I think players that thrive on confidence will do well under closed the doors. It’s almost like a training game atmosphere so those that do well in training may do ok in games. I think players like Trez and Luiz will enjoy their football more without a crowd.
It’s an interesting one. Was Ghandi any more racist to non Hindus than say Nelson Mandela was to non black people? I know it’s an extreme example but I’m surprised by this attack on his statue to be honest.
I always thought the world loved Ghandi as he’s portrayed as a hero in the media.
Will have to try and do some more reading on this one.
For the record I don’t care about any statues. I’m just having a discussion. @snowychap you tend to know everything. Any thoughts?
Just read that Mahatma Gandhi’s statue in London was vandalised. Now he was a racist but he also did a lot (allegedly) in the struggle against British rule and oppression. Did he deserve it?
I’m not worried neither do I have a concern. I’m just asking how many statues have to be pulled down before it’s done. What’s the criteria?
im really not looking for an argument here.
Is it possible that a lot of of the prominent figures in US and Western Europe during 17-19th century might have had some sort of involvement in slavery?
Allegedly the women was pregnant and he held a gun to her. Guess its all irrelevant really. This is much bigger than George Floyd. As I said he will hopefully become an icon for change.
The video won't load for some reason but is there a possibility she's made something racial out of it even when it isn't there? I've had a debates with White British people asking if would consider living in another country if they are that upset about things here? Does that make me a racist?
George Floyd will become an icon for social justice for change. Hopefully his death wasn't in vain.
But I don't think he should be portrayed as a hero or as an angel in heaven like I've just seen. I've read he did some pretty nasty shit in his time.
Disclaimer : Its just an opinion, before anyone pounces - I'm not dismissing the whole #BLM movement.
