    He's still out on loan in the UAE I think? I guess West Ham are hoping his loan can be cancelled?

    Wonder why David Gold said about him, 'if I told you, you wouldn't believe it'? Doesn't seem too unbelievable to me. He's rumoured as a loan, though (infact already loaned into WHU on wiki), but David Gold tweeted a few days back that they 'already have the maximum of two loans permitted by the Premier League'.

    Don't want to make too much of it, but that's the quality of the media these days. Time was, for example, if a caption or title was incorrect a presenter would blush and apologise to the viewers and the caption would be changed ASAP. These days not a day goes by without a minor howler occurring. I suppose it's because there is so much media about. With the quantity comes an inevitable decline in quality.

    Problem is Steve Howey is white. Olivier Bernard as you can see is black. It makes it worse if you see the sign behind him.

    Yes indeed, I got the distinction. A howler on several levels there.

    Just an error....as Howey is white. Better surely than if they put up the name of a random black guy.....that would get everyone jumping up and down.

    Well it is a completely non-racist mistake - mixing up 2 black guys is far worse!

    What's going on with Swansea? are they trying to buy back everyone who ever played for them? It's something we play with on this forum, as in "what a team we would have if had all our young stars back" but Swansea seem to be trying to actually do it!

    It is taken as worse, but often done without bad intent. Apparently if you live in a country where everyone is black you pay more attention to facial appearance, but, in Europe, we take more notice of hair and eye colour. As it upsets people, it is only polite to make a big effort not to make mistakes, but I don't agree with hysteria where everyone assumes racist intent behind a genuine mistake.
