you need to get down from that fence and make a decision one way or t'other... do you want jewell and clegg to stay or not???!!!
I can't help but wonder what FIFA/UEFA would do if this disgraceful incident happened in England....!
So basically all you're going to do is make comments on a forum that FIFA will never see, it's pointless, send them a message ffs, do something positive!!!!
In a statement on their website, the Serbian FA said: "(The) FA of Serbia absolutely refuses (sic) and denies that there were any occurrences of racism before and during the match at the stadium in Krusevac. "Making connection between the seen incident - a fight between members of the two teams - and racism has absolutely no ground and we consider it to be a total malevolence." laughable
Rather odd statement from the Serbian FA. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19976781 The racist chanting is more than clear from the videos.
****ing ****ers the lot of them, unfortunately FIFA will take their side in all of this and bury their heads in the sand again!
Former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic has begun his defence at a war crimes court in The Hague. Mr Karadzic denies 10 charges of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity during the war in the 1990s. Addressing the court, Mr Karadzic refuted the accusations and said: "Instead of being accused for the events in our civil war I should have been rewarded for all the good things I've done." He had sought peace agreements, applied humanitarian measures and honoured international law, he said. An item I put on a different thread. Believe me, and don't call me a racist or Anglophile, but many of this race of people do not see anything wrong with their behaviour. You cannot change them and expect them to behave at a football match. The old authorities wouldn't have let them get away with it. An even easier way is for England to highlight the issue by refusing to play them. If UEFA and FIFA ban us then I'm sure we can get a bit of powerful backing from other countries who have issues to align themselves with us. It's just international football FFS, Jeux sans Frontieres my arse. Its supposed to be a relief from our own internal leagues. Just like the Champions League. But now its the be all and end all of everything. Would it matter if we weren't in the WC or Euros? Not one iota. Not one jot. NCFC are never going to make the CL so I couldn't give a monkeys about that either. Leave that to the greedy buggers up North and in London.
I agree totally with the condemnation of any form of racism, and of the behaviour of the Serbian players and staff after the game. But that doesn't excuse Danny Rose's action of deliberately kicking the ball at the crowd. Jordan Henderson is quoted as saying of the Serbian team "They are international players and should behave accordingly". I agree, but it goes for the England players too. Rose should have controlled himself and avoided an action that was likely to inflame matters further. Provocation is not an excuse -- as everyone will agree when Joey Barton pleads provocation after his latest on-field assault.
But what Rose did is nothing in comparison to what Barton has done. At most kicking the ball away is a yellow card. Also Barton wasn't subjected to abuse like Rose was!
Are you having a BB? Danny Rose was being subjected to the most vile racist abuse all game and you are saying that he just has to take it! He is a human being for christs sake not sub human as the Serbs think! Unless you have been subjected to the same abuse I don't think you are in any position to condemn his actions!
this is frankly the biggest load of crap i have ever heard, did you not see serbian players puchning the lights out of our guys, yet the ref ignored that and sprinted over to Danny Rose like his life depended on it to give him a second yellow.
What a pile of ****e, are you actually being serious? You have NO idea what that young man went through, what would you suggest? Maybe his kind shouldn't play football if they can't take that sort of abuse!!! Unbeliveable comment!!!!!!!
Exacty, he is a human being, not an automaton programmed to respond with knee jerk reactions to abuse however vile. It is no good castigating the Serbians for their lack of self-control and disgraceful behaviour and then excusing our own players when they show lack of self-control themselves. This sort of double standard is precisely why the situation cannot be improved.
What is more frightening is that you actually believe this crap you're spouting! You have absolutely no idea have you!
