Thracian Posted 20 October 2005 Posted 20 October 2005 Sorry, I forgot that India and Pakistan et al just gave us all their natural resources so that we could become a prosperous country and they'd just be fvcked for the next few centuries (maybe forever). If you haven't got anything remotely useful to say, don't bother, there's no point in just dismissing people's ideas as bollox. Maybe you just haven't got an argument to come back with. India is showing every sign of becoming a major economy. My son has recently sub-contracted a stack of his work out to India because of the efficient results he gets. Does HE sound like a white man with a down on Asians? Of course not. And there's loads more like him. Allen's got the right idea. Start looking at everyone as people instead of colours. Suddenly life becomes naturally inclusive.
Ultra Posted 21 October 2005 Posted 21 October 2005 Start looking at everyone as people instead of colours. Suddenly life becomes naturally inclusive. Fine. Except a lot of people don't - including too many on here. Certain posters tried to distort the debate by whinging about racism towards white people. Where this exists, it should of course be condemned - but don't pretend it's anywhere near the levels dished out BY white people. In 30 years watching the FOXES I can recall literally hundreds of times where I have witnessed black players being racially abused - including, regrettably some of our own players (Mark Bright and Alan Paris spring to mind). I cannot recall ONE case of a white player receiving such treatment. As everyone knows, Leicester has a high proportion (45%) of non-white residents. Yet how many do we see at the Way? Very few. Of those that do attend, a recent survey indicated that a fifth had either suffered or witnessed racial abuse while watching the FOXES. This suggests there is a problem out there, and it needs to be tackled. Those looking for excuses not to back FOXES Against Racism do themselves, this board and our club no favours whatsoever!
