Similar to the tweet above.

Raheem Sterling

Proof that we continue to overlook the human side of footballers. As we watched Sterling miss two glorious chances before scoring his two goals on Saturday, we wondered whether the discussions over his composure under pressure would resurface.

And then you find out that, on the morning of the game, Sterling was subjected to a physical and verbal racist attack, and rather than criticise him for those finishes you applaud him for even having the resilience to take part in the game.

The kid is 23, for goodness sake. He’s been abused for wanting to leave a football club and he has been vilified by a section of the media that would prefer to ignore that their words and editorial stance play a part in incidents like the one on Saturday morning. The drip feeding of racially motivated treatment only emboldens those who wish to express their abhorrent views.

And now Sterling comes out the other side smelling of roses and as a key part of one of the greatest ever Premier League teams. It isn’t bias to want him to succeed and rub those mucky tabloid noses in the dirt; it’s human nature.

"Raheem Sterling hes top of league" will be sung just that little bit louder from this blue
 
Hope they find the horrible bastard and make an example of him.

Also can't we make him a song that's not just for when we are top of the league? What about in cup games, what then?
 
Read an article a while back saying in a three year period at our Carrington training base there were 96 incidents reported to police, players abused , cars spat on at the entrance, night-time vandalism and graffiti, missiles thrown over the fence towards players etc.No wonder our players have been right up for Rag games, even when we weren't at the level we are today.

Exactly, plus the players obviously read the pre derby build up in the media each year which never changes, its our pre match Pep talk.
 
can any 1 answer me this, if its on the city campus, how can any 1 get into there and why wasn't any body around to look after the players. I thought nobody could get close to the entrance there
