That's not what it says.

Close enough, fall into the trap of racial stereotyping. How is calling a black player who is strong and fast strong and fast stereotyping, It doesn’t make any sense to me. If you comment on a black player who you had never seen as probably being strong and fast then yeah. The rest I really couldn’t give a fuck about either way but that one struck me as very silly.

Without seeing the training material you don't know the emphasis on any of that, so probably best to not make judgements based on a second hand assessment by the fucking mail.

 

Quite often these points are made in terms of needing balance. Calling out other player attributes that don't constantly reinforce a stereotypical perception. It happens already, but mainly relating to exceptional players (Henry, Sterling, Van Dijk - who seemed to surprise people for a while when they look at how pacey he actually is) so don't think it's a huge deal, but the stereotype is definitely out there so professionals should be aware of it.

There's really nothing silly about asking people who speak to audiences of millions to think before they speak and question whether they might be reinforcing stereotypes.

Nah not having it sorry, don’t get it all, who overlooks skill of black players ? Barnes had pace and power but was more noted for his skill and that was the 80s. Also disagree Mane is known for pace and power over skill. Traores pace and power is freakish so it’s very relevant to talk about that but no way is his skill overlooked. I don’t know who Antonio is so have no comment on that.

Commentators and pundits. That's the point.

To me,as somebody who hasn't watched that much of him then Traore's strengths seem to be all pace and power. Mane on the hand is a fantastically skilful player who I wouldn't really describe as powerful at all in comparison. On the bare bones this sounds stupid but as its a story from unreliable sources I will hold back on treating it as fact.

And my point is I don’t think they do

[VladimirIlyich]

If this is true,and a big if,what if a black pundit describes a black player as having tremendous pace and power? Isn't he/she just describing two of the biggest assets any professional footballer can have?

I'm on a 12 hour ban for telling a racist to go and punch a wall (he reported it as infighting self-harm the little fanny) but when I'm back later I'm going to call him a cunt

That’s a euphemism, I assume?

Important to remember that nobody was actually listening to his music before he decided it was cancelled.

As an aside the Richard Herring podcast with Rebecca Front is very good. She’s a right laugh.

The phrase "fuck off and die" is useful if you want a ban.

Pretty much everything she has ever done  (at least, the stuff I've seen) has been good.

That Laurence Fox has got a paypal link on his Twitter where you can just give him money, fuck is all that about? Is he claiming cancel culture has extended to all forms of work and he can no longer find employment anywhere? Or is he in fact, just a bum?

He the usual grifter. Small amount of social media fame and they go for the Patreon/ donations for 'support', i.e. free money.
