I think it’s unfair for him to have been asked to resign. What is the difference be ‘people of colour’ used in the US without racial connotation and colored people. 1 Like |

shogsman:UK is not an all white country because of the black slaves brought there hundreds of years ago. Without slavery the UK is an all white country. You think if Nigeria/Africa was alright those Blacks will stay and not come back? |

EmekaBlue:That was why I had serious reservations about BLM, the world now feels a need to pamper black people. And such situations leads to more disrepect. Ngọzi okonjo is black, African, Nigerian and finally a woman YET she has broken boundaries in the western world without crying racism...yes racism exists but it can never hold you down if you’re a goal getter. If it weren’t so someone like Ngọzi who has all the ‘disadvantages’ of a black woman wouldn’t have gone far in life would she? |

CNN and others left work media has been calling black people "people of colour" and no one has ever accused CNN, BBC and other left media of racism. Now can someone with a free mind tell me the difference between "people of colour" and "Coloured players"? Very soon the world would run out of adjectives or names to call Africans....... Because no matter what name you call Africans it is always considered racist. You call them blacks........... Racist You call them negros........... Racist You call them niggaz............ Racist You call them Africans.......... racist You call them dark.................. Racist You call them brown................ Racist You call them people of color....... Racist You call them pale skin................ Racist You call them Nigerians.......... Racist Please can someone tell me what name that you will call a black man, that is not considered a racist Infact our very own nature as black men is racism You used a black man as a slave in a film,... And they called you a racist. Then you decide to used a black man as a slave master or master ........ And they accused you of stereotype. As a whiteman, it is very hard now adays to speak on issue of black men, because every words you used is considered racist including calling a black mans name. A white man simply chooses to be call a white man. Case close........ He doesn't disturb his already occupied mind with nonesense topic such as racism 1 Like |

EmekaBlue: You are right, some do .............. But it will be totally naive, to think that racism does not exist or some black people are not subjected to it or they dont experience it. I have seem far too many examples, to know this for a fact. |

uunwanaobong3: It is not the name that is the problem it is the CONTEXT and USAGE. You can call a 'Black' man, a 'white' man, and it would still be racist! A lot of people have no idea what racism is all about. |

Grandmeister:Exactly. If blacks keep crying and not striving like the example u gave of Ngozi...the white will capitalise on that as black weak point |

codemaniacs:How many Asians have been given opportunity to coach top team? Top team is not a testing ground, it's for tested and trusted managers which I personally without sentiment believe there's currently no Asian or black manager that can do top job If you think any exist, please mention there name |

“Football Association chairman Greg Clarke has resigned over the "unacceptable" language he used when referring to black players. Clarke said he was "deeply saddened" for the offence he had caused by using the term "coloured footballers". What is your skin color? Now-a-days, white people cannot get their message across unless they use negative words to define people. For example, Donald J. Trump, the US president called black countries shithole nations upon resuming office in 2016. And on February 2, 2018 Tony Henry—a director of player recruitment at English premier league [ West Ham United] was suspended after a report surfaced in which he said club should no longer bring west African players to the team because African players have bad attitudes. I want to know why is this so common? I write to argue that systematic divisions among black people is the culprit. Why? Growing up as a child, I used to admire two clubs in Nigeria: stationary stores football club of Lagos and Rangers International football club of Enugu, Anambra State. Every year, these two clubs would meet at the finals for a chance to win Nigeria top club trophy. They were just the best. On Saturdays, Rival supporters would dance, walk and promise victory for their side. Boy, I used to love it. Because I could not afford to buy tickets to go to the match in person, I would carry small radio with me all the time to listen to commentaries. Without a doubt, I used to think—twenty years down the road, Nigeria would have professional league which Nigerian players can play for and earn themselves good money and not worry about traveling abroad to look for similar jobs. But I was wrong. Now, twenty years have long passed and Nigeria still does not have competitive football teams that pay as much as those of European teams. As a result, Nigerian players who seek good paying teams to play for in overseas are now being subject to all forms of abuse. It should not be this way. But it is because Nigerians are too divisive to work together. 1 Like

EmekaBlue:That is why the Dems believe they own the black votes, because they understood the art of pampering the black communities. But it’s all superficial, they make them believe they care about them but it doesn’t translate to anything in their communities. |

Fooolish man. Resigning because you couldn't keep up with fickle emotional people and their virtue signaling. He just bowed to virtue signal mobs, and there is nothing courageous about what he did. These people keep changing words and language to suit their narratives and consequently control our lives... He should have his resignation speech ready for his next job because he is sure to misgender someone soon 2 Likes |
