LFEE Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I agree with Altamullan. I asked on here a few weeks ago for a summary of what he’s been accused of actually doing and got nothing back. The little bits that I see quoted seem ambiguous in particular “You lot...” as to me that’s just an older person talking to a group of younger people.

Heake Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Because if he's definitely said it, thinking there's any other meaning to "you lot should be good at this" in that situation is just ridiculous. If that was genuinely said & aimed at just Black lads, its at best unbelievably naïve & at worst just plain old school racism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he's said 'you lot should be good at this' specifically to the black lads at Go Ape? Again, we don't know that that's exactly what's happened, but that's what's been alleged.

Jimburst Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 If he's said that to a group of people bound by their collective race, especially if black, then it's unequivocally racist. Why say it if not to belittle a group of people? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHoob Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Bit of a comedown for quite a few of them: https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-summon-host-players-14384436 This has resulted in a huge clear out at the club’s Benton base with only Cal Roberts and Luke Charman handed new deals by the Magpies from the current batch of players out of contract. But both youngsters could be loaned out next summer with the pair requiring first team experience. Newcastle have told Tom Heardman, Ben Kitchen, Curtis Good, Stuart Findlay, Michael Newberry, Jack Hunter, Kyle Cameron and Paul Woolston have all been released. Players were called to St James’ Park this morning for a crunch meeting in which they learned their fate. Some of those players have worked their way through the Academy in the last eight or nine years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Findlay was called in today to be released? That's a canny trek after just playing for Kilmarnock yesterday. Surprised Woolston is being released. He'll be off to Sunderland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 How much of a say does Rafa have in this? Could be an indication of what lays ahead for him and us beyond next season. Also what kind of competition is this, is this new, and under 23s man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
