Just glanced over the bbc footy page, and we get some mentions, but not in a good way of course.
Apparently a west brom player has been racially abused on social media, Romaine Sawyers, which is absolutely awful, anyone found guilty of racism needs locking up in this day and age. West Brom have rightfully reported it to the police.
The thing that annoys me is when clicking to read the report, its a City player challenging him in the photo,(Gundo) and we get a mention too as the team they were playing when the incident occured. Not a lie, I hear some of you say, ok but there is no way they are not "putting us out there" in connection with this.
The bastards cant bring themselves to give us anywhere near the amount of positive football articles as they do for teams below us in the league, but as soon as there is negative association, bang!! we are linked like a shot.
This happens regularly, from covid distancing to spending to racism, its City who get presented visually. I dont care that they need more positive rag/dipper articles for their clicks, but why diss us with negativity always, why not leave us out altogether, you know, like they do when we do something good.
I dont know who has sent this racist message, and I suspect, neither do the bbc, so to offer us up subliminally like this is unforgivable.
I will reiterate my view from a similarly negative article recently, if something good had happened instead at the time we played them, we would be nowhere near the article in words or pictures.
Just seen on bbc footy that they have now arrested somebody for this, a 49 year old man from near Dudley west midlands. A lot closer to west brom than the twats at the bbc had hoped.
Dont worry though, despite this new info, we are still namechecked and represented visibly in the "updated" article.
If I can convince mrs eyes that she doesnt need to watch emmerdale live, then this bunch of outdated red dickheads can swivel for the licence money.
