The Anton Ferdinand programme next Month should make interesting viewing. |  |

Micah Richards spoke about it on Monday Night Football tonight after they read out the statement, leaving out the bit about the under 18 team not being reported.
Nothing earth shattering and at one point he seemed to agree with Ferdinand that it shouldn't go on forever before then saying it should continue.
For me it's always been about choice, if the premier league think it is making a positive difference then they should continue, I'm not sure it's having the effect they were hoping for though |  | | |

We haven't been doing it since Wigan A, bar West Brom A which was on TV. |
I think that has a bearing on why Sky had a pop at us because we did the knee gesture for the live game with West Brom and expected us to do the same as Coventry was live. I just think they expect all clubs to do it for their live matches. I am sure it doesn't bother them when we don't do it for non live games like Forest in the first game.
Still a great response from the club very strong stuff. It looks like Sky are withered as Sky Sports news has just lost their pictures. |  | | |

I’ve given this some considered thought overnight and I think I may have got this wrong.
This morning I’ll be putting it to UEFA that football teams should be reduced from 11 to 10 players rather than my original suggestion of 12.
For those not familiar with prime numbers, 10 would make it considerably easier to apply the correct percentile of black to Caucasian and apply some clarity for the more woke supporters amongst us. |
I know 11 is a prime number. A prime number is a number that can be divided by two integers.
I don't know how you think that helps with your plan to get the right proportion of each race on the pitch. 3.4% of the UK population is black. So would it be better to have a team of ten and have 34% of one player be black? Or a team of eleven and 37.4% of one player be black?
Oh hang on. We could field a team of 500 and have 17 black players. That's all making sense now. |  | | |

Police are nervous because sadly they are put in a position where they are dealing with society’s spiralling problems that they aren’t trained or equipped for.
They are expected to be medics, social workers, and councillors. They are brought up through a system where the culture is to ultimately suspect everyone as being violent or criminal. Many of them have untreated PTSD from the things they’ve seen, and operate in a environment of mutual mistrust between themselves and the communities they serve. Most of the time they do not come from same ethnicity or income bracket of the people they are expected to engage with and that lack of understanding or confusion leads to the tensions we see today. The criminality of the people they deal with isn’t their fault, it’s the fault of decades worth of abandonment and vandalism from governments of all colours. [Post edited 19 Sep 2020 17:26]

This is an excellent post Bazz and its clear you have studied the issue or maybe are in the field yourself but its not the full story .I cannot speak for England,Ireland,Scotland or Wales but from the murder capital of the USA .
As I type this another bloody weekend of black on black violence's has taken place in Chicago.39 people shot with 6 dead adding to a staggering total of 544 dead and over 2200 shot so far in 2020.
No outrage or marching or protests from BLM simply because its just another weekend of murders that go unchecked .
However throw in a police shooting (justified or unjustified )and all hell breaks out with the results the world saw across the US this summer .
The police are nervous because they cannot possible do their jobs and are out on an island without the support of District Attorneys or Judges who simply release violent offenders to continue their rampage .
Of course the bad cops have contributed to the rage and there appears to be a blue wall of silence but if the communities do not step up the killing will go on in every city across the US.
England have their own issues but without the insane amount of guns on the streets the body count is low thankfully . |  | | |

Well, actually, the Quakers founded political movements like the Abstinence Association and the Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors so I think it fits.
I think you'll agree that both of those Organisations are not described as Quakerist and the majority of the participants of both are not Quaker.
Anyway, I can't say more than what NW has said and i'll bow out now before Clive's trigger finger gets frisky. [Post edited 19 Sep 2020 19:34]

Writing as a British Quaker and member of its Society of Friends, I'm impressed by your knowledge Bazza.
Just to expand on what's been written, Quakers are a faith based group who do not have any creed. Rather Quakers live out their daily lives in accordance to our core testimonies of peace, equality, simplicity and truth.
The first Quakers formed in 17th-century Civil War England and faced severe persecution until the Act of Toleration in 1689. This was due to their dissent against the established Church of England and refusal to swear an oath to the King. The Quakers were singled out as they were the only group (political or religious) formed during the Revolutionary years to outlast it. All the others were crushed.
Therefore, throughout their history Quakers have felt it a faithful duty to become politically involved and stand up for other persecuted groups and their causes.
Historically this has included black slaves, women's suffrage, Jews in WWII and more recently LGBTQ rights.
Not many things in my life are fixed. But two things are - Quakerism and QPR.

Next issue is ensuring we don't become the poster boys for a small minority of racist pricks. I mean, the state of this, for example...

With Flo Lloyd Hughes that was just as likely to be a black Rangers fan sending that as a white one.
Put it this way, she p issed off more old time, traditional black QPR fans than she realised... [Post edited 22 Sep 2020 7:27]

God knows.
With Flo it may be something ridiculous/disgraceful she said or someone still p issed off with what she said about our fans.

You know when someone says 'God knows', well that's normally a sign that they are admitting that they are speculating.

Thomas Sowell is hardly an unbiased voice in this though is he? As the Washington Post put it;
'his usual American targets: [are] liberals, academics, universities, the media and civil rights leaders, along with anything that smacks of multiculturalism or social justice' |  | | |

Correct, although I do think he's wrong.
It does mean however that he is coming from a predetermined position and his words and opinions on this subject should be treated with caution and interrogated carefully rather than thrown in and used as a defining fact. [Post edited 22 Sep 2020 9:49]

Ok. Must admit I hadn’t heard of Flo until I started listening to the podcast where the vibe I got is she’s largely let on there as background noise. For me, bit of a shame as be nice to know what she has to say, wise or otherwise, then we could all have a chance to form a clearer opinion on her.
As far as twitter goes it sounds to me that if someone is sensitive about responses then don’t use it as a medium. Get a little tired of those who bandy around the bile piled on them when the solution is staring them in the face. | | | |
