The fan made a point which is too sensitive for the world we live in today...let's not even pretend..most of you will take offence if foreign players are featured more than your home grown talents..heck if there are more northerners than easterners in enyimba fc there will be dissenting voices and vice versa...let's not even pretend here.

That's it. Most whites are racists. Whether they speak against it or not is just for cheap thrills. 8 out of 10 white men hate blacks. It would be better if we blacks start to live with this discrimination. I use to say that, if I was a black playing in Europe and I was racially abused, I won't be buoyed atal as a Nigerian, cos being abused is part of our lifestyle here. If u call me monkey, I'll call you white pig, even jokingly. Let's black players stop being emotional about racial abuse. It won't go in this our generation, let's start overlooking it.

You are taking it too far.

If Eyimba should have a line up of 5 Yorubas, 2 Yorubas and 3 Warri people will Igbos not complain?

Given the heat of George Floyd, this is the wrong time to make any statement even remotely related to racism. America's police departments will avoid blacks for now.

Mainz 05 have released an official statement to express their pleasure after a fan cancelled his membership with the club, after he made racist statements.

In a notice shared with the Bundesliga side, the aforementioned individual accused his club for using an excessive number of black players.

Read the former member's notice published on the club's official website.

"For several months now I have been unable to identify myself with this club (professional football),"

"I've since gotten the impression that I'm at the Africa Cup, instead of the German Bundesliga.
shame
"I know what's coming, but no - I'm not racist in any way. I resent that. But, too much is enough.

"But when the starting line-up for the past weeks has featured nine (!!!) Black players and German talents are being given fewer and fewer chances of their own, then this is no longer the club that has been near and dear to my heart over all these years."


Mainz 05 savagely replies fan: " Not every cancelled membership is a cause for concern, sometimes we're relieved."

The club described the argument as unacceptable and noted that, although they normally try to convince members against cancelling their memberships, in the current case they will not mourn his decision.

"All that matters to us, is that someone is human and that they share in our values," Mainz declared.

"Those are the kinds of people we welcome in our community.

"In light of this, we welcome your cancellation as the reasons you've given clearly prove that you do not share those values that our club is based on."

The fan, for all his racism , made a vital point.

Clubs are supposed to , at least in principle develop home grown talent first, then foreigners a distant second.

The problem is , most clubs aborad want to win, and win now, and if cheap foreign talent does it for them , they go ahead and buy cheap foreign talent, ànd development of home based suffers.

Also, clubs like Mainz provide future and current players for the German national team. Less home based players playing can impact negatively on the national team.

Finally, all these African players going abroad means our home based leagues suffer in quality

Imagine if 75% of players in your fav Nigerian Premier League club were Lebanese or Indian immigrants , while plenty Nigerian talents can't find clubs. It is not an easy thing to get used to, when immigrants seem to be getting the best of choice slots in your own country while natural-born nationals seem not to. That's why lots of white Americans voted in Trump - he promised to chase out "illegal" immigrants who were supposedly "stealing" American jobs. Even in Naija here, we quickly get furious when a "non-indigene" gets something the so-called "indigenes" want. So let's think well before calling that fan a racist; we will probably do/say worse if it were in Nigeria here.

I understand the fan's concern though...it's like white people taking over Eyinmba, who no go talk

NINE!! Nitori Oloun

Educate yourself because some of those black players have German citizenship therefore makes them as German as any other German. The league has a quota for the number of German players every club must have on their matchday squad.. it's no one's fault those white German players couldn't make the first team sheet.

In reality, what the fan said, if reverse is the case in Nigeria, there would be people who will still voice same obvious concerns. Does it not mean, by this club's definition, that those Nigerians are also racists?

Racism and tribalism are seemingly on the rise no doubt but that fan raised a genuine concern for his club as a local.
