There is no hate speech there.

Being critical of or not liking a person does not mean you hate the person.

Phil Jones was silly refusing to give up the shirt number he almost never wears. The club was even more silly accepting his stand.


I don’t even believe the story. Shey d guy head no correct ni?
If that story is true, I'm surprised the club even asked Jones' permission. the guy is a clown and I definitely think someone has been getting a cut in his contract renewals.
Varane will likely not demand an occupied number out of respect for the user. he doesn't pass off as that kind of character.

I mean they do insult players, even black or white players. It's normal.

What will rise to racism or hate speech is when players are called monkey, nig*gar, or when they say something like
" I hope you die in that injury, or I'll fvcking kill you or your family if you don't give up your no4 to varane "

All those one I believe is what make players rile up and shout racism or hate speech stuff"

I know it's painful (esp to Jones), but not playing consistently at top club for years, and even putting some funny disasterclass before going to this said long injury, I won't say such insult is unexpected especially with the incoming of varane.

Not in support of it tho, but just saying this insult isn't unexpected (except maybe clown is a very big insultive word that white don't joke with, same way Blacks don't joke with nigg*r or monkey)

So clown is now a good thing to tell people. I like how standards are changing.

okay o

Shey if varane no wear 4 he no go play well?

If the decision to give it up is up to him and he chooses not to, I see no problem there.

Something as trivial as a Jersey number is what you go to someones page to insult people for. These are the ones that still send monkey emojis to black players. Disgusting behavior

Lol... I didn't say it's a good thing, but there's a big difference between insult/mock and racism/hate sprech.

I am just saying we will have enough free wages to afford whatever amount his greedy agent wants.

United will be in a very strong position to negotiate his deal. Of course, Haaland isn’t worth £700k/week but with every club jostling for him, there would be a price war.

He won't been be headline next year..

It's going to be Ronaldo.

Cuz his contract expires next year June

That is really fortunate. However the posts shown earlier are not hate speech and there is no racist connotation even had Jones been black.

Furthermore Jones wife is black so if those guys were racist they would have found a way of roping her into the comments.

Countless stars and public figures receive such abuse, criticism and vitriol regularly.
Not all such treatment is hate speech or racist.

I doubt this story is true.

Unless its in Jones contract then the club decide the squad numbers.

Once a star player ask for a squad number during negotiation, that's all (Martial and Zlatan case).

Abusing Someone is now Racism? Wonder shall never end sha...... LMFAO.

I read the Screenshots countless of time and didn't see any racism in it. Did they call him pig or Donkey? When Mou forced Martial to relinquish his Number to Ibra, did Anyone tag it as Racism?

Perhaps we are racists on this Thread for calling him useless, doctor and so on?!

I said not all abuse is racist or hate speech. People exchange insults worse than that here on NL daily. Not all of it is hate speech or racist speech.

Seems you like using terms you don't understand, like accusing me of enabling behavior that i have nothing to do with. I did not defend the behavior. I simply said it is not racist and it is not hate speech.

I doubt the story is true. It makes no sense for Jones to refuse to give up a shirt number when his position in the club is not even safe. Also makes no sense for the club to accept his refusal and potentially jeopardize the transfer.
