Lookers_Carl Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Sepp Blatter says there is no racism in football, and players abusing each other, by saying something which is "not very correct", should shake hands at the end of the game. Blatter I imagine the response of the footballing world would be something like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24hoursfromtulsehill Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Blatter is a racist. There. I said it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I feel direct action by the players across the world on this. They need to send a clear message of defiance to this arsehole. First thought was strike action. But there are probably far better options that take advatnage of TV coverage of football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukers1 Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Picture of Blatter hugging a black bloke clear up "misundersanding" His quote should be the start of the 4 top FA'S in the world to break away....

Matt Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 Picture of Blatter hugging a black bloke clear up "misundersanding" You have to laugh at the sharp response from FIFA's press team,you can picture it now... "quick find the one where he's hugging some token black feller. What? There isn't one?! Photoshop the :censored:er then" "NOT THAT ONE FOR :censored:S SAKE!"

rosa Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 I suppose it was inevitable, following on from his "Let the women play in more feminine clothes like they do in volleyball" and "I'd say the gays should refrain from any sexual activities in Qatar" comments. The guy's a genius. They should give him a job at the UN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Ritchie Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 What next? 'Victims of sexual assault can settle their differences with a kiss on the cheek.' How is the bloke still in a job. A high profile job all the same. ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted November 18, 2011 Author Share Posted November 18, 2011 Blatter's statement to BBC today In the full interview he said that any player guilty of racist remarks to another player on the pitch should be kicked out of the game. With this he has played all four aces, because if Terry and/or Suarez are found guilty, any action by the FA less than kicking them out of the game, will be criticised by Blatter as fudging the issue.

One extreme to the other. Kicked out of the game, where a few days ago a handshake would suffice? Now, I don't defend racism in any form but ending someone's career would be an overzealous punishment for an on-the-pitch remark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comment is probably shared by Rio Ferdinand, Gordon Taylor, etc, but Blatter is now portraying himself as the strictest possible disciplinarian when it comes to racism.

Diego_Sideburns Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) Remember when Blatter said: "Before the match and at the end of the match everyone shall shake hands and therefore also forget what has been on the field of play." At Loftus Road today, with attention on Ferdinand and Terry, both clubs agreed* to dispense with FIFA's hand-shaking ceremony prior to the game. P.S. * With the blessing of the F.A.
