I was addressing 1 poster in that interactionThe majority of people didn't say Souness is a racist, people have pointed out that the language and the direction the criticism has taken from various people in the media, which includes Souness, has an element of underlying codified racisim to it.
This post has summerized it pretty well:
If pundits have double standards in their critism and their criticism is full of questionable substance than it's completely normal for people to assess the potential factor of racism. Yet when done, there's always the same crowd - as exhibited in this thread - that shouts "Don't bring racism into it" "Don't play the race card". Quite telling, really.
Look, you may have missed what I’m trying to lead people too. You outright call a person a racist that person can take a libel action if they are aware of it. That libel falls against Redcafe because we didn’t address it. So I’m addressing it. I actually feel like removing this whole thread now because people are jumping in with 2 feet everywhere. Again it’s not you guys that get the threatening letters, it’s the board
