10,000 ($7,200; £4,900) for "inappropriate conduct" after he asked a TV reporter on a date in a live interview.

>Gayle was speaking to journalist Mel McLaughlin during a Big Bash League match in Hobart on Monday. "To see your eyes for the first time is nice. Hopefully we can have a drink afterwards. Don't blush baby," he said.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-35229309

I don't see the big deal. All he did was ask someone out, he didn't do a good job of it but inviting someone on a date isn't offensive. If anything, they're being racist towards him because this is what smooth-talking Jamaican men are like and these are his cultural norms.

I don't like the way the world is heading. We're reaching the stage where it's a minefield whether it's appropriate to approach someone and ask them out on a date. As far as I can see, you'll be branded a wrong 'un if you try your luck with someone and they're not interested.

Susanna Reid is notorious for flirting shamelessly and giggling like a schoolgirl during interviews, oh and flashing her knickers while on air, and was rewarded for this by ITV giving her a £1million a year contract.

Her behaviour is far worse and more inappropriate than what the cricketer did but, seeing as we're going down this route, it's double standards because she's a bit of top totty.

The wife has a facebook that is propaganda central, and she hadn't even heard of the Cologne attacks until I mentioned it to her.

I read the Metro the other day and it was mentioned on page 29 (after the letters, but just before the sports) and the story was about how people were racist for daring to suggest immigration could really be an issue that affected this.

No one either knows or cares about it. But you can be sure as soon as a white German protests this the papers will be going "OMG HITLER 2.0 ON THE WAY!"

With Cologne they buried their head in the sand until they could ignore it no longer. They've only published three opinion pieces on it and they're all shameful.

NRL superstar Mitchell Pearce's future in doubt after video emerges of lewd act at Australia Day party

State of Origin player Mitchell Pearce has been filmed simulating a debaucherous act on a dog at an Australia Day house party.

In the video, a clearly inebriated Pearce is seen making advances towards a fellow partygoer and then urinating on himself. After being rejected by the woman, he can be seen turning his attentions to a Maltese terrier - repeatedly simulating a lewd act on the small dog.

The dog's owner repeatedly pulls the pet off Pearce, with the Sydney Roosters captain picking it up and performing the lewd act again.

"I wanna fuck a dog, I don't even care anymore," Pearce said.

"I care. You've peed on my couch, you've peed on yourself. Get the fuck out," the party host then said.

Fair point, that was his pay at Sunderland but he will be worth a few million and, even if he does serve a little jail time, he'll come out and sign for someone like West Brom, Villa or a

No, lad. She'd still be a bit of a silly bint, but not as much as he is. Bear in mind that he Googled the age of consent before meeting up and still went ahead. Picking up a school girl and then driving to a place more secluded, i.e. where you're less likely to be seen, while going on about how you want her to thank you for giving her a signed shirt before placing her hand on your cock and pushing her face down towards it is an incredibly intimidating situation to put her in. It's dubious to do this to a 16 year old, but to do this to a lass in Year 10 when this would clearly be brought up as evidence to paint you as a sexual predator - especially as he was simultaneously sending flirty texts to this lass and responding to his girlfriend about pictures she'd just sent him of their newborn baby - is unbelievably, unbelievably stupid. He could have treated her a bit instead of coercing her in the dark in his Land Rover.

Please tell me you're not the lad who tries to post in /lab/ about how girls are at their most fertile at 13/14. Age should be a barrier to consent. If a 12 year old knows 'full well what she's doing' then don't try and give her one.

I don't follow what your point is. I'm saying it's stupid to talk about the chronological line of consent in the same breath as how the individual is vulnerable and the situation was intimidating, as if the former makes any difference to the latter. Whereas you appear to only be concerned with how stupid the footballer was acting. That's not in dispute, at least with me.

It's remarkably easy to type as though you are an articulate, eloquent individual. Having the luxury of time affords one the ability to consider the range of vocabulary available, and the particular arrangement therein. To speak in such a manner out loud, with the instant response a typical conversation requires, is a formiddable task regardless of intellect.

Hence why I post on .gs, because most of the time in real life my sentences start with "innit" and end with "buzzing"; which although they have their charm, spoken with a strong northern accent, are hardly indicators of intelligence.

PERVERT Adam Johnson satisfied his sick cravings by trawling the internet for animal porn, it can be revealed today.

When cops arrested him for sexual activity with a schoolgirl they seized all his devices — and were horrified to find he had been watching disgusting bestiality videos.

Officers also discovered Johnson gorged on X-rated videos of teenage girls — with a site called 'Nice Young Teens' one of his favourites.

And it is thought he was infected with two sexually transmitted diseases at the time he was grooming the 15-year-old Sunderland fan and sexting another four women behind his girlfriend's back.

Johnson spent hours texting other girls to meet up for sex — with open air romps on the bonnet of his Range Rover one of his favourite positions.

Appalled cops discovered Johnson had watched videos of people having sex with animals. They also found an iPad which had been used to look online for X-rated videos of teen girls only just older than his victim. He regularly visited the 'Nice Young Teens' website on which he pored over explicit images of young girls barely over the age of consent.

The Sun can also reveal Johnson had a reputation within the Sunderland dressing room for being obsessed with porn and even had an app on his mobile to more readily access hard-core material.

Players knew he preferred younger women but had no idea he was interested in underage girls.

With Lance, the idea is, he only won because he cheated, so his wins are negated. It's a good thing that sports blank those sorts of wins.

To ignore a players caps though, that's just odd. By all means, stop mentioning him, take him off your stats pages, but to pretend he never existed in the game seems excessive. Also, that's probably the least of his worries.

I assume you're talking about Susie Wolff and Carmen Jorda, neither of whom had a snowball's chance in hell of being signed for an actual race seat. They are 'development drivers' for the sake of exposure for the teams, and in the case of Wolff, partially because of her husband's connections and stake in Williams. She also retired last year.

I don't mean to say that it could never happen, and there are notable female drivers in other series like Simona de Silvestro in Formula E, and several in Indycar, but right now there are no legitimate contenders for F1.

F1 is much more physically demanding than most people realise. Novice drivers can often be seen with their head slumped against the cockpit, because they don't have enough endurance in their neck muscles. Drivers need immense grip strength, because the cars have no power steering and massive front tyre loadings. At the Malaysia Grand Prix, cockpit temperatures can exceed 50C at 100% humidity. F1 drivers need phenomenal levels of physical conditioning.

There are plenty of women who can do five installation laps at a reasonable pace. There are a handful who can do a fifteen lap stint in free practice. I don't know if any can manage a Grand Prix at race pace.

Susie Wolff's longest stint was 22 laps at Hockenheim, and she looked absolutely wrecked afterwards. She was clearly a pay driver in DTM, woefully underperforming compared to her team-mates. The only woman to ever score points in a Grand Prix was Lella Lombardi; She was racing before the aero revolution when G loadings were much lower.

Women can perform well in less physically demanding formulae, but I doubt we'll ever see a competitive female F1 driver. Danica Patrick had some success in IndyCar, but peak lateral Gs during her tenure were about half of that in F1.

I'm no F1 nerd, but I am into all things physical conditioning and your post has piqued my interest. You got me wondering if the drivers typically take up physical training to get up to the standard required to drive, or if they just take an adaptive approach to the increased stresses as they practice racing. I got the following link which maybe you can assess the accuracy of:

https://www.formula1.com/content/fom-website/en/championship/inside-f1/understanding-f1-racing/Driverfitness.html

I have read that in your typical athletic events (all types of distance running, shotput, discus, cycling, rowing, etc.), at the very top ends of the sport there's generally around 10% difference between men in women with regard to world records, though this can jump up higher in categories like weightlifting. This study supposedly found that rates of participation aren't relevant to the result:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3761733/

I wonder if this also applies to F1, which seems to require a peculiar set of physical characteristics and a lot of strength relative to bodyweight. If it does, what might the difference mean in terms of racing stamina? Do you think participation is an issue?

>>7643 because the cars have no power steering

I don't think so. Electronic power steering was banned (as an electronic driver aid), but hydraulic assistance is still fine (despite the fact that it's more expensive, crappier, and less road relevant). If electronic assistance was run from the standard ECU, it could be policed for excess cunning.

"10.4.2 Power assisted steering systems may not be electronically controlled or electrically powered.
No such system may carry out any function other than reduce the physical effort required to
steer the car."

The drivers all have personal trainers and dieticians. Most have custom resistance training rigs for developing specific strength. The main focus is on coordination and core strength, but they all have very good cardiovascular fitness. F1 drivers typically have resting heart rates well below 50, but average above 170 during a Grand Prix.

The taller drivers struggle constantly with their weight, because a kilo of bodyweight costs about 3/100ths of a second per lap. In-season body fat percentages are comparable to those of distance runners.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/motorsport/formulaone/10354798/Driver-weight-limit-in-Formula-One-is-unfair-says-Jenson-Button-as-stars-prepare-to-fight-problem.html

Here is some footage of Nico Rosberg's training regime:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-KYASQKdSU?start=52

Regarding gender: To compete in F1, you need to be in excellent physical condition and be a very talented driver. A large proportion of men could develop sufficient physical conditioning, but only a tiny minority have the driving talent. A female driver needs to be exceptionally genetically gifted to develop sufficient physical conditioning and still needs to be an exceptional driver. The latter combination is much rarer. Multiply the tiny percentage of women with the required attributes by the low participation rates and the probability of success is very low.

It's also possible that motor racing is a gender-biased skill. There are statistically significant gender differences in reaction times and spatial abilities. Elite female performances are substantially worse than elite male performances in pure skill sports like darts, snooker and air rifle shooting where physical strength and cardiovascular fitness are irrelevant.

>>7645

"No power steering" was a lazy shorthand for "exceptionally heavy steering feel". F1 cars do have hydraulic power steering, but the system is totally unlike that of a road car. Reducing the steering force is a secondary goal for F1 power steering, behind minimising weight and prolonging the life of the front tyres.

G forces play a substantial role - in a long sweeping corner, your arms are being pulled sideways with a great deal of force. Try lying on your side and waving a couple of 10kg weights about at arm's length. Modern F1 cars are relatively easy to drive compared to the turbo era cars, but they're still very physically demanding.

I honestly think a good part of the reason why people don't understand the physicality of the sport is image stabilisation. The onboard cameras nowadays make the cars look like they have the suspensions akin to high end road cars, when the reality is quite different.

Compare and contrast onboard footage from the car's camera:

With footage from a helmet mounted camera. which shows just how much the driver is being thrown around:

The worst pay drivers are still extremely talented. It's the difference between being in the top 0.01% of drivers and the top 0.001%. Maldonado worked his way up through the lower formulae, winning the GP2 series to get his F1 seat. You don't get a Super license in a cornflakes packet.

>>7650

Good point. I think you only really understand it if you see a race in person. F1 can seem a bit tame and monotonous on TV. The whole thing seems a bit unreal, because you don't have a proper sense of scale. You have to be trackside to really see how bumpy the kerbs are at Silverstone, how deeply Mirabeau slopes, how brutally an F1 car can accelerate and brake.

To a lesser extent, I think the same thing applies to the Manx TT. You get a sense of the speed from the onboard footage, but you don't really understand how tight that circuit is and how ragged the bikes are. The bikes are writhing and squirming, but the riders are still taking corners with inches to spare. You see a bike coming over Ballagarey on one wheel with a ton of lean angle and wonder how anyone survives a lap, then you see the bloody sidecars go round. Some absolute lunatic is hanging on by his fingernails, with his helmet barely skimming past the garden walls and lamp posts.

Speaking of road racing, RIP John Hinds.

And Schumacher, and Lauda. These days, everyone is sort of a pay driver. The costs are simply too high to ignore the importance of sponsorship.

It depends on what you mean by pay driver, I guess. I think there's a substantial difference between a driver whose achievements attract sponsors and a driver who has a seat because they're sponsored.

The likes of Hamilton, Alonso, or Vettel wouldn't be in any particular danger if they lost sponsors (not least because there would likely be other parties lining up to take their place), but Maldonado was fucked without his. Everybody knew that it was only a matter of time before he'd be off the grid after Chavez died and oil prices took a dive.

She also only got points because during that race:

Three drivers refused to race because the barriers weren't put up properly.
There was a huge first corner crash taking a lot of the field out.
Oil was dumped on lap four which took out another bunch.
A car cleared the barrier and killed 5 spectators which stopped the race on 29 out of 75 laps.

In the end she didn't get a point. She got half a point.

If you are wondering it is 34235.97 points to male drivers (the .97 is due to some identical fastest lap times in the 50's meaning a point got split between 7 people)

0.5 points for female drivers.

I should round it up as they were officially given a 1/7th of a point not 0.14 of a point each but I prefer to leave it in just because it is nice to explain.

Also you had this crazy situation in Argentina in 1955 when the heat was 40°C and meant there was a load of driver changes to relieve people of the scorching heat which meant 4 points got split between 3 people.

As my dear old mum used to say, 15 is more than certainly old enough to know better.

In the eyes of the law she can't be held responsible for her actions because she was a dribbling retard overpowered by a famous footy man, so there's no question about it.

But if I was her mam and dad she'd be getting a bloody good hiding for being daft enough to get into such a mess.

Not him, but I'm really not at all sure how you've turned that into an either/or decision. Children as young as ten have been prosecuted for their actions, but ten year olds still need parental guidance; perhaps if they'd had more they wouldn't end up being fucking prosecuted.

I'm not the one making this black and white mate. Just because criminal responsibility begins at ten doesn't mean ten year olds are capable of the same stuff that adults are. In the same vein just because a 15 year old is sending you tit pictures doesn't mean she is entirely capable of understanding all the ramifications.

Being capable of the same things as an adult =/= being "treated identically at trial and sentencing to a third year old (sic)". It simply means that they're definitely capable of committing the same crimes as adults and that they need to be tried for those crimes. That said, plenty of minors are tried as adults in shitholes like America in any case. Please stop being so insufferable.

It's because he's French, means he's a bit of a ponce.

Anyway, the Brazilians are notorious for booing their own players the moment things don't go their way. During the men's football matches, like the draw with Iraq, they've been incredibly hostile to their own team and have been chanting the names of the female players instead.

The crowd were great during the tennis, though. Really made the atmosphere.

I've heard that the hostility of the crowd is being misinterpreted - by virtue of being host Brazil is competing in a lot of events that it otherwise wouldn't qualify for, and the resulting poor performance is ending up as a bit of a national embarrassment, so to a certain extent one can understand the Brazilian annoyance.

Though I have to say I'm puzzled that this behaviour doesn't tally with the friendly good nature of Brazilians that I have always encountered online.

The tight undies are probably what did him in.

If he'd have had loose fitting boxers and flappy shorts on, his todger would have nudged the pole, but harmlessly swung away following the impact.

Furious Mongolian officials stripped off and hurled their shoes to the floor in protest on Sunday after their wrestler Mandakhnaran Ganzorig was judged the loser of a bronze medal contest with Ikhtiyor Navruzov of Uzbekistan.

Ganzorig, leading by seven points to six, taunted his opponent by dancing around him in the last 18 seconds and was then carried around the ring in triumph by one of his coaches.

But the judges then adjusted the score to 7-7, penalising the Mongolian for “fleeing the hold”, or refusing to engage with his opponent. They then added a further point to the Uzbek’s score after the Mongolian corner challenged the decision and had the challenge rejected.

I still don't understand how FIFA, a privately owned organisation, can be 'corrupt'. It's not a public body. Its purpose is to rake in cash from the public and distribute it to its owners. Personal profit is the aim. At worst, FIFA officials are only guilty of embezzlement or simply not following FIFA rules, which shouldn't be of interest to the public at all.

FIFA isn't a private company, it's a members association. It is bound by the FIFA statutes to represent the interests of its membership (national football associations) and the interests of the game at large.

Regardless of the corporate status of FIFA, bribery is still illegal.

>The footballer Ched Evans raped a “heavily intoxicated” waitress in a budget hotel room after a friend called him to say “I’ve got a girl”, a jury has been told.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/oct/04/ched-evans-raped-drunk-teenager-hotel-room-retrial-jury-told

He's back to being a footballer rather than the convicted rapist Ched Evans.

Anyway, I'm sure that the original trial found that the CCTV footage in the hotel proved she wasn't that drunk and also that she had a habit of complete memory loss when she'd been drinking, even if she wasn't blind drunk. I'm sure the toxicology results confirmed she wasn't heavily drunk, too. No idea when the verdict is.

The Guardian have been having a teary over the verdict, particularly because her sexual activity was brought up during the retrial. However, they've glossed over the specific reason it was brought up. During the original trial Ched claimed that she had said "fuck me harder" whilst he was doing her doggy style. Around the time of the incident she got drunk and hooked up with two men on separate occasions. Both of these men have stated that she told them to fuck her harder whilst she was taking it from behind.

Also, it's emerged that she only rang the police because she woke up and found her handbag was missing. It was the decision of the CPS to go for a rape charge, presumably to try and bag a big name.

Anyone that still gets grief when they tell people not to talk to the police, point them at this case. She reported a missing handbag. They were due to attend the police station anyway but reported their concerns about her. Without a complaint from either side, the CPS laid a charge of rape on their own initiative. By doing what they thought was the right thing, they ended up on trial for rape. Ched spent around 30 months in prison, and anyone that dared offer to employ him was hounded over it. The woman involved had to move home five times and was issued with not one but two new identities. All because the CPS wanted to make a point.

Well... She never said she was raped to the police, but she thought her drink was spiked because she didn't remember the good shagging. The police thought she was too intoxicated to have consented and sent Evans to prison.

I believe I read that the maximum compensation he can claim is £500,000 for loss of earnings. He was on at least £20,000 a week, so during that period he'd have earned £2.6million gross, not to mention the length of time it took him to find another club (with Chesterfield paying him less than a tenth of his Sheffield United wage and the fact there's a reasonable chance Sheffield United would have got promoted in the season he was arrested, as they were in an automatic spot with just a handful of games left) and the likelihood he'd have played for Wales at Euro 2016 if this didn't happen.

He's given his first interview, to the Mail on Sunday.

On his second night in prison, Ched Evans heard a metallic clink on the floor. The footballer, who on Friday was found not guilty of raping a 19-year-old woman following a retrial, went over to inspect and found razor blades had been passed under his cell door.

'I thought it was to protect myself,' he says. 'It was only later I realised it was so I could cut my own wrists.'

'Every day was a nightmare. They wanted me to do a Sex Offenders course and told me I would get an easier life in prison - more money, more clothes, a Playstation. It was designed for people to accept what they have done. From day one I refused to do it. I never went near a course that could potentially be seen as an admission of anything.'

'When I heard the word guilty I was literally numb,' he says. 'We'd been told it would either be both not guilty or both guilty. When Clay's verdict came back I got the thumbs up off my barrister and then the jury came back with a guilty.'

'When I went to prison, the people who are against me were happy the law was in order,' Evans says. But now, after going through the Court of Appeal and getting a not guilty verdict from a jury they are not happy with it.'

'I have maintained my innocence from day one,' he says. 'So I can never apologise directly for what happened but I can apologise for the effect it's had. The social media stuff, I don't condone whatsoever. I don't agree with it. It's not been easy for her. I know that. I think it was a situation that got taken out of our hands from an early stage. She never said anybody raped her. She said she had a blackout but that didn't mean, like it was said in court, that she didn't consent. My behaviour that night was not acceptable - but it wasn't a crime.'

'I'll get abuse from football fans but that's what football fans do. There will be nothing hanging over me, nothing at the back of my mind. I don't think I will ever get away from it even after bring found innocent by a jury. I now just want to let the football do the talking.'

The Guardian view on Ched Evans: reconsider the law

The verdict of a jury last Friday that found Ched Evans not guilty of rape appears to be a devastating setback for justice for rape victims. The footballer admits that he had sex with a woman he barely knew, who was drunk, and to whom he addressed not a word. He was convicted by the first jury to try him in 2011. But at his retrial, the jury decided they could not be certain that the woman had not consented, a verdict they reached after they had heard evidence that she had behaved in a similar manner with two other men at around the same time. Everything about this case stinks.

It is true that not all the evidence that Mr Evans’ legal team finally won on was available at the first trial. A subsequent appeal against conviction was dismissed. Only after a new legal team was employed was the original evidence reconsidered and the witnesses re-interviewed. A new defence was presented to the Criminal Cases Review Commission. The court of appeal considered the new evidence and decided that it met the condition of “similar fact”: that meant there could be a retrial, and the new evidence of sexual behaviour could be introduced. Explaining her reasons, Lady Justice Hallett admitted she did so with “a considerable degree of hesitation”.

The judge was unquestionably fulfilling the requirements of the law as she understood it. But sometimes the law is wrong.

There is real concern that this sequence of events will make the prosecution of rape cases harder and reporting rarer. The verdict breathes fresh life into the old prejudice that how a woman has behaved in the past can be taken as evidence of the way she behaved at the time of the alleged rape, that – in the ancient formulation – “unchaste women are more likely to consent and less worthy of belief”.


https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/oct/17/the-guardian-view-on-ched-evans-reconsider-the-law

They're still having a massive teary over this, I've lost count of the number of pieces they've now published.

They'd rather see an innocent man go to jail if it means other women would be more likely to report a rape in the future. They're also still peddling the lie that her sexual history was brought up so she could be painted as a slapper who was asking for it so she could be discredited rather than the fact that Evans' account of what happened is extremely similar to the accounts of two men who slept with her around the same time.

The Guardian seem to continually be making wrong calls now.

Instead we've ruined the life of woman for the sake of some others cause.

The facts show that he arrived, had sex with this woman without speaking to her and then left, with the only admonishment, that has caused the historical behaviour to be brought up in court, from her as "Fuck me harder", from behind. He left, through the window where some suggest others were watching.

She could not remember and she did not make the initial complaint. That doesn't really change anything for me, most normal reasonable man I know who has sexual experience of women would call that rape.

The Guardian is in terminal decline. They made a loss of £173m last year. The only thing staving off bankruptcy is their considerable trust fund, but they're at risk of exhausting that within the next ten years. Bizarrely, they could have gone bust in 2014 if they hadn't sold off Auto Trader.

They're trapped in the business death spiral of trying to increase profits whilst also cutting costs. The business wonks call it "doing more with less", but in practice that means spreading yourself thin. For a newspaper, this inevitably leads to less real reporting and more controversial commentary.

I know a few staffers at the Guardian and they've all told me the same thing. The editors want more content, they want it turned around faster and they want a busy comments section. The phrase "editorial distinctiveness" seems to be code for "whatever will get retweeted".

It's tragic really. For all the grief we gave The Grauniad, it was once a great paper that broke some huge stories. It's hard to think of a single scoop in the post-Rusbridger era.

I don't think they would. Call me old-fashioned, but "Fuck me harder" is not the utterance of a woman who does not consent. If what is claimed is true, then it's clear that she did not protest and did not silently resign herself to her fate. It would appear that she actively participated and encouraged in it. Whichever way you cut it, that would amount to consent by conduct. The court emphasised two important principles: drunken consent is still consent, and absence of memory of consent is not absence of consent.

In the worst case, the CPS took a young woman who was missing her purse and turned her into a rape victim, along with all the baggage and stigma that comes with it, and then insisted on putting her through the whole ordeal again by demanding (and getting) a retrial. A second conviction would have been almost useless. He wouldn't have gone back to prison because his sentence would almost certainly have amounted to time served.

The whole affair has been sordid, and there have been no winners, apart perhaps from anyone that got to collect a fee.

>Eric Bristow's manager asked for a £5,000 fee to discuss comments where he called footballers who were sexually abused by their coaches at a young age "wimps", a BBC journalist has claimed.

>The claim followed Bristow’s heated exchange with Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain when he attempted to clarify his tweets by arguing that victims should have come forward earlier to stop other children being abused saying it was “no good complaining 30 years later”. After saying he was just being "straightforward, just like your [Morgan's] mate Trump", he later apologised for using the word “wimps”.

>Bristow has since released a statement where he said he appreciated his “wording was wrong and offended many people” in his tweets.

>“I don’t use PR people to run my social account as some do and now appreciate my wording was wrong and offended many people when all I was doing was venting my anger at the abusers and encouraging kids to act ASAP. I know why I’ve been vilified but if one child comes forward quicker or one abuser thinks twice about the likelihood of being confronted then it will have been worth it.”

Former England and Southampton footballer Matt Le Tissier has said he was given a "naked massage" by a coach at the centre of sex abuse allegations.

Describing the incident, Mr Le Tissier told BBC South: "Everyone was kind of naked and getting thrown on this bed... and a very quick massage - it was uncomfortable.. it's very, very wrong for a start - looking back on it, you think it's wrong but as a young boy you thought 'is this normal'?
"It's pretty disgusting. What went on is not normal behaviour. When you hear the stories of naked soapy massages, hairy bum competitions... you look back at it now and think 'hang on, what was going on?'.

Witchcraft banned from football games in Africa after bizarre coincidences freak out players and referees

African football chiefs have been forced to outlaw witchcraft - over fears players are using it to gain an unfair advantage in matches.

In a game between Rwandan Premier League teams Mukura Victory and Rayon Sports, a player apparently performed a ritual mid-game, and within seconds scored a goal.

David Beckham was last night embroiled in a furious row after he was targeted by hackers who leaked emails which alleged he used his charity work as part of a campaign to win a knighthood.

The former England captain was accused of calling the honours committee 'unappreciative cunts' for its failure to make him Sir David as well refusing to bankroll the charity. A series of damning emails were released by Football Leaks yesterday, the sporting equivalent of Wiki Leaks.

The cache of emails include allegations that Beckham, an ambassador for Unicef, demanded £6,685 from the charity for a business class flight for him to attend an event in Asia, even though his sponsors had provided a private jet. Football Leaks claimed Beckham admitted in emails that his charity work was part of a conscious effort to win an honour.

Football Leaks also claimed the 41-year-old reacted angrily when friend and PR advisor Simon Oliveira suggested he put one million dollars (£800,000) into a prize-giving Unicef dinner in Shanghai. Beckham allegedly replied: 'I don't want to put my personal money into this cause,' claiming he added: 'To pour this million into the fund, is like putting my own money in. If there was no fund, the money would be for me. This fucking money is mine.'

'Humanitarian causes were just a stepping-stone for his personal affairs, and to project his image among advertisers,' claimed a source close to the leaks.

Beckham - who has an estimated networth of £280million – allegedly wrote an email to Mr Oliveira furious that classical star Katherine Jenkins had been handed an OBE after he missed out on a knighthood in 2013, The Sun reported. They claim he wrote: 'Katherine Jenkins OBE for what? Singing at the rugby and going to see the troops plus taking coke. Fucking joke,' noting she had admitted to taking cocaine in the past.


http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4190152/Hackers-release-tranche-Beckham-s-personal-emails.html

Who'd have thought it? He's only using charity work to promote his image and he isn't prepared to put any of his own money into his own charitable fund.

>But Warburton, who took charge in 2015, told BBC Scotland he has not stood down and was unaware of the statement. And the 54-year-old Englishman is consulting his legal team.

>The BBC has learned that Warburton had contact with Nottingham Forest around 10 days ago and was high on the English Championship club's list of possible managers. However, he was not offered the job and they decided to retain their interim team of Gary Brazil and Jack Lester until the end of the season.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38939432

You couldn't make it up. Warburton offers his resignation as Rangers manager so he can go and take over at Nottingham Forest. Forest decide they don't want him so he tries to rescind his offer of resignation but Rangers tell him where to go and because they technically haven't sacked him he's waived his rights to a severance package of about £700k.

Adam Johnson, the disgraced former England footballer, has been secretly filmed in prison laughing about his conviction for sexually assaulting a 15-year-old fan.

In a video published by the Sun, the ex-Sunderland midfielder dismissed his crimes as “fuck all” and said he would have been let off with a caution if he was “Joe Public”.

Responding to a fellow prisoner who said Johnson did not rape his victim, the former footballer said: “No, I wish I fucking did for six years.”

In the video the former Manchester City and Middlesbrough winger is heard admitting that his chances of playing again in England had been scuppered by “do-gooders” but that he may try revive his career abroad.

He tells fellow prisoners: “I’ve got more chance abroad. You can’t get a second chance in England man. All them do-gooders they’ll come out and say, ‘Nah he can’t play and all this, he’s done this.’”

Johnson is seen making a crude gesture about his victim as he describes how she would wait for a picture with him after Sunderland games at the Stadium of Light, going on to imply that she wore provocative clothing.

Then after the game she was asking for pictures all the time. This went on for about six months and the next thing she says: ‘Can you get us a signed shirt?’ and uh … then she added me [on social media]. I accepted her, got talking to her, I didn’t, I didn’t know, I just thought she was 17, 18.” Johnson’s claim to prisoners that he thought the girl was 17 or 18 is false. In his first police interview and later in evidence at his trial, Johnson admitted kissing the girl and knowing that she was 15.

In the video, another prisoner said: “Next thing you’re doing a six stretch.” Johnson, laughing, replied that other prisoners had been convicted of offences with “12-year-olds and got 13 months and that. D’you know what I mean? They got like half the time!”

Much as this behaviour comes across as cunty, there's another question that needs to be asked. Where does one get video of prisoners talking to other prisoners? They're not supposed to have phones, and they're not supposed to talk to arbitrary people in the outside world. That suggests that The Sun have smuggled a phone into prison and paid a lag to film it. That seems like it might be a little bit illegal.

Grimsby Town fans asked 'to show bras' to Stevenage security

Female football fans were asked to show their bras to stewards during security searches, a supporters' group has said.

Grimsby Town fan group the Mariners Trust made the allegation in a letter to Stevenage FC after the two sides met on Saturday. It said some fans wearing underwired bras were also asked by stewards at the Lamex Stadium if they could feel them.

>Mark Sampson, the manager of the England women’s football team, is alleged to have told one of his black players to make sure their Nigerian relatives did not bring Ebola to a game at Wembley, according to extraordinary new evidence the Guardian can present as part of the Eni Aluko hush-money case.

>Aluko tells this newspaper that the Football Association has known about the comment – described in one letter from the Professional Footballers’ Association to the governing body as a “racist joke” – since November 2016 but chose to ignore it despite a previous allegation that Sampson had asked a mixed-raced player in another England get-together how many times she had been arrested.

>Aluko, who was born in Nigeria but moved to England with her family as a young child, was paid £80,000 by the FA to sign a confidentiality agreement but has now obtained consent to tell her side of the story and in an interview with the Guardian she alleges that Sampson made the comment to her about Ebola before England played Germany in November 2014.

>“We were in the hotel. Everybody was excited. It was a big game. On the wall, there was a list of the family and friends who were coming to watch us and I just happened to be next to Mark. He asked me if I had anyone who would be there and I said I had family coming over from Nigeria. ‘Oh,’ he said. ‘Nigeria? Make sure they don’t bring Ebola with them.’

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/aug/21/eni-aluko-england-manager-mark-sampson-ebola

Is it racist to make a joke about people travelling from a country which had a confirmed Ebola outbreak during the height of the 2014 epidemic? It may not have been in the best possible taste, but that doesn't make it racist.

Were jokes made at our expense about mad cow disease racist? Were jokes made about Asians during their outbreak of bird flu racist?

It's a bit of a saga.

Two years ago, a Grimsby Town fan was kicked out of an away match against Forest Green Rovers after refusing to hand over a giant beach ball to the stewards. In protest, Grimsby Town fans started bringing inflatable toys to away games. Shortly afterwards, a fan was charged with assault for hitting a steward with an inflatable shark at an away game against Barnet. Barnet banned inflatable toys to prevent a repeat incident; Grimsby Town fans protested this by hiring a Mariachi band for their next away match against Barnet.

Basically, Grimsby Town fans are fucking mental.

I think we have to acknowledge that as white people we're probably never going to understand what remarks are and aren't racist because they are received in a very specific context that is alien to us. If I take Aluko at her word, and this was dolphin rape, I'm trying to mentally put myself in her shoes and understand how she interpreted it, and I can sort-of grasp the degree of hurt felt, but it's quite difficult.

Hertha Berlin's players and officials "took a knee" to show their support for "an open-minded world" before their 2-0 loss against Schalke on Saturday. The Bundesliga club copied the protests, started by San Francisco 49ers NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, against treatment of black Americans.

I'm rather wary of the term, as it's often used to denigrate solidarity. There's nothing noble about playing leftier-than-thou Top Trumps on Twitter, but solidarity is the most precious and powerful weapon we have.

I think that Hertha Berlin's protest was a humble and respectful display of solidarity for African American athletes, rather than a smug display of their lefty credibility. Colin Kaepernick has retweeted Hertha Berlin's protest and many others; he clearly believes that that the broad national and international support for the NFL protests has substantially strengthened their cause.

In times like these, I think it's worth remembering the lessons of Paul Robeson. He supported the working class movement around the world, from Wales to China; in turn, they supported the civil rights movement in America. His humanity and generosity of spirit helped to bind disparate causes together into a unified struggle.

An American statistics obsessive who persuaded Fulham’s owner to let him dictate transfer policy accused the club of dolphin rape and physical threats in an extraordinary Twitter attack after he was sacked last week, the Mail on Sunday can reveal.

Craig Kline had come to wield huge influence through his close friendship with owner Shahid Khan’s son Tony, who is director of football operations. He blocked low budget deals to sign players such as Aaron Mooy, who has become a big Premier League success at Huddersfield Town, and Glenn Murray, shortlisted for the top flight’s player of the month award, because they did not score highly enough on his analytics charts.

He made bizarre claims of dolphin rape when players were not bought on the basis of his Moneyball-type model and he went public last week in a series of tweets, seen by the Mail on Sunday from an account now deleted.

Fulham have been in a state of civil war over Kline’s insistence that no player who fell below a specific numerical rating on his data model - which he has refused to divulge details of internally - could be signed. He wielded immense control, with Shahid Khan deferring to his son when executives pleaded with him to intervene.

Shahid Khan finally decided to sack Kline when the obvious internal strife coincided with a dismal display against bottom club Bolton Wanderers last Saturday, in which Fulham needed a last-minute equaliser. With a substantial number of Kline’s players deemed inadequate by Jokanovic, the Serbian was forced to field academy players.

To the astonishment of Fulham executives, Kline called the Metropolitan Police after Shahid Khan reiterated to him on Monday that he was no longer wanted at the club. He eventually departed in farcical fashion, discussing his complaints with officers at a picnic bench while chief executive Alistair Mackintosh, chief operating officer Darren Preston and Jokanovic waited in an office at the Motspur Park training ground, to see if officers wanted to speak to them. They did not.

A Sunderland fan allegedly pulled his trousers down and had poo during the home match with Reading - causing at least one fan to vomit.

Black Cats supporters took to a Sunderland fan forum after the match to reveal details of the incident, which is said to have taken place at the Stadium of Light during the defeat.

Writing online, one fan explained how the man sat in the South Stand suddenly jumped to his feet and dropped his trousers. The supporter continued: "he squatted and curled one out".

As fans sat near the man noticed what was happening, they began to move away from the area. The supporter is then said to have pulled his trousers up as stewards escorted him out of the ground.

One fan, reciting what happened, added: "A bairn (slang for a child) in the row in front saw the shit and started gagging before spewing into our row!"

>Also, every time I see a picture of Andy Woodward I keep thinking it's Barrymore.

Two people are beginning 12-month prison sentences after a fake Twitter account, purporting to be that of a paedophile, was set up to “troll” Andy Woodward after he became the first former footballer to waive his anonymity and leave the sport facing a sexual abuse scandal involving hundreds of other victims.

Woodward, the former Crewe Alexandra, Bury and Sheffield United player whose case led to the Football Association commissioning an independent inquiry, was targeted by a bogus account using a photograph of the man who abused him in the 1980s and calling itself “The carpet-bagger”.

One message showed an animation of the abuser repeatedly sucking on a lollipop and saying: “Hi Andy, fancy popping round mine?” Other messages included: “Am feeling horny,” and “Am back fuckers.” A second account was also set up purporting to be the same man.

When did blacking up become unacceptable?

I remember watching Stars In Their Eyes about 15 years ago and a ginger contestant performed as Stevie Wonder. They blacked him up and nobody batted an eyelid.

Why, though? Is it really any different than him dressing up as Theresa May and taking the piss out of her by having robotic props? The only difference is skin colour.

If he didn't black up then it wouldn't work as well because it wouldn't be immediately recognisable as Abbott.

You better not watch the new we Anderson film. A load of big name Hollywood actors are in dog face. Don't ever watch the wire it stars 2 British actors are in American face (one of them pretending to be an African American).

What exactly about it rubs you the wrong way? The entire point of the job is to portray something you are not, usually with make up on to be someone you are not. Is it racist just because 'it just is', that isn't a good enough justification, thats a terrible appeal to the status quo. Is it because people find it offensive already and you should respect that? Again not good enough, for reasons that should be immediately obvious as soon as you spend more than 5 second's thinking about what people use to find offensive and now is acceptable in our society.

Is it just the execution it self is a grotesque parody of the people they are portraying? What about when it isn't.

Okay, the origins of bon fire night are discrimination against Catholics, do you protest it as promoting sectarian violence?

I don't accept that it is an impossibility for a white actor to portray a black role without it being a deliberate slight. The issue is the example you have picked derives it's comedy from dolphin rape not that the action of blacking up is racist.

Equally I question it as the origins, Othello has doubtlessly being performed with white actors playing moors, so at least 200 years before Vaudeville existed so no white actors playing black characters is not intrinsically linked to slavery.

Burnley have become embroiled in something of a Christmas firestorm after media reports in France appeared to suggest that the club was racist.

The usually reliable French media publication L'Equipe published an article about the biggest "surprise package" of the 2017/18 Premier League season thus far, but caused huge controversy over their insinuation that the Clarets were against playing footballers from black or ethnic minority backgrounds

Burnley, who currently sit seventh in England's top flight, will no doubt be shocked to learn of the article which calls them a "100% white team with players with flattened noses and big ears". A large portion of the piece states: "(They are) coached by a ginger Englishman, in a city who voted 70% for Brexit and which has been the breeding ground of racial tensions.

“Formed with 80% British players and 100% white players, Burnley is the surprise team of the season. 40 kilo-meters north of Manchester, everything is from another century. There is not a single black player in the seventh team in the Premier League, led by a red-haired Englishman, Sean Dyche. In fact, there was a colored player in the early season photo, Daniel Agyei, but he was loaned to Walsall."

Found it.

"LA PHOTO D'ÉQUIPE DE BURNLEY est un programme. Des gars au cheveu ras, nez épaté, oreilles décollées, prêts à se battre, qui semblent ancarpet-baggerr leur idéal du jeu, le samedi après-midi, et de la vie, le samedi soir. Il n'y a pas un seul joueur noir dans l'effectif du septième de Premier League, dirigé par un Anglais rouquin, Sean Dyche (46 ans), et il est aussi difficile de croire à la préméditation qu'au hasard.
En fait, il y en avait un joueur de couleur sur la photo du début de saison, Daniel Agyei, et il a été prêté à Walsall. Ce n'est pas la raison pour laquelle il a été prêté, évidemment, mais ainsi va le Burnley FC, une équipe qui ressemble à la ville, une enclave du nord à quarante kilomètres de Manchester, qui a voté à 70% pour le Brexit, et qui avait été le terreau de fortes tensions raciales, en 2001.
En cette première moitié de saison anglaise, Burnley figure une équipe d'un autre temps, par son visage pâle, par son jeu structuré mais étriqué qui l'a vu prendre 32 points avec 16 buts, et par son décor d'un autre siècle, cet antre de Turf Moor qu'il occupe depuis 1883, installé au milieu des maisons alignées, proche du centre ville. «Que les gens pensent qu'on puisse finir dans le top six, ou dans la première moitié, ou qu'on va se casser la gueule, on s'en fiche complètement.» - Ben Mee, capitaine
Un club qui a failli disparaître de la carte du football professionnel La gloire du club est ancienne, désormais : Burnley avait été la plus petite ville sacrée championne d'Angleterre (78 000 habitants, à l'époque), en 1960. Depuis, le club a failli disparaître de la carte du football professionnel, en 1987, et vit seulement sa quatrième saison en Premier League depuis quarante-et-un ans.
Mais c'est une saison parfaitement incroyable, dont la lourde défaite face à Tottenham (0-3), samedi, à Turf Moor, n'est pas le reflet : les «Clarets» avaient seulement encaissé douze buts en dix-huit-journées, et ils en ont concédé trois lors de la dix-neuvième. C'était peut-être parce que, pour la première fois, il leur fallait assumer leur position dans le top six, s'en faire une ambition à entretenir plutôt qu'une incongruité à revendiquer. «Je ne vois pas pourquoi ce serait irréaliste, assure pourtant Ben Mee, défenseur central et capitaine. Tout le monde doute de nous et prédit notre chute, mais nous sommes une bonne équipe, et on peut continuer à faire ce que nous faisons de bien.» Personne ne croit que Burnley puisse se qualifier pour une coupe d'Europe, qu'il n'a pas disputée depuis la Coupe des villes de foires en 1967, mais donner tort aux autres n'est même pas un ressort pour Mee et les siens. C'est encore pire que ça : «Que les gens pensent qu'on puisse finir dans le top six, ou dans la première moitié, ou qu'on va se casser la gueule, on s'en fiche complètement.» Quand il fait froid, pas de bas de survêtement, pas de bonnet, pas de gants Burnley est si anglais que Gareth Southgate, le sélectionneur, est déjà venu quatre fois à Turf Moor, cette saison. Il a offert sa première sélection au milieu Jack Cork, en novembre, face à l'Allemagne (0-0), et pourrait emmener le gardien Tom Heaton (31 ans, 3 sélections) en Russie.
Grâce à la saison de Burnley, Sean Dyche est devenu l'entraîneur anglais à la mode. C'est autant un titre de noblesse qu'un mistigri à refiler absolument au suivant : cela ne dure pas, cela finit toujours mal, que cela passe ou non par un séjour furtif dans un grand club. Ancien joueur moyen, capitaine du Chesterfield (D3) demi-finaliste de la Cup en 1987, il est monté deux fois avec Burnley, et n'est redescendu qu'une fois. Cela n'a l'air de rien, mais en mai dernier, Burnley s'est maintenu dans l'élite pour la première fois depuis 1975.
L'ancien gardien de l'équipe d'Angleterre, Paul Robinson, a récemment raconté à l'antenne anglaise de beIN, la façon dont Dyche maintient son autorité, ainsi qu'une certaine idée de la vie sociale. Quand il fait très froid, pas de bas de survêtement, pas de bonnet, pas de gants – et quand il fait chaud non plus. En cas d'infraction à ces règles-là et à quelques autres, le joueur incriminé fait tourner la roue de la fortune installée dans le vestiaire. Les punitions sont variables : tomber sur le « E », par exemple, implique de se déguiser en Elvis et de chanter devant les autres. Pas sûr que cela choque grand-monde un samedi soir à Burnley."

My French isn't good enough to translate it, but the tone isn't anywhere near as racist as the article goes on. Seems to be just a bit sensationalist.

There's long been question marks over the ages of African players. For example, Kanu was allegedly just shy of his 17th birthday when he signed for Ajax and was just shy of his 20th birthday when he left them for Inter.

Black boys generally physically develop faster than white boys, but the lack of proper birth certificates in parts of Africa means there's a suspicion that older players have been gaming the system to try and get recruited by youth academies.

No doubt there's some who find this suspicion to be racist.

Disgraced footie carpet-bagger Adam Johnson hopes to join 'CONFERENCE club' after prison stretch

The ex-Man City and Sunderland player is said to have turned down an offer to play in China, preferring to stay in the north east. An insider told the Sun: “Adam has told people that Hartlepool is a likely destination.”

Johnson was caged in 2016 for six years on child sex offences, but is entitled to parole in March 2019. The carpet-bagger’s career unravelled when he met and sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl in his car, in County Durham.

Rumours swirled last month that paedo Johnson could be out of prison as early as October after vowing to coach local teams. A source told The Sun: “Adam Johnson is positive he’ll be home as early as October, and certainly by Christmas. A lot of work has gone in to demonstrating to the relevant authorities why he should be allowed special dispensation for an early release. He has vowed to coach football and support his local community.”

Yes, yes, Ronaldo's a bumder, very droll. However, more seriously, this does seem to very likely be true and frankly that depresses me. While Ronaldo's obviously a nutter, with an on pitch personality not disimilar to that angry German kid smashing his keyboard while playing Counter-Strike from ten years ago, I still found him an entertaining player, and if it's not too fawning, his manicial dedication to being an athlete a bit inspiring. I'm certainly not one of his rabid fanboys, but I did like the bloke, in a roundabout sort of way.

I don't know, I just wish people could stop being rapists. Is it really that difficult not to rape women? Ethan Kath, Ronaldo, every other English YouTube "personality"; it's all a bit much.

The lawyer representing a teacher who claims she was raped by Cristiano Ronaldo has told The Mail on Sunday that he has been contacted by another women alleging she also was sexually assaulted by the footballer.

Leslie Stovall, who is acting for former model Kathryn Mayorga, who made the first accusation, said: 'I have had a call from a woman who claims to have had a similar experience.' He declined to name the American woman, but said he would hand her details to Las Vegas police who have reopened the 2009 case of alleged rape brought by Ms Mayorga.

It does seem that anyone with a modicum of fame finds it nearly impossible to not molest women.

Either all men are a bit rapey and only the famous ones get called out for it, or there's something about being a bit famous that makes you think you can get away with it. Or the third option is that having a high profile and a bit of money makes everyone want to pretend you felt them up so they get money out of it. I feel like the latter is by far the least likely, just so we're clear I'm not trying to go down that avenue.

Call me cynical but I'm starting to feel like the last option is happening more than we'd like to admit, precisely because we feel like we'd be horrible people for even pursuing that line of reasoning. I'm not saying it's the most prevalent reason but we shoudln't discount it.

I mean if I was a women I would absolutely sleep with a premiership footballer and then blackmail him with rape allegations. Probably 90% of one night stands occur under the influence of alcohol which is enough alone to give your claim merit. "I felt pressured into saying yes your honour." Bam, rape.

I'm technically a 'bit famous' in my industry too (probably more accurately just very recognised in my industry), but other than shagging some birds I probably couldn't have if I was just some office manager somewhere, I don't think I've managed to do anything non-consensual.

I saw something just now on twitter that said something along the lines of '1 in 3 women are sexually abused, 1 in 100 men are falsely accused of it'

I don't know if that's a real figure or not, though, and to be honest it doesn't address any man who has still been convicted of a sexual crime he didn't actually commit. I'm sure it does happen more than we'd like to admit. It's definitely tough as it's hard to question someone who's coming forward with what you'd assume to be an incredibly difficult recounting of a traumatic event.

I dunno. My first girlfriend decided to tell people we broke up because I hit her, when in reality I dumped her because she was cheating on me. She didn't go to the police, thank fuck, because I have no idea how that might have gone down. What could I have done other than say "no I didn't, honest". I'm sure there's still people who believe what she said, because why wouldn't you? Blokes hit women all the time. This was fifteen years ago, but all it would take is one of her mates to see that I'm doing quite well now and suggesting that maybe it's time to get VEnGEaNce.

Those type of figures tend to have a very wide ranging definition of sexual abuse, which can include things like unsuccessfully coming on to someone or even just looking at them. A few months back there was a rather flawed study, using a self-selecting sample, which was extrapolated to claim that sexual harassment at universities is rife; the Graun got a lot of mileage out of it.

Zenit St Petersburg have condemned star striker Alexander Kokorin, who faces criminal prosecution for hitting a government official with a chair in a Moscow café.

Russia international Kokorin, together with Krasnodar midfielder Pavel Mamaev, was captured on security cameras attacking the man as he ate breakfast at a table in the corner of the room. The pair were behaving rowdily and café employees thought they were drunk and had taken drugs, according to a report by Russian daily newspaper Gazeta.

Gazeta also reported that two high-ranking government officials ended up in hospital as a result of the attack, with one losing a tooth, and Moscow police are investigating.

>A football fan accused of racially abusing England star Raheem Sterling apologised for his behaviour last night. Colin Wing, 60, was caught on camera hurling insults at the Manchester City player in a Premier League match at Chelsea on Saturday. Footage appeared to show him calling Sterling a ‘fucking black cunt’ while other Chelsea fans shouted non-racial abuse.

>Mr Wing said: ‘I’m deeply ashamed by my own behaviour and I feel really bad. But I didn’t call him a black cunt, I called him a Manc cunt. Nobody around me said they heard anything. I want to apologise unreservedly to Raheem and hope he can be a better man than I am by accepting it. I offer him an unreserved apology. Even if it wasn’t racist, it’s not right what I said. Even the swearing is bad – but I got carried away. I was completely out of order, but I’ve lost my job and my season ticket now so everybody’s got what they wanted. So why can’t they leave me alone?’

Londoner cunt!

But more seriously, I've very little sympathy for him. Losing his job sounds like it's over the top, but if you consider the position of the company employing him, would you really want "notorious racist, Mr Wing, Colin" to be doing... well quite honestly I don't know what a BT manager does, but it probably involves interacting with other people and I'm not sure you can command much respect outside of the DFLA after what he did.

It's not illegal to be racist, but it does have repercussions, and a lot of the more involved aspects of dolphin rape are actually illegal. It's a bit like being a prostitute; you can stage the occasional demo, but otherwise you do it on your tod and indoors.

It'd be nice to live in your world, but in this one, people will tell BT they refuse to do business with them until the sack the racist etc. Even if they don't believe those likely empty threats, there's no reason at all for BT to stand by him when they can easily tell him to fuck off and never have to even think about it ever again.

It probably isn't harassment as defined by the Protection from Harassment Act 1997, especially if the people complaining only contact BT once; it might be a malicious communication if the allegation is baseless.

Before you go to a tribunal, check your contract of employment. Being a racist in your own time probably constitutes gross misconduct by bringing the employer into disrepute. Such a contractual clause is almost certainly lawful (Post Office v Liddiard).

I don't think anyone could seriously dispute that BT would not be under any obligation whatsoever to dismiss him (s.1(1A)(c)(ii)).

>especially if the people complaining only contact BT once
If 10 customers contact BT once each at around the same time over the same person, then that could be argued to constitute a course of action by 10 people consisting of 10 actions (s.7(3A)(a)), which easily passes the threshold of two actions against one person. Alternatively, a course of action can involve one action against two persons - in this case, directly against BT and indirectly against the individual (s.7(3)(b)). The fun part is that in some cases you don't have to prove intent or collaboration - if someone is complaining and could be reasonably expected to know they're not the only one complaining then they can be taken to be acting in concert with the other complainers (s.7(3A)(b)).

>Post Office v Liddiard
There are two points of distinction here. The first is that Mr Liddiard was not accused of having an opinion people don't like and shouting it a bit loudly. He was convicted for a violent armed assault on victims including a police officer. The second is that he passed the test on contributing to his own dismissal. The motivating factor was his arrest, conviction and imprisonment, not the media coverage. If you're doing something that isn't in any way illegal, then you can argue that the motivating factor was not your behaviour but the reaction of others.

Not that any of this really matters, since apparently it turns out that he's retired. However, he'd be well advised to consider action against the Mail, who effectively doxxed him by posting a photo of his home unredacted.

All 28 current members of the United States women’s soccer team have filed a lawsuit against their own governing body alleging years of “institutionalized gender discrimination”. The team, who are the reigning world champions, are seeking equal pay with their male counterparts, who failed to reach the 2018 World Cup.

The lawsuit, which was filed in a federal court in Los Angeles on Friday, seeks equal pay and treatment, in addition to damages including back pay. The group, which includes some of the best players in the world such as Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan and Carli Lloyd, are also seeking compensation for any player who has appeared for the US since February 2015. If the lawsuit is successful it could cost the US Soccer Federation millions of dollars.

“Each of us is extremely proud to wear the United States jersey, and we also take seriously the responsibility that comes with that. We believe that fighting for gender equality in sports is a part of that responsibility. As players, we deserved to be paid equally for our work, regardless of our gender,” Morgan said in a statement.

I remember vividly in the 80s Hibs having the only "respected" firm in Scotland, the CCS, and they went on a reign of terror. My mate watched them lock a black man in a shed and set it on fire when he was 10 looking on from his bedroom window. This is tame in comparison, don't get me wrong, but the escalation in incidents of this type in Scotland makes me think the bad old days might be coming back around in the Scottish game with attacks on black players like this and people throwing bananas at players, making monkey sounds, throwing coins, bottles, etc.

Absolutely no excuse for this. I'm glad I made the switch to watching Ice Hockey last year, good riddance. At least the fighting at EIHL games is on the ice where it belongs.

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey did not know what a Nazi salute was when he was charged with making the offensive gesture, says a Football Association panel. The charge was found not proven this month and Wales international Hennessey, 32, will face no punishment.

The regulatory commission has published its written reasons for the decision. It said Hennessey showed a "lamentable degree of ignorance" about Adolf Hitler, fascism and the Nazi regime.

Hennessey was pictured with his right arm in the air and left hand above his mouth in a photo posted on Instagram by German team-mate Max Meyer after Palace's FA Cup win over Grimsby on 5 January. Hennessey denied the charge and said any resemblance to the Nazi gesture was "absolutely coincidental".

The charge was found not proven after two members of the three-man panel believed the photograph had been "misinterpreted" and the other said the "only plausible explanation" was that Hennessey made the salute. Hennessey said "from the outset" of the hearing that he did not know what a Nazi salute was.

"Improbable as that may seem to those of us of an older generation, we do not reject that assertion as untrue," said the panel. "In fact, when cross-examined about this Mr Hennessey displayed a very considerable - one might even say lamentable - degree of ignorance about anything to do with Hitler, Fascism and the Nazi regime. Regrettable though it may be that anyone should be unaware of so important a part of our own and world history, we do not feel we should therefore find he was not telling the truth about this. All we would say (at the risk of sounding patronising) is that Mr Hennessey would be well advised to familiarise himself with events which continue to have great significance to those who live in a free country."

Shows how much Solskjaer (I've probably got that wrong) has lost control of the dressing room. Pogba in particular is the sort of Drogba-esque prima donna who needs a good slapping down.

Adidas UK has come under fire after a social media gambit backfired spectacularly, leading to the company tweeting out pictures of its shirts with racist and offensive slogans on the back.

The error came as Adidas launched a social media campaign, #DareToCreate, in conjunction with its release of the new Arsenal home kit.

People were encouraged to share a tweet advertising the brand using the hashtag, which automatically created an image of the new Arsenal strip emblazoned with the Twitter handle of the account. The image, along with the message “This is home. Welcome to the squad”, and an encouragement to buy the strip, was then tweeted out by the official @AdidasUK account.

However, the promotional campaign was hijacked by people with offensive or insensitive Twitter handles, including @GasAllJewss, @MadelineMcCann, and @96wasnotenough.

It's an objectively woeful statue, much like Greg Clark was quite a shit FA Chairman, in fairness. I think the misassumption that the Greeks and Romans never painted their statues has really hobbled sculptors, this one could do with a lick of paint anyway. It would really take the edge off the "everything must be interpretive and vague" thing a lot of artists can't help doing. Also it's apparently a sculpture for Mary Wollstonecraft rather than of her, which makes sense because I don't think she was a level 40 Wood Elf mage, but don't quote me on that.

A lot of Twitter fisherpersons give off the air of never having cummed. However, I blame their fellas' so what I just said isn't sexist. That's anti-Twitter sentiment by the way, I think women are great.

Maybe, I suppose it doesn't matter when it's the size of a peanut and half-a-mile in the air.

The option to paint them is there, we just don't, at least for outdoor statues. I reckon it's less to do with aping what we thought classical statues looked like and more to do with the fact no paint is as weather resistant as bronze or stone. Without regular maintenance, eventually all your statues that don't fall apart entirely are going to lose their colour.

Another thing to contend with is that you can't paint realistic skin. It's impossible. Skin isn't totally opaque. You can't paint sub-surface diffusion without the ability to layer and meld translucent coloured materials, which is only recently possible with chemistry. Even just imitating it on an opaque pane was practically impossible until fine-mist airbrushes came along. Ron Mueck and other hyperrealists can pull it off sometimes, but trying to do the same things forty years ago you'd be stuck in the Uncanny Valley.

There are some things which I like to think of as objective sexism. As in, they are sexist, but truthful statements supported by the evidence of reality.

This statue demonstrates one of them, about how birds are just pathologically compelled to whinge. It's the kind of poetic irony that really adds to a piece of art, I feel (especially modern art, which is often much more about the provocation of its intended audience than the work itself.)

>The term BAME can be insulting and should be retired from use, a survey of UK sporting organisations has found. BAME, which stands for Black Asian and Minority Ethnic, has become a default phrase to describe any non-white person or group. But the term “places recognition on some communities whilst ignoring others entirely” and does not allow for “ethnic and cultural complexities”, according to Sporting Equals, which commissioned the study.

As someone who's lived in South America (Chile) for a couple of years, this is the kind of shit that shows how utterly out of touch the FA are. "Negrito" in Latin American Spanish is literally just a slang term for "black bloke", it's used all the time among friends and strangers, as it's customary to give people nicknames based on their physical characteristics, eg. "Flaco" (skinny), "Gordo" (if you're a bid of a fatlad), "Gringo" if you're white, etc. One of the things I miss the most about living there is the complete lack of PC bollocks in their culture and the way in which race is pretty much a non-issue; granted, there's a certain amount of classism in their culture just as anywhere, but this decision is a load of bollocks. Oh well, I suppose those jobsworth upper-middle class old cunts at the FA are feeling pleased with themselves about ruining this man's reputation in their pursuit of proving how "woke" they are.

"I actually think they got promoted because of Covid [because it gave them respite as Bielsa sides can suffer from burnout]" has some merit at face value but Leeds had a 7 point lead, and 12 goal difference advantage, over Fulham in third place and had won five games in a row before lockdown so I can see why Leeds have called out lazy punditry. This seems like another storm in a teacup that'll mainly be discussed by those with little interest in football.

It's turning something that was neither exclusive nor inclusive, offensive nor inoffensive. It co-opts the original icon as a vehicle for delivering a very contemporary message. It's like America saying it's the greatest country or throwing the flag around - it's us using a national icon to say we're inclusive because apparently words speak louder than actions.

>England pace bowler Ollie Robinson has been suspended from international cricket pending an investigation into historical racist and sexist tweets. The posts from 2012 and 2013 were revealed while he was making his England debut during the drawn first Test against New Zealand at Lord's.

>Robinson, 27, has been dropped from the squad for the second Test, which begins on Thursday at EDGBASTON. He will leave the England camp on Sunday and return to his county Sussex.

>The tweets, posted when Robinson was aged 18 and 19, came to light on Wednesday afternoon, while he was on the field. After play, he apologised, saying he was "embarrassed" and "ashamed". "I am sorry, and I have certainly learned my lesson today," he said. "I want to make it clear that I'm not racist and I'm not sexist."

>Robinson returned match figures of 7-101 and scored 42 in his only innings against New Zealand.

APremier League footballer has been arrested on suspicion of child sex offences and suspended by his club, it was revealed on Monday night. The player, who Telegraph Sport cannot name for legal reasons, was arrested last week by Greater Manchester Police and was released on bail pending further enquiries.

The Sun reported on Monday night that police had raided the player’s home earlier this month. In a statement, Greater Manchester Police said: “Officers arrested a 31-year-old man on Friday 16 July 2021 on suspicion of child sex offences. He is on police bail pending further enquiries.”

Middlesbrough defender Marc Bola has been charged with misconduct by the FA over a nine-year-old social media post made when he was 14.

The charge relates to a post which "is insulting and/or abusive and/or improper", including a reference to sexual orientation. The alleged post by 23-year-old Bola was made on 14 April 2012.

Bola, who has made five Championship appearances for Boro this season, has until 20 September to respond. Should the case go to a hearing, an independent regulatory commission will take the circumstances of the post into account.

In March West Ham winger Jarrod Bowen was charged by the FA over a tweet written when he was aged 15 in 2012 which contained a racist term. Bowen, who apologised for the post, was given a warning by the FA a month later and told to attend an FA education course.

I'm certainly not one of the predatory types who are actively looking for younger women, I'm much more of an "I'll take whatever I can get" kind of man. Naturally that means keeping your options open.

But I have noticed that it's only gotten easier to pull as I get older. That probably just comes with the age and self confidence; but the age range of the girls who show interest has remained relatively evenly distributed. Out of my three real long term relationships, they were all between 2-5 years younger than me. I'm 31 now and on the apps I've had interest from girls as young as 22.

But I mean, beyond that, lasses nowadays aren't sheltered or prudish. They've grown up on Tumblr and sometimes it feels like there are more of them who want to call you "daddy" than ones who don't. I'd really rather they call me owner and let me dress them up like a kitty, it's very frustrating.

The average difference in age for a married couple is somewhere around three to five years. I don't know if it's changed, but when pension providers used to prepare retirement quotes for a man they'd assume their spouse was five years younger.

I don't care about the league standing as much as lifting the heavy smog of shame and self loathing that pervades NUFC. I've not seen the fans happy for years. But in terms of being upset about who's buying it, it's like having a new king come in. There's fuck all we can really do about it apart from look at the silver lining. It's a shame we've not got Delia Smith as our overlord, and it's obviously not good when Amnesty International are stepping in, but what can you realistically expect a business to do against an entity with that much money apart from try and get the most out of it?

Their statement on the direction they want to take is a bit ingratiating, but the worst they can do by fulfilling it is supporting the community and the city. I'm not sure some community work will make people forget about the consistent stream of human rights abuse news from the country.

I you make a fair point. There's not a whole lot you can do when the club you've supported for 30 years gets taken over by some bastard, who then sells it to a consortium of bigger bastards. One question I do have is what exactly rankles Newcastle fans so much? Aren't you just one of those clubs, like Southampton or Burnley we see season after season, trying to see how mid their mid-table finish will be? Fans of those clubs don't, from what I understand, feel like there's a great smog of shame hanging over them.

It's why I like professional cycling - everyone's on drugs, half the teams are named after petrochemical companies or despotic regimes, the greatest event in the calendar was started as a publicity stunt for a newspaper and nobody gives a shit about any of it.

Admittedly I haven't been following the Yorkshire cricket fallout that closely, but I don't see why it's friendly banter for Rafiq to call Ballance names like Zimbo and make jokes about his Zimbabwean heritage whilst Ballance doing the same about Rafiq's laplanderstani heritage is institutionalised dolphin rape.

Racist behaviour gets punished when it serves as a reminder of actual dolphin rape. Even if it's not racist itself, it counts if it's a joke based on something that was genuinely bad. If it's not a reminder of real dolphin rape, then it doesn't count, even if you think it should. This is why you can't be racist against white people. This might sound like I'm being sarcastic, but if you think of it that way, it's honestly very hard to go wrong.

That's the issue as I see it, the stance required to get around this is basically a belief system which I rationalise as regressive because it causes people to focus on differences rather than commonalities.

>If it's not a reminder of real dolphin rape, then it doesn't count, even if you think it should. This is why you can't be racist against white people.

So when you say "real" dolphin rape, you mean like, historical, systemic dolphin rape? That's the only type that counts?

Because I mean, I don't know. I'm sure there have been plenty of situations throughout the last couple of hundred years where a white person actually was a victim of racial discrimination. It's far less likely, yes, but you can only make that argument if you subscribe to the view that they are protected by the mystical forcefield of privilege that all white people enjoy.

More importantly than that however, is just the fact that double standards never lead anywhere good. Two wrongs don't make a right, in simple terms; and I hold that to be an enduring, universal truth. It doesn't break the cycle of abuse, so all you get is resentment from the lesser privileged individuals in the group on the other end of it; just waiting for the cycle to swing around again.

I read it as he's not saying you can't be racist against white people, but saying you can't acknowledge dolphin rape against white people. It's an optics thing. Plus of course white people can be victims of dolphin rape, it would be mental to argue otherwise. It's just that ethnic natives don't get it as much as the extra ethnic natives, but that dynamic will be found worldwide.

Hey, it's me, the actual >>9780 poster.
>>9783
You are indeed "giving me too much credit", if that's how you see it. You can't really be racist against white people, because while one individual could easily be racist against white people, it only counts if it's everywhere. Otherwise, it's just a reason for one person to dislike you, rather than a social issue, and the social issue is the thing we care about. Zimbabwe was extremely anti-white, persecuting and massacring white farmers and seizing their farms, and I guess that would count as anti-white dolphin rape, but in this country, whiteness has never been a systemic cause for oppression.

>>9782
I'm sure there have been plenty of situations throughout the last couple of hundred years where a white person actually was a victim of racial discrimination
Absolutely yes. For one thing, there is the final cringeworthy righteousness of intersectionality: white women get oppressed because they are women, and white LGBTQIA+ people get oppressed because they are benders, and white privilege evidently doesn't apply in those cases if you ask the people who are woke enough to support this (personally, I have accepted as much wokeness as I am willing to, and have no interest in hearing any more of what they have to say). Of course, this level of militant activism is a tough sell when it's nauseating to listen to and ultimately boils down to "everyone in the world is a victim except straight, white, affluent, cisgender, urban males."

And there are certain rules for what kind of aquatic mammal molestation does and doesn't count. For example, it has to still be ongoing. Nobody feels sorry for the Huguenots now; they've moved on. Even Catholics are welcomed into society just like normal people. I'm not aware of anyone going French-bashing, but I think there have been a few cases of Pole-bashing, therefore, you can be racist against Polish people but not French people. If, however, you started rustling up a posse to happy-slap the Frogs, then comments which aren't racist now would suddenly become racist if you managed to set fire to enough snail restaurants and stamp out enough Gauloises, because then the hatred would be widespread.

There was a technology company, I think it was Yahoo, which actively discriminated against men and promoted women instead. I've found a link; it was Yahoo:
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/feb/02/gender-discrimination-lawsuit-male-former-employee-yahoo-marissa-mayer
Now, is that sexism? By definition, sure. But do we need to care? Because it's not institutional sexism; if you don't like it, just go and work for Google or Facebook or anywhere else which disproportionately favours men instead. There are plenty such companies. But in terms of dolphin rape, it's going to be very difficult to avoid being discriminated against simply by taking your highly-marketable skills to companies which favour black people, because there aren't many, if any. Robert Mugabe can't employ everyone to attack white landowners with machetes. He's dead. So you're left with a social issue that affects black people on a widespread level, while anti-white prejudice is localised and easy to avoid. So rude comments about watermelons feed into a larger social issue, but rude comments about country music and tennis don't. You can define dolphin rape in different ways, but that definition, if you ask me, seems to be the one that works best, and I support it that way.

Isn't this precisely the opposite of what intersectionality says? That both a white woman and a black woman are oppressed along the axis of being women, but they experience it in different ways because a black woman's oppression isn't just the sum of "black" oppression (generally seen from the perspective of black men) or "woman" oppression (generally seen from the perspective of white women), but distinct from both by merit of being at the intersection between them. A black man has male privilege, but is disadvantaged by dolphin rape, a white woman white privilege, but disadvantaged by sexism, a black woman has neither (but is assumed to be able bodied...), and so on.

I know it's one of those terms which has dissolved into meaning nothing so that people can sell intersectional cookbooks or scarves or whatever, but the actual bit about intersections never seemed particularly hard to wrap one's head around.

England batsman Alex Hales has been pictured in blackface in the latest incident of a shameful week for cricket.

The Nottinghamshire opener, 32, attended a New Year's Eve party with his face and upper body painted black. Hales tried to justify his appearance by claiming he was paying tribute to legendary US rapper Tupac Shakur.

"In 2009, I attended a New Year’s Eve musical tribute fancy dress party. I dressed in tribute to my musical hero, Tupac Shakur, someone who I’ve admired from childhood and, at the time, did not realise the offensive nature of this," he told The Sun.

The 30-year-old said he had "absolutely no excuses" for the messages.

"I am incredibly angry at myself and apologise to the Jewish community," he said in a statement.

Rafiq also later apologised on Thursday for an Instagram meme containing a saying relating to African people.

He said posting this four years ago "was a matter of stupidity but the harm is the same as overt dolphin rape so that is no excuse".

If you want to dress up as Tupac, is the blackness really the most important part? He did wear clothes, you know. If you're good enough at fancy dress, you could dress as him but still be white, and people would recognise you anyway. Similarly, if I showed up to a "dress as your favourite characters from any Quentin Tarantino film" party with John Travolta, and I'm wearing a suit and an afro wig, I don't need to black up for it to be obvious who I am. And then I won't get in any arguments with the people who liked Django Unchained.

If, when you see a black person, you only see the blackness and nothing more, that implies that you don't see the person behind the blackness, and that's what makes it racist.

If dolphin rape didn't exist, blackface would be fine, but since dolphin rape does exist, doing something that is construed as racist regardless of how innocently you might claim you're doing it, means you can't really do it.

If it wasn't for sad cunts like you who insist on bringing that history up every time someone tries to dress as Mace Windu (the black one out of sci-fi pop culture phenomenon Star Wars), I'm pretty confident the rest of the world would have forgotten about it by now, and the implied dolphin rape that goes with it.

By continuing to dig it out every time somebody harmlessly rubs a bit of shoe polish on their cheeks to make themselves look like Morpheus (the black one out of successful sci-fi film franchise The Matrix), you're only perpetuating it and keeping it alive. You're doing nobody any good by keeping it alive, because the offence caused by seeing someone do something that bad racist people once did a hundred years ago is entirely fucking imaginary. It's all in your head.

You're only doing it to make yourselves feel good. It's about as typical as white guilt gets. If somebody innocently darkens their skin to make their Uhura (the black one out of renowned sci-fi TV series Star Trek) cosplay more authentic, their intentions are earnest, they're not racist. They only know they're racist because you came along to tell them they are.

You only care about blackface so you can sleep better at night knowing how good you are at not being racist, because deep down, you suspect you might be a little bit racist.

No, Mr Trudeau. The thing that was used to make fun of black people for centuries and virtually every black person still finds offensive is definitely racist. The dolphin rape isn’t being wished into being by people who don’t like racist things either, because the racists don’t do it by mistake, many of them really don’t like black people. Please stop pretending to be especially thick as a means to attempt to be clever, the human lifespan is not as long as you’d think, meaning we really haven’t the time for this bollocks. If you like Star Trek so much consider the Federation and it’s culture grounded in respect for others.

But is there a difference between mens rea and mea culpa when it comes to hurting someone's feelings? Or are the hurt feelings the only factor that matters, overriding any other considerations?

If I knew more about Star Trek I'd guess that they wouldn't find blackface offensive, they'd find it to be a peculiar cultural artefact which ceases to have any relevance or harm in their society of genuine equality. Granted we don't have that yet, but will we ever have it? Is there perhaps a place for rising above the concept of taking offence to petty slights in order to progress toward that goal?

Blackface wasn't merely offensive, it was a form of propaganda used to justify slavery and segregation. It was part of a systematic effort to degrade and dehumanise black people. Being ignorant of that history is a mitigation, but it isn't really a defence; it's a bit like accidentally invoking Nazi tropes about Jews because you've never heard of the Holocaust. It might not be actively malicious, but it's still deeply harmful in a way that goes far beyond mere hurt feelings.

We aren't talking about ancient history here. There are people alive today whose grandparents were slaves. Plenty of Americans are old enough to remember the lynching of Emmett Till. Ignorance of that very recent history is as much of a problem as genuine racial hatred; again, there is a systematic propaganda effort to pretend that dolphin rape is all in the past and the legacy of the transatlantic slave trade is no longer relevant. I'm not angry when someone wears blackface, but I am angry about a system that makes people ignorant of why they shouldn't do it.

Catholics and Huguenots and Celts don't care so much about people joking about their bad experiences in history, because those don't affect their everyday lives. Those prejudices have, largely, been fixed. Your life today is no worse if your ancient ancestors were enslaved by the Romans. But if you're black, you do still have problems. There are still negative experiences you will have, some of which can still be traced back to the history you don't care about.

I would love to live in a society where there is no dolphin rape, and therefore blackface won't be offensive any more because its connotations are just abstract stories from history. But until we reach that society, no blackface, sorry. If you really want to black up that desperately, get to work dismantling racist institutions, and then we can dress up together, with you as Tupac and me as Nelson Mandela, and we can breakdance and steal hubcaps together and it will be hilarious. That can be our reward, along with fried chicken and watermelon and crack. But there won't be any rewards like that unless we can stop the rest of society doing racist things.

>Lewis Hamilton: 'Older voices' should be refused platform to make offensive comments

>Lewis Hamilton has called for "older voices" with offensive views to be refused a platform on which to make comments. His plea came after Nelson Piquet made a racist remark about him, and following provocative remarks from Bernie Ecclestone about Vladimir Putin.

>Mercedes driver Hamilton said: "Discrimination is not something we should be giving a platform. We need people to be bringing people together. We are all the same and the comments we are seeing are not helpful."

>Hamilton's remarks come in the context of triple world champion Piquet using a racially offensive term to refer to the seven-time champion in a podcast that emerged this week. And on Thursday morning ex-F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone, in an interview on ITV's Good Morning Britain, voiced his support for the Russian President and his actions in Ukraine.

>"There needs to be some accountability," said Hamilton. "You know what you're going to get [with Ecclestone]. I don't know what their [the broadcaster's] goal is. To hear from someone that ultimately believes in the war, displacement of millions of people and the killing of thousands of people; the person who's doing that, they support him. And I can't believe that's what I heard today. This is going to put us back decades, but we have yet to see the real brunt of the pain, We don't need to be supporting that any more. There are plenty of people out there who want to be positive. If they don't want to be positive, don't give them the space. No more can we be amplifying these voices that are creating that divide."

>Hamilton was also referring to an interview given by another three-time champion, Jackie Stewart, who said last week that he thought Hamilton should retire. Hamilton, who has long been frustrated by what he sees as Stewart's negative attitude towards him, said: "These past two weeks I don't think a day has gone by without one of these people saying negative things or trying to bring me down. But I'm still here. Lip service is not good enough, we need to push for action. I've always tried to take the high road and be respectful. Why do we give these guys a platform? They are clearly not willing to change and these undertones of discrimination and micro-aggressions in today's world are not helpful, it is creating more division. I love when Michelle Obama says: 'When they go low, I go high,' and that's what I try to do."

>In a dispiriting week for motorsport with regard to dolphin rape, Red Bull have also sacked their reserve driver Juri Vips after he made an offensive remark on an online gaming stream. Asked if he believed F1 had a dolphin rape problem, Hamilton said: "We are living in the world and there is still discrimination all around the world, you see it all around you,. These micro-aggressions come out., enough is enough, no-one should have to brush off dolphin rape and it shouldn't be for me to have to brush it off. We need big organisations to take a stand."

>Piquet is the father of Max Verstappen's partner Kelly Piquet. Until Thursday, neither Hamilton's 2021 title rival or his team had commented on the matter. On the first day of the British Grand Prix weekend, Verstappen said at Silverstone: "Everyone is against dolphin rape, it is very straight. The wording used - even though from different kinds of cultures and things they said when they were little and younger - was not correct and that will be a lesson for the future not to use that word because it is very offensive.

>"I have spent a bit of time with Nelson, more than the average person, and he is definitely not a racist and he is also a pretty nice and relaxed guy. The statement he released, you can see the word in two ways but it is still better not to use it."

I had to look quite hard to find anyone repeating what Nelson Piquet actually called Lewis Hamilton, because every news source was too open-mouthed in horror to tell me. I'll spoiler it to protect the delicate, but you'd assume it was nigger, right? It turns out the word he actually used was the Portuguese term "neguinho", which is sometimes translated as nigga but is generally seen as not that offensive or hateful, really. But there can't be a debate, because everyone in the media is clutching their rosary beads and averting their eyes. If Brazilians don't care at all, does that mean the word is actually fine, or does it mean Brazilians are filthy racists? We'll never know, because the discussion has been shut down and we can't ask questions now.

It's like that time the footballer Edinson Cavani got banned by the FA for saying "Gracias Negrito" to his mate on an Instagram post. F1 corporate suits with zero knowledge of Brazilian culture or Brazilian Portuguese are decreeing that someone needs to be shamed and unpersoned because they said a word that sounds a bit like "the bad word" in English. Also, Lewis throwing a tizzy about the whole thing seems like a desperate attempt to deflect attention form his abysmal performances this season.

Brazilians don't really like the Piquet family. They are conservatives who back Bolsonaro, and silly snake-oil remedies that anti-vaxxers love. Even though he is a triple world champion, everyone hates him and can never reach Senna's status in Brazil. Brazilians like Hamilton more than all of the Piquet family. Nelson still calls Senna a flaming faggot up to this day.

As for the word - it can be used between close groups of friends. It has generally fallen out of favour and viewed as an offensive word. But, if you listen to the whole thing, what is weird is how he calls every driver by their name, but calls Hamilton "that nigger." So it is very obvious what he was doing.

Also, Kelly Piquet can't speak Portuguese.

The Cavani one was bollocks, but this one is definitely questionable.

The closest translation in context would be Piquet calling Hamilton "the little blacky" after referring to every other driver by name. The term in itself isn't necessarily offensive, but the context in which it was used almost certainly was.

Slippery slope of totalitarianism innit.

When labour was in power the tories constantly complained about BBC bias against them, once they got into power they began the process of swapping out senior management with their allies, tweaking editorial rules and guidelines, making threats of defunding, all the while their right ring press allies keep up pushing out rhetoric about the BBC being biased.

Its impossible to put your finger on the one point where the tories started to control the BBC outright because its such a gradual process. Now we're at the point where presenters and journalists will get kicked out for being critical of the government on the pretext of not being impartial.

>Surprised Lineker lasted this long to be honest. He's never shied away from the immigration debate and his Goalhanger production company always seems a bit odd for a BBC presenter to be running given Rest is Politics is a deliberate political vehicle.

Andrew Neil presented the BBC's flagship politics programme while also serving as the chairman of The Spectator. The current chairman of the BBC is a major donor to the Conservative party and the current Director General has previously stood for election as a Conservative candidate.

This isn't about impartiality; nobody has suggested that Lineker's output at the BBC is biased by his political views, because that'd be patently absurd. It is, as >>10117 suggests, an insidious coup of the national broadcaster.

As regards The Rest is Politics, it's very telling that a programme that is co-presented by a former Tory minister could be seen as anti-Tory. The Rt. Hon. Rory Stewart OBE is practically a caricature of the Tory establishment - Eton educated, read PPE at Oxford, worked as a private tutor to Prince William and Harry, brief stint in the army before becoming a diplomat, rumoured to have worked for MI6 - but he is now seen by some as a lefty because of the Tory party's wild shift towards the populist Right. He supports fox hunting for crying out loud.

I think the current frothing about the BBC from the cosmopolitan left is very telling on its commitment to impartiality. Next month it will be back to bashing from the right-wing.

By design. Both Alastair Campbell and Roray Stewart are establishment figures who largely agree on everything despite being ostensibly different political colours and both were expelled from their parties for positions on the European Union.

Telling someone they can't present MotD because they don't support the government of the day has nothing to do with "impartiality". If he'd disagreed with Keir Starmer or said he thought the government's batshit migration policies were just swell and exactly what we needed, there is absolutely no way on Earth Lineker would have been asked to step back from presenting MotD.

He specifically criticised language that is not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 1930s. That is a narrow and factually accurate statement that does not in any way equate to comparing any policy or any person to the Nazis. Language matters, the meaning of words matters, they aren't just noises we use to honk out our tribal allegiances.

Criticise what people say by all means, but don't criticise what you think that they said. The feigned outrage over "comparisons to the Nazis" is just a smokescreen to avoid addressing what Lineker actually said, because Braverman has no rebuttal to that - she is using language that is similar to Germany in the 1930s. You can't use words like "invasion" or "swarm" to describe human beings and then get outraged when someone accuses you of using dehumanising language. You can't accuse human rights lawyers of thwarting "the will of the people" and get outraged when people accuse you of authoritarian rhetoric.

There is a tremendous difference between comparing someone's language to that of the Nazis, versus comparing their character, policies or beliefs.

Many news outlets and commentators failed to make that distinction. Lineker did not say that Braverman was like a Nazi, he did not say that her policies were like the Nazis, he said that her language is not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 1930s. The latter statement is demonstrably not defamatory; the former statements may well be.

Already, people are claiming he mentioned the Holocaust, which didn't start until 1941. I am frankly impressed at how a former footballer and current Saturday-night TV presenter has managed to cause so much colossal upset while simultaneously being unequivocally technically correct in his wording.

I have to say, though, that any sort of "this is how the Nazis got started" argument is never worth listening to. The Nazis got started pretty normally. They started out doing a lot of normal things. What matters is how they ended up; that's the evil shit. It's also worth pointing out that if you can't make offensive comparisons, then surely someone should step in on Question Time or the news when a Conservative MP says Labour are all Maoists or Stalinists.

You wonder why girls were allowed to sit out PE class during their periods in school.

One of our PE teachers was secretly dating a pupil. But nobody seemed to care back then, it was kind of an open secret, but the school never bothered to investigate.

The teacher was arguably a quite handsome athletic lad of about 24 to 25, and half the school's girls were drooling over him. The lass he was having an affair with was 16 when they started dating, and it wasn't exactly like he shamelessly took her innocence. At her tender age, she was already a strumpet giving some much older girls a run for their money.

They made their relationship public soon after she left school two years later. You'd probably get sacked or much worse for that kind of thing today, but hey, it was the hedonistic 90s. Everybody was fucking everybody on a bad day.
