I watched Bradford v Newport last night, the presenter was female and black, the two panellists were black. Sports is now dominated by colour and female presenters, and over time its getting worse. It got me wondering if diversity is the word used to nullify racism against white people, indeed, it makes racism against white people seem like a virtue when it isnt.
If we are to impose racial quotas, and i would insist on that, we must be fair, then the coloured population is about 13 per cent of all.
Im no genius in maths, but having a football panel of 100 per cent black people is not 13 per cent is it?
And im not even straying into the female presenting role, it was like asking a seamstress to present a programme on nuclear fuel. How many football league games had she played in, how many games had she watched, asking her to explain the offside rule would be interesting.
We are governed by the child like, power has gone to their heads, and they are taking the mick, if we care.

In what way do you mean that having female or ethnic minority presenters is "worse"?

Its worse in the sense that having an informed knowledgable presenter is advisable. I can see what your driving at, you are going to call me racist now, when sky sports, the BBC are racist, thats the point. Go on call me racist. Isnt diversity silly?

If someone is chosen because of his or her colour, rather than their aptitude for the job, that's a bad thing.
If someone of colour is the best for the job and gets it for that reason, that's a good thing.

I don't watch the pundit bit of any sports programmes anymore . They became a banal hour of nothingness presented by the most boring of 'experts' . Just turn on at kick off and ignore the rubbish presenters
They will soon get the message when nobody is watching

I was just asking you to clarify what you meant. You've done that, thank you. |

If someone of colour is the best for the job and gets it for that reason, that's a good thing. Exactly that. I have no objection to women pundits in principle, but the lady who used to used to manage Chelsea (I've forgotten her name) had such bad pronunciation that it detracted from the event. I don't hate her because she's a woman, I hate her because she can't talk properly. |

Absolutely, if someone is white and kicked out of their job for incompetence it's fine, if they are black it's racist and a big pay out. The race card is the reason why incompetent Black people get to keep their jobs, unlike white people, I mean if you ever need a example just say the words Diane Abbott. |

I watched the game also. Cook's header for Bradford 's first goal, and the third, a curling shot just inside the post were beauties .... I thought the game was a credit to League 2. As regard the presenter and panelists, could it just be that no white people were willing to travel into Bradford after dark for an evening kick-off ?  |

Hutchyns, i have more of an interest in lower league football, and watched the intro because of that, which is how i clicked onto the anti white shambles. Dogburger is right its boring, but can be informative in the lower leagues. The intro to the prem can be 4 hours long, with those stupid montages of goals that are a fraction of a second long, how childish is that?
Its sky filling air time. Why are Bradford in div 4, big crowds, big stadium? Something wrong there....like corruption, thats why i dont go anymore, its all bent.
