Soft soaping me eh ?
I think we'd best leave this before there are complaints about disrupting the thread. <<<< there is no pun there.

I haven’t actually seen it, but if he was trying to separate the racism issue and Neville’s criticism of political parties (justified or not) I can see why he could have felt he needed to do that as they will have contractual issues with remaining politically balanced.
Interesting apology though
*Of course I imagine it was actually the producer in his earpiece saying he had to say it.
You're right. Apologies to all. Didn't mean to detract from a serious issue.I think we'd best leave this before there are complaints about disrupting the thread. <<<< there is no pun there.
Gary will also be ear-pieced up to the producers and will have heard it. He very cleverly asks them if they don’t agree and puts them in a tough spot.
I like how they try to shift the focus away from what Gary just says but Souness takes the conversation back to it and backs Gary up. Between the three of them, the end up attacking the main two political parties, the Premier League, the PFA, the FA and the Kick It Out/Give Racism The Red Card campaigns. Sky lawyers will have been sweating.

I liked Maureens comments about him playing on with broken ribs....I don't think Rudiger's role in this incident should be ignored. If he hadn't rolled around like a **** there might not have been any monkey chants or objects thrown.

Someone has the balls to say something and everyone starts running around flapping their little wings and clucking like a Turkey at Christmas![]()
Completely agree, and it looks like he does tooIndeed, he was only following orders, but I thought it could have been said in a different way. I guess when Neville said it, there was a bit of panic in the control room how to cover themselves.

Should try asking that fella on R. Humberside, the one up the Swanny river without a paddle.I was going to ask who Kanu is playing for now, but maybe that should be on the Transfer thread instead?
To be fair, the loveable Mr. Souness did admit error in reflection on one of his previous inflammatory indiscretions...I applaud everything said in that debate .. Neville was spot on and backed well by Souness and Cole .. and yes he is right .. the two political leaders have been subjected to accusations of racism in their party .. bout time someone stood up and said it how it is .. sky take millions out of the game .. the fa are a bunch of lily livered pussies and the government play at it .. credit to them for speaking out and saying what the majority are thinking. Get your acts together and do something rather then just posturing and trying to look like your concerned

There's an implication in what he says that his actions may well have caused a riot. I've played on the same team as 3 Turkish lads (I say lads - they are in their mid-50's ) who all say it was an extremely dangerous & provocative gesture, in hindsight he certainly recognizes. And admits.Doesn’t seem to be doing much admitting of errors. Don’t blame him, either,
