BrianW said:I'm sure it's just a total coincidence that Mario gets this shit, while such people as Rooney, Giggs, and Carroll don't. Who could possibly think otherwise?
No its not a coincidence. Its pretty simple, when watching MOTD, the basis of the football program relates to football, not extra-marital affairs, liasions with escorts, or convictions for assault. Consequently negative events in a players personal life, unless connnected with football, are not discussed nor is the player judged upon these matters.
Similarly MOTD have never mentioned Marios liaisons with an escort girl previously bedded by Rooney and quite rightly so. Nor Jermaine Pennants past indiscretions etc.
I am still waiting for clarification of the racist comments made to Mario. Offensive comments its difficult to disagree but ive heard and read similar things in relation to Mario on this forum and by City fans in real life. I wouldnt describe those comments then as racist either, just a personal opinion of a player.
