The mods need to clamp down on this.
Too much racism on this forum
- Thread starter Richardson
- Start date
where?
Care to give us some links Diarra?
The bulk of comments that could be construed as racist are made in jest - I'm not laughing mind.
The mods on this board do more against racism than any other football board that i know off. We cannot however keep everyone happy as whats seen as racist remarks in one country is different in another country. So, unless you provide specific links to back up your allegations, stop whining.

Out of interest gb, would you have banned/ghosted/suspended a poster, if he'd posted a picture of Christian Karembeu and described him as a 'yardie' ?
Diarra - Check his recent posts

He is a full blooded transfer loon.... He relentlessly spams the transfer forum and hardly types more than four words at a stretch in the other forums ... contributes feck all . You mods shouldn't have let him out of newbies.

thats racist.
possibly not, id have to see the whole thread for a contextDJS said:
is yardie not more of a gangster term though?
golden_blunder said:
actually it aint, it just means you come from 'yard' I.e, Jamaica... If someone says all Jamaicans are gangstas I'm going to get mad...
ok you learn something new, but at the same time its not a racist termafrocentricity said:
not if you know what the word means....golden_blunder said:
My folks are yardies
FFS gb the originator of this thread is a WUM or more accurately a prat er and I hope this word is not construed as racist
Diarra said:
They'll do better to clamp down hard on your gonads
That would be racist.DJS said:

Shame that the Anders Svensson thread was delited. (I blame the yanks)
ps that´s racist.
golden_blunder said:
Well yeah it is, but in the context i'd described, it's clearly used in a racial manner...
Just suspended someone for a week over on the other side for doing that, and i was wondering how you'd have dealt with it here.
afrocentricity said:
It may mean that, but in this day and age, it's used to refer to jamaican gangsters.
Triads, Mafia, Yardies etc....
DJS said:
are you a mod somewhere?
the guy above said its not racist.. so i prob wouldnt have canned him for it. Its not a term ive heard used to be honest so im not 100% sure, it would probably depend on whether i thought the person was trying to goad another poster along racial lines
by you maybe... but then you know feck all as I established about a year ago. Like I said... your using the word out of context and if you actually asked someone what it meant you would know this already. FFSDJS said:

Yeah, on Koptalk.
afrocentricity said:
By me and most...
I'm going by the most commonly used context, not your mastermind 'correct' version...
Derogitory words often dont actually literally mean what they're used to mean, but that doesnt stop them being derogitory.
Feck off.

The poster in question had a history of being a twat.

Feel free.
If you're registering with a yahoo or hotmail email address, let me know though, because such registrations have been barred, so i'd have to sort it out otherwise it wont work for you.
DJS said:
thanks i might just do that
You'll probably find it a bit different to here...
Not sure how, because i post on both, but there's a slightly different atmosphere over there.
Join and see what you think.

Was just about to send this PM to DJS and edit my post
Maybe not.... fact is DJS is being a twat and KK (who is possibly his missus) will jump in and defend him now

Bit of a harsh summary afro.
I'm not disputing the actual meaning, you seem to more more about it than me.
All i was saying was that, to most people, (certainly those i come across), it's considered to be a term for a jamaican gangster. Rightly or wrongly, that IS what most people usually understand it to mean.
That's all i was saying.
Feck off
(No hard feelings).
Said my piece ... leave me alone
There's no racism here. Merely overly sensitive muppets with a penchant for all things transfer related. Way too much whining nowadays. How do these people survive in the real world?
I'm trying to be civilised here fella, i dont have any problem with you.Even though you harshly referred to me as a twat

I happen to think posters history is the critical criteria when judging such issues...
