Bernardo Silva tweet controversy

[bluemcr]

Anichebe refered to Coleman as an ‘angry Irishman’, is he implying that Coleman is angry because he’s Irish and that all Irish men are angry? I don’t really care either way, just wonder if this shows the double standards that people are judged by?

I guess an angry Nigerian would be used in the same context...

Oh well, in 200 years I may reach that number!

Keep your post count down; stop posting nonsense.

Pep should have just said; "Bernado regrets his actions as its caused animosity by displaying them to the world. He is friends with Mendy and it was a joke between friends and it should have been kept private" or something similar

Pep should have told Sky to fuck off

Disagree with my POV fair enough, I have no issue with that.

However this response really does make it laughable that you can comment on Intellect.

Anyway thanks for making the effort.

If you've said ANYTHING 'intellectual' or understanding on the matter, we'd be good.

But you haven't and doubt you will.

sterling7 on @BernardoCSilva tweet: "It’s a situation no one needs. It’s a situation between two friends, Bernardo and Mendy. I can see how some people can get touchy feely on it. I feel in that situation, Bernardo made a joke to his friend..."

"He’s not referred to his skin colour or lips. They’ve both got small heads. The most important thing he hasn’t referred to a colour. Everyone can see Mendy is a black lad, you’ve got to be proud to be black as well..."

"If someone refers to our skin colour with an image, you can’t be upset about it. We know what colour we are. It’s really sad to see someone like Bernardo be down all week about it, when it’s not inclined in that way..."

"I can understand where the criticism has come but it was no way intentional, not because they’re my teammates, it’s the way I feel. Bernardo is deeply sorry and not in the wrong for me..."

@sterling7 on how the club have handled the Bernardo Silva situation: "The club, as I always believe, would handle the situation right. The sooner the FA understand this was no way intentional or discrimination [the better]. He tried to make a joke..."

We keep getting drawn in to this. What the fuck do we pay our comms department and press office for. Raheem getting blindsided was way out of order. We are a world power in Football we really need to start acting like we are.
